One week after the Lust List … Jonathan Owens
Thursday, February 14th, 2008
The Creative Loafing Lust List affects winners in numerous ways. Office legend tells of finalists going on and pursuing acting careers, meeting future husbands and wives, etc. Marquis de Sade was CL’s first Lust List winner back when the paper was known as Le Livre de Décadence and distributed solely in prisons. He went on to become an acclaimed author and hedonist!
Here’s what Jonathan Owens, one of this year’s selections, said in an e-mail about how his life has changed since being praised in print for his looks.
Everything was pretty positive; a few co-workers have the page posted on their wall. I have noticed the gears cranking in a few people’s heads as they try to figure out why I look familiar…but then again, according to too many people, I look like Charlie from lost and some guy on the Young and the Restless…so it may be unrelated.
Go forth, young man! Daytime television awaits you!
