An Ovarian Eruption

Don't worry - I totes mean the good kind of ovarian eruption...

Ladies and gentlemen, I present the cast of "Magic Mike" - Hollywood's gift to sexually repressed women all over the globe.

Who needs Christian Grey when you've got five of the hottest young actors playing strippers on the big screen??

I think I'm having a hot flash just looking at this photo.

For those of you who are unaware of the film, we have Channing Tatum (center) of "Step Up", "G.I. Joe" and "The Vow" fame playing a lead stripper in the soon-to-be summer blockbuster.

What's the plot of the movie, you ask? Who gives a sh!t.

And if that weren't enough, he's joined by Joe Manganiello ("True Blood"), Matt Bomer ("White Collar"...yes, his last name is BoMer), Matthew McConaughey (naked bongo player), and Alex Pettyfer (from "I Am Number Four", which came in at number 20 in the box office...)

Whether or not you know of these men won't really matter once you see them shake their bon bons on stage for our viewing pleasure.

From what I can gather of the plot (for those of you who care about that sort of thing), Channing Tatum is trying to teach Alex Pettyfer how to party, hit on chicks, and make easy money.

And... that's about it. I'm frankly surprised that the director chose to include dialog at all. Won't that just distract us from the view?

It's about time that a movie like this was made. I'm tired of seeing a slew of ta-tas on the big and small screens with little-to-no reciprocity from our male leads. A random butt shot of Eric or Bill in "True Blood" is only going to take me so far, especially when I'm then subjected to 20 minutes of full frontal from Anna Paquin.

Where's the justice? The equality? Where are all the hot MEN?

Even my favorite lesbian talk show host, Ellen DeGeneres, understands Hollywood's oversight and regularly hosts male strippers on her show for all to see (please enjoy the video below).


So to whoever wrote the screenplay for Magic Mike: I applaud you! As do the loins of women all across America.

See you in theaters June 29th - I'll be the one sitting in the front row.
