Stable Boy: Matthew Gray Gubler



Ok, I'll be honest, I had no idea who this guy was until I started watching "Criminal Minds". I find him fascinating. His drawings are very creepy, but provoke emotions which in my mind makes him a great artist. He's also the voice of Simon in "Alvin and the Chipmunks." So that adds to my love of this guy. He's quiet, smart, and if you look at photo's of him on Myspace, or on his website he seems like someone I'd totally hang out with. He's Fringe, and to me that equals me being a fan for life. What can I say I love me someone on the Fringe of society. Check him out he's cool. He also started out as a model and then became an actor. I love his long locks which when they get messed up on screen give him what we fans call "Sex Hair!"

Stable Jester: Stephen Colbert


Ok, I know many people don't like Stephen, but I for one think he's amazing.

Not only is he hysterical but he's genuinely a good guy. This is a man who came from a family of 11 children of which he is the youngest. From a very young age Stephen learned how to be funny, from his parents. He's dealt with family trauma after losing his father and two brothers in a plane accident. He's an amazing improv actor who can make any character he does very believable even playing himself. Stephen Colbert.


Stephen this past year broke his wrist and asked his audience and members of the Colbert Nation to buy "Wrist Strong" bracelets to promote wrist awareness. It was tongue in cheek but his audience went and did just that. What they didn't know was that proceeds would go to the Yellow Ribbon Fund to help soldiers who were back from Iraq and healing from their wounds.


This man has a heart of gold and truly cares about his country. Regardless that he plays a right wing nut the real Stephen Colbert really cares about his country and the men and women who are currently serving overseas. Not only did he create a bracelet craze he also created an ice cream one as well. In 2007 Ben and Jerry's Ice cream unveiled "Stephen Colbert Americone Dream" ice cream for the public to buy. Again a percentage of the proceeds would go to charity. Not only is it sweet that he get an ice cream flavor but it's sweet he's helping those in need. Isn't that what sweet means?

Stable Stallion: Craig Ferguson


Laughter to me means more than anything. I've always found Craig attractive, what with being Scottish and all. What can I say I love a man with a Barogue accent.
What makes Craig Ferguson beautiful is that he's bettering himself. Recently Craig took a huge step and applied for citizenship of the United States of America. On his show he showed footage of himself taking the citizenship test which he passed with flying colors of red, white, and blue. He got a perfect score. 100%! A week later on February 1, 2008 he aired footage of himself at the swearing in ceremony.
What I also love is how real Craig is. He like Eddie Izzard hasn't been changed by Hollywood and made to forget their fans who got them where they are today. Craig takes time to meet and greet his fans after his shows. He's also been frank about his past. He's told his audience about his fight with alcoholism and how he's been sober for 17 years. He also aired a very touching show which featured laughter and tears the day after his father passed away.


Craig cares, Craig is real, and that's what makes Craig beautiful in my eyes.
