Ballots for the Emmy nominations are due tomorrow. If you've been paying attention at all to the Emmy contest this year, you may have noticed how shameless the contenders have become. A few For Your Consideration Ads -- like Conan O'Brien's -- are using humor to convince the Emmy voters to nominate them. A few others, like Naya Rivera in "Glee," are really reaching. I mean, come on?
What's really surprising, however, is how hard some contenders are selling sex to procure a nomination. Last week, we featured Padma Lakshmi's For Your Consideration Ad, and the messsage was basically, "I WILL LET YOU LICK CHOCOLATE OFF MY BODY IF YOU NOMINATE ME."
It was not subtle. So in the spirit of that For Your Consideration Ad, I mocked up 10 others (including Allison Williams, above), which aren't that much more shameless than Padma Lakshmi's "Lick Me" campaign. Enjoy.

hilarious! a picture of a hot actress and a line asking “how would you like to have sex with me?” it gets funnier the more times i see it! congrats on a great slide show!
I thought it was pretty damn funny. Then again, look at my username.
A hot picture of Natalie Zea with a “who wants me to shut me the fuck up?” would have locked up her Justified nomination.
Hilarious! A person who logs into a website to talk shit! It gets funnier the more times I see it!
Jaroslav take a hike or we’ll bomb your morality with napalm
Agree with jaroslav that most are the similar meh-ish critiques of the Padma ad, but I thought the Hendricks and Bourdain ones were funny
If there was an extreme one with a hot actress saying, “who wants to stick their 85-year-old white boner into my wet… ” i would’ve applauded the spot-on-ness (not a real word? YOU’RE not a real word!!)
I’m not talking shit, i loved this post! hey, what if 2 Broke Girls did one. they could have the brunette with the big tits show cleavage and it could say “Hey Emmy voters, check out these fun bags!” Haha, yeah, sexy and funny!
but i would never make fun of a website spends half the time making fun of tv shows. that would mean and lame and perhaps even ironic. i only log on to website to praise them! way to go Dustin on another winner!
Listen, if anyone knows what’s not funny, it’s jaroslav here. Just read any of his comments. They’re like black holes where humor is crushed and a vacuum of self-loathing is left behind.
Settle down people! None of this would have happened if jaroslav hasek’s dick was long enough to stick in his own ass.
Dustin! Making fun of Emmy pandering is SOOOO 2010!!
astounding! an internet commenter who has completely missed the point of the article and who feels compelled to display his ignorance (and lack of shift key) to the world! congrats on being “that guy”, mr. hasek.
GOD ANTHONY BOURDAIN IS SO EDGY
He has an attitude like who cares? It’s only reality tv.
And he loves the Ramones! So punk rock
smithers have the Rolling Stones killed
If only American Horror Story were as interesting as that screen cap.
you mean the best new show on TV in 2011. Yeah, Im looking at you Game of Thrones
Who wants to sex Mutombo?
Ha!
hilarious
Padma brings all the excitement normally associated with paying a phone bill, cleaning your bathroom or wiping doghsit off your shoes. She’s perfect for the Emmys.
So much hate in here. I’ve got nothing but love.
Hold me!
(Especially Padma)
How come JLoHew isn’t showing off her vajazzles? She is missing a huge opportunity here.
Here’s someone else who deserves some Emmy consideration:

I always wondered about that map in the opening credits.
Do they have a “Best fat cow packed into a girdle” category for Christina Hendricks? Google “Christina Hendricks candid” before you make some stupid reply about how you love her curves, fat women and chubby chasers.
People who like ample women WILL RUIN AMERICA!
man you suck donkey ass
