'Make a tree good, and then its fruit will be good.'
Matthew 12:33
When I was putting together my King Kong themed posts, I had a long list of possible topics to cover. One of pieces I didn't have room for, featured the American cover and cover model from from issue16 of King Kong magazine. I decided to hold this piece, (and another you can see on PAGE 2 HERE:) until now. The others were focused on the big gorilla, this one was on another breed of sexy beast.
Although he is wearing fur, Deacon Phillippe certainly isn't terrifying anyone, if anything, most of us would gladly enjoy enjoy having his hands wrap around us. It's hard to believe the sone of Reese Witherspoon And Ryan Phillippe is now 20 years old. It doesn't seem that long ago I was lusting after daddy Phillippe in his many hot performances in the 90's.
Deacon wasn't born when we were all lusting after Phillippe's posterior in 54 and Cruel Intentions. Deacon was born in 2003, and for some odd reason, it feels less strange, and I feel a little less old, that he was around while I was lusting after his dad's derriere in Damages and Catch Hell.
Although he's followed his parents footsteps into the business, acting is Deacon's primary passion is music. In addition to having released several singles, he released his first full album, A New Year, earlier this year. Although I know nothing of their private relationship, from their public posts on social media, father and son appear to have a close relationship.
Phillippe by Alex La Cruz for King Kong Magazine:
'There’s a hint of danger in our shoot of actor, singer, songwriter Deacon Phillippe. And that’s the way it should be in the year he turns 20. A new decade deserves a reboot. Ditch the teenage angst, and repurpose that energy with a knowing sensuality.'
Deacon's fur shots, couldn't help but remind me a bit of the images, and scene of the photoshoot for Ryan's character in 54.
