My friend Lois Lane is big with the celebrity crushes so I'm giving her a forum to share who she's into, who she's falling out of love with and which former famous boyfriends just need to be put down.

Robert DeNiro

January 2005

I have always thought him a good actor, naturally. But a few weeks ago I saw Ronin and it ignited the spark that Robert de Niro is not just the greatest living screen legend (at least according to Empire Magazine) he’s also a pretty sexy little dude. That said, this isn’t the usual boy write-up, it is just functioning primarily to get Bob into the fold and to get him on your brain. Now go out and rent one of his many films and appreciate the only non-overrated actor out there.

Name: Robert de Niro

Nicknames: Bobby D.

Best Fansite(s): Check out my Yahoo Group for links to a couple decent sites.

Why He’s a Boyfriend: Bobby D. is almost too much of a legend to write about him in the usual format. I just wanted to have him in the Corral because he is such an incredible actor. More than being traditionally handsome he is magnetic and exciting because of his astonishing talent, which runs through him like a current.

Best Features: Not being all that conventionally good looking, it is really just the sum of his parts, (Although back in the day, he had great thick curly hair.) He can play a leading man, a menacing bastard, or a pathetic schlub and each time he is strangely alluring.

Things You Must See Him In: Where to start. I’ve seen loads of his movies, and still have several more to see. Just a few of my favorites are Midnight Run, Raging Bull, Ronin, Goodfellas, Jackie Brown. If you are looking to just see him be all kinds of cute I recommend The Last Tycoon and Falling In Love, although both are snoozefests. A good recent role for him was in The Score.

Piece of Work You Must Run Screaming From – Because I Didn’t: Well, he has made some serious clunkers. But, since I saw The Fan and Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein in the theater, they take the honors.

I’ll dispense with the usual Why We’d Be Perfect for Each Other/Why We Wouldn’t Get Along and leave it at saying that he can take me around the Big Apple with his American Express card anytime.
