Gerard Butler has been named a L’Oreal spokesman (praise the mullet)

42490, DETROIT, MICHIGAN - Monday July 12 2010. Gerard Butler sporting a rather fine mullet as he shoots scenes for the forthcoming thriller Machine Gun Preacher in Michigan. The fact-based drama sees the Scotish hunk as Sam Childers, an outlaw who renounces his bad ways and becomes a warrior for the desperate and helpless children in a war-torm African country.

I hate when LaineyGossip picks up a Gerard Butler story before me! Lainey hates Gerard so much. She can’t see his flawed beauty, nor his rugged sexiness. She doesn’t understand that part of his charm is that he likes to eat and he likes to be dirty (RAWR) and he likes the company of ladies. I get tired of super-clean, hairless femme boys where you’re always questioning their sexuality. Sometimes you need a little raw-edged, bare-knuckled naughty Scotsman to get your knickers in a twist.

Anyway, Gerard has been named the new spokesman for L’Oréal Paris Men’s Expert. It’s a worldwide deal, in which Gerard will be the face of L’Oreal’s Men’s Expert Hydra Energetic line. Women’s Wear Daily points out that the ads will not be appearing stateside, however. So, basically, all of you foreign sluts (BITCHES) will get to enjoy some pretty, dirty Gerard in your magazine ads.

According to WENN (which probably got it off of L’Oreal’s press release, “Gerard Butler has partnered with L’Oreal Paris as the worldwide brand spokesperson for its Men Expert skincare line. Chosen for his ‘charisma, confidence and modern style’, the Scottish actor is fronting the number one selling men’s Hydra Energetic range.” Charisma? Yes. He has that. In buckets. In his pants. Confidence? Yes, he’s a cocky bastard. And I love him for it. Modern style? Not so much. But at least The Mullet detaches.

    These pics are so upsetting. I really wish you’d stop re-posting them. L’Oreal huh? I don’t think that’s a good call for The Butz.

    Maybe not a good thing to be L’Oreal spokesman, but he looks like the kind of guy you imagine ripping your clothes off and having his way with you all naughty-like. ;) And yeah, I kinda like that look…

    i’ve been seeing this guy all over the place the past week and i must say, i’ve never had a thing for him, but dang. up close he is dashing, as a friend of mine referred to him. i was helping her close up after work this past saturday and he walked past giving her the side eye. but he’s not the nicest. he’s been to two different bars where my girlfriend works and the first night he was hitting on two women, ignoring the fact that they were sitting with their husbands. the second night he tried to force them to stay open after closing time and left a $hitty tip. he may be handsome but he can be a jerk too.

    If someone doesn’t know Gerry, they may get the wrong impression. Gerry is personable with men and women and yes he is a flirt, but that is him…doesn’t mean disrespect. Also, he is scottish and yes, a bit cheap/tight/thrifty with his money, but he is also generous with his money and time to fans and those less fortunate.. He is “cheeky” but not mean or hateful. He is a human like all of us, we all have good and bad days. He is a a “hottie” and the perfect man for Loreal.

    Is it just me, or does L’Oreal seem like an awfully girly choice for Gerard to make? It’s sort of..budget, too. I would think he’d be more of a designer fragrance or skincare line sort of spokesman before he’d do this sort of thing.

    God, he looks SO constipated in that top pic. I feel dirty looking at it, I want to hand him some toilet paper and slink out of the room.

    @lee, didn’t see the last half of your comment there about joking…he’d been there by himself watching a soccer match on tv, bascally keeping to himself until it was over. by the time he started mingling with people he may have been drunk and there’s always the possibilty he didn’t notice the other dudes. he just strikes me as the kind of guy who’s all “husbands? whatever, i’m gerard butler!”

    No “wig” it’s not just you. Looking at him is nauseating, much less his smarmy slutty smug personality. He looks like he smells and is a full on bore of an actor.

    if french girlfriend was here she would not have been happy about the one night he spent at this “private” type bar in downtown detroit. it’s not so much private, just VIP with dancers (not a strip club) where all the sports dudes and people with more money than me go to. unless she was there with him and was down with the confiscating of the dancer chicks. from what has been seen around town he’s looking like a single guy having fun.

    The great thing about Gerard is that he seems to be able to go from fluffy to fit in no time. Assuming that L’Oreal prefers his body to look more 300 and less like he just rolled off the hobo train, we may just see the old Gerry McHotty back. Personally, I’d like to see him give the Old Spice guy a run for his money.

    Kaiser, I honestly think if given the chance, you would kidnap Mr. Butler and tie him to your bed, where you can freely explore his rugged and dirty sexiness while yelling “Who’s your bitch” to him all day/night long.

    Oooh, I saw that ages ago, no idea the Butler was in it! I’ll have to give it another watch.

    Good lord, the man is lovely. I could watch him fix engines all day- some men just look better a bit mucky.

    I’m almost blind and by nature I find resemblances noone except me can see, but it’s the second time that I notice a slight resemblance between Gerard and James McAvoy, especially in the fourth picture.
    They could easily be brothers, to me.

    In any case, he’s not a great choice to promote a skincare line, he is so rough.

    Edit: Laney is a “she”?

    Kaiser you are a riot and a woman after my own heart. Whenever I come here and read what you have to say about G, 9 times out of 10 I’m just nodding my head like a felt chihuahua in the back window of ’71 Nova.

    I have to agree with whoever said he was probably joking (I’m sure he thought he was funny) when he was hitting on married women w/husbands sitting nearby. His sense of humor can be sophomoric at times lol. Gotta love ‘im.

    That private club he visited was “The Hamilton Room.” A couple of tweets reported him being their. It’s definitely his style of place…and not one that a steady girlfriend would be happy about.

    However, he seemed to have fun. I’m sure he’s had guys showing him great places to party in the area. And perhaps he’s gone out on his own.

    Funny. Someone said Laurie had been in town over a week or so but no one ever mentioned him having a woman with him when he was out. He was seen out and about. He seemed to be a free agent. Just saying, He may not be steady boyfriend material. Perhaps a boyfriend but not a steady one.

    Regarding the “Hamilton Room” in Birmingham, it is not a “private club” according to the following excerpt from the Detroit Free Press (March 11, 2010 – Metromix section):

    “At just six months old, the downtown Birmingham venue near the Palladium, has already developed a following often reserved for more established venues.”

    “The people that come in here, in general, have a little higher monetary earning, are a little bit more upscale,” Palaian says. “I would say established people, but not everyone. I don’t want to pigeon hole us.”

    But like any true high-end nightclub, genuine VIP status is purchased. And at the Hamilton Room, the VIP Access Card — which includes different levels of special discounts, club privileges and other unique offerings — can be picked up for $1,500 to $4,000.”

    “With the perception of exclusivity comes some misconceptions that the Hamilton Room is a private club, but Palaian ensures that isn’t the case and its open for the general public.”

    @ Solveig… about your comment “I notice a slight resemblance between Gerard and James McAvoy They could easily be brothers, to me.”… FINALLY!!! Someone sees what I see!!! If ever a movie is made where Gerry has a younger brother, those involved in casting would be blind not to cast James McAvoy!!! They really do look like brothers! Although, Gerry is the sexier of the two; but McAvoy would make a great awkward younger bro!
