man crush.
My Lover is terribly attractive, of course, but there are many men out there that are neck & neck with my delectable husband. I feel that is very hard to come by, considering my husband literally makes me weak in the knees. When I first saw a picture of him (we met online of all places) my heart orgasmed & then my body followed. I am not making this up; just thinking about it gives me the chills all over again.
Nevertheless — & returning the topic back to something a bit more appropriate & ladylike — observe these dangerously handsome men (Lover aside) & please be still, my beating heart.
I bet that they look good on the dance floor…
^Ben Gibbard from Death Cab for Cutie, because of his beautiful poetry.
^Brandon Boyd from Incubus, because of his gorgeous voice.
^Gael GarcÃa Bernal, because… well, just look at him.
^Jim Caviezel because… he’s just dreamy.
^Gregory Peck, because he was devilishly charming back then.
^Heath Legder, because he was amazing in life & was far too young to leave it.
^Benicio Del Toro, for no other reason than him being the ultimate, rugged badass.
^Jake Gyllenhaal, because again… just look at him.
^Johnny Depp, because… he is Johnny Depp.
^Jonathan Rhys Meyers, because he reminds me of Lover, completely. I can’t look at this man without being turned on, & it’s simply because he & Jonathan (my husband) look so much alike. He is my most favorite.
^Jude Law, because he is a sleaze & I can’t help but adore him.
^Melvil Poupaud, because he is enticingly French.
Honorable mentions:
– Wentworth Miller
– Josh Hartnett
– Christian Bale
– Ryan Gosling
– Carey Grant
– Clive Owen
– Shia LaBeouf
I’d better stop before I get myself into a situation that I cannot get out of…

oh yummy. Johnny Depp has been a long time favorite of mine. Hmmm hmmmm good. I also have recently noticed McSteamy growing on me as well. :-)

Jude Law is a little man slut. But his eyes are gorgeous!
Ryan Gosling<333

Um, so that picture of Jonathan Rhys Meyers? Is one of the best I’ve ever seen. Swoon!
The rest of your list is spot-on as well. Except I’d take Carey over Gregory, but really I’d just like them both.

oh man every one of those pictures made me swoon. yummmm. :)

Fantastic list! They’re all delicious in their own way. :D
on Thursday, May 15th, 2008 at 3:49 pm:
@ Amanda: Oh yes, Johnny Depp. [swoon]
@ Samantha: Yes, he is a little man whore, but God, I love his swagger.
@ Gretch-a-Sketch: Don’t even get me started on JRM. Wooo. Carey Grant is intoxicating, but a bit overrated for me. Gregory Peck is more of a manly-man to me. :]
@ katelin: I’m so glad I could offer some swoonage here. ;]
@ moscoto: thank you. Delicious, indeed.

LOL YESSS. Thank you for this post.
“Enticingly French” ah hahahaha. And I quite liked your unladylike descriptions!
on Thursday, May 15th, 2008 at 5:14 pm:
I met my Lover online as well :)
You would have to fight me for Brandon Boyd though…
(and thanks for the eye candy)

When I first saw a picture of your husband I thought he looked A LOT like JRM. =D

@ Natalie: I know, I know. I’m still swooning over this post myself. I just might keep referring back to it on those lonely nights…
@ abby: Aww, did you? That is so awesome. I was always sort of embarrassed to have met my husband online, because as soon as people hear that there’s this misconception that the relationship is dysfunctional somehow. I’ve learned to embrace it; especially since we’re married now. :]
@ Sara: Really? Lover saw this post & said, “Babe, I do NOT think I look like him. Not at all. I look more like Jude Law than Jonathan Rhys Meyers.” He said it like it was a BAD thing. ;/ Sigh, men.

I did this a while back. I love this post. It’s so much fun. I’ll have to agree with you on a few of those. It’s okay to still look. We’re human and they’re oh so pretty. :)
on Friday, May 16th, 2008 at 6:10 am:
I love Johnny Depp, too. He is soooooo yummmy.
on Friday, May 16th, 2008 at 8:30 am:
since i’m probably going to be the only guy to comment here, i’ll go ahead and admit that Jude Law is pretty sexy. No, I’m not gay (not that there’s anything wrong with that), but dude is a sexy, sleezy beast… just keeping it real!
on Friday, May 16th, 2008 at 8:34 am:
@ ashley: It was a lot of fun for me to do this. :] My husband saw it & had to disagree with a few of them that I picked, but oh well. ;]
@ Tashya: I concur! Most definitely, I do.
@ Aaron: thank you, sir, for your honesty. This proves that you are most certainly comfortable enough in your sexuality to rate other men. Bravo. Oh & just so you know, you inspired me with that one post you did… about wanting to impregnate hot celebrities… ;]
on Friday, May 16th, 2008 at 2:30 pm:
Okay, so I’m having a terrible day. But those pictures? Helped a little bit. I can’t even say which is best, because, umm. I think you know.
Also, yay for the Arctic Monkeys reference. Have I mentioned how much I LOVE them? Very much.
on Friday, May 16th, 2008 at 2:33 pm:
@ sandy: That was the main reason I did this little ditty; to cheer myself up with the beauty & sexiness of these scrumptious men, while simultaneously cheering up others, too, maybe. :] Lover didn’t like this post. I’m pretty sure you can see why.
& oh yes, the Arctic Monkeys make me shake it. =]
on Friday, May 16th, 2008 at 10:12 pm:
see, clive owen is my number one, all time, leave my boyfriend for him in a second, crush. did you see that gq cover of him last year? oh, god!
on Saturday, May 17th, 2008 at 10:24 pm:
You had me at Ben Gibbard.
I. Love. You.
on Sunday, May 18th, 2008 at 3:14 pm:
@ juliAM: Oh yes, he is a hot one. :] I buy GQ for my husband, hinting that the articles will provide him some useful information. But I really get it so I can gush over the handsome men.
@ Traci: I love you too, for appreciating the beauty that is Benjamin Gibbard. [swoon]

Agreed with every name on that list. Amazing taste..Though Wentworth Miller on the honorable mention list, which is a tad disappointing. Gael is up there though, so things even out.
on Sunday, June 8th, 2008 at 9:34 pm:
And they were created when God was very happy. So Christian Bale is top of my hot-o-meter, seconded by Jonathan Meyers. So if your husband looks like him, you have every reason to be weak in the knees, no queries.
