YOU KNOW ME

Among the various crushes I had on guys in high school, one has the dubious distinction of having been employed to "act" on the long running Soap Opera, "Days of Our Life". Kyle Brandt was also on the Chicago season of "The Real World" which alone afforded me many a moment of laughter.

Keep that I never knew KB on a first name basis, but several of my elder high school friends did, and while the females I knew proclaimed their desire to have his baby, I kept my mouth shut and included him in my Secret Fantasy World. Bottom line: he was one of my first major gay crushes.

I still vividly remember the sight of him in his football uniform...(sigh), or just casually walking without effort, yet ever so stud-like, down the hall going to or from class. One year he dressed up like a Hippy for Halloween, and although the tie-dyed t-shirt and floppy hat were a lame approximation of a "Hippy" I remember he still looked smokin' HOT (amazing ass/blue eyes).

After high school various rumors spread that he had a secret gay life, and although I totally think they were bullshit, it had the effect of adding gasoline to an existing fire. The fact the he played ball in college did nothing to temper my fantasies....and then he was cast on "The Real World" and my desire promptly extinguished itself.

And it's not because he changed, he was still Kyle, but it's fucking bizarre "getting to know" someone you fantasized about via reality television. Watching this guy hook up with, or piss off the female cast-mates was akin to a mild out of body experience. Ever imagine seeing a crush shirtless (finally!) but on MTV? Exactly!

Then came the "Days of Our Lives" years, which apparently are still in effect. Honestly, I had never seen a clip of him on this show until today, while bored at home I was prompted by a conversation with an old friend (and KB's one time fellow student) to Google/YouTube him. What I found...was hilarious, to say the least.

Keep in mind I am not here to flame his acting abilities, you can be the judge of that for yourself, this is just hysterical in terms of my context. I hereby present to you:

KYLE BRANDT AND HIS HORNY LOVEMAKING*



*Actual YouTube title

KYLE BRANDT AND HIS HOT LOVE NOISES*



*Again, the actual YouTube title

"You know me...I'm ready to go, let's do it again..."

Those words will be on a constant loop in my mind for days.

Since I am a closeted Days of Our Lives fan, I have to say he was definitely not very good as Philip on there, the former and now current one is much better.

He was certainly good eye candy, which if Days does anything right, it is hiring hot guys to parade around shirtless.

Hahaha. My roommate watches Days of Our Lives for some odd reason, and I saw him on there once and was like isn't that the douchebag from the Real World?

Wow he makes good eye candy.

Who cares or not if he is on TV, YOU GOT TO SEE YOUR CRUSH TOPLESS. Thats always good.

What's so wrong with having your HS crush go shirtless on MTV? I know its sleezy cause everyone else is seeing it but I can't expect a personal striptease either.

Ooo, that would be great. But, it will never, ever happen.
