McAdams Swoons Over Antonio Sabato Jr.

rachel-mcadams-antonio-sabato-jr

Proving yet again that she is anything but a mean girl in real life, Rachel McAdams had a total moment of fluster last week on the set of the Today Show. McAdams, who was on the show to promote The Time Traveler’s Wife, had a teenage crush on fellow guest Antonio Sabato Jr. Sabato was there to talk up his latest project, the VH1 reality show “My Antonio.” A flustered Rachel apparently got swoon-y over the “General Hospital” star. A source said, “Rachel was blushing and told Antonio she had the biggest crush on him in high school.” Sabato, Jr. reportedly was so flattered that he later sent McAdams flowers.

We’re sure a real love connection would be unlikely, but this would be a great beginning to a romantic comedy, a really meta one where they star as themselves and Al Roker plays matchmaker.

    She might as well swoon over a piece of toasted raisin bread and have a nice treat to talk about. This narcissic goon,.. expects women to have crushes over him.. tho I don’t know why., when he’s dumping women left and right, some with his kids after a brief romance. Blah He’s not that special.

  • Katie says:

    I LOVE RACHEL MCA. She is so sweet and beautiful. Personally she is way too good for Antonio. Just my opinion.

  • Feliz says:

    My name is Feliz 18, from Ohio and for the first time i saw Antonio i fell in love with him. i was watching the show last night and i find him very attractive and an honest shy guy. All those women are not right for him i think because they only want $ not Love. so i wish i could meet Antonio in my life because him and i are both very honest and shy people. He is an amazing guy!Hope he reads my commet and sees Lolzz!

    Aw, come on, it’s cute. Celebs are allowed to have high school crushes too, it doesn’t necessarily mean a hook up.

  • holista says:

    rachel….you may have loved him in high school….but leave that puppy love crush behind…cuz that is what he is ….A BIG BEHIND…in every sense of the word…IF he were such a GREAT CATCH…wellllll he would not need this show to show he is the big kahona…i hope all those ladies on the island wake up quick and make a swim for the main land before the are smashed under his big wave of narcisism while his mama hangs 10 and so holier than thou…hell…she probabably still bathes him @ night anyway so none of those ladies even have a chance!

  • Andi says:

    DeeCee & Holista! I, really, have to agree with you. Give me a break! This man/boy is not shy…..far from it! He most certainly is full of himself. Lots of celebrities do NOT like him…..awful personality, they say!! NO, Feliz….he is NOT honest. When you get enough experience in life, you will understand. You have a long ways to grow & lessons to learn!

  • Felicia says:

    This, by far, has to be the stupidest show ever. If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck.. C’mon! Antonio Sabato is a narcissistic JERK. Watching this show hit it home for me. He is also quite shallow. He, much like other celebrities that have taken to this genre of television, are on TV for one thing..career boosts. If you enjoy shows of this caliber, by all means watch them. I won’t allow my roommate to con me into watching this show again. He may be in good shape, attractive..but that does not make up for his lack of integrity in other areas.

  • elena says:

    Antonio who? thats right the only reason he is making this show is cuz other than eye candy he has no talent. Look at me! look at me! im good locking blah blah! Antonio is like that lolipop with a worm in it, tasty in the outside but still a worm in the inside. I didn’t think much of him before but when I saw what he did to that girl because of her feet what an a** just remember antonio you will get old and chrivled up one day and you probably have a little inywinnie anywayz!

  • tammy says:

    Is he competing for them or are they competing for him? I’m confused. It is his kingdom and yet he is sooooo sweet, he has these little hoochies making him chase after them and that is the point that really gets to me. He is too sweet!!!!

    First of all I Love his Mother Yvonne. How can you not respect this woman who has raised this talented man who loves his family & trust his mom with these women, who are trying to win his heart & soul. I’m sorry I admire Yvonne. The only problem I have with each woman is not one has shown Yvonne any respect, how can Antonio fall in love with a woman who can’t show one ounce of affection for his family & mom. Almost each woman has made a comment behind her back and his in how she controls her sons life or her judging them before getting to know them. Trust me a woman can look at another woman and know what her intentions are immediately. If I was not a 60 yr old woman I would go after him. I like reality shows as much as he does, he likes Cops, I do too, however, I like most daring, truckers on ice, & highway patrol, of course, I like adventure, having climb a mountain, I think it would be fun even though I’m frightened of heights, Love to fly,snow mobiling,learning, going places, having an adventure with Yvonne, I think that would be Awesome, an Adventure with his mom, WOW… being part of a family that whole since of belonging to a family, loving, sharing, being able to talk with someone.. The most part of a relationship in commucation & trust, I see when Antonio ask a question to these women they are not being up front with him. He has asked if a woman as fought for a man, Oh my yes I would had in a heart beat. fight for my man knowing he loves me. I don’t understand why the women need to use profanity, its not becoming, do they not know he will see the video. I haven’t seen one woman go after him when there has been a conflict with another woman why aren’t these women cosoling him? Not one woman has got out of her sit and for him and talk. I do have to say I wished Sarah would had stayed, the girl does have problems and I believe she felt as though she did not belong. I think if Antonio would had set with her away from everyone she would have opened up to him. she felt she was not as beautiful as all the others, and she was the most beautiful, she was lost in women who were confident in themselves and everyone made her feel degrading, not worthy or have any worth. Noone knew her life and background. any way, I pray that Antonio will find his love, his “Soul Mate” in life with all the adventures they can share and with the families…..
    Can you imagine what you could do with Antonio, the love making, the love, just be able to hold his hand in public, even a kiss in public, I mean Just LOVE Him. How can you not want to hug him, can you imagine lying with him at night going to sleep next to him wrapped in his arms and feeling the warmth of his body next to yours, it would be breath taking, it would be both your heart are beating as one and your soul interact as one and as one with God, No, I would not want to share him with any woman, except one, His Mom… If You are going to marry this man you need to show his mom the same courtesy & respect and the love he has for his mother and his family.. end of my comment,

    He is full of himself

  • krystal wingate says:

    I think he is beautiful but i am sad in some ways to see him do this show. On the otherhand i am happy to be able to see him at all. You actually get a taste of what he is like. I have watched him over the years. Absolutely a sweet guy. Glad to see him land a job on the Bold and Beautiful. They should keep him because he is beautiful. And the only reason why he hasn’t gotten any bigger is because of his looks. He is just tooo goodlooking,sometimes it can hurt actors. But to “My Antonio”, you won’t find the real thing on this show. And Rachel Adams is much more your caliber. And yes, i like Antonio’s mom, they really needed her on the show. Antonio is her angel and she will protect him. And i don’t care for this playmate. LOL, please don’t pick Miss Nip Tuck. Thank god the frizzy headed realestate agent is gone. And the ex wife cries way too much. Good luck Antonio!

  • andi says:

    Krystal, You have watched him! Have you researched him? Have you seen all his interviews, all his _%)($%_%!%()$^(_ y videos? Do you know all the women he has been with who are, even, worse then the “Playmate”? You & Scarlet don’t know Antonio Sabato Jr, at all! I, too, thought he was the greatest man alive! He is NOT! He is very _%)($%_%!%()$^(_ y, full of himself, not one bit shy….no he is NOT, he does what works for him….he’s an actor….not very good, but he knows how to get what he wants, even if it’s stepping on your toes. Yes, he belongs on the Bold & Beautiful with the rest of the skanks & Hollywood trash! He’s got you two, buffaloed, BIG TIME!!! Do the research. Go back over time……dig deep, you’ll see!!!! If you think he is not a user & abuser….think again! As for poor little Sarah……she does need LOTS of help. She’s a stripper of the lowest form. She was banned from strip clubs in her home state. Do the research on her, too! You will, really, be surprised!

    why on your show and all the date shows that the black girl isn’t picked or even asked on a date except maybe once. The bachelor show same thing or any kind of dating or marriage type of show. Why haven’t you antonio aske the black girl out (race problem i think you don’t have one). Your feelings have been hurt by tully allow the girls to have fair dates and talk to her off the air 17 yrs is to long to do on a dating show. not fair, a fan goodbye.

  • pumpkin says:

    I watch My Antonio quite faithfully. Very entertaining. I was sorry to see how he dissed the girl because of her hands and feet. Pretty cold. And the playmate with her nose in the air head tossing is someone you just love to hate. She acts like the world owes her just because she managed the nip-tuck, boob blow up, nose job, hair extension, botox ,etc.
    I was glad to see Autumn go. She didn’t seem to have any type of romantic connection, She seemed turned off by the “kissing thing” and even if she is educated she seemed kiind of spacy.I got a kick out of the brunette’s diabolical laugh during the movie skits, but she flubbed the date with her annoying aggressiveness. I was so glad to see Ms. Testosterone go. Tully does cry a lot. Maybe it’s menopause. I know Yvonne hates her, but she seems to be the only one who fits him.As for Antonio, I don’t think he’s a goon, but he’s just so emotionless. Even when he’s acting upset he seems to be reciting his lines. And I’ve never seen him act like he loved anyone, except maybe mom.Oh yes, I was so glad to see the skiunny blonde leave, thew one who kept saying he should care for the healthy ones. I think she acted like a neurotic diva. Thanks for the show. I autotune it.
