how many episodes in advance of the scene in the show did you figure out that peggy was pregnant?
just checked jon hamm's imdb page b/c i went to high school w/ him though never knew him well. his quote about his girlfriend? NOT SEXY! ugh. i hate guys who refer to their partners as their "lady". and the rest of it is just nonsense.
Which man do I Most want to fuck me?
Ryan Reynolds!
If it's good enough for Alanis - It's good enough for me!
Fuck. My boyfriend actually hid the AARP brochure when it showed up on my 50th birthday. But you guys have no mercy. I've never even seen pictures before of half the guys on your list. And why did no one include your own Cary Tennis? Or Vincent D'Onofrio's Bobby Goren? Sexy is a guy who can listen!
For those of you who adore Alan Rickman -- as I do -- and those who have not yet discovered his charms, I dare you to watch this video and not become one of the believers... ;-)

I'll take Mr. Hamm any day of the week . . .nicely done.
Somebody needed to say it. I'm just not into adult men who still look like somebody you never noticed in junior high study hall until you saw somebody else beating them up. And of my friends who went to his Hollywood Bowl concert (you couldn't have paid me to go), half said they were disappointed that he was unable to actually sing the songs (with Wainwright even acknowleding onstage his own inablity to hit the notes or sing in key) and the other half said that he was brilliant because his not being able to sing the songs was the whole point. Huh?
And not wanting to miss a chance to turn anything political, how disappointing that you have what I believe to be the only queer male writer of this piece qualify his attraction to Will Arnett by saying that he's usually not attracted to men who are tall, have natural hairlines, deep voices and behave in a masculine manner. In other words, he's a queer man who's not attracted to men who look and act like men. I'm really not sure what the point of his being queer is, then, but there's always Rufus Wainwright for him, I guess.
On the other hand, kudos for the choice of John Amaechi. At the risk of name-dropping, I've had the pleasure of hanging with him and that, ladies and gentleman, is the real deal. His sheer size and handsomeness combined with his intellect would take your breath away except for his being so extraordinarily personable and charming, you feel like you're in the presence of an old friend. Albeit a mind-bogglingly hot old friend.
Obviously it is in error, as I am not on the list :-)
All of them would be way hotter if that show's narrator died in the first 20 seconds of a show. I'm so tired of that ingratiating self-congratulatory voiceover that I can't watch the show for any reason.
"This may prove difficult, but you know that Adam and Jamie are just the right couple of guys for the job. They don't poop, you know. They emit genius from their backsides onto easy-access DVDs for third world children. And things they touch count as blessed by vatican law. Once Adam and Jamie taught my cat to read. More after the commercial."
You wouldn't think so, judging by this list. Or does the inclusion of Tony Leung take care of those "others"? People in Japan, China, India, the Middle East, Africa and Russia would probably include a few Europeans and Americans on their lists of Sexiest/Smartest/Silliest Whatever. How sadly provincial that you lot can't manage to reciprocate.
That is all.
Those lips!
That hair!
That d**k in a box!
How can we forget cupcake lovin' Andy?
Matt Damon manages a double-sexy list coup, and he still gets saddled with perhaps appealing to men more than women? I respectfully disagree - this girl has thought he's the hottest of the Hollywood bunch since his early days, for brains and good looks. The rest of the world just needed to catch up...
This gives new meaning to vanity press. Reverse sexism. Why not just turn this into a CFNM site? Actually, you'd advertise better. Sex in the City was always too prudish, and so is the Paglia-do-me-sexist-feminist: just another mercenary, cruising for the lonely idiot male ( convicted ) to tick;e the soles of her feet ( metaphorically ) as she gazes longingly upon the useless parasitical male stripper of her desire. Keep up the good work.
I know Salon is based in the Bay Area, and Omar Vizquel is a damn good baseball player. But representing the sports world with Vizquel is criminal, considering the hotness that abounds there. In no particular order, here's just one guy from each of the major sports:
Alex Smith (49ers)
Gilbert Arenas (Washington Wizards)
Grady Sizemore (Cleveland Indians)
Mike Modano (Dallas Stars)
and of course, David Beckham
also, I agree with everyone who said leaving Clive Owen off the list is a crime.
Get on it.
As someone already mentioned, this is clearly an American list - otherwise how could you omit Roger Federer? On court and off he is the sexiest athlete practising his craft in the world today!
I don't know what "Anamika" is going on about, claiming that this should be labeled as an "American" list. From what I've quickly discerned, a number of the guys mentioned hail from Britain, France, Canada, China, Mexico, Domincan Republic, New Zealand, and Spain. Are we looking at the same list?
Can't possibly disagree about Draper/Hamm.
Beyond that, the inevitable let's-not-forgets. A half-dozen leap to mind, but at the top: Stephen Colbert. OK, so the persona is anti-sexy, but we all know it's his genius and guts that provide the electrical charge. Plus, the photo of the real, out-of-character SC in a recent NYT Magazine profile: that face, the tousled hair, the brilliance in those eyes? 10-pack not required.
