‘Game of Thrones’ Star Could Be the Next James Bond

Richard Madden; Daniel Craig as Bond

Richard Madden played Robb Stark, the King in the North, on Game of ThronesHe was one of the main characters until Stark’s brutal death (Thrones doesn’t have any other kind of death) in season three.

So, to be fair, the guy has been out of the Thrones picture for a while and acting up a storm in the UK and elsewhere. He’s been doing such a good job, there are credible reports he’s in line for one of the biggest roles any English actor could play: James frickin’ Bond.

Yeah, this guy (Daniel Craig as Bond)

Since it became clear that Daniel Craig was moving on after the upcoming Bond film, rumors have been flying about where the movie franchise might go with its lead role. Would it go to Superman Henry Cavill? Perhaps even ridiculously charismatic Idris Elba?

It won’t go to a woman, though—producer Barbara Broccoli made that clear.

So here we are with Madden, whom the Sun reports has made a powerful impression on Broccoli with the title role in the UK TV drama Bodyguard

The Sun quoted an unnamed source close to Broccoli, who said Madden is a “serious” candidate for the role. “Not only is he on top of Barbara’s list,” said the source, “but she is preparing to offer the role.”

James Bond rumors are a dime-a-dozen, so this should be taken with a grain of salt. Every actor mentioned with a possible future as 007 has seemed like a plausible choice and so far there’s nothing definitive about any of them taking the role. 

No matter who plays Bond after Craig, we’ve still got one more round to go with him in the title role. The 25th Bond film premieres on February 14, 2020.

Size Really DOES Matter When It Comes to Male Fertility

Here’s the question of the century: Does size really matter? 

Well, when it comes to sexual pleasure, many women say no, because it’s more about the way you work it and how attractive you are than how big your penis is.

But according to new research presented this week at the American Society for Reproductive Medicine conference in Colorado, the answer is yes; size does matter…when it comes to fertility.

Apparently, men who aren’t too well-hung also tend to have more problems with fertility compared to men who are well endowed.

The study, conducted by researchers at the University of Utah, Salt Lake City, recruited over 800 participants from a sexual health clinic and tracked them for three years.

The results revealed that men who struggle with infertility have, on average, a penis that is one centimeter shorter than those who don’t have reproductive issues. To be more specific, the average penis length was found to be 12.5cm (4.9 inches) for infertile men, and 13.4cm (5.3 inches) for fertile men. 

“It may not be a striking difference but there was a clear statistical significance,” says head researcher Dr. Austen Slade.

Slade believes the reason for the relationship between a shorter penis size and infertility is likely due to underlying problems, such as hormonal disturbances or imbalances, or problems in the testes, which can lead to smaller penile length.

However, he also assures everyone that if you have a smaller peen but are otherwise completely healthy, there’s nothing to worry about.

“This is the first study to identify an association between shorter penile length and male infertility,” Slade says. “It’s possibly a manifestation of congenital or genetic factors that predispose one to infertility. For now, men with shorter penises don’t need to worry about their fertility.

“It remains to be determined if there are different penile length cut-offs that would predict more severe infertility,” he concluded.

Elon Musk Is Getting Into the Booze Business, Trademarks ‘Teslaquila’

It looks like $20 million fines from the SEC and a demotion from Tesla chairman to CEO haven’t had had much effect on weed-smoking billionaire wild man Elon Musk. He may be branching out into the liquor biz with a trademark for his own “Teslaquila.”

That’s just what it sounds like: tequila—or as the patent says, “distilled agave liquor”—with the Tesla logo slapped on the bottle. See above.

Elon Musk; Delicious tequila shots

If true, this means die-hard Tesla customers could one day get drunk as hell on Teslaquila then speed down the Interstate in a self-driving Tesla roadster torching other cars with a Tesla flamethrower. 

The guy who incurred those serious SEC penalties after making lame 420 weed jokes about Tesla stock prices probably has this exact scenario in mind.

Here are more details from CNBC

Teslaquila first appeared as part of an April Fool’s prank in which Musk said on Twitter that his electric car company was going bankrupt and that he had been found “passed out against a Tesla Model 3, surrounded by ‘Teslaquila’ bottles.”

A few days later, he posted a photo on Instagram of a tequila bottle with a Teslaquila label plastered on it.

Representatives for Tesla did not immediately respond to CNBC’s request for comment.

Those company reps were probably too busy sighing and phoning co-workers saying, “yeah, he’s at it again.”

Elon Musk has a history of making jokes into reality. He said he’d blast a Tesla into space. He did it. He made his own damn flamethrowers for fun, apparently. Then there’s the Boring Co., which he claims came about after he got annoyed with LA traffic and wished he could just bore a big tunnel to wherever he wanted to go.

For now, it’s just a trademark and an image on Twitter. Hell, Musk might have done all these things after a few shots of tequila. 

If Teslaquila is real, though, Musk’s love for cannabis might mean a follow-up of cannabis-infused tequila. Hopefully.

Not to encourage him too much, but it’s worth pointing out that if he did create a 420-themed spirit after Teslaquila hit the market, he would definitely be in the running for the crown of “America’s Most Beloved Billionaire.”

Here’s How Michael B. Jordan Got Totally Jacked for ‘Creed II

Ahead of the release of Creed II, the latest Rocky installment’s trailer and posters have made one thing abundantly clear about Michael B. Jordan’s Adonis Creed: He’s a muscle-bound monster. 

Like Josh Brolin of Deadpool 2 and Rob McElhenney of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, the movie star enlisted the expertise of a celebrity trainer to get in power-punching shape. 

Men’s Health spoke with Corey Calliet, the same trainer who helped Jordan get superhero-sized play Killmonger in Black Panther.   

“We time our projects, so we used Killmonger to get ready for Creed II,” Calliet told MensHealth.com. “I bulked him up on Killmonger, and then used that bulk to shred him down for Creed II.”

Jordan’s cut got him down to 190 bulging pounds of what looks like pure muscle. It was no easy feat. 

“My goal with [Jordan] is to always look better than the last time he was on-[screen],” Calliet said. “We always go until we can’t go anymore.”

Because Jordan had already learned to box for 2015’s Creed, preparation for the sequel was less about working on fundamentals and more focused getting his body as chiseled as possible. 

“We knew how to box already, we knew how that felt,” said Calliet. “This was about actually getting him to look better than the last time.”

“We would actually do those exercises at home, in the gym, wherever,” Calliet added. “To look a certain kind of way, you’ve got to bring the intensity up.”

What a Beautiful Girl Wants: Nadia Mejia

There’s a lot more to Nadia Mejia than her jaw-dropping looks. 

The Diamond Bar, California-raised stunner starred in her first national modeling campaign when she was just 17 after being scouted at the U.S. Open of Surfing. Three years later, she was crowned Miss California USA 2016 and ascended to the top 5 in Miss USA 2016. 

Mejia’s pageantry success led to more modeling opportunities with fashion brands  Skechers and Guess, the latter of which she describes as her “dream brand.”

But what makes Mejia a true multihyphenate is that she’s also an up-and-coming musician. She undoubtedly inherited a voice from her father, “Rico Suave” singer Gerardo Mejia. 

See why her self-released debut single, “Walk on Water,” amassed over 600,000 views less than two months: 

Those accolades are all impressive, but you won’t find Mejia’s proudest accomplishment on her résumé. 

“Truthfully, using my social media following for good and inspiring young woman today to love the skin their in is my biggest achievement and the most rewarding,” she tells Maxim.  

Read on to find out what makes Nadia tick.  

How can a man catch your attention?

By being funny and authentic. If he has an ego, he needs to GO.

What’s the worst pick-up line you’ve ever heard?

I’ve heard so many bad lines, I can’t pinpoint just one. But I do have so many men who follow me that have a foot fetish. They don’t ask for nudes. They ask for pictures of my long toes.

Yikes. How do you let a man know you’re interested?

It is extremely obvious whether or not I’m into you. I just get my flirt on—a little arm touching and smirks are my give away.

Good to know. What’s your ideal date?

Well, since fall is just around the corner, I would love to go on a beautiful evening hike and have a picnic with some pumpkin flavored goodies, good music and cuddling.

How festive! What about a man turns you on the most?

HUMILITY! I love a man whose career success doesn’t define him as a person. So many people in LA have the tendency to brag, and it’s my biggest pet peeve.

When do you feel sexiest?

I feel sexiest when I’m focusing my energy on my career and my health and seeing all of my hard work pay off. And lipstick… lipstick always makes me feel sexy.

How do you snap the perfect selfie?

It’s all about lighting and angles. Window light is the go to. A little cleavage and pouty lips with a slight eyebrow raise are usually my photos with the most likes. But don’t show too much cleavage! Then it becomes trashy over sassy.

We couldn’t agree more. What’s your favorite thing to do in the bedroom?

My dad’s very active on social media. He’s probably reading this. I guess my husband will have to find out (I know my pops is proud of this answer.)

He should be. What should a man never do in the bedroom?

Talk about my dad.

Ha! Any sexy fantasies?

I want to join the Mile High Club one day.

Lastly, what’s your guiltiest pleasure?

Anything dark chocolate.
