We all need to see this.

Hey, ladies.

Matt Smith: the 11th Doctor

Hena — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 01:29:44 +0000

Several days ago, the announcement was made that Matt Smith is the 11th Doctor. I don’t know if you know, because you sure as hell should know, that I am a huge Doctor Who fan. Nerd. Geek. Fangirl. Whatever, you know? And honestly, I was not appalled by this idea like so many other people were/are. There are three main reasons why people do not like him:

He is too young.
He is white.
He lacks in eyebrows.

To all who dislike Matt Smith already for at least one of those reasons: GROW THE FUCK UP. Seriously.

Sure, he is 26 years old. For some people that is not mature enough. But look at little Dakota Fanning, a 14 year old actress. Isn’t she mature? So, then, why is Matt Smith not mature? Is it because his resume is not long enough? Is it because he’s someone nobody knows? Is it because he’s younger than you? His youth will bring something different to the Doctor Who scene, and chances are that that certain something will be a good something.

Do you not like him because he’s white? I’m not calling you racist, but I’m calling you lame. Sure, Paterson Joseph was the front-runner. But come on, calm down. You don’t know what went on behind the scenes, do you? What if Paterson Joseph was an asshole and declined the offer? What if he didn’t even audition? What if he wasn’t even approached by the big guys about being the next Doctor? It’s not a matter of the executives being racist. It’s a matter of who feels right in the Tardis, and as much as I’d love seeing Paterson Joseph being the next Doctor, Matt Smith has that really awkward distant look to him that makes him look like a Time Lord.

Is it the lack of his eyebrows that bother you? I’ll admit that it bothers me too. I am a member of this community. Matt Smith has the potential to be such a heartthrob among girls everywhere, but with his un-hairy eyebrow line he’s kind of blowing that opportunity. Or so we think. We have yet to see him be The Doctor. If he has the wit, the charm, the clever sexiness that all previous regenerations had, he’s going to be that heartthrob, and perhaps start a trend. No, seriously. You heard it here first.

All we have to do is wait. We have to give him a chance. We have to find out who his companion is. We need more photoshoot pictures of him. Then we won’t have to see this before getting to his Wikipedia entry.

Unfortunately, I can’t find any high quality images of him to spam this post with. But stick with me, my friends, and when I do find them, I promise I’ll post them. Until then, have a nice, sexy picture of Ben Barnes:

Now, this has me wondering…why didn’t they choose Ben Barnes to be The Doctor? Tee hee.

Since WireImage posted a lot of Ben Barnes photos today, I’d like to share them with you. For my viewing pleasure.

There was some article written somewhere where Ben Barnes said that he doesn’t like being a ~*~heartthrob~*~ in Hollywood. He wants to be respected as an actor. You know what I think? I think I need to get in his pants; then he can say crap like that.

trust me, i’m not obsessed

Hey, is this believable?

Or just fucking creepy?

Here he is. Benjamin Barnes.

dear Ben Barnes

I was skimming through ONTD earlier today and one of the posts led me to this.

ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS, BEN?

Please come to New Jersey. Or New York. Or anywhere that I could drive to or use public transportation to. Because I want you, Ben Barnes. I want you bad.

Don’t you see how cute we’d look together? Our celebrity couple name would be Bena.

Hello, Ben Barnes. In my most honest opinion, you are the cutest guy in the world right now. I don’t think I have ever seen anyone as adorable as you. You’ve been on my radar ever since they announced that you’d be playing Prince Caspian in the latest Narnia movie, and I especially went to see Stardust opening night just to see you in it. Your four minutes were worth my eight dollars and fifty cents.

I find it satisfying just knowing that you exist. Every time I look at you smile in this pictures, these interviews, these commercials, I actually get butterflies and I smile. Your accent is so dreamy, British and sexy.

Oh snap, look what YouTube has provided me!

Ben Barnes? In a boy band? Do you know how fangirly I am at the moment?

The answer is very.

Keep being you, Ben Barnes. I will make you mine.
