Here are some new photos of Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe at the Sydney premiere of Les Miserables today… or yesterday… or tomorrow? At some point. Don’t ask me to figure out the time difference. I think it was “today”. I know you ladies will continue the long-standing fight about Hugh and how cute he is and whether or not he would be into you, and while you’re yelling about that, I will grab Russell Crowe and take him to my special place (“Bone-ville”). I know, he looks like a chubby, middle-aged d-bag, but I’m still into it. RUSTY 4 EVA.
So I thought I would take this opportunity to wish everybody merry Christmas and happy holidays. All of us here at Celebitchy hope that you stay safe and warm and happy, and that nothing cracked-out happens. If you are in the club and Lindsay Lohan walks in, just leave. The last thing you need is for your face to “accidentally” get in her fist’s way. Be careful while driving and try to get some Christmas Dong. I really am thinking of flying to Ireland to try to put a big red bow on THIS ONE.
Happy Holidays!

Seriously, is that even a question? Hugh is heavenly. Russell, as someone said on this site last week, looks like a homeless dude who’s been given a bath and a suit for the evening.

Exactly! Hugh has aged so well over the years. Russell’s hotness,on the other hand, expired about 5-7 years ago.

Honestly, I think Russell was only really hot in ‘Gladiator’. And then it wasn’t so much his looks, as that leather gear and all that macho fighting. Any half decent looking actor would have looked super hot in that role.
In ‘normal’ clothes, however, Russell has always looked pudgy and jowly. He’s never been a conventionally handsome guy, but the aura of Maximus Decimus Meridius made some of us forget that for a while.

Christina… yes. What you said. I always thought I was hot for Crowe in Gladiator, but now I realize it was Maximus Decimus Meridius that I wanted all along! Anyone seen HIM lately?

While I agree that Russell’s hotness died a really quick death after Gladiator, he did have a certain je ne sais quoi in LA Confidential.

@bluhare
Agreed. Again, I think it was more a certain ‘manliness’ he portrayed, rather than any special handsomeness, which made him attractive in that film. Now, he just looks bloated and doughy. NOT attractive.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
Someone around here said that they can’t believe Russell’s a movie star – he looks like he should be a plumber or similar which is a spot on assessment of his looks. He did have a hot body for gladiator, but aside from that he’s simply never been handsome or hot and never looks good in a suit, here he also appears to have a massive hangover which isn’t helping. However, Hollywood needs some actors who look like “regular people” don’t forget! Often when someone is a tad unattractive by Hollywood standards, I can buy them better in a lot of roles.

I saw this picture earlier and thought if only Russell hit the gym like Hugh does and spent a bit more time on his hair (i.e. having some), it would help a lot. Hugh works hard to bring the sexy. Russell has just let it slide. But if Crowe actually took care of himself again, who knows?

Russell’s lack of hair was for the film he just finished, Winter’s Tale. He also has a scar on his face in the movie.

I used to think Russell, when he was Gladiator and then he faded into his entitled, ridiculous ways. Now, it’s Hugh, Hugh, Hugh. Not only because he’s handsome on the outside but even more beautiful on the inside.
HOWEVER, if there is indeed a Fassbender under the Christmas Tree, then it’s Irish all the way. Sigh.

Russell lost his hotness years ago… Plus with his over inflated sense of self he would probably be a selfish lover.

Dunno about after the foreplay but if you’ve ever watched Russell’s kissing scenes, it sure looks like the ladies are enjoying themselves. But it is kind of sad how the over-the-top hotness dies for everybody, eventually. I suspect with Russell, at least after the sex and the looks are gone you’d still have something interesting to talk about.

At one time I’d have been all hot and bothered just at the very idea of having a go at Russell Crowe, but now he looks like he is made of dough, and is also a basset hound. Until very recently I always thought Jackman just looked proportionally weird and that he wasn’t very handsome (although I loved him as an actor), but for some reason in the last month or so he’s suddenly hot to me.
I’m so sad that Crowe circa Gladiator was a passing fluke and nothing more. Booo! He was insanely hot. Makes me definitely want to take care of myself because if he can go from *that* to *that* in just a few short years I’d better be extra careful.

Definitely Russell, not for as much his looks as his intensity. Hugh on the other hand has always pinged my ‘aydar. Even in his Wolverine days, yes he was nice to look at, but I could never think of him as sexy cuz I just assume he plays for the other team. Never, ever had that feeling about Russell.

Didn’t Russel turn down the role in “Australia” opposite Nicole? Thank God… Hugh is the real saving grace of that movie (and the cinematography). Nicole’s overly botoxed face ruins it for me.

Russel. Because his hotness isn’t about his appearance (especially not in a photograph), it’s about his inherent badassery and masculinity.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
If I may go off on a tangent, I agree with you about Nicole Kidman and Australia, but I think it is more than a
botoxed face. I never thought she was that good an actress. Just got some good parts, and was pretty good in some of them, but she was going on reputation. I think of her as a little girl playing dress up. I think that people blame her face for what was already there. I also blame Baz Lurman. I think he could have directed her better. Her singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow was horrible. Should have been cut. Hugh is smart enough to get the right nuances in there, but I don’t think she is. Still a shame about her face. Merry Christmas to you all.

I am not sure how there is even a question?? Hugh, obviously. I do not even care of he was gay. He is gorgeous and seems to have a great personality as well. I prefer him when he looks like Wolverine, but I will take him anyway I can get him! To me personally, Russell Crowe is gross. Gross, bloated and stumpy looking. Even when his body was in better shape, I have never liked his ruddy ,jowly face. BARF.

I remember Russell still being hot in Proof of Life – not sure the year. He wasn’t bad looking in that awful A Good Year. So he was able to muster up the hot for a while after Gladiator.
Here he looks like an aged Bud White. Not a great look. While I can certainly see Hugh’s attraction he just doesn’t do it for me. So for me, I think I have to wash my hair tonight.

For me, the only one of these two that I have heard almost non-stop gay rumors about is Hugh. I’m wondering what all the gay talk is about. I could care less of either one is gay, as long as I get the performance I pay for at the box office. And that is for Hugh and Russell.
