Red Carpet Cutie - Victor Rasuk

I literally gasped at my desk after seeing this picture (above) over at Tom & Lorenzo's blog. This gentleman is 27-year-old Victor Rasuk, the Harlem-born Dominican actor/cutie I fell in love with after seeing Raising Victor Vargas back in 2002. Yes, he was only 18 years-old at the time ... but if loving Victor Vargas Rasuk is wrong, I don't want to be right:

Rasuk was attending the NYC premiere of the HBO's Mildred Pierce remake - so I checked to see he makes an appearance in the miniseries, but no such luck. However, Rasuk DOES co-star in How To Make It In America (also on HBO) - a show that will be stalked as soon as I get home, thankyouverymuch.

Who Approved This????

I hadn't heard that HBO was remaking one of the greatest movies of all time - Mildred Pierce - and turning it into a miniseries until yesterday, and I'm shocked and appalled.  Listen, I like Kate Winslet (above) just as much as the next queen - but we're talking about Mildred EFFIN' Pierce here (AKA "Mildred FIERCE")!! This was the role Joan Crawford was born to play!! Furthermore, Evan Rachel Wood (Queen Sophie-Anne on True Blood) plays the spoiled, ungrateful daughter.  Blasphemy!!

The next thing you know they'll be remaking Psycho with Anne Heche in the Janet Leigh role and Vince Vaughn as Norman Bates!!  Oh ... wait ... nevermind ...

Speaking of True Blood, did anyone watch the finale? It kinda left me flat - too many open story lines, including some I don't care about at all (Jason/Crystal, Sam/his brother, and Arlene/her demon baby, for example).  I just want to see Eric, Pam, Alcide and Lafayatte (and his hot Brujo) and not so much everyone else.  Oh, and I also love Hoyt (and his crazy Mama) and Jessica.

Anywhore, what did YOU think of the finale??
