Rounding out my “freebie list” of the five women I can take to bed without objection by my wife is English actress Nathalie Emanuel, who at 26 is the youngest of the group.
Song of the Day #2,646: ‘School Announcements’ – Gabrielle Union & Jimmy Fallon
The fourth name on my freebie list is not Jimmy Fallon, but rather Gabrielle Union, his partner in the sketch that serves as today’s Song of the Day.
Union has been on my radar for 15 years, starting with her supporting turn in the beloved romantic comedy Bring it On.
Song of the Day #2,645: ‘You Don’t Know’ – Rashida Jones
Ah Rashida Jones, you beautiful tropical fish. If this list were in order, the multi-talented Jones might well occupy the top spot.
The daughter of Quincy Jones and Peggy Lipton, Rashida Jones is a writer, director, actress, singer, songwriter, Harvard grad, and social and political activist — as funny and smart as she is beautiful.
Song of the Day #2,644: ‘Masterpiece’ – Gugu Mbatha-Raw (as Noni)
My second freebie list entry (though these are in no particular order) is Gugu Mbatha-Raw, the English actress who broke out in 2014 with excellent performances in the underrated films Belle and Beyond the Lights. Mbatha-Raw is back this holiday season playing the wife of Will Smith’s character in Concussion, a film about the NFL’s coverup of serious medical issues.
Song of the Day #2,643: ‘Redemption Song’ – Eddie Vedder & Beyoncé
Recently, I happened upon a couple of musical performances by women on my laminated freebie list. Fans of the classic sitcom Friends will recall that a “freebie list” names the five celebrities you can take to bed without repercussions from your spouse.
