Lloyd Grove's Lowdown: Scoopy, sexy, and surprisingly fashionable
By Rachel on Jun 08, 2005 08:51 AM
Okay, so we already know that the New York Daily News' Lloyd Grovegets him the scoops. And we also know that he's man enough to take down two very tall celebrities. But who knew he had such an avant-garde fashion sense? In today's Lowdown we get a titillating interview with Jesse Bradford (who will always remain Cliff from "Bring It On" in my heart), who affirmed his own manliness by making out with James Mardsen in his upcoming movie. But hot James Mardsen is one thing - Lowdown's sassy silver lion's head belt buckle is quite another. Situated as it was at the gateway to paradise, Bradford could only stare, compliment, and deny, deny, deny: "Um, not that I was staring at your crotch." Oh, Lloyd Grove, where do your powers stop?*
In other news, LA culture queen Judith Regan may have been too squeamish to take on Deep Throat (insert your own Jenna Jameson joke here) but she apparently has no such issues with "Runaway Bride" Jennifer Wilbanks, who is apparently ready to take her story of twilight jogs and self-haircutting to the wider world (well, whatever we didn't see on Fox/CNN). At least her long-suffering fiance John Mason will get in on that action. I still think it's hilarious that Regan almost published the Deep Throat story. Photo of lion's head belt buckle after the jump, just because.
*Yes, I know there is a slim possibility that Lowdown-about-town gadfly Hudson Morgan was the belt-wearer/paradise-flaunter in question. But until proven otherwise, my Lloyd Grove as scoopy, sexy, belt-buckly fantasy remains intact. I wanna tell him that I love him but the point is probably moot.
"Jesse's Girl" Rick Springfield
(1981)
Jesse is a friend
Yeah, I know he's been a good friend of mine
But lately something's changed, it ain't hard to define
Jesse's got himself a girl and I wanna make her mine
And she's watchin' him with those eyes
And she's lovin' him with that body, I just know it
And he's holding her in his arms late, late at night
You know I wish that I had Jesse's girl
I wish that I had Jesse's girl
Why can't I find a woman like that?
I play along with the charade
There doesn't seem to be a reason to change
You know I feel so dirty when they start talkin' cute
I wanna tell her that I love her, but the point is probably moot
'Cause she's watchin' him with those eyes
And she's lovin' him with that body, I just know it
And he's holding her in his arms late, late at night
You know I wish that I had Jesse's girl
I wish that I had Jesse's girl
Why can't I find a woman like that?
Like Jesse's girl
I wish that I had Jesse's girl
Why can't I find a woman
Why can't I find a woman like that?
(guitar break; bridge)
And I'm lookin' in the mirror all the time
Wonderin' what she don't see in me
And I've been funny, I've been cool with the lines
Ain't that the way love supposed to be
(another, rockier guitar break)
Tell me
Why can't I find a woman like that?
You know I wish that I had Jesse's girl
I wish that I had Jesse's girl
I want Jesse's girl
Why can't I find a woman like that?
Like Jesse's girl
I wish that I had Jesse's girl
I want, I want Jesse's girl
