Gael Garcia Bernal

Skeet, skeet, skeet.There's not a girl alive who has seen Y Tu Mama Tambien and NOT been overcome with lust for Gael Garcia Bernal. In Michel Gondry's Science of Sleep, Bernal portrays a character who is so heartwrenchingly insecure, it's impossible not to fall in love with him, even as you are frustrated with him. He doesn't shy away from controversial roles, such as in Almodovar's Bad Education. It doesn't hurt that he manages to be naked in a lot of his films, either. (I haven't seen The Motorcycle Diaries, but I assume Che Guevara took off his pants at some point in his life, between printing up t-shirts, right?) Anyway, he's clever, he's introspective, and he's not wearing clothes. I am SO all over that.

Leonardo DiCaprio

(3) SKEET!


How was Leonardo DiCaprio NOT up here before? After drooling over him in Titanic, he has proven to not be a teenage one-hit wonder a la "Growing Pains". Thank you "Catch Me If You Can", "The Departed" and "Blood Diamond" for giving me new and ever-changing material for my increasingly passionate Leo fantasies. Leo is the Robert Redford of our generation. His hotness is the marker of an ERA. And may we all be blessed with his hotness forever and ever. Amen.

Ewan McGregor

Skeets up for review. (But believe me, he's skeeting everywhere.)And frankly, I'm turned on. Ever since we saw Ewan McGregor getting a handjob in "Nora", we've been unable to get him out of our heads. With that creepy mustache/goatee combo, greasy hair, and the ridiculously tiny spectacles, Ewan McGregor was never dreamier than when he portrayed the alluringly perverted James Joyce. The sex wasn't bad either. (I'm just posting this to make Betty and Olivia squirm.) And who could forget those awesome white suits and rattan hats? HOT. ...Too soon?

Cillian Murphy

Aww, skeet, skeet, skeet.Ever since we saw him naked in the opening scene of 28 Days Later, we haven't been able to take our eyes off Cillian Murphy. He's fought against rage-infected zombies, the British occupants of Northern Ireland, and Batman. He's pretty much a badass, is what I am saying, although he's not above playing charmingly insecure characters, like in Intermission. Take into consideration his bright blue eyes and devastating cheekbones, and there's no resisting him.

Ryan Gosling

SKEET SKEET SKEEEET


So I haven't seen Half Nelson yet, but Ryan Gosling is just so damn attractive that I'm pretty sure the movie can't be anything less than amazing. Okay, i'm basing his skeetaliciousness solely off of the intellectual thriller, "The Notebook", but wasn't he adorable?? When my roommate spotted him with Rachel McAdams at the Dean and Deluca on University, he was extremely gracious and very willing to give her an autograph. AWWW. And even though he was born in a place ridiculously named "London, Ontario" i'm willing to overlook that. In fact, if he asked me to sleep with him, I might just let his ridiculous birth place slide.

Jason Schwartzman

Skeet skeet... skeet.
"It feels like someone's throwing marshmallows at my ass." Someone is throwing marshmallows at your ass, Jason Schwartzman, and it's me. Jason Schwartzman (henceforth being referred to as, "The Schwartz") may have unconventional good looks and some intergalactic eyebrows, but that never stopped me before (what?). Wes Anderson's darling, The Schwartz was something like 15 when he starred in Rushmore, and was the drummer for Phantom Planet (before he got way too cool to hang out with those guys, with major parts in Spun and Shopgirl). Let's not forget how he rode a unicycle in Slackers, as Cool Ethan. He's never not cool, and one of the few men that looks good with a 5 o'clock shadow. And that, my friends, is bitchin'.
Correction: So he was like 18 in Rushmore. I swear to Gob someone told me he was only 15, and whoever that was is a damn dirty liar. And besides, you're not reading this to get the facts, you're here to ogle hot men. If you wanted facts you'd be on IMDB, and we can't say enough nice things about that site.

Rivers Cuomo

Skeet, skeet, and oh my god skeet.
So, he kind of went crazy, and we won't really discuss their most recent album because I am pretending it never happened, but Rivers is still one of the smartest, sexiest, geekiest frontmen ever. He's a great performer, he has a sense of humor, and he just got a doctorate from Harvard. What's NOT to love? Also, this is probably one of the most swoon-worthy music videos of all time.

Mark Wahlberg

skeet, skeet, and thrice skeet


Okay so maybe we didn't take him seriously before (Planet of the Apes, ahem) but after The Departed, I'm pretty sure it's cool to drool over Marky Mark again. He is fucking talented, not to mention insanely good looking. He could have remained a coke-snorting model, but he instead chose a different, more skeetable path. So mazletov, Mark Wahlberg, for being a fucking hot actor.

Emile Hirsch

Skeet skeet skeet.

So maybe he's like 15 in this picture, but Emile Hirsch (now a totally legal, totally fair game adult) is really hot. From a young age he's chosen varied and sometimes risky roles in film (we'll let "Girl Next Door" slide) and always given stellar performances. From "The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys" to "Lords of Dogtown," and the new "Alpha Dog", Hirsch has displayed his versatility and talent while remaining hot as any character. And he's got green eyes. AND he can skate, well enough to look good in a movie anyway, and that's major points in my book. The end.

Local Skeet of the Week

Skeet Skeet


Okay, so this kid MIGHT be 16. But the girls of omgskeet are not ageist. Just shallow. When we spotted him during one of Dublin's many 2 second blizzards, we knew we'd found our boy. Yeah, he was with his Dad, but we'll just attribute that to his sensitive and family-oriented personality. Congratulations, Unknown Hottie, for being one of the few boys in Ireland that does not look inbred. We salute you.

Jack White

Skeet, skeet, skeet!

The most important member of indie-rock duo The White Stripes, the only person anyone remembers from The Raconteurs, and the savior of blues guitar, Jack White is talented enough to melt any girl's heart. He also gets props for his amazing music video collaborations with Michel Gondry, giving the only watchable performance in Cold Mountain, and lying in every interview he's ever given. Okay, so he got in a bar fight with that guy from The Von Bondies, but he was defending Meg's honor, and even his mug shot is sexy. Need further convincing? Watch his 2003 Grammy's performance of Seven Nation Army and Death Letter. If that doesn't do it for you, you have no soul and are probably already dead from the waist down.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt

Skeet, skeet, SKEET.


You may remember him as that girly-looking kid with long hair from "Angels in the Outfield" or the TV series "3rd Rock From the Sun", but he grew up, cut his hair, and is now really hot and in good movies. So, that's major points. He most recently starred in the modern, noir-detective film "Brick", as well as "Manic" and "Mysterious Skin". They all rule. He's a good actor in good movies. I don't care about making this well-written; he's hot and talented, that's all I have to say.

Justin Theroux

skeet skeet skeet


Although he's starred in Duplex, don't let that fool you. This man is David Lynch's gay wet dream. He speaks fluent chinese and enjoys gardening with his huge black labrador retriever. How cute is that? Plus he's mega talented, and, thanks to Charlie's Angels 2, we know he has a killer six-pack.

Michael Showalter

Skeet, skeet, skeet.Michael Showalter is the quintessential dorky nice guy, a character he's perfected in films such as Wet Hot American Summer and The Baxter. Beneath his awkward exterior, however, is a great sense of dry, absurdist humor. As one of the key players in sketch comedy shows The State and Stella, Showalter showcased his brilliant wit (as well as his huge brown eyes). Dreamy to the max.

Damon Albarn

Skeet, skeet, skeet. (3 of 3 possible skeets)Not only is Damon Albarn the adorably scruffy frontman for 90s Britpop group Blur, he's also responsible for one of the most innovative concepts in pop music ever: Gorillaz. His piercing eyes and crooked grin along with his charmingly self-effacing performances, swoon-worthy voice, and musical ingenuity making Albarn worthy of our highest score, three skeets.

It's a Social Commentary, Really

Yes, we know what skeet means. It's a verb, defined in the Urban Dictionary as: "To shoot your man juice up on ur bitch." Clearly then, a woman cannot "skeet" because she lacks "man juice" and the term could be seen as derogatory or offensive to women. Our use of the word is a way to take control away from our oppressors and into our own hands. We're empowering our gender through irony. And if history has taught us anything, use of the word "skeet" will be symbolically outlawed in New York City in about a hundred years, and musicians who use the word will not be allowed to win shitty awards.

What is Skeetworthy?

Skeetworthiness is an indefinable blend of physical attractiveness, charm, talent, sense of humor, and other qualities that elude description.

Obviously, this is a pretty subjective science. Fortunately, Alison, Olivia, and I have excellent taste, and are never wrong about anything.
