David Gandy doesn't hold out much more appeal for me, though I would be less worried about leaving him unattended around kitchen appliances (deep down, I think we all know that David Beckham has tried to iron his clothes while wearing them.)
Mik, with all due respect, I think we all know where you stand, but the fact that you refuse to budge in your opinions shouldn't really stop others discussing things if they want to, should it? Personally I think there's a long way between a lying famewhore and a Sainty McSainterson who can do no wrong, so I don't actually think it has to be one or the other.
Zola brought up a really interesting point (sorry, no clue how to multi quote!) about how we tend to project however we are feeling onto paparazzi pics, and I think that can be true to some extent about how we view celebrities we're interested in full stop, I think that is a big part of what makes forums like this interesting - half of what we speculate about Askars reveals a lot more about ourselves than him.Years ago, I had an extremely ill advised fling with a somewhat famous musician, and once came across a fan account of observing us in his car (we were behind a car full of fans in traffic leaving a gig) - they were all convinced that we were in a fight, and had all sorts of theories as to what was going on, ranging from I was jealous of fan attention to he couldn't handle being with a woman who wasn't a blow up groupie type (I'm brunette - shocking!) ... the truth? I was jetlagged and half falling asleep and he was preoccupied with an interview he had to do early the next day with a journalist who had slated him before.
Which isn't to say that everyone (or even anyone!) here is sitting projecting their issues onto the Mount Askars by any means, but we just have to look at the gloriously entertaining Twihard meltdown to see what happens when fans think they really know what's going on with any celebrity...
Just kidding 
Gilda, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall telling anyone that they couldn't express their opinion just because I won't waiver in mine. I'm stating that I will stand by my opinion just like expect others to stand by theirs.
The second bolded part, I definitely agree with. It makes me re-examine what I will and will not tolerate.
Uh huhhhhh....Okay, spill it Gilda! What were you realllllllly doing in that car?
I stand by my opinion(s), but I do see and understand your point..
Note*: The Twihard meltdown is a bit sad and funny at the same time. It really is like watching a train wreck.
Ahh, my mistake then - it seemed implied by your posts, but happy to be corrected!
Sadly, the truth is almost always a lot more mundane and run of the mill than many (not least publicists!) would like to believe
:giggles:
I'd take that if we could get him back in a priest collar, that was kind of hot...Mik, with all due respect, I think we all know where you stand, but the fact that you refuse to budge in your opinions shouldn't really stop others discussing things if they want to, should it?

I think we all need to have an international pow-wow and sing a few verses of Kumbaya.
It seems like we are all saying the same thing in differing ways. I like a good, passionate debate as much as the next person, and tomorrow it might be me going against the grain of the conversation. Its the way the thread rolls.
Yay, though I walk through the valley of snark
I will fear no sofa king ban
For thou is a forum of free speech (with mild moderation)
My opinion and emoticons shall comfort me.
