Do you know someone “sexy”? (We bet you do!) Then nominate them for the Mercury‘s “Sexiest People in Portland” contest! The sexiest guy and girl will win $200 each, AND get a tastefully sexy photo spread in the upcoming and always wildly popular Mercury Sex Issue!
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:
• Take or procure a picture of the sexiest Portlander you know—could be your girlfriend or boyfriend, a mechanic, librarian, barista, teacher, bike messenger, city worker… we don’t care! If they’re “HOT” we want them!
• Go to flickr.com/groups/portlandmercury and submit your photo. IMPORTANT: Be sure to tag it “sexy portland 2010” (include the quotes!) and make sure you know how to get in quick contact with your model (who must be over 18 years old).
• Too old-timey for Flickr? NO PROBLEM! Simply submit your photo via old-timey email to sexyportland@portlandmercury.com, and be sure to include model info and your daytime phone number.
IT’S THAT SIMPLE! Deadline for entries is Monday, March 1st, so don’t delay! Make sure the sexy people in your life get the money and notoriety sexy people deserve with the…
MERCURY‘S SEXIEST PEOPLE IN PORTLAND CONTEST!

I nominated my hot girlfriend and emailed you the pictures. Why do I not see them on this flickr site?
Why do ‘sexy people’ have to be 20-something tools with requisite hair dye and tattoos?
Oh, that’s right…sorry. That dog -is- sexy though…thanks for throwing in that little bestiality reference for all us ‘furry’ lovers out here. Yetch!
This is Reymont, from the future! Don’t bother nominating anyone, because it turns out they aren’t looking for the sexiest ANYTHING! Instead, they just pick a couple of random hipsters from the nearest coffee shop and pretend they are somehow “representative” of Portland. BS! You have been warned!
