As if Gale making People's Fall TV: New Shows' Hottest Guys list wasn't awesome enough, he also made it into AOL's Rising Stars: Fresh Faces of Fall TV 2006.

( photographic proof )

In conclusion: Gale is hot AND rising. Like cock. Amen.

Want proof how busy I've been? I haven't watched this week's Vanished yet. *cries* And I've been avoiding spoilers since 102, so I'm extra ancy to see who blows up all over Agent Kelton this week! (Seriously, there's a reason he is not part of the Bomb Squad. *BOOM*) Of course, my being smrt and not taping the right channel didn't help. So, yeah. Been downloading. *drums fingers impatiently* Meanwhile, I've been obsessing on Gale and recent Vanished articles.

Okay, see, there's this sex column, The Erogenous Zone, written by Justin Brook Taylor. And she's adding a new monthly(ish) feature: Sex Symbol Spotlight. AND GUESS WHO IS THE FIRST PROFILED -- WHY YES THAT WOULD BE OUR V. OWN PANSY-NAMED GALEFACE THANK YOU V. MUCH. *fondles bluebirdgirl for sending me this article* I may have started barking/pumping my fist at my monitor like I was at an Arsenio Hall taping. Fear my inner 1989 fangirl!

This week, I'm shining the spotlight on the delicious Gale Harold. Aside from being afflicted with a pansy name, this man has got it all-smarts, skills, and sex appeal.

His every feature, from those penetrating dark brown eyes to his shapely arms, combines to form a beauty that can only be described as divine. He's got a jawline sharp enough to grate cheese, big pillow lips, and an ass so beautiful that it should be framed and put up on the wall in the houses of every woman and gay man alive.

YOU KNOW I AM GOING TO CALL HIM "PILLOW LIPS" NOW.

OMG, get this. Both the site and article refused to load for me the first 374619 times I tried the link, so I did a search for the site and Gale's name for a fresh link, right? And it totally popped up.

( BUT LOOK AT WHAT THE FIRST SPONSORED LINK IS ALKJFSAL. )

And then there was another Gale interview (yay!) and along with me being tickled that once again he's laughing while answering questions, there was this quote:

He’s also prepared for viewers who may pester him for information about what’s coming up.
“I know quite a lot, but I don’t know everything there is. I’m not going to tell anybody anything,” he said with a laugh.

Translated into Galespeak: I totally know, and you may think you know, but you don't know and I know that even I don't know, you know?

( the whole article that mentions the uglynastyevil rumor )

And then there was that one Vanished rumor reference ( that made me frown )

Alas, no Pillow Lips news in next week's TV Guide (aside from the usual Monday description). My scanner and I gave each other woeful looks. But what did catch my eye was this in the Ausiello Report.

( cos if the rumor is true... )

I've been listening to Fergie's CD as I write this post and, wow, it is so bad. I like 3 songs outta 16 and one of those is with the Black-Eyed Peas. Oh, Fergie, I love you, girl. But not even your peepee pants could save you now.

And, okay, more I think about it, the more I like it: Brian (not Mr. Taylor) secretly wrote a website sex advice column. YOU KNOW HE DID OMG. "Dear Doctor Dick..."

I finally got to read that interview Gale did for iFMagazine.com and just had this overwhelming rush of affection for him. Well, moreso than usual aldkj. Because for every past:

You may think you know, but you don't know, you know?

We have:

( These people look after law and order at whatever means necessary, and I don’t really believe in that. To hold onto those beliefs and stay true to them and do a lot of work that most people in their lives will never ever have to get even remotely close to; you see it and respect it. When you try to embody it, it teaches you new ways to look at life. )

Also, the first comment at the website:

Gale Harold Jr. from North Carolina sez...
My son continues to amaze me. I was blown away watching Graham Kelton. Lots of growth since he was Brian Kinney. I am very proud of him and his work.

Is this real? Cos dude. I may have to start fangirling Gale's DAD now for more than having sex 37 years ago.
