Let’s get weird for a minute, shall we?

I’ve totally got a crush on a girl. That girl? The chick who plays Nick George’s wife on Dirty Sexy Money.

I don’t know what it is, but I’m totally gay for this lady. The weird thing is it’s got nothing to do with her character’s personality. Not that the character is grating in any way (she’s pretty much solely a moral compass for Nick) but I just like looking at her.

She just so pretty. I want to tousle her pixie hair and tap her on the button nose.

Don’t worry, though. I’m not going to stop stalking Nestor Carbonell any time soon. Upon further research, though, I’m alarmed to find out that she has an illustrious career in nerdery, including a regular role on JAG, a role in Dungeon and Dragons: The Movie as well as two episodes on Star Trek: Voyager where she looked like this.

I was tuning into some show — I think it was Dirty Sexy Money (which, by the way, I’m totally into now) — when I noticed a familiar song on a Ford ad. A few quick Google searches confirmed my suspicions and I discovered that Band of Horses had licensed their song The Funeral for the spot.

Here’s the clip which, as you can see, was made by putting the camera up to the TV.[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/s6vohX4HV10" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /]

And, if you’re curious, here’s the video proper.[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/ibE7IqEjni4" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /]

Again, I’d like to lend my support for any worthy artist who can make a buck off the corporate teat. If it keeps PBR in their hipster bellies and puts fuel in the tour van, I’m all for it.
