Hello and welcome to my version of the game, ‘F*@#’, Marry, Kill. This week we are WWW’ing French Actors.
Myself and some of my friends are sharing our Want, Wed, and Waste choices from this week’s list:
Gilles Marini, Benjamin Millepied, Olivier Martinez

Me (Alicia Dean). Author of DEATH NOTICE (Northland Crime Chronicles, Book 1) – A killer has something to say, and he’s using her obituary column to get his point across…
(I don’t know these actors, so I’m going by what little I do know, and the superficial ‘looks’ thing. :))
Want: Benjamin Millepied – He’s gorgeous, and although he’s a ballet dancer, he’s very masculine. He’s confident and sexy, he has some kind of charisma about him that’s irresistible. And, how cool would it be to have a fling with Natalie Portman’s husband?
Wed: Gilles Marini – I’m not sure what kind of husband material he’d be, but who cares? Have you SEEN this guy? YUMMMM
Waste: Olivier Martinez – He just doesn’t do it for me, although I haven’t seen him in anything other than photos. (That I recall). I don’t like those squinty eyes. (Let’s face it, he doesn’t have that sexy, badA$$ Clint Eastwood squint. He just has really tiny eyes)

SILVER JAMES, author of THAT OL’ BLACK MAGIC Werewolves, Fae, and Dragons, oh my! What’s Sade Marquis, a human FBI agent, to do? Solve the crime, of course. Website: http:/www.silverjames.com
Want: Benjamin Millepied. He’s a dancer. And choreographer. That means he has moves. And stamina. 😉 Oh, and he’s pretty darn easy on the eyes, too! And did I mention that he’s limber? Just sayin’… 😀
Wed: Gilles Marini. He’s a dancer, too, but not professionally. When he took his shirt off for the tango during Dancing With the Stars, I was a goner. I swooned. No, really. Swooned, I tell you! He’s sooo darn sexy that he could be a lover and a husband. But…I wouldn’t want to wear him out so Benjamin can come visit.
Waste: Olivier Martinez. Sorry, dude. You just don’t do it for me. You might be all about the “Revenge” but I’m a lover, not a fighter. Most of the time. 😉

Layla Chase, author of Up And Coming, an erotic romance that features a Latin hero who seduces with his dancing ability. Website: www.laylachase.com
Want—Olivier Martinez—those intense looks he gave Diane Lane in the movie Unfaithful were scorching and the love scenes were combustible.
Wed—Gilles Marini—I have a secret fantasy over guys who are accomplished dancers and often include a sexy dance scene in my erotic titles.
Waste—Benjamin Millepied—can’t deny that I think there’s something a wee bit creepy about romances that occur while a movie (Black Swan) is in production.

Linda McLaughlin, author of ROGUE’S HOSTAGE — His hostage… Her destiny…

Linda is offering a FREE ebook copy of Rogues’ Hostage to one lucky commenter!!!
Want: Olivier Martinez. Not only is he gorgeous, he’s charming and has a cute sense of humor. I watched some interviews at YouTube, and he said that, as an actor, he’s the “shame” of his family of boxers and mechanics. LOL. This Sunday Olivier is starting a multi-episode arc on REVENGE, and I’m looking forward to watching.
Wed: Gilles Marini. Another handsome, charming Frenchman. Gilles isn’t just a good actor, he can dance and cook, too. Perfect marriage material, methinks. I enjoyed his stint on Brothers and Sisters as Rachel Griffiths French lover.
Waste: Benjamin Millepied. I hate to have to do this. Benjamin is an incredible ballet dancer, and I do love the ballet. But I could only find one movie he was in, BLACK SWAN, and he had such a small role, I didn’t even realize who he played until I got to the credits. Apparently his main job was choreographer and he did a fabulous job. But I fell in love with the film, not the actor. If you haven’t seen it, the movie is terrific, suspenseful and visually beautiful. Natalie Portman deserved her best actress Oscar.

Author Alicia Dean 
Hmm. I’m not familiar with any of these actors, but just going by the pictures, I’d have to say magnifique!! Wed: All (I could go for a ‘special’ marriage.) Want: All (Fourplay anyone?) Waste: Um, Sorry. None. Can’t waste such goodies. Fun.

I don’t recognize any of these guys, but bachelor #1 (Gilles) is definitely swoon-worthy. He’s my pick to practice my French on!

I’m glad to know I’m not the only one unfamiliar with these guys. Although, I’ll have to say, I wouldn’t mind getting better acquainted, wink, wink

Callie, magnifique is the word for all three of them! Gilles is my favorite though. So far, anyway.
LikeLike
Yeah, I kind of knew who he was. I didn’t watch Sex in the City or Unfaithful, although I’m sure I would love that movie. I don’t watch Dancing with the Stars, so…I guess that’s how I keep missing him. 🙂

Just wanted to add, BLACK SWAN really is a terrific, suspenseful movie, if anyone hasn’t seen it. Doesn’t end well, though, and that is all I will say.

That’s what I hear from some, others say it was boring and stupid. I’ll have to check it out some time.

Don’t know any of them, haven’t seen any of the movies. (I really need to get a life.) Based on appearance only, I’d pick the same as Alicia. Wish I could hear them speak. I love accents!

The only actor I know is Gilles Marini. Not from film but from Dancing With The Stars. Besides being a great dancer, he seems like such a nice guy. I agree with Silver about when he took his shirt off. HOT.
