www.stuff.co.nz/stuff/4486512a1860.htmlNew Bond goes metrosexual with fake tan
FAKING IT: An image from the new James Bond movie, Quantum of Solace, staring Daniel Craig.
Daniel Craig has had a lorry load of fake tan and moisturiser delivered to the set of the new James Bond movie, Quantum of Solace.
The 40-year-old actor is determined to look his best when he reprises his role as the suave British spy, so has stocked up on beauty products.
A source said: "Daniel is the first meterosexual Bond and more than any other 007 he is attractive to both men and women. He knows he has to capitalise on his unisex appeal and had a lorry load of cosmetics delivered to his trailer.
"As well as fake tan, bronzer, eye cream, cleanser, toner and moisturiser, Daniel has been having regular manicures."
Daniel - who sent pulses racing when he donned a pair of tight blue swimming trunks in his first Bond movie 'Casino Royale' - has also employed several screen tricks to give him a more youthful complexion and toned appearance.
The insider added to Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "He regularly uses the gym on set but to maximise results, baby oil is a well-known trick to increase muscle definition.
"He uses eyedrops to make the whites of his eyes appear brighter and has been told to splash his face with ice-cold water before filming to close the pores and make him look younger."

Isn't this the type of stuff we should've been reading if Brosnan had continued making films? What happen to the "younger 007" that EON claimed they needed to get?

He looks different every time I see him, and he looked different in every scene in Casino Royale. Pierce Brosnan was attacked for being a metrosexual a lot, so it's funny that Daniel Craig should be one.  |

Hello, Thanks for the post, Harry! Very interesting stuff. I know first hand that there are men who definately go GA-GA over Daniel. I brought up James Bond at work one day...and when I mentioned Daniel Craig, my associate's jaw just about hit the floor. He then went into very honest explanation of how great it was to see "the swim suit scene"!  (I'm a sales associate in expensive men's wear and suits) However, I always ask women who the most "handsome" Bond actor was. Older women (and some young ones too) scream about Sir Sean. Mostly though, the female consensus is that Pierce is "sooo hot"! I'm always surprised when I ask women about Timothy Dalton. I get such a flat "he was alright" response. One said "his eyebrows are too thick". It's funny. Timothy has a huge following of women across the world who belong to the "Timothy Dalton Chat Group". They adore both his acting, and "incredible good looks". Good on them! Timothy never gets near the recognition that he so richly deserves. Take Care! P.S. None of the femme fetalles ever mention poor George or Sir Rog. However, Maude Adams ("The Man With The Golden Gun", "Octop%$$y") has gone on record as saying Roger Moore "has to be one of the most handsome men ever seen on screen." Good on you Maude! Those incredible and oh, so verrry sexy cheeckbones of yours STILL give me butterflies in my stomach!!! ;D |

Good on you Maude! Those incredible and oh, so verrry sexy cheeckbones of yours STILL give me butterflies in my stomach!!! ;D I had a pretty big crush on Maude as a kid- particularly in TMWTGG. She also provided one of my favorite moments in that "Bond Girls Are Forever" doc. After she and d'Abo have been discussing how politically-incorrect Bond was in the past, they watch the scene where Bond barges in and forces a kiss on Octopussy. Adams then points out something like, "See...I'm not even sure my character wanted to go to bed with him there!" Just another example of why Bonds used to have more fun. ;D |

I think there is an article on the Alternative007 main webpage which explains that Daniel Craig is a "metrosexual" and not a throwback to the real men of yesteryear.
I can't remember which one - maybe a moderator can give a link.
