Just A Dude . . . A Dude You Should Date: April 2011

Hey- Do You Wanna Go Out With Me?

On December 27, 2010, Natalie Portman's PR team announced she was engaged to French dancer/choreographer Benjamin Millepied, whom she had met on the set of "Black Swan," which he choreographed and in which he had a small role.

Now, Natalie Portman was supposed to be my wife. She didn't know it, but she was. Needless to say, the news of her pregnancy and engagement was pretty crushing. But rather than let it break me, I decided to steel my will instead. "Never again," I said, "will I let a famous (or even semi-famous) person who I am supposed to marry slip through my fingers without at least giving myself a shot--without at least asking them out." Thus was dudeyoushoulddate.blogspot.com born. You can follow it on Twitter at @DudeUShouldDate. And if, for some strange reason, you want to email me, I can be reached at dudeyoushoulddate@gmail.com. Enjoy?

How Could You, Katy Perry? And After Calling Me (Specifically Me) A Firework!

Dear Katy Perry,
You know, Katy, for a while I really thought we had something. But I guess I was wrong--you're hot then you're cold, you're yes then you're no, you don't really wanna stay (no!) and I guess now I know for sure you wanna go (oh!). And, frankly, I'm sick of your games, and while I may not be 19 anymore when I shave I still look like a teenager, and if I'm not dreamy enough for you, well, than it might be time for you to reevaluate your standards--huge boobs and international pop-stardom or no.

And not to be nasty or anything, but there may be a good explanation for this: I've heard some rumors recently that Ur So Gay. And that's too bad, because I get that you may have kissed a girl and liked it, but I feel like if you let me kiss you, girl, you would like that, too--maybe even more.

Sincerely,
A Dude You Should Date

PS-Also, because I can't link in the title of this post, I'm throwing down a link to the "Firework" music video here.
