National Tragedy: Kevin Durant Eats a Booger

Well, this makes me feel like an ass. This is the best Texas Basketball recruit of all-time doing something a toddler shouldn't do. At least you don't see VY eating boogers. Thanks to DChu, probably the biggest Texas-hater that I know, for this link. Check out the video below for the greatest ass slap of all time.



Damion James doesn't fuck around when it comes to attaboys on the backside. Here's the proof. AJ Abrams probably had a mark on his cheeks after that forceful show of affection.

OCD Classic: The Hip Hop Magician!

Uncle Majic AKA The Hip Hop Magician is one of my new favorite people. I caught his commercial on TV earlier today. We were catching up on Rock of Love 2 when this gem came on. This is a great commercial. I've transcribed the script below:
Uncle Majic: Hi I'm Uncle Majic the hip hop magician!
Shock-Kim: And I'm Shock-Kim the clown!

Uncle Majic: I'm who the celebrities call for their kids' birthday parties!
Shock-Kim: NO! I'm the one that the celebrities call for their kids' birthday parties!

Uncle Majic: We have
Uncle Majic: Magic shows
Uncle Majic: Balloon animals
Uncle Majic: Games for kids
Uncle Majic: Popcorn machine
Uncle Majic: Cotton candy machine
Uncle Majic: AND bouncing castle

Uncle Majic: Call for yo kid birthday party!
Uncle Majic: 718-892-0760

Uncle Majic: Who's your favorite uncle?
Kid: Uncle Majic!!


The commercial is classic. Best line is obviously "Call for yo kid birthday party". I'm definitely considering calling him for my birthday party next month. He actually looks like he's a nice guy. Shock-Kim the Clown is probably a very sad motherfucker. Does anybody disagree with that statement? I really don't think he's the one who celebrities call for their kids' birthday party. The magically appearing party components were amazing as well. I bet that's his cell number that he lists.



The website is great too. "While levitating dollar bills and cans of soda or pulling pigeons out of thin air, his DJ spins the hottest rap tunes". You should check out the photos sections. He has two good ones with Russell Simmons. The bottom line of "Who the Celebrities Call for their Kids Parties" is an excellent selling point. Who wouldn't be excited when Uncle Majik pulls up in his wrapped (possibly) 300Z? You also shouldn't forget that he's "As Seen of TV". Uncle Majic has a professional marketing team behind him and he has no problem showing off their creative prowess.

Mobile Post: Praying My Flight Is Delayed

Official Chris Duncan is an official dumbass. I locked my rental car keys
in the car. Now Im waiting for a locksmith to reactivate the Ford
Fusion. My flight is at 1:20 and its just about noon. Its going to
take about 30 minutesto get to the airport and another 30 to return
the car, take the shuttle, and check in. I'm possibly fucked. Wish me
luck.

Mobile Post: At a College Apt

I'm at a BU college apt. Nothing posses me off more than people not
having fun. Fuck Maxim. Fuck Heidi. Fuck any jackass that uses 10 oz of
gel every day.

Mobile Post: Eff Boston in its Effing A

I'm at Logan Airport waiting for the Budget Car Rental bus. Its pretty
approriately named since I have been standing here for 15 minutes.
I've seen two Thrifty buses and possibly three from Alamo.

At least it gives me time to admire the above poster of The Golden
Boy. Last time I was in Boston, the closest thing to something like
this was a regional Vitamin Water ad with Big Papi. The Patriots may
not have gone 19-0, but T Brady's handsome is undefeated all-time.

When is Tom Brady ever getting off of helicopters? Even if it did
actually happen, why is he wearing a trench coat? It would probably
be more effective if it said "one drop of Tom Brady ball-sweat in each
bottle". Those are championship balls.

I'm Famous! But That's a Relative Statement...

Yesterday, I had my first of two (or more?) posts published on the Playboy Blog. Because I'm quite the looker, the editorial staff felt like throwing me a bone and linking the article on the front page with my picture along with it. I feel like a pseudo-celebrity but not quite at the level of the guy from Crazy Town on Celebrity Rehab. Too bad most people will think that my name is Mark Frazier if they don't read the article (it is Playboy.com). My phone has been ringing off the hook... but that's because I misplaced it and was trying to locate it by sound (too bad it was on vibrate). Other than that, it's business as usual with Official Chris Duncan.
His name is Seth BinzerSeth Binzer from Celebrity Rehab

I'm sure everybody fucking hates that picture of me by now. I apologize.

While I'm riding high with the increased exposure of the Chris Duncan brand, I'm still not as "big" as Romeo Dev. I was linked to Romeo Dev yesterday by my co-worker Nikolai and then also saw his pictures on the screen of another co-worker. Nikolai linked me to FoxNews and Lisa was looking at the Daily Telegraph. I also saw that Romeo had a link to his Telegraph article on DrudgeReport. Drudge and FoxNews get around a million unique visitors a day. Romeo's article appeared on The Daily Telegraph, Xinhua News, The Daily Mail, and was syndicated on local Fox News websites. He was also on blogs like Boing Boing and Best Week Ever. That's a lot of eyeballs.

The man got a ridiculous amount of exposure for being a dwarf that also happens to be a bodybuilder. This guy is 50,000X more famous than I am and probably just as famous as Seth Binzer. I would have originally said that Romeo was twice as famous, but that was before I found out that he was in the only Martin Short movie I actually like... Clifford. I can't really count Jungle 2 Jungle and I haven't seen Three Amigos all the way through. You can look at the graph below that charts blog posts with Seth Binzer vs. Romeo Dev as topics. Obviously, Ice Rocket isn't the best measuring stick, but it at least gives us part of the story. There's no denying the spike that Romeo Dev has seen in the past few days. It's hilarious to me that Romeo chooses to rock a Slim Shady-like hairdo. Two people that saw this for the first time instantly said that he was fake. I've been called a lot of nasty things -- but nobody has ever claimed that I didn't exist. Maybe he's claymation.

Personally, I have a problem with the fact that many of the kids growing up (and those of us that are now avoiding adulthood) have top goals consisting of being rich or being famous. The problem with that is being rich and being famous are the results of accomplishment. You can't "do" either of them. And you can ask Britney whether or not fame is as wonderful as those people would imagine. I'm not at the point where I have to worry about paparazzi though. I'm not even the most famous Duncan at Playboy. There are actually three Duncans in the New York office. The other two are Richard Duncan (who pointed out a typo in my Mark Frazier post) and Aaron Duncan, a bigwig in our licensing department. Aaron Duncan still has me beat in the playboy+duncan Google search. It's going to be hard to climb above him since he's actually worth writing about. But then again, all I do is make posts about myself.

OCD INTERVIEW: Bodypaint Artist Mark Frazier

The first time I talked to Mark Frazier was near the end of 2007. During our initial phone call, it became pretty clear that he was our man. His experience spans 20+ years of bodypainting. As a pioneer in the art of bodypainting, there are few that can boast the same experience and quality of work. Mark has the prestigious title of "house" bodypainter for Playboy Mansion parties. We were able to lock him in for the Playboy Super Bowl Party 2008 (he had to fly back at 9AM to paint girls for the Mansion on Sunday). When OfficialChrisDuncan spoke to Mark, he was on his way to the Museum of Contemporary Art to discuss his next job where he'd be painting girls to replicate statues with an anime theme. Don't worry, they'll still be naked.

Official Chris Duncan and his girls

OCD: I'm sure that there are many men who are researching bodypainting books on Amazon after reading about you. How did you manage to turn painting women into a full time job?
BadassMF: The first time was in 1985 before Photoshop was an option. I was hired to paint photorealistic backgrounds for different shoots. At one job, I was asked by a photographer if I would paint the model's body with a design. I got the right answer to my question of "how much?" and decided to go for it. We experimented with tempera paint at first, but that ends up cracking and pulling hair out. Now, we use airbrushing equipment to get the right look.

OCD: How many girls would you say you've painted over the years?
BadassMF: Definitely over 1000. I try to paint about thirty girls each month. So in 2007, I probably painted almost 360 girls.

OCD: Who are some of the notable women that you've painted?
BadassMF: That depends. Most recently, I painted Tiffany Fallon for the February 2008 cover. I've also painted Sara Jean Underwood when she was on the Girls of the Pac 10 cover. So that's two Playmates of the Year right there. They also had me paint Vida Guerra as a tiger a few years ago. But I've even painted Christy Hemme before anybody had heard of her. She was actually an extra girl we used to create the model pose chart for the "real" models who were being photographed. So she would show up before them and get all of the poses done so the other models had exact instructions and pictures of what they needed to do.

OCD: Have you ever bodypainted any men?
BadassMF: No men, just women. We have a couple rules for our operation. Rule #1: Only paint girls. Rule #2: Refer to Rule #1. I guess we've painted men a few times, but it's never the full body. I've painted items like a chest plate and armor on guys. We did that for Victoria Fuller's husband. That's pretty much it though.

OCD: What has been your favorite design over the years?
BadassMF: Well, this style of art is pure capitalism. Obviously, I have to please a client just as in any other line of business. The Bellhop (model Blair O'Neal, interview below) was really neat for me. The first time is always good, but it can get old. I've painted about a million French maids. As an example, I'm working with NBC on some designs for Knight Rider. I really like the design we have with tire tracks on the model. But I can pretty safely assume that they'll want something with a Knight Rider logo t-shirt and headlights on the girl's boobs. So it always depends on the client. And we're not just talking Hef parties, we've painted girls for the biggest lesbian party in California.

OCD: What's it like to work for Hef?
BadassMF: Hef has very specific goals that he wants accomplished. For one, it has to look like real clothes -- he loves lingerie designs. Usually, he looks at 12-20 mock ups that I create and will pick about three from the new set. Then we'll go over the old designs I've done and he'll pick the rest from there. With Hef, it is most important that the design actually looks authentic.

OCD: I heard your whole family is involved with your bodypainting. Can you describe how that works?
BadassMF: My wife takes care of rhinestone application, any extra clothes (like hats), and detail work. My son and daughter are both airbrush painters.

OCD: That sounds like a delightful bonding experience. Do you need any extra help on your team? I'm available.
BadassMF: Well, get yourself to the Mansion and we can find a job for you. Can you hold a blowdryer and help with rhinestones?
OCD: I think I can figure it out... deal.

Blair O'Neal was one of Mark's models for bodypainting. Blair had worked a number of events during Super Bowl week, but she had never worked for Playboy.

OCD: You went to Arizona State which is famous for beautiful women. Is it everything it's cracked up to be?
Blair: Yes, there are a lot of pretty girls. I can't really gauge that though since I'm a girl. But I've heard from a lot of my guy friends that the girls are the reason they decided to apply to ASU.

OCD: How long have you been a model? Have you ever worked with Playboy before?
Blair: I went to Arizona State for four years and played for the golf team there. After I graduated, I went pro. I haven't worked for Playboy, but I was picked by Bridget for a fashion show in San Jose. Unfortunately, I had committed to the Lingerie Bowl and had to skip it. We had a red carpet "kickoff" event for that on the same night.

So this would be my first time working with Playboy. I actually didn't go to the casting to try to become a bodypainted model. But Katie from OneSource models was basically told me, "You have to do it! You have a HOT body and blonde hair, they'll love you!" I didn't think my boobs were big enough, but my friend Mary Lou was going to be bodypainted and she convinced me. She was the girl with the blue bottom and red top. I figured if I was ever going to do it for anybody, I should do it for Playboy.

OCD: Believe me, we all appreciate your enthusiasm. How long did it take to get painted?
Blair: I got there at 2PM and we were getting ready up until the event started. So it probably took about 8 hours to get it all done. They have to work on hair, makeup, and then the bodypaint. Mark and his team made me feel very comfortable though. We all did a shot before we had to go out and work the party.

OCD: Was this the longest time you've ever spent naked? Sleep and sex don't count.
Blair: Oh yeah. I was supposed to do the Lingerie Bowl, but I guess that doesn't really count either. The Lingerie Bowl actually got canceled because they couldn't get the permits though. I think I'm sick now because I was naked and cold for so long!

OCD: Did you like the bellhop outfit? I had to order the hat online.
Blair: It was great because it was Mark's first time to paint a bellhop. He said that my body was perfect for that design. It was something different and Mark liked how it turned out, so that's always good. People kept on asking me if I had a shirt on!
