We'll See is highly underrated. I always listen to it and usually skip Tango:Maureen, which is the opposite of most people. And he should've had a bigger role in Chicago.

I saw that episode. Boy, does that man have a mean set of biceps or what?! Also, one finds out that Mr. Menzel is deathly afraid of needles and getting a shot during his physical upon seeing that episode. It was hilarious seeing a "macho man" carrying on like a little girl when he finds out he needs to have a shot.

I'll hug him! lol

And hell, I don't blame him... I have a thing with needles too! boo that!

As for Chicago.... did you mean the movie? Yes, he deserved a bigger role. He was phenomenal as Billy the stage show though!

i agree that he should have a bigger role in chicago. the only main reason why i bought the movie wsa because of taye. i love the entire thing though.

I am deathly afraid of needles too, actually. I sweat and get kinda shakey when I have to get shots. Does anyone know when that episode of Punk'd will be on again?

Needles always make me a bit nervous, but I learned to get over it young out of a desire to please my parents. When you have to have 5 vaccinations in one sitting at the age of 6, you learn to tolerate needles, I guess.

Punk'd, I missed it.. so hopefully soon insomniak. He is a sexy man. He'll take one look at me and leave Idina Heh.

Well, pm me or post if you know when it will be on.

I was explaining this Punkd to another Taye fan a few days ago. This is what I wrote to her:

Punk'd was frigging hilarious. Taye was about to shoot a movie in Africa (now that I check IMDB, I realize it was "Drum") so he needed to go to the doctor to get a physical done, but Taye's deathly afraid of needles. So he goes there and the joke is that it's actually a Punk'd actor playing the doctor, and another actor playing his assistant. So the "doctor" is a total asshole, and he's, like, criticizing everything that Taye's doing. Well, first he makes Taye stand up and bend over so he touches his toes (and it's funny cuz the doctor is standing directly behind Taye, so...you know how it looks) and he's going, "Niiiice...verrrry nice...."

Then he makes Taye take off his shirt and do one of those boat-rowing machines as fast as possible (at this point my eyes are rolling to the back of my head cuz he's....lordy...), and Taye's not even breaking a sweat but the doctor's like, "C'mon, faster! Faster! Is that the best you can do? *tsktsk* Not good...not good at all. You said you work out 4 days a week? *scoff*" And then he looks and goes, "Are you chewing gum? Oh my god. You were chewing gum when you did that exercise? Are you trying to waste my time? All these results---I've got to send these results off to your insurance company and if you're chewing gum, you've skewed these results!"

And Taye's starting to get mad and the doctor goes, "Do you drink?" "Yeah, I drink." "How much?" "Two beers." "Have you drank today?" "No, just yesterday." "What time?" "I dunno...around midnight?" "So you drank today?!" "No, I drank last night." "You drank today! When is midnight? You do the math, my man. This is not looking good at all." And Taye's about to lose it at him. He's saying something along the lines of, "Okay, I know now, okay? Next time I go to the doctor, I won't chew gum. I won't drink. I'll exercise. Okay?"

So finally the doctor tells him that he needs to take a needle, and Taye's already panicked, and the doctor goes, "Okay, there's a few places you can get this done. In your stomach, or your back into around the liver area." and Taye freaks, and he's like, "W-w-w-wait, what happened to like, the arm or the butt or something?" (at this point, my friend and I are on the floor thinking Taye's okay "taking it in the butt"...anyhoo) So Taye asks the sweet-natured "doctor's assistant" (who's supposed to administer the needle) what area she'd recommend and she went, "Oh I don't know, I've never done this shot before." and Taye's stuttering. Finally Ashton ran out and just upon sight, Taye starting laughing and yelling and jumped on him. *sigh*

Thank you -- I needed that laugh!

Thanks Tiff! I really want to see that, but poor Taye! Punk'd is mean, but it is fun to watch... it's a guilty pleasure of mine, I watch it every now and then.

Don't forget the shower scene of Taye's backside in "How Stella Got Her Groove Back"

Thanks for the link, Tiff. It's just the part where he was about to get the shot =). I amost didn't have the heart to watch that. Poor guy. He seemed so petrified.

[shesings]

Posted: 8/12/04 at 1:49am

He's hosting the 52 most intriguing women thing I think. I wonder how Idina feels about that! I guess whatever pays the bills. God he's hot. I can't even think of anything else to say except he is down right amazing freaking hot. And I want him. In a big bad way.

The video did not want to open for me. Damn my computer.

Taye is HOT, HOT, HOT!! I'll definitely be watching Kevin Hill this fall. He looks so cute with that baby. I'm insanely jealous of Idina!!
