A bedraggled and scruffilicious Ed Westwick was snapped upon arrival at LAX airport here in SoCal this weekend rockin’ a pair of plum pants … which are a touch more appropriate than the lavender pants he was trying to pull off earlier this week:

This is a much better look for Ed Westwick … the lavender might be apropos for Chuck Bass but the velvet plum trousers are very Ed Westwick.

Earlier this week we saw pics of Jonathan Rhys Meyers making his way to the set of his hit Showtime series The Tudors wearing a gold filigreed Elizabethan costume … today, JRM has totes outdone himself:

Someone *must* be pranking him, right? I mean … right?!

The kids at ONTD! stumbled upon a short vid clip of the failed Buffy the Vampire Slayer animated series that was shopped around back in 2004 but was never picked up for airing. Here are a few screenshots from the short vid clip:

In the proposed animated series, all of the voices of the original castmembers were to be used (except for Sarah Michelle Gellar who has been remarkably unsupportive of all things Buffyverse since the end of the series) and the action was set back during the Sunnydale High days. I gotta say, this little vid clip from the pilot is really cute … I would’ve loved it if the show had gotten picked up … I would’ve watched, for shiz. After the jump, check out the vidclip for yourself … (more…)

So … David and I made it back home to NYC safe and sound and altho the day didn’t start out quite as hoped it would it ended up being a pretty spectacular day. Our initial plan was to visit the Petit Trianon at Versailles for a picnic near the fountains but the day was cold and rainy. I suspect that Paris was very sad that we were leaving so I cannot be that upset … here are a few pics of our last afternoon in Paris yesterday:

To be honest, we were pretty wiped out anyways so we made the most of our day. Things got so much better once we got to Charles de Gaulle airport. You may recall that we had a pretty shitty trip to London because Delta Airlines effed us over (incidentally, since David and I flew to London two weeks ago, a dead body was found in a Delta airplane … as if we needed another reason to never, ever fly them again) but Air France more than made up for it. Because our flight was overbooked, we got upgraded to Business class … here are a few pics of our luxurious digs:

We have always had great experience with Air France and this just sealed the deal … our flight home was soooo nice. People, the chairs turn into beds! It was swank :)

And so … we are home … but I have to send out much love, again, to my dear friends Steph and Alek for showing us the best time in France this week:

I cannot wait for them to get their derrieres back to LA :)

It’s time to check out the Hot Dude of the Week once again … this week, tho, it’s more like the Hot Abs of the Week since All American Guy Chad’s head is cut off … but I don’t think that anyone really minds, right?

Hot Dudes of the Week aren’t merely pretty faces you know … they are also pretty arms, thighs, buns and abs so why wouldn’t we want to focus on particular hot body part from time to time. Thank you Chad, for showing us that the Hot Dude of the Week isn’t merely the sum of his parts — we can also just lust after the specifics as well ;)
