Tom Daley & His Bulge, Hugging It Out

Here we find Tom Daley and his Speedo hugging Matthew Mitcham in his Speedo, which can only result in a very happy photographic moment. Enjoy.

Blast from the Shirtless 90210 Past

Bet you thought this was going to be Dylan or Brandon, right? Or maybe even Steve, lately of ‘Dancing with the Stars’ fame? No such luck – this is the unlikeliest heart-throb of the bunch – Brian Austin Green (well, aside from the nerdy character who accidentally gunned himself off in one of their “very special episodes”. See, once upon a time I did watch television, and quite closely.) Yes, folks, this is the man who deflowered Donna. Though I don’t think he had as many tattoos then. Ahh, memories…

A Shirtless Andy Samberg

Continuing with our brief quirky-yet-sexy thread started by Paul Rudd, this is Andy Samberg, whose movies hold absolutely no allure for me whatsoever, but who has a certain sexiness that far surpasses the hit-or-miss essence of Mr. Rudd. He’s just dorky enough for me to adore.

Jesse Metcalfe in His Underwear

This is Jesse Metcalfe, newly of ‘Dallas’ fame, formerly of ‘Desperate Housewives’ fame, neither of which I ever watched. Well, the original ‘Dallas’, yes. But that was then and this is now and my tastes have evolved from the fake dramatic to the real dramatic (hello ‘Real Housewives’).

There has been much criticism of Mr. Metcalfe’s “man-boobs”, which I find rather distasteful. The criticism that is. I haven’t tasted the other.

Who Has the Better Butt: Channing Tatum or Joe Manganiello?

Based on the following two photos alone, I’ve got to give the slight edge (one might even say ‘rim’) to Channing Tatum – though in real life Mr. Manganiello is probably slightly more fit/built. Truth be told, neither of these guys is my type, or what I usually find attractive in a guy, but they each have their fervent admirers, so this double-billing goes out to them.

Above, Mr. Tatum; below, Mr. Manganiello. Who brings up the back best?

Anderson Cooper: Shirtless

Fresh off from my serious moment with Anderson Cooper, I thought it would be a good time to get a little silly with the Silver Fox, and bring back these photos of a shirtless Mr. Cooper getting a (badly-needed) spray tan. It’s always good to see that those tight t-shirts he sometimes favors for location shots aren’t lying about what’s beneath them. Dude is built.

Ben Cohen: Unabashedly Hairy

While I’m away in Boston, here are a couple of Ben Cohen photos for your enjoyment – some of which are from the shoot for his 2013 Calendar. In an age of ubiquitous manscaping and razor massacres, it’s good to have someone like Ben representing the natural state.

Previous Ben Cohen posts can be found throughout the site, so do check out our Archives.

Zac Efron, Caught with his Hand Down His Pants

Remember when Zac Efron stuck his hand down his pants and the invasive paparazzi were there to catch it all on digital? That’s the beauty, and the supreme danger, of the Internet – if you ever forget, it’s out there somewhere… forever. I’m not proud of absolutely everything I’ve put up here, but I can stand behind it, even if I’ve come to change my mind about some things. You have to own up to your past before you can sail into your future. Sorry Zac, but with that body you have nothing to be ashamed about. (And if there are any gay rumors still floating around regarding Mr. Efron, that pose should put an end to them.)

Madonna’s Hottest Dancer?

This is Adrien Galo, a back-up dancer on Madonna’s current MDNA Tour. While I’ve always found Madonna’s taste in men – including back-up dancers and video love-interests – somewhat questionable (about one in five is what I’d consider hot), there’s usually one or two per tour that merit special mention, and a shirtless post like this. Mr. Galo is certainly one of them. (And don’t let it sway your opinion that he was once a back-up dancer for Britney Spears. We all had to start somewhere.)

There was a time when I could tell you the names and stats of every back-up dancer on a Madonna tour, but while I still love her, I have other things to do. (Much to the current chagrin of Suzie, who needs confirmation that her daughter’s teacher played a part in Madonna’s MDNA Tour… does anyone know?) However, I do remember the ones who have meant the most to me over the years – see if you remember these guys.

On the left is ‘Slam’ from the epic Blonde Ambition tour in 1990. I liked him so much I grew my hair out (and it looked nothing like that.) To the right is the Girlie Show’s Luca Tommassini from 1993 – he’s the one she shouts ‘Luca!’ at in the ‘Everybody’ finale – something I only just put together last week.

It wasn’t until 2001 that I actually got to attend one of her tours myself, and that amazing christening came in the form of the Drowned World Tour. One of the bright spots of that gorgeously dark show was Jull Weber, seen below, who managed to make even a mohawk look hot. He also featured in her ‘Don’t Tell Me’ video as a sexy cowboy. Yee-haw indeed.

The first, and thus far only, dancer I’ve had the pleasure of meeting in person (on Boylston Street in the summer of the Confessions Tour) was Daniel ‘Cloud’ Campos. He was gracious and kind, offering to pose for a photo (which I’ll dig up another day) – as I imagine, and have heard, most are. It’s always nice to be noticed for the work you’re doing.

Cloud is on the left, and he was in her ‘Hung Up’ and ‘Sorry’ videos, as well as her Reinvention Tour in 2004. On the right is Paul Kirkland, who was also part of the Reinvention Tour, coming back a few years later for her 2008/2009 Sticky & Sweet Tour. I think all the dancers on the MDNA Tour are new – befitting a new Madonna era. I’ve always admired her self-proclaimed determination to hire the most spirited and charismatic characters for her show, even if they’re not the most technically proficient. These guys are proof of that.

Who’s Hotter: Mark Sanchez or Tim Tebow?

Both of these guys is playing football today, though I couldn’t tell you where or when or what team they might be on. I don’t even know if it’s the National or American League. The point of this post is to make a determination as to which player is hotter. (This is where important decisions get decided.) Personally, it’s a tough call – they’re equally unremarkable – but I’d have to give the slight edge to Mark Sanchez. Especially when he gets the GQ treatment. He just cleans up better.

I’m not saying my decision is final – and we all know I’m someone who changes his tastes as time goes on. To be honest, a year or two ago my position would have been the opposite. It took a while for Mr. Sanchez to grow on me, and a little Tebow-overexposure-exhaustion to set in. Then there’s the hair – soft curls trump gel spikes any day.

Jason Statham, Shirtless by Request

It’s a Saturday of requests, and up next (and probably last, as I’m beat) is Jason Statham. My friend JoAnn will be glad to see Mr. Statham has returned to this blog in all his shirtless glory. For some reason, she wants to have all his love children, minus the children part. I don’t quite see the appeal here, but there are many who do, so this is for you.

Why is it that those who take up boxing are in the best shape? How does punching things work such wonders on the body? I wish I could get excited about it, but I just don’t think my knuckles can do that, and the idea of punching an inanimate object like a punching bag has always seemed the height of foolish pointlessness.

A Shirtless Ryan Gosling Post

Never let it be said that I don’t pander to those fine folks who takes the time to visit this site – and this post goes out to Sara, who requested a little Ryan Gosling today. While he’s never been a favorite of mine, there’s no denying that he has a certain appeal, starting with those pecs. If ever there was a walking advertisement for working out and tanning, this is it. I can do the tanning part in the summer – it’s the work-out portion that always gives me pause.

And for those who’d like to look closer into his eyes…

Ben Cohen: Beefcake Calendar

This is purportedly the cover for the new Ben Cohen calendar for 2013. That is all.

Ben Cohen’s Underwear Video

Because he’s even better in motion. One day soon I’ll do a serious Ben Cohen write-up, on all the amazing work he and his StandUp Foundation do to combat bullying. Today, however, I’m too tired to do anything but watch him get dirty, work up a sweat, and take off his clothes for a calendar shoot.
