It was either this or a story about Kim Kardashian’s abs. Which I still might do, you know. It’s really dead around here this morning. So why not cover these beautiful photos of Ewan McGregor? Right? These are pics of Ewan’s appearance at a Q&A session at the Rafael Film Center in San Francisco, California. He’s promoting his new film, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen. If you’d like to read more about his appearance, go here. I just want to talk about how attractive he is. I mean… come on. Ewan is the best. Ewan is – to me – like the Scottish Jeff Bridges. He’s a workhorse actor who takes varied roles in films of varied quality, and throughout his career, there are this little gems of performances. Ewan is always the best part of whatever film he’s in.

When Christopher Plummer won his Best Supporting Actor Oscar on Sunday, I really wished that Ewan was in the audience. Plummer gave him a shout-out in his speech – Ewan played his son in the film Beginners, and it seems like Plummer and McGregor really grew to adore each other in the making of that film. Which brings me back to why the Oscars sucked so hard this year… producers ALWAYS forget that the Oscars audience is made up of a majority of women and gay dudes. We want to see actresses in gowns, and we want hot guys. All of the presenters should have been high-profile (but not necessarily high-quality) actresses and really attractive men. Ewan should have been asked to present. As should Jon Hamm. And Blake Lively. And Julia Roberts. And Daniel Craig. And Michael Fassbender. And why not Demian Bichir? He’s hot. Bringing in Tom Cruise to finish off the night – well, I understand that MI4 did well. So invite him, but don‘t have him finish. But bring in an all-star hot guy or lady to finish off the night. Bring in Robert Redford. Bring in Lauren Bacall.

Basically, I want more Ewan McGregor ALL the time. Especially at awards shows.
