And the Final Jeopardy Answer is: (a) William Shatner, (b) George Hamilton, (c) Lee Majors, and (d) David Hasselhoff.
Who are the KINGS OF MACHO CHEESE?
Just a little level of royalty I came up with a while back, although Lee Majors was an admittedly recent add-on. My criteria for this Pantheon is simple. A prospective KOMC must satisfy three of the following:
1. SAG-credits for participating in an iconic example of shameless pop-culture machismo (e.g. Shatner as James Tiberuius Kirk, Hamilton as Evel Knievel);
2. Unparalleled ability to make a complete arse of his own identity, and not just a character (e.g. Hasselhoff throughout the 2000s);
3. Unfathomable celebrity and/or success spanning at least three decades (Shatner broke the mold); and
4. At least ONE pitiful attempt into more musical-based arts ("Dancing with the Stars" counts, along with majors singing the theme to "The Fall Guy").
Are you telling me there's some 55 year old French ladies somewhere in this world that find this hot and sexy?
ReplyDeleteI will never get the whole Hasselhoff thing.
It's still as scary as the first time I tried to watch it.
ReplyDeleteI just don't understand.
