Celebrities Eating Hot Dogs: LeAnne Rimes Edition

Every move LeAnne Rimes makes in public seems to be a calculated quest for attention. She's developed a surefire method of attracting the attention she yearns for by utilizing the power of bikinis and Twitter. Step 1. Upload multiple photos of herself traipsing around on the beach in a skimpy bikini. Step 2. Sit back and wait for the photos to be posted all over the web. Step 3. Watch the comment forums explode with concern over her "scrawny" body, count how many hundreds of times the hyperventilating concern trolls remark that she should "eat a sandwich". Step 4. Laugh at all the "haters" who are just jealous of her slim figure. Step 5. Allow herself to be photographed hoovering a hot dog at a ball game, making sure to "seductively" lick her fingers so she'll be guaranteed to be noticed and then, Step 6. Use the opportunity to prove she does indeed eat, in fact, she eats like a pig and yet somehow manages to look hot in a bikini and all of you are so jealous of her hotness. Medium: graphite and digital paint.

Celebrities Eating Hot Dogs: George Clooney Edition

This is hard to admit, but I have a photo torn from Star magazine years ago of George Clooney eating a hot dog. It's been taped up on my easel for years. Once it fell off and got trampled upon and has had paint spilled on it, but the crumpled and worn photo still remains in its rightful place and is always present with each new illustration I crank out.  Twisted, I know. Medium: graphite and digital paint.
