Leave it to Leonor #84
This week, I am thinking about tournaments. Several months ago at a small, but rambunctious, Coven Ab, Steph and I began to discuss the overwhelming number of Chrises in Hollywood. This is well-trod territory, but as we got more impassioned/drunker, I pulled out a notebook and began to make list of all the Chrises with the intention of making a March Madness-style tournament bracket.
I've always loved the various March tourneys across the internet, Jezebel, The Fug Girls and, of course, The Tournament of Books, so I figured this newsletter should have one.
After I explained the concept of divisions, we were going to break them up into four groups "heartthrobs", "superheroes", ""franchise" and "other", but it was became clear very quickly that it wouldn't work. Hemsworth is in three of those. Eventually, we decided on a top seed for each division:
Hemsworth for Hot, Pine for Distinguished, Evans for Cute, Pratt for Funny. We then tried to categorize everyone else from the list into those categories. As we got drunker still and began to run out of Chrises (who knew that was possible?) there was some googling and some creative choices, but finally we had enough for The Tournament of Chris.
How you choose your Chris is up to you. Maybe it's hotness, maybe it's charm, maybe it's humor, go with your heart, your head or other things.
The polls will be open until Thursday, March 29th at 10 am.
I'll announce the winner in LITL #86.
Go vote for your favorite Chris, share with your friends and in the meantime let me know if we left off your favorite Chris.
