Simeon: The Man Purse of a Pickup Artist

Simeon "kino-escalates" with my 'What's In Your Man Purse?' business cards.

Name:  Simeon Moses

Occupation:  Bartender/Pickup Artist

Age: 28 at the time of the interview, though he just turned 29.

Zodiac Sign:  Leo

Hometown:  "It's complicated -- Home is where my ass is."

 

(Okay, so it's been over a month since my last post.  I'm sorry.  But this contest will definitely make up for it.  I've got a lot more coming up, too!)

I LOVE VH1's The Pickup Artist. I really do. I've seen both seasons one and two, and am ready for a season three. Can you imagine my surprise when I showed up as a background actor to the set of independent film, 'In World War' and recognized the most recent winner of one of my most favorite reality shows, ever? (Other favorite reality shows include Millionaire Matchmaker, the first season of Making the Band and Project Runway, of course.) Can you imagine my glee when I noticed that he was also sporting a pretty decent man purse? I was bit overcome, really.

I'm fairly new to this background acting thing and didn't expect to recognize anyone remotely recognizable in this local production, and I just didn't have a plan for how to react for such a double whammy. So I chilled out a bit, and just took some time to make sure that it was really Simeon from 'The Pickup Artist Season 2' (it was.) And I thought to myself, how random that just a few weeks ago I was watching him win this reality show on TV (well, on the iMac since we hardly ever watch things on the TV anymore) and now here he was standing in front of me.  I kept thinking to myself, 'Is he going to try and pickup on someone HERE?', 'Is he going to be totally different in person, than from the show?', 'Should I tell him that I recognize him?', 'Will I get an opportunity to interview him for the blog?'

Murse Matchup:  FABIO!

Guest blogger "The Always-Hungry Husband" here! Today, as our Head Mursenary prepares for a weekend satchel safari, it is my privilege to peruse the Submit-A-Man archives and present to you a Fantasy Four that breaks with tradition not only in its authorial composition, but also in its conspicuous lack of last names.

That’s right, ladies and gentlemen (and probably a lady again): Fabio.

Thank you Akila for suggesting Fabio to our Submit-A-Man. While he’s never been spotted with a man purse to our knowledge, it’s clear that a man of such prodigious accomplishments must have an appropriate accessory both for the carrying of things, and, um, the looking of good. A metaphor, for your consideration: just as ol’ ‘sinistra e destra’ form the strong foundation of a triumphal Viking conquest-pose, so must Fabio’s manbag maintain the perfect balance of rugged masculinity and feminine sensibility that has made Fabio the undisputed king of romance.

Well, I guess, technically the title of "King of Romance" is disputed by one Englebert Humperdinck, but I don’t think this will become a dispute of or anything. Anyway – on to the show!

Fantasy Four: David Beckham

Updated on by Registered CommenterWhat's In Your Man Purse?

Both David and Victoria "Posh" Beckham are well known for their lavish and controversial purse-carrying lifestyle. An icon of metrosexual style, many point to the adonis-like footballer as the leader of the man purse revolution. So of course, WhatsInYourManPurse.com is happy to feature David Beckham and his many man purses.

WhatsInYourManPurse.com reader (and my sister), Bernadette, eagerly submit a profile for Becks through the Submit-A-Man form. Here's her Fantasy Four:

Fantasy Four: Joel Madden

 

Joel Madden With Gigantic Gucci Man Satchel

Here are my guesses:

1. Throat Lozenges

2.  Journal w/ lists like "My Next Tattoo","Angsty Song Ideas", "Badass Baby Names"

3.  Black T-shirt Fabric swatches for clothing line.

4.  Nicole Ritchie (It's a huge bag!)

 

Any other ideas?

Fantasy Four: Hugh Jackman

Hugh Jackman With Sleek, Yet Rugged, North South Man Messenger

Okay here are my guesses:

1. A photo of his adorable daughter.
2. A copy of People's 2008 Sexiest Man Alive edition. Wouldn't you?
3. A beard trimmer. He has, afterall, been labelled an "Hirsute Hero", and is rapidly bringing back the beard to the mainstream with hordes of admirers.
4. Anti-Perspirant (because apparently, according to Nicole Kidman, Australian men are a different breed and sweat more than the other breeds of men.)

What do you think?
