"I just walk up to them [younger guys] and say look, its not going to be as gross as you think" says one of the ladies who host "The Cougar Den," a Saturday Night Live skit that featured Cameron Diaz.
Thank you Demi Moore for kick starting the trend. You made it so uber-chic and it's only what men have been doing for ages. Now the tables are turned and I think the guys are hopping mad. Witness a recent sports show when Charles Barkely addressed Dwayne Wades' alleged tryst with Star Jones. "Shes a cougar, she's a cougar" they all resounded. With irony, you could not help but notice, the guys saying this were all closer to Star Jones' age. Sour grapes? Perhaps, gentlemen?
After dating less than two months, Mariah Carey, 38, and Nick Cannon, 27, got hitched in an impromptu island ceremony. The New York Post reported that the nuptials took place at Carey's private estate off Eleuthera. Carey owns an estate on Windermere Island, which is an exclusive Bahamian island where the British royals vacation. Kudos to Jennifer Aniston, 39 and John Mayer, 30. Their sighting was first reported by the Miami Herald.
Let's not forget Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry, or Kim Catrall and her new beau chef Alan Wyse, who is 23 years younger. But the biggest trendsetter of all, not content to be maried to someone 10 years her junior, is caught canoodling with Justin Timberlake. According to New York Mag - The chemistry between Madonna and Justin Timberlake in the steamy video for her new single "4 Minutes" seems to last and last. After her 38-minute show last week at Roseland in NYC, where Timberlake joined her for that song, the two headed to the Box for Steven Klein's birthday party, where their coziness was apparent to all.
They sat up front, Madonna flanked by Klein and Timberlake, watching the nightclub's usual naughtiness; the nude performer who "birthed" a Russian nesting doll seemed to especially affect Timberlake, who gave the feat a standing ovation. When the band played Britney Spears' "Gimme More" and asked the crowd to shout the "more!" part, both Madge and J.T. played along. But when a photographer tried to shoot them together, Timberlake signaled to his bodyguard, who shined a flashlight at the camera, making a photo impossible.
Later, the VIP area became a dance floor and they boogied together, representatives of the pop superrace.
Let's just say for this union to actually work and elicit cheers not jeers, you must look amazing or fairly amazing as a cougar. Everything must be where it is supposed to be (you know what I mean). Otherwise you run the the risk of Ugh! Witness the coverage of Star Jones and her alleged basketball boytoy.
