Marat Safin's last minute trip to Dubai was cut short today (no pun intended - I swear!).
The Russian giant, who took a wildcard into the tourney, was defeated by a still-injured Richard Gasquet 3-6, 7-5, 3-6 in the first round. The Frenchie headcase will face either Serb Viktor Troicki or Simone "The Beautiful" Bolelli in the next round.
Good win for the struggling Reeshard - blah, blah, blah - but can we talk about Marat's latest buzz cut? Do we like him better with his longer locks??
DO TELL!

Wild haired or freshly shaved Marat always bring the sexy for me. I'm gonna miss him when he retires.
ReplyDeleteHAHA the last pic is classic Marat. :)
ReplyDeleteMe too Jade. I wish he would have won or at least not gave that third set away so meekly. The man is just gorgeous, and I love the hair cut. I'd rub his head .... ahem.
ReplyDeleteI kind of miss the wild hair, but maybe this is more suitable now he's older. He's a beautiful man whatever he does... although perhaps he could do with a tad less facial fuzz.
ReplyDeleteMarat always looks uber hot, IMO. Wild hair, buzz cut, scruffy beard, clean shaven. Whatever. YUM!
ReplyDeleteYES!! my baby won! He better keep it up.

Am I the only person for whom Marat does nothing???

I prefer the long hair. But then again I'd have me a bit of Marat with or without hair. Just putting it out there.
ReplyDeleteNo neil you're not alone. Kinda the same here.
ReplyDeleteneil/sonja: EGADS! you're kidding me!! no to each his own of course but...EGADS! you're kidding me!!
ReplyDelete*sits in shock*
*sits with Rich*
ReplyDeleteThere are two "M's" I'd never turn down. Marat and Money. Unless of course the alternative is more Marat and more money. Just sayin'
Like. A little jarhead-ish. Very hot.
ReplyDeletenow he looks like Kevin Federline...
ReplyDeleteNO WAY HE LOOKS LIKE K-FED! Check it:

*not convinced*
i dont know he looks fine both ways but maybe this way more becaus he is more like a grown up. *wakes up from dream*
ReplyDeleteI gotta admit, I'm always a little depressed when he lops off those curls, but I'll take him either way ;-)
ReplyDeletePamela, this raises an interesting dilemma! If you had to choose between money or Marat, which would it be?
ReplyDeletePersonally I wouldn’t kick Safin out of bed for ANY amount, whatever state his hair is in. One look at the man and you just know you’re in for the shag of your life. It’s funny cos I didn’t fancy him at all when he was younger.
I know this is supposed to be a “curls vs crew cut” thing, but I just had to get that off my heaving bosom...
Darcey - HA for the heaving bosom! Good point though. But what about Marat FOR some money. The boys gotta eat and he's not winning much these days (plus he's def partied tons of funds away.)
ReplyDeleteRich - I'm sure I couldn't afford Marat, even if he offered me a discount!
ReplyDeleteAnd on the flip side, my mind can barely imagine the untold cash to be made as Marat's pimp. "It is a truth universally acknowledged", if you're the wife of a rich Russian oligarch, you must be in want of a toyboy - and Safin could pretty much name his price in this arena.
No, it's far more straightforward if I become Marat's ho exclusively. I'm blonde for starters. And if he's really as broke as all that, I'll let him run a tab. So long as I get to live in Monte Carlo!
I kinda miss the curls...
ReplyDeleteSHORT!
ReplyDeleteMarat is the hottest...with or without the locks; he is the total package. There are other players who are hot but Marat is more than just a pretty face and sexy body....he is a superstar.
