Timothy Patrick Murphy
From: Favorite Hunks & Other Things
 Timothy Patrick Murphy was a fixture on television during the early 80's. With roles on Search For Tomorrow, Dallas, Glitter and as a young Michael Landon in Sam's Son. Sadly his time in Hollywood was cut short with his death in 1988 from AIDs at the age of 29. He was a bright light for the short time he was with us.

 “Adam is Danish, born in London, but he calls San Francisco home while he puts himself through nursing school by waiting tables. He works and studies hard, but still finds the time in his busy schedule to go dancing with his friends. While he’s new to modeling, “Adam was a natural in front of the camera – incredibly open and playful, fun to work with” says Joe.


 Using shadows and color, BLUE explores a theme of losing yourself in moments. “There’s something very sexy about being inside, feeling the sun on your body. It can feel like a little vacation, a time when you let yourself go.” “

The 1999 teen drama saw Gellar as a manipulative diva who turns naive Blair into her puppet—and gets a big wet kiss from in a pivotal scene.

Their win marked the first gay kiss to take home a trophy, and the two delivered a more conservative smooch at the awards themselves.

Matthieu Charneau
Actor/Model

Matthieu Charneau (born November 23, 1988, in France) is a French actor and model.

He debuted as a model at age 21 after being spotted by a photographer during a visit to Paris.

In 2011 Nicola Formichetti chose him to play in his short film Brothers Of Arcadia for MUGLER. The film is directed by Branislav Jancik in New York and was broadcast at the opening of the Mugler show during Fashion Week in Paris. This collaboration launched Matthieu’s success in the fashion industry and in late 2011 he made his move to Paris.

In 2012 he began training at the prestigious European Acting School Cours Florent. That same year he became a muse for the famous French artists Pierre & Gilles. He posed in three of their photographs entitled Johnny Guitar, Narcissus and Ohé Matelot. After various publications, including the cover of the British magazine Yearbook by Laurent Humbert and an exclusive portrait for Butt Magazine by Luis Venegas, he was chosen as part of the jury for the French Film Festival Chéries-Chéris together with Spanish actress Rossy de Palma and French writer and screen writer Philippe Besson.

In 2013 the young actor appeared on the cover of the French cultural and political magazine Les Inrockuptibles for their special issue, “Homophobie, c’est pas Bientôt Fini?!” He also posed for fashion photographer Damon Baker. While training at Cours Florent he landed the role of Samson in the short film Coup de Grâce directed by Justin Wu – a contemporary adaptation of Delilah Myth from the Bible. The film has been selected for the San Jose International Film Festival 2013 in California as well as for the Fashion Film Festival ASVOFF 2013 at the Georges Pompidou Center Art Museum in Paris.

In late 2013 Matthieu was cast for a leading role in the feature film 'Les Français du Jours J' - a war film directed by Cédric Condon about the allied landing on June 6, 1944 with Commando Kieffer. He plays the role of Marcel Labas, a young Marine rifleman.

In 2014, after a couple of music video collaborations with the bands Gentle Republic and Hollydays, Matthieu portrayed Freddie Mercury for Schön Magazine. While traveling in Los Angeles and New York, he was featured as one of the 'OUT 100' in the prestigious OUT Magazine. The photos were shot in New York by photographers Therese & Joel.

In late 2014 Matthieu plays the lead in 'I'm Cornered', a short film written and directed by Nicolas Goergen which screened at the Nikon Film Festival. It tells the story of a young man demoralized by the aggressive questioning by his doctor after an HIV test. Always keeping a foot in the modeling world, he was shot in Barcelona by photographer Carlos Puig Padilla for the exhibit Vanities Vanitatum Omnia Vanitas at the N2 Gallery.

In 2015 Matthieu will be featured in 'Arnaud fait son 2ème Film' - second film of the French director Arnaud Viard after 'Clara et Moi' in 2003. The film will be launched in French theaters April 2015.

Matthieu joins Lee Jones, Stephen Moyer and Katey Sagal in new Kurt Sutter's Drama The Bastard Executioner as Ventris' Servant, also named Frenchie. The Pilot will be directed by Paris Barclay, President of the Directors Guild of America, and who has directed 15 episodes of Sons Of Anarchy.

“Don’t Pay The Ferryman” 
Chris De Burgh

I featured my favorite Chris De Burgh song, “High On Emotion,” on the first Lost Hits list, and here we have my 2nd favorite Chris song, which would be his first top 40 entry, peaking at #34 in July 1983. He would hit the top 40 just once more, with “Lady In Red.” Sadly, the music video (which was one of my favorites when I was a kid) seems to have disappeared, but here’s a performance video that features scenes from the video.

“Wired For Sound”
 Cliff Richard

Remember in junior high how cringe-inducing it was when the adult chaperons would try to dance with the kids? I give you Sir Cliff Richard in “Wired For Sound.” With the rollerskating and the lycra dancers, it looks like a deleted scene from Xanadu. Which come to think of it, it could have been.

The 40 Hottest Male Bodies Of 2015!

From: Boy Culture
Public dancer
 Channing Tatum

We all know who he is—from What a Girl Wants (2003) to Magic Mike XXL (2015), he has shown that a big hunk of meat can have personality, can act sensitively, can be funny and—best of all—can have the fluid moves of a pro dancer. Not since Gene Kelly—whom Tatum seems to be evoking in scenes in Hail, Caesar! (2016), have we had such a broad-backed hoofer over whom to swoon.

Tatum has come a long way from posing in underwear for a college classmate. But luckily for us, not too far: He is still a reliable show-off in movies and magazine spreads.





Thanks for reading in 2015, and happy 2016 to you! One parting thought:

Scream, Queens! The Top 40 Horror Films of The 80’s!

From:  The Backlot

SNICKS DRIVE IN DOUBLE FEATURE
Night Of The Creeps/Night Of The Comet

It’s difficult to do horror satire successfully, but the films tied at #2 not only achieve that goal, but they also work as straight horror films, and in the case of the latter film, as romantic fluff.

Night Of The Creeps isn't very well known, but it should be. Alien slugs crash to earth, turning frat kids into zombies. Two frat pledges discover the grisly truth, and try to fight the invasion. Oh, did I mention they’re at Corman University? If that means something to you, then you’ll probably enjoy this underrated gem. And I think this may have been the first time I ever heard the expression “Screaming Like Banshees.



Part horror, part sci-fi, part romance, Night Of The Comet stars Catherine Mary Stewart and Kelli Maroney as Valley Girl sisters who survive when a comet brings the zombie apocalypse. Featuring Mary Woronov, Chakotay and an awesome 80′s synth soundtrack, it’s a lot of fun, with some actual scares along the way. A perfect 80′s time capsule.
