Who Can Eat Just One: William Levy In Sabritas Chips Commercial

Our beloved Sexiest Man Alive William Levy recently shot a pair of commercials for Sabritas potato chips for Spanish-language TV. Translation: Mmm mmm good! The video for the first, in which a female cop gently taps him on the behind, appears below. Think it's too late for me to enroll in the Police Academy?

Meanwhile, Levy began a run in the play "Perfume de Gardenias" in October at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles. It appears his ambitions to conquer Hollywood—particularly after turning down a role in hottie stripper flick Magic Mike—have fallen flat. Following his role in "Triumph of Love," which wrapped last summer, he reported to webbie Que Telenovelas that he does intend to return to the genre in the future.

In 2012, Will will also star in and produce a new TV series, whose pilot will be taped in January. He's also slated for a leading role in a remake of "Cuna de lobos," a new series scheduled for the first half of the year on Channel of the Stars.

Below the video, check out a flood of newish photos.

Have A Salacious November 2011: From William Levy

Just one more month of deliciousness from the William Levy 2011 calendar. He's been awfully quiet of late (particularly since daftly rejecting a role in upcoming Magic Mike). Below, our latest pic parade, courtesy of William Levy World.

Smoking Nun August 2011 Daily Feature Poll: And The Results Are...

Last month, we posted a poll on The Smoking Nun in the interest of evolution.

For the past several months, I've enjoyed posting a morning NYC Vintage Image of the Day, along with our weekend Model Perfect hot guy feature, the usual photo journal, occasional features about music and rants & raves about pop culture, politics, the dismal economy and so on...

In our poll, we queried about whether there was any particular interest in one of three daily features: NYC Vintage Image, Hot Guys or a Smoking Nun take on Radio & Records. There wasn't. At all. Over the course of three weeks, 26 unique votes were cast.

Radio & Records garnered 17 votes (65%), NYC Vintage 12 votes (46%), and Model Perfect: Hot Men tied with the riveting option of "Other," with 2 votes each. A combo of all fostered 4 votes (15%).

And so the results are... fuck it. As you can see below, the most popular posts on The Smoking Nun over the past month—aside from a legitimate review of Darren Hayes' new single "Black Out the Sun"—are about Rodiney Santiago and William Levy. I'll be taking a moment now. What the hell am I doing here?

Stripper Flick 'Magic Mike' Continues To Add To Hottie Cast

Steven Soderbergh's highly anticipated upcoming stripper flicker Magic Mike continues to add to its cast, although it appears the A-level is complete and they're now signing on bottom feeders—and the ladies.

In addition to yummy Channing Tatum, Matthew McConaughey, Alex Pettyfer, Joe Manganiello and Matt Bomer, People en Español reports that full-figured Mexican-American comedian Gabriel Iglesias, somewhat known for his routine I'm Not Fat... I'm Fluffy and Hot & Fluffy, will play a club DJ. What a shame it's not Enrique or Julio Jr.

In addition, some women have joined Magic Mike, including Cody Horn, who will play the sister of an up-and-coming male dancer played by Pettyfer and Tatum's love interest. Horn is the daughter of former Warner Bros. Entertainment president/COO Alan Horn, who has used daddy's connections for bit parts on NBC’s The Office and FX’s Rescue Me, and a role alongside Jake Gyllenhaal in drama End of Watch.

Model/"actress" Riley Keough, 22, the daughter of Lisa Marie Presley (and obviously granddaughter of Elvis Presley), has also signed on. She co-starred in The Runaways with Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning.

In other Magic Mike tidbits: Lindsay Lohan had approached Soderbergh for a role in the movie, but was turned down flat... Jessica Biel refused an offer to be involved... Rumors continue to swirl that Demi Moore may have an integral role... Soderbergh is apparently casting three women to accompany the boys in the club... The director has alluded to full-frontal nudity as a must-have in a stripper flick. And how!

Of course, we were dealt a blow last week when a news report that William Levy had joined the cast proved to be premature. The telenovela actor had been offered a role—which surely would have propelled him to mainstream stardom—but inexplicably turned it down. Dumb!

The $20 million film, billed on IMDb as a comedy, is due in 2012.

William Levy Refuses Role Of A Lifetime In Soderbergh's 'Magic Mike'

In a move that would have propelled him from minor-league Spanish-language telenovela hottie to legitimate Hollywood actor, William Levy has inexpicably passed on the role of a lifetime: joining the all-star cast of Oscar-winning director Steven Soderbergh's Magic Mike.

We reported Friday that he was joining the film, which stars Channing Tatum as a lap-dancing Florida stripper, along with Alex Pettyfer, Matt McCounaughey and Matt Bomer.

According to People en Espanol, he is instead "looking for other projects in Hollywood." Levy's manager Gladys Gonzalez—who should be fired for not guiding her client to stardom—confirmed that he received an offer to appear in the sexy flick, but "will not be involved."

So Will would rather always be known as "the guy in the Jennifer Lopez video"? As we know, Levy stirred a maelstrom of publicity as the entertainer's delicious beach boy in "I'm Into You," soon after which it was announced that JLo and Marc Anthony were divorcing. The ensuing press is the best thing that ever happened to Levy's career.

I am disappointed, but more so, dumbfounded. William has never shied from parading around in his skivvies and certainly has the bod to make the moves. Boo, hiss.

The Smoking Nun's Daily Feature Is Up To You: VOTE NOW!

Don't forget, cool cats.  I've posted a poll along the top right column here allowing you to vote on a daily feature intended to ever-so-gently coerce you to return to The Smoking Nun on a regular basis. What will it be: NYC Vintage? A Male Model A Day? My take on Radio and Records? Or something I've not even considered?

Polling closes Aug. 31 and so far... the response is utterly humiliating. Do you really want nothing but Rodiney Santiago and William Levy on The Nun (actually, considering the Most Popular Posts, noted on the lower right, I've answered my own question). Come to think of it, The Smoking Nun is an ideal moniker to evolve into a porn site. Sigh...
