Ryan Phillippe is currently in Europe promoting The Lincoln Lawyer, and it looks like he brought along his on-again new girlfriend, the lovely Amanda Seyfried. There are new photos of Amanda and Ryan out in Paris yesterday and now Ryan is in Berlin along with Matthew McConaughey. Both of these men are attractive to me although they’ll never be at Matt Damon or Leonardo DiCaprio levels. McCoaughey needs to gain ten pounds and Phillippe needs to shave that beard. He’s probably trying to fight that sweet baby face that will stay with him the rest of his days.
I think Seyfried is gorgeous, I found her kind of captivating in that glurge fest Dear John, (she looks like a cartoon character with that hair and those giant eyes) but we know she has piss poor taste in men. From most reports Ryan has been stringing her along, but maybe he’s ready to play it serious now that his ex wife has so spectacularly moved on. (Or not, depending on your perspective.)
You get the sense with Ryan that he’s never quite satisfied, that the one he has on the hook will never be as interesting as the random girl in the bar, that he tries to suppress it and then feels guilt when he finally strays, when that itch gets too persistent not to scratch. (I went on too long with that, I know.) Or maybe he really does love and respect Amanda and he’s ready to show it. I doubt it, he also brought Abbie Cornish to events with him and he was stepping out on her all over the place.
Compare how Amanda looks while she’s out with Ryan to how she looks while she’s alone. It’s probably not fair to judge though as the paparazzi probably aren’t hounding her as much in the shots where she looks happy.

Matt Damon and Leonardo Dicaprio??!
Blech to both of those carb faced toads!
When your Ex gets remarried, it’s a good time to get out of the country.
I wish Amanda would find a guy who is just for her. It seems to me, that all of the men she chooses have too much baggage.
Ryan and Reese married so young and I think he is sowing his wild oats and is not ready to be tied down again.
I’m right with you, Marjalane – although we’d probably need some shirtless beach shots to make a truly accurate comparison! And whilst Leo is the only one of the 4 who hasn’t had his last few movies bomb spectacularly, his modeliser tendencies would suggest an inner-douchebag at least equal to Ryan Philippe’s.
totally agree marjalane, leonardo dicaprio and matt damon are nothing on these two!
The look on Ryan’s face is the look of a man who’s already checked out of the relationship.
Move on Amanda.
This relationship is definitely not going to last much longer. She looks miserable and like she’s inhibited or something around him. I think she’s a young girl with bad taste in men and doesn’t yet value herself enough to expect to be treated right or to see what happiness is or isn’t. Of course, I could be wrong about my assessment of her (because how the hell could I possibly actually know?), but I do think I’m right that this is not going to last (and probably isn’t very satisfying right now).
It’s amazing how that beard only pronounces the femininity of Ryan’s face even more.
And WHY is Matthew sporting a mullet?
I think Amanda has a very distinctive face which looks great with the right make up and hair but in her everyday look I don’t find her attractive.
Hmm, I think I would put Ryan up there with Leo. He looks about 5 years older than he did in ‘Cruel Intentions’ to me.. may be it’s just flattering photos.
that’s odd, when I leave the hotel I am always smiling 😉
Well Matt and Leo may not be as pretty as these two but they but have more talent, onscreen charisma & magnetism ergo they are sexier…(Also Ryan is such a douche). I saw the Lincoln Lawyer it wasn’t bad but it would have been better as a TV movie (I know they barely make them anymore). I can see both of these guys ending up on a procedural drama on TV within the next 10 years.
LOL at the carb face comments on my picks Matt and Leo. Well, mln explained it better than I can. I find them sexy because they’re talented and charismatic. But yes I get the carb face complaints. 8)
Carb face! I died! Leo much more so for me. I was JUST thinking that after seeing the last post on here with his picture. He was squinting and I thought, my what a large head. It made me feel better bc I think that I have a large head/face too!
Can anyone else not STAND Seyfried? She’s gorgeous, but def shouldn’t do any interviews until she gets some coaching.
I do find her very beautiful. Never found Matt Damon or Leo to be that attractive!
That smiling pic of Amanda “alone” is actually her walking toward Ryan. These two keep it nailed down because they are not in it for the show. It’s impossible to tell how people really feel about each other from pap pix. Maybe they’ll last and maybe they won’t, but I don’t fault them for giving it a go.
Hi other Danielle.
I had to add the 352 bc of you! 😉
MM does need to gain at least 10 pounds. Wonder why he is looking so svelte? For a new role perhaps? I still love him. Wish I could cook a few meals for him to help him gain some weight.
Isn’t Rumer Willis the original carb face? If she’s potato then Leo deserves to be donut.
celebitchy i skipped the post on leo based on the pic alone because im a huge fan of his and didnt wanna face reality
i know for a fact hes a great guy though
There is absolutely no chemistry here. Could they look any more miserable??
Ryan’s pretty to look at, and I loved him in Gosford Park. But he does seem to have a wandering eye, not exactly steady boyfriend or husband material.
Why are these two together? There doesn’t seem to be any chemistry at all, like they’re not even attracted to each other. Is this a publicity thing?
Has anyone seen the Lincoln Lawyer? MM and RP were great.
Ryan’s eyebrows are too girly. Do not want.
They seem like a good pair as they always look pissed off in photos.
I don’t know what it is… I just don’t find him attractive at all.
I don’t know if it’s the ‘serial-cheating douche’ thing, or because my brother (who’s 19) looks a liiiitle bit like him.
Totally sucks when someone who’d otherwise be hot reminds you of a sibling, thus ruins it for you.
So why does the trip have to be a reaction to his ex-wife’s wedding? They have been divorced for years, been through many other relationships and he cheated on her. I doubt very much he cares that Reese remarried, and probably took a trip with his piece of the week because it is Paris, Springtime and something to do.
WOW!! anytime I looked that miserable and the guy walked in front of me the whole time, I DUMPED HIM!
Sittingpat, they’re DEFINITELY in it for the show, at least SHE is. He’s a perpetual douche, and she’s a fame climber.
he just exudes douche.
I think it’s less a reaction to Reese’s wedding and more about the possible baby.
I have the same boots as her! Love them.
I don’t think traveling together is as serious for hollywood couples as it is for the rest of us. If I had all their money and time, I’d be traveling constantly – and it’s better with company.
Ryan is beautiful.
There. I said it! A decade after “Cruel Intentions” and he’s still hot 😀
Kaiser, I think your explanation of Ryan is RIGHT ON. Just as other bloggers have noted…the look on Ryan’s face…how he’s walking ahead…in his mind, I think, he’s already dreaming of “who’s next.” Sad. Also, Amanda looks happier when she’s not tagging along w/Ryan.
@ Iggles: OMG YES. I always think he’s really attractive, despite the fact that my taste generally skews towards older, manly men, e.g., Clive Owen.
Wow Ryan looks yummy here. I like what he’s wearing and the facial hair. Just based on body language from all of their pictures, Amanda seems way more invested than he is. Poor girl
@Phoenix Ryan doesn’t age! He still looks so young
What is up with his eyebrows?! looks like he’s moonlighting as Phillipa Ryan in his spare time!
Ryan does seem deep in thought. And I actually do think he brought along ‘flavor of the month’ to keep his mind off the fact that his ex just got married. I think he will always love Reese, the mother of his children. They married and had children too early in life and now there are regrets that will no doubt be life long. Sorry Amanda. You are too young and dumb to understand.
Don’t find Ryan Phillippe all that attractive in the least, so I’m going to disagree with the Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCaprio comments MAJORLY.
23, I saw it and I completely agree with your assessment. 🙂
FYI they’re still in Paris. They were on Le Grand Journal TV Show, live tonight and they were smoking hot! Dayum!
I think Ryan is very hot, but the douchstastic levels that he reaches kinda put the kibash on the hotness.
She’s weird looking to me. Those eyes -she reminds me of a fish. *shrug*
As others have noted, he looks like he’s already checked out of the relationship. Next!
Not sure why going to Paris has *anything* to do with his ex. And wasn’t he there promoting a film? So what if he brought his (bug-eyed) piece with him?
He looks nowhere happy. Paris means romance and I don’t see any on his face. It is me or Matthew looks a little bit gayish?
Hi CB! Matt Damon, George Clooney, Robert Pattinson and Leo DiCaprio do some of the better interviews out there, and that’s why I like them. 🙂 I don’t find any of them hot or sexy or cute.
I don’t find Ryan Phillippe hot or sexy or cute, either. His behaviour just negates anything that might be attractive about him.
Ryan does seem to have issues. I would say he has self esteem issues and perhaps rather than settling with and loving someone, he keeps trying to prove himself over and over with many women. I would say a woman who dates him at this point in his life is making a mistake. It seems like he needs to focus on working through his issues before seriously dating anyone else.
No matter what people say these two always look like friends with benefits to me.
He probably went to Paris to get away from American reporters asking him about his ex-wife’s marriage. Taking Amanda with him kills two birds with one stone.
Have to say though, whatever she’s doing is agreeing with her – she’s been looking good lately.
I kinda always hoped that Ryan and Reese would get back together someday i really think that they love each other
they are a perfect match: one is a douche and the other is a doormat.
