This week’s Hot Guy Friday is a salute to my favorite of all of the accented and delicious men in the world: The British. Maybe you want me to call them “The English” but I am including some Welsh in the mix, and British people seem to care about the difference, so whatever. Our Hot Guy Leader this week is the lovely and talented Idris Elba. I’ve been thinking about him all week, ever since I read this piece at Bossip. Bossip claims that Idris has a stripper baby mama that he lived with for a short time, and then he made her leave (while she was still pregnant), and that the girl is back to stripping. Now, I don’t approve of this kind of thing, but knowing that ‘Dris is a player who randomly impregnates American girls has definitely raised my ho-dar. I’m now on the hunt for the beauty of ‘Dris in my bed. Let’s do some more research, ladies!
I didn’t know if I should begin or end with my Clive. But for some reason, Clive feels very natural right after Idris, right? Like you’re in a threesome with both of them and you go with Idris first because, f-ck, it’s IDRIS and you need him NOW and then it’s over and you can spend an hour with Clive. And then you go back to Idris. And then Clive…
And after we get through with Clive and Idris, what about some Daniel Craig? Sure, he’s a grumpy bugger, but it’s worth it. Totally. (There’s a little Jamie Bell in the mix too):
Speaking of Jamie Bell…
And of course, Jude Law. Funny story: I completely forgot about him when I was making my Hot British Guy Master List. Why can’t I let Jude be great? Why don’t I want to get pregnant by The Law?
Some Naveen Andrews… yes, he’s kind of a skeeze. Of course. But he’s also dangerous and sexy and lovely. Sigh… Naveen!
Colin Firth will likely win the Best Actor Oscar this year. Well-deserved after two decades of stellar work hotness. Is it just me, or does Firth improve with age? Sure, his turn as Mr. Darcy set the tone for his hotness, but I like the middle-aged Firth so much. He’s grown into one of the best English actors working today. And by “best” I mean “dongtastic”.
Tom Hardy… there are no words for this man’s sexiness.
Little Nicolas Hoult is all grown up and fine as hell.
Jonny Lee Miller isn’t the most popular of all of the Englishmen, but I adore him, and I find him sexy as hell. His voice is gorgeous, and his manor is very unassuming and sweet. Does he sometimes photograph sort of “Frankenstein”? Sure. But I want to wrap my legs around him.
Damien Lewis, one of my favorite gingers EVER. Great actor. Love Band of Brothers. Still missing Life. Sigh… I wish he would make some movies.
Richard Armitage, by request. He’s very cute… but he reminds me of someone, and I can’t put my finger on it. And by “it” I mean his dong.
Andrew Lincoln is English and he’s playing American in that new AMC zombie show (that I haven’t seen). He’s also that really sweet guy from Love, Actually. The one who was in love with Keira, remember? And he made the tape of her on her wedding day and… oh God.
James Purefoy, anyone? He’s got that smug, smarmy look that I always go for. He also looks like the love child of Thomas Jane and Gerard Butler. Be still my drawers.
SPARKLES! I would really like to know what his sparkledong looked like. I bet it’s really, really pretty. How could it not be?
Since we’re onto pretty boys and their sparkledongs, how about Orly Bloom? You know the Orlyloonies can’t get enough.
I know Daniel Radcliffe is not a popular entry on HGF (because I’ve included him before), but I love this kid, and his intelligence, wit and sweetness make him even hotter. Wouldn’t he be a fun boyfriend? I think he would be. I love him. So just imagine how much you’ll laugh when he shows up to your first date like this:
Does anyone else miss Jeremy Northam? Remember when he was supposed to be the next big thing? Remember what an absolutely lovely Mr. Knightley he was in the Goopy Emma? He’s brooding, yet kind of silly and funny too. I miss him. Come back to us, Jeremy!
Next, a little Hugh Dancy. He’s married to Claire Danes, and in my opinion, he already looks like he’s over it. So chances are that he could be single again very soon. Now… is he sexy? Eh. He’s very, very pretty, and he’s one of those guys that’s much better in motion. In still photos, he just seems uptight and fancy. Fancy Dancy, which is entirely unoriginal, I know, but it fits.
Sean Bean… another one of those Englishmen who looks like he’s either about to tell you off or f-ck the hell out of you. Or both. I’m putting in some costume porn, for the ladies who get off on old-timey military costumes (insert side-eye here).
I know you hate Ed Westwick. He’s hairy and smarmy and greasy and posh and somewhat nasty. But, as many of you know, that’s my type. I honestly got so hot just typing all of that nastiness. God, I LOVE Ed Westwick. He’s so GROSS.
Stephen Moyer – I love him. Talk about smart and funny. And he has great cheekbones and he’s saucy. AND he’s conventionally handsome, although a bit short.
Another one of my favorites, Andrew Garfield from The Social Network and Never Let Me Go. As I’ve said before, in still photos, he looks like an awkward baby bird, but in motion, he’s really hot. He’s also got one of those tall, skinny, bony bodies that I always end up attracted to. F-ck!
Rufus Sewell… another smarmy, dirty bastard. Just the way we like.
David Beckham: ignore the voice, concentrate on the package. Because the package is amazing. And if you’re a hooker, there’s a good chance you’ll get to experience some Becksdong.
Much like The Sparkler, Tom Sturridge is much too pretty for his own good. But he’s still British, so he’s got something going for him.
Chiwetel Ejiofor is criminally underlooked as an actor. And as a hot guy. He’s incredible!
Michael Sheen, because we love a good nerd-crush.
A little Alan Rickman. Because he’s awesome!
Gary Oldman… because you bitches are freaks.
Another Ginger Hotness Break, this time for Prince Harry. I know he’s dumb as a rock, y’all. I know it in my heart. But I’m just saying… brains aren’t everything. He seems like a sweet kid. A sweet kid that would rock your world. Why can’t Harry be the King (of your burning loins)?
Timothy Dalton, by request:
A little Hugh Grant, because I do find him cute:
Bill Nighy is the BEST. And yes, bitches, he’s HOT.
Aaron Johnson is barely in his 20s, and he has a 40-something lover, a new baby and three potential step-kids, one of whom is only a few years younger than him. And he’s hot. Like, really hot.
Ioan Gruffudd isn’t my cup ‘a tea, mainly because it takes me three full minutes of Google hit-or-miss to remember how to spell his name. Beyond that, he’s pretty nice-looking, though.
Rupert Penry-Jones, by request:
Rhys Ifans has grown on me significantly over the past few years. I now think he’s a really solid actor, and rather sexy, in an unconventional way.
Jim Sturgess… I swear to God, this boy will begin weeping two seconds after orgasm. His, not yours. You will have to get your rocks off yourself through the muffled sounds of English pillow weeping.
I don’t even care if you get for Hugh Laurie. He’s the bomb. On House, when he wears his little wire-frame glasses, I swoon.
And a little Ralph Fiennes:
Paul Bettany, by request! I can’t believe I forgot him!
And last but not least, the most epic of all the Hot British Men (sort of), the Prettiest-Yet-Masculine Forever Dong…. ladies and gentlemen, David Gandy.

Oohhh…James Purefoy. Don’t like still photos of him, but on film, he’s totally “man in charge” hotness, no matter what he’s doing.
I swear, David Gandy is the reincarnation of Clark Gable (minus the ears). He’s got that sublimely wicked, piercing stare that Gable had that could knock a woman to her knees. Damn-O.

JLM is freaking hawt and not just beause he dated Angie. I loved him in Mansfield Park excellent movie. He was also really good in Hackers and yea Angie is in that movie. Mindhunters is an underrated movie but it was really good and if you haven’t seen that you should because it was really good.
Alan Rickman is sooo hawt as Professor Snape. I don’t know what my problem is but I adore him as Snape. Love his accent.
Love Rhys Ifran, amazing amazing talent. See Human Nature excellent movie, stars Patricia Arquette, Tim Robbins, the guy from the Station Agent his name escapes me, and Rosie Perez.
Love my Dan Radcliff.
Not in a sexual way though.
David Beckham who I do love in sexual is oh sooo sexy and I love the fact that is not a cup in his drawers.
Jeremy Northham was only really attractive to me in The Net, I did like him in Emma but he hasn’t been attractive in anything else.
Rufus Sewell is extremely hawt. Love him in that movie with Heath Ledger A Knight’s Tale. He is oh sooo sexy. OMG.
Huge Dancy is sooo cute. Loved him Confessions of a Shopolic and in Adam.
Love Rob Pattison as well. Adorable. He only got hawter to me in watching how much he struggles with his love for Bella in Twilight and how much of a gentleman in that movie he is. Makes me hawt. He also seems to be a good egg in real life.

Jude Law is too nasty to be hot. Deadbeat dads or NOT sexy. Cheaters and liars are NOT sexy. I would totally throw him to the curb.

I have a true story to tell about Hugh Grant– when I was living in London, he stole my friend’s girlfriend! He just wined her, dined her, and bedded her. Ooooh, my friend was so mad when all the movie posters with Hugh’s giant head were all over the bus stops.
He never got over the girl, and he still hates Hugh.

Mr. Darcy will always be my…what did you call it? Foreverdong?…in a wet white shirt. Lordy. Colin Firth just gets cuter every year.
I’d have to cheat on Darcy with Rufus Sewell though. Did he get his eyes done? I seem to remember him having one droopish lid, which just made him more charming in my book but whatevs – as long as he’s happy.

Holy hotness- Tom Hardy!!!! He has the Jonathon Rhys Meyer upper lip that I cannot look away from. It sits there and makes me want to bite it or lick it! Gah! Really, a movie with both of them in it would be my fave. I don’t care if they were just sitting there picking their noses.
Prince Harry is such his mom’s kid. I love him. His smile always reaches his eyes and he has that glint of mischief there.
Nicolas Hoult- dude, that kid is freaky!
I like to scroll slowly thru HGF to fully appreciate all of the wonderfullness you give us Kaiser and I have never been happier that I do so as I was today when I read your bit about DanRad and then scrolled down to find him in his S&M gear! I laughed so hard my boss called me to find out what was so funny. Thanks for a great HGF!

well, i guess it’s easy as the same thing happened when the Scots spread came out the other week and there was no mention of David Tennant…
i mean honestly, this is absurd! Kaiser’s taste in men for these spreads is atrocious! it’d be nice if she started listening to what the readers want to see instead of ignoring them or putting down their choices (the comments on Matthew Gray Gubler for example). oh yeah, and enough with Clive whats-his-nuts and Gerard Butler, there are other men in this world you know. geesh!

Sidenote: How can people say they are not listened to on here? People’s requests are put up all the time. Of course I say this because a favorite of mine was put on, but I didn’t get enraged when I didn’t see him before that – I just figured no one had acquired my excellent taste yet – ha ha.

Thank you so much for Robert Pattinson – even when scrolling down I was half expecting not to see him because of his Sparkles and polyester Target pillows, so yea! -, Colin Firth, Ralph Fiennes, and Michael Sheen.

Kaiser, I have some news for you.
While you and I were busying fighting over who gets The Gandy (I don’t care what you say, I saw him first, he’s mine), my cousin swooped in and made off with him!
She works for a magazine and got to interview him on account of her editor being chums with The Gandy. She said he was really sweet, intelligent ad flirty. Grrr!! That’s not the worst of it. They swapped numbers AND he sent her flowers the next day!
WHITE MOTHERFUGGIN’ ROSES! THAT BITCH!
I just about died when I saw the pictures she posted of them posing together. He had his sexy arm around her! *Cries*. I’m not entirely surprised as my cousin is gorgeous and could be a model, I’m just incredibly jealous!!

Awesome, but NEEDS MOAR JACK DAVENPORT. I adore him and his gloriously deep, sarcastic voice. To hell with Orlando Bloom; I sat through the other two Pirates of the Caribbean movies just for him.
Hugh Dancy and Chiwetel Ejiofor and Colin Firth and Tom “A little bigger, darling” Hardy and my hot Welsh boyfriend Ioan Gruffudd made up for the lack of JackDav, though!
And–oh, Ralph Fiennes, I love you, I really do, but those teeth are veering beyond yellow into sunset orange there. Ouch.
Oh, and if you do the Canucks next, can I put in a request for Michael Wincott? I know he’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but I’ve had a crush on him for ages.

Kaiser, I know you woke up this morning and thought of me(truthSF), and decided to dedicate HGF to me. And for that, I will always LLLLOOVVVVE YOOOOOUUU!!!!!
And I will start with a huge spoon of Idris Elba, add a sprinkle of Clive Owen followed by a mixing of Colin Firth with some chunks of Chiwetel Ejiofor and Stephen Moyer and finish it up with Gary Oldman and Ralph Fiennes.
And now I’m full and satisfied!!!!!

I agree…you need to do a Canadian version!! There’s tons of hot actors that are Canadian..the list is endless…and you could even include a few hockey players. Because lets face it, we know how to breed hot hockey players in Canada. GET ON IT!

Woo for the last-minute inclusion of Paul Bettany. He really is an amazing and exciting actor. No two performances of his are the same. I really believe he’s one of the finest actors around.
Speaking of good actors, now that the tv series “Sherlock Holmes” has hit Americay, i shall start my campaign for the recognition of Benedict Cumberbatch’s cheekbones. He’ is very odd-beautiful.
Ohhh and thank you for those those gorgeous photos of Orly. That man is too beautiful. My knees tingled when I saw them. The I scrolled down to Mr. Bean and damn near passed out!
I’m putting in some costume porn, for the ladies who get off on old-timey military costumes (insert side-eye here).
You referring to me Kaiser darling?
That may have something to do with why I like Ioan as well. Period uniform pron in the shape of Horatio Hornblower
And much thanks for all the dashing Alan Rickman, Timothy Dalton (who David Gandy is like around the eyes) et al.
But I had the same reaction as Musey on one thing. It totally needs Jack Davenport – Miles from “This Life” is so much hotter than Egg (Andrew Lincoln)! You like a British accent, well he has a beautiful voice with crystal annunciation. Although I must say, I adore his wife Michelle Gomez more.
@Flibbertygibbett – Michael Sheen is in there because Kaiser knows I’d shank a bitch if he wasn’t

Nice collection, Kaiser! I was wondering if you were going to include my current crush, Richard Armitage & you did. Kudos!
I will never ever ever get behind Ed Westwick, Sparkles, or Andrew Garfield. NEVER. Too greasy, emo, and 10 head for me.

Oh My Goodness! Oh My Goodness! Is that Idris Elba that I spied with my keen eyes?!
Thank the Lord for blessing this Earth with a man so chocolately and fine and intelligent. I pray to the movie gods that he is selected as the first black James Bond.
Watching him on The Big C this season has been something more than an unexpected treat, although I was a fan of his before, I am definitely an even bigger fan now!
Whew… I need a cold shower before my very Filipino fiance finds me lusting after this very chocolately man….

OK, this was fabulous, really just fabulous.
But I must say… Daniel Day-Lewis was left off the Irish list and the British list, WTF! Have you never seen ‘Last of the Mohicans’? Come on, he is drool worthy.
Other then that, I will revisit this page a couple of times today!

Kaiser, I love you for including Damien Lewis, I am not much for gingers, but damn! I have watched BoB too many times, just to stare at him.
And now I will take a second look at Prince Harry!
And Rufus, sigh….
But you completely forgot Matthew McFayden! That end scene of him and Knightly in Pride and Prejudice, just swoooon!

No HGF is ever complete without Clive Owen.
I love Sean Bean and I know I shouldn’t because he is a bastard. But I do…
Rufus Sewell. Despite his wonky eye, I think he’s a hottie.
Finally, Hugh Laurie. He lights my fire.

Nice list AGAIN, Kaiser. Be still my heart for some of these hotties. My 1st husband was American, my final husband-British. Once you’ve had a taste, you never go back.

Met Alan Rickman in an airport when I was 15- he was very nice to me, and so I am a fan for life. He’s the best thing about Harry Potter.
Thanks for including Michael Sheen: “Gangway for foot cycle!”

Hmm… how much does a gal have to ask to have a little Damon Albarn on the HGF? Seriously, he and Jamie Hewlett were on the cover of UK GQ’s Men of the Year already.
It also wouldn’t hurt to throw a little Linus Roache into this mix either.
Other than that, beautiful beautiful HGF!!! There’s lots to drool over here.

I second Saphira! Too much pastiness, too much boyishness, and too much horrible aging going on in these pics.

Prince Harry is totally my favorite ginger! That one with the puppy is soooo sweet, it’s making me melt.
You know he would be so much more fun to hang with than his brother. I bet he’d keep you laughing the whole time.
I also agree about Jamie Oliver – first time I saw his show ‘The Naked Chef’ the way he spoke, and the amazing food, and those juicy lips…..
*sigh*
thanks for the great moments, Kaiser – YOU ROCK!

Great list, though I’ve realized that a substantial percentage of my lust for some of these men lies in the accent… it’s just irresistible.
Thanks for Sean Bean, who was THE hotness when he was younger, and I just love Sewell, Northam and Moyer.
Hell-lo Richard Armitage…must find out more about you. Ditto Tom Sturridge. How old is he again? I may have to wait for him to grow into his looks.
Jude Law is just sooo pretty…not my type though. And David Gandy… lordy, has there ever been a man with such perfect features?
Prince Harry is cute, but in that pic with the Mets hat he looks just like dear old dad… shudder.
Kaiser, since you like Jonny Lee Miller, how about James Van der Beek for a future HGF? They look so much alike!

I second the gaping hole where David Tennant should be, and James McAvoy for that matter – both are Brits technically speaking. Why no Jeremy Irons or Nigel Havers in the hot old dude category? Many, many omissions here, too much room donated to a boring model, yawn. Anyone who hasn’t seen Andrew Lincoln before Love Actually is missing out, he’s been around forever on British t.v. Speaking of which, Eddie Cahill & the hot dude from Merlin are current glaring omissions! And if loving Chuck Bass is wrong I don’t want to be right
Oh and True Blood man needs to put down the red hair dye now, yuck, it is wrecking the hotness.

Damn, I should have requested David Tennant (not English but Scottish, which still means British).

Just ask Richard Armitage Army of fans hehe… BTW, I’ve read he’s going to be in the “Hobbit” movie. Congrats, darling Richard and looots of good luck for your international carrier… You deserve it!

Kaiser, your HGF posts are the bomb. However, with a few notable exceptions, I find the English/British hotties here all smarmy and too… what’s the word…mamby pamby. And even with that I must thank you for letting me take the phrase “mamby pamby” out of the closet and dusting it off.
