Elisabetta Fantone — Celeb Crush

GuySpeed Staff — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 20:00:48 +0000

We don’t even know where to start — Elisabetta seems to stay pretty busy, and she’s remarkably good at everything, somehow. Also, she’s a babe. So there’s that. A Montreal native, Elisabetta discovered the arts in high school. She specifically embraced acting, and received her first lead role at the age of 15. All throughout high school [...]

Holly Willoughby is a beauty from our brothers over in Britain. She’s the host of BBC One’s ‘The Voice’ – the highest rated debut series ever the BBC. It’s exactly like the American version except the chairs spin in the opposite direction and they only sing Elton John songs. Jokes and jokes and jokes and [...]

Cheryl Cole — Celeb Crush

GuySpeed Editors — Wed, 27 Feb 2013 22:00:17 +0000

Funny story: Someone in our office suggested that we do Cheryl for crush today, and I googled Paula Cole. It was a confusing couple of minutes for all of us, but we’ve reached some clarity: This woman did not sing the ‘Dawson’s Creek’ theme song. That makes WAY more sense. Cheryl is a 29-year-old British [...]

Corinne Bishop — Celeb Crush

GuySpeed Editors — Tue, 26 Feb 2013 21:29:39 +0000

The 19-year-old daughter of actor Jamie Foxx was looking pretty grown up at this week’s Oscars. Jamie Foxx was not exactly a “looker” in his younger years, but Corinne definitely dodged the awkward bullet — she’s beautiful. Bishop has attended many events on the arm of her father, but recently she’s made the transition from daughter [...]

You may know her as simply “Maryse,” but today’s Celeb Crush’s full name is Maryse Ouellett. Wrestling fans will remember this smokin’ tall blonde babe from her run on WWE from 2006 to 2011.

Christmas Abbott — Celeb Crush

GuySpeed Editors — Wed, 20 Feb 2013 19:01:27 +0000

At 5'3" and 115 pounds, Christmas might not seem like much of a threat, but we wouldn't challenge her to an arm wrestling match: the first female NASCAR pit crew member's new gig involves speeding around a No. 10 Ford wielding an air gun, and racing to unbolt the lug nuts on two 60-pound tires, replacing them both in around 12 seconds. We uh, can't do that.

Carly Baker — Celeb Crush

Joe Student — Mon, 18 Feb 2013 23:00:40 +0000

New UFC Octagon Girl Carly Baker made her debut this weekend at UFC on FUEL TV 7.

Baker is a British-born model in [...]

GuySpeed Editors — Fri, 15 Feb 2013 20:00:40 +0000

Heidi is a 22-year-old model and motorcycle safety instructor who has gained quite a bit of notoriety on YouTube as “the cutest female motorcycle instructor.” We don’t disagree, though we haven’t met many others, and the DMV ladies aren’t much competition. Heidi’s self-proclaimed “great sense of humor” is easy to see in her videos, particularly [...]

You can see Teresa Palmer’s hot body currently in theaters in the zombie romance flick ‘Warm Bodies.’ And while the ladies may be obsessing over her co-star in that movie, ‘X-Men: First Class’ star Nicholas Hoult, we’re here to tell you that Teresa is the reason we’re heading out to the theater this weekend.

Robyn — Celeb Crush

Jackie Mancini — Thu, 07 Feb 2013 20:00:39 +0000

Call your girlfriend, it’s time you had the talk. She will never be as awesome as this weird Swedish dancing alien nymph who somehow pulls off a blonde bowl cut, and it’s not fair for you to know that and continue this charade. Everyone pretty much knows about Robyn, by now — she’s all over [...]
