Fandom on the Hot List.
How hot do you have to be to make sexy Ryan Reynolds insecure about his body? Why, just as hot as our #8 stud, Hugh Jackman, whom Ryan recently described as being in “terrifying shape.”
There’s something about Jackman that screams manly no matter what he does. He doesn’t have to be snarling as Wolverine to convey it; it can just as easily be when he’s singing on the Oscars with Beyoncé and doing jazz hands. And he doesn’t take himself too seriously, as evidenced by his budget-conscious opening number.
Being the star of stage and screen, being named People Magazine’s Sexiest Man alive, it’s no wonder that gay men would love to claim Hugh as one of our own. Hugh (and his wife) continues to laugh off the gay rumors, but in a very non-reactionary way. When Parade Magazine recently asked him for the umpteenth time about the rumors, he smiled, and in that oh-so-charming accent, said, “I’d be happy to go and deny, because I’m not. But by denying it, I’m saying that there’s something shameful about it, and there isn’t anything shameful.”
This class act can claw his way into our hearts any time he wants.
5. Jensen Ackles
Thinking about Jensen Ackles, of course, led us to think about his character, Dean Winchester on Supernatural. That led us to thinking about the relationship between Jensen and his onscreen brother, and why some of us prefer one or the other. Then we realized choosing between them is an age-old television dilemma: Mary Ann or Ginger from Gilligan’s Island?
While thoughtful egghead Sam is certainly (demon blood aside) sweet and goodhearted, like Mary Ann, Jensen gives his Dean a definite Ginger vibe. Dean is all about the good time - chasing women, drinking whiskey, and eating cheeseburgers. It’s all instant gratification with him.
And we do find him gratifying - chiseled face, great body, and thanks to a recent episode that had him impersonating a high school gym teacher, we know he’s got thighs he could crack walnuts with.
If we go out on a three-hour tour, and get shipwrecked on a tropical island, we can’t help but think we’d enjoy exile a little more with Ginger. We mean Jensen.
