He's awesome, but unlike Natalie Portman, people don't want to see his boobage.

You mean he didn't steal it in Road House already?

Well, he first had it after Dirty Dancing but after that ridiculous performance in Ghost I wiped my hands clean of him. If someone were to hand me a ticket to the Con, I would gladly give my heart back to him.
