Mr. Pink

Women have secret famous boyfriends. Some of us have a complete menu of them.

When Queen of the Mayhem asked me, "If you could hook up with one celebrity who would it be and why", the Rolodex in my brain rolled like a ferris wheel.

The hotness of George Clooney or Brad Pitt immediately pops into mind. The sexy seducing "come hither" looks from Johnny Depp are irresistible. Seasoned, well experienced handsome Robert Redford would be an interesting "hook up", as well as the ever classic Jack Nicholson.

I know who'd I'd pick though.

Considering the definition of "hook up" being having a date with, hanging out with, getting to know and spend time with, made my decision easy.

I've put this guy sitting next to me at the "if you could invite 10 people to dinner, who would you choose" question every time.

See if you can figure it out by some of the roles he's played.

Garland Green in "Con Air"
Dave Veltri in "The Wedding Singer"
Donny Kerabatsos in "The Big Lebowski"
Rockhound in "Armageddon"
Crazy Eyes in "Mr. Deeds"
And my favorite, Mr. Pink in "Reservoir Dogs"

"Why am I Mr. Pink? Why can't we pick out our own colors? Yeah, Mr. Pink sounds like Mr. Pussy. Tell you what, let me be Mr. Purple. That sounds good to me, I'm Mr. Purple."


Steve Buscemi


He plays odd, strange character roles and to me, he's always played them well.

I'd like to see how his thinking parallels to the offbeat characters he's done. Even the best of actors have a bit of each of the characters personality they portray, no?


Maybe it's his "different" look. Not at all the Hollywood lead male heartthrob. I think he's sexy-cool ... in his own way.
