Boyzillians (?!)

With this article in London’s Evening Standard it appears things have gone too far…

Commisioned simply because Simon Cowell has allegedly had his chest waxed, this article...wait a minute, did you say Simon Cowell? Him of the global entertainment industry, purveyor of awful muzak and responsible for the dilution of our culture, him of the bad hair, bad clothes and perma tan? Why on fuck’s earth would I want to emmulate him?

The other examples of “men” who like to be a bit smoother than the rest of us include David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo – again why would you want to emmulate these fannies anyway?

I am not sayng that you shouldn’t groom, far from it but I would suggest you might try somewhere like Pankhurst, the barber at Alfred Dunhill or Murdock London, gentleman’s grooming at it’s best. Plus they probably still ask you whether you would like “Something for the weekend?” and they are not talking about Sunday morning television.

So go out there and grow some (hairy) balls!
