Hugh Jackman covers Men’s Fitness in a t-shirt, which is somewhat disappointing to me. However I know that Hugh Jackman shirtless photos occasionally come out, and that we’ll have lots of opportunities to admire his manly chest when Wolverine comes out at the end of next month. Maybe, if we’re lucky, he’ll do some frolicking beach candids as part of the lead-up. Here’s hoping! Also, Hugh fills out a t-shirt much better than meathead Joe Manganiello, who can’t act his way out of a paper bag. I was just reminded of that in the season premiere of True Blood. Someone needs to put those stupid methhead wolves out of their misery.

Getting back to Hugh, he’s gorgeous, he’s thoughtful, he’s polite, and he’s an all-around decent guy. He knows this too, and he explains it in a very matter-of-fact way, saying that it’s easier to be nice to someone than to tell them off. I’m going to try and keep this in mind in my day-to-day life, not that I have an anger issue but I will tell someone off for being rude. (Cutting in line is a pet issue of mine.)

On Dwayne Johnson‘s fitness advice: “He told me that if in a six-month period you want to put on 25 pounds of lean muscle and not fat, eat natural and eat 6,000 calories a day. There were times when I would literally eat with the mind set of working out. ‘One more mouthful, one more, come on, come on, you’ve got to finish this meal!’”

On being referred to as the Nicest Guy in Hollywood: “As an actor, I’ve always believed that any label is your enemy. Look, I was brought up in a way where you treat people with respect. So it’s certainly easier for me to be polite and respectful to people than to be an asshole. Like, if I’m walking down the street with my family and the 29th person says, ‘Hey man, can I get a photo?’ for me to say, ‘No photos, get f–ked’— for the next hour I’ll be thinking I shouldn’t have said that. Whereas, if I say either, ‘Yeah, no problem,’ or, ‘Listen, I’m with my family now, but it’s nice to meet you,’ then I move on, in a way it’s easier. It’s a mixture of that and also not being a wanker.”

On trying to be himself: “I try to be myself as much as I can when I’m not acting, for better or worse, but I’ve had publicists who’ve told me it’s a bad idea: ‘You move your hands too much, you did this too many times, you should do this, you shouldn’t talk about that.’”

I love him so much! I want to have Hugh’s babies and make whichever constant recipes he needs for his latest fad diets. I know he’s happily married and it’s not to be, but that just ads to the attraction for me. He is good, committed husband and father, and while Hugh is widely admired he just doesn’t get enough love. You know why that is? Because he’s not controversial. As he said, he’s just who he is and he doesn’t try to be anyone else. He’s a genuine person and that comes through in everything he does. Also, he better win an Oscar in the next handful of years.

Here are some more photos from last night’s premiere of True Blood Season 6, which premieres this Sunday on HBO and will hopefully fill the void left by Game of Thrones. Except… do people still watch True Blood? It’s not the water-cooler show that it once was, I think. That being said, there’s man meat and I know ladies love some Vikings, werewolves, etc.

I’m including photos of Alexander Skarsgard, smoldering in a grey suit. Personally, I think Alex looks the best out of all of these days, although I wish we had some better shots of his bulge. MMmm. I’m also including pics of Sam Trammel, who still looks just like Jason Trawick to me, and Ryan Kwanten, who could have been one of the cuter guys at the premiere, except he decided to wear a little boy’s double-breasted suit jacket. Seriously, he looks child-like. Like a child undertaker.

And of course, I’m including pics of Joe Manganiello. He always leaves me cold, but considering this wasn’t the Dong-Fest I was hoping for, I think I might have to rate Joe as my #2 Dong Choice, after #1 Skarsdong. Joe is going with a double-breasted suit jacket too, which I don’t really like. I don’t get why double-breasted suits are coming back…? It’s such a dated look. As for the grey in Joe’s beard… I don’t really hate it, but it does age him. He’s only 36!

Here’s the trailer for Season 6:

Last night was the LA premiere of Man of Steel, and holy mother of dongporium! It was a Hot Guy Festival, with a little something for every taste. Obviously, Henry Cavill is the big star, so I found it kind of surprising that he seemed so… muted. He made the same mistake Benedict Cumberbatch made when Cumby promoted Star Trek Into Darkness – women want to see your hair!! Don’t do the slicked-back, full-of-product, casino-pit-boss look. Let your curls be free! I also think this suit and that ugly tie were bad choices too, but whatever. Henry looks okay. He’s looked better. Also interesting: Gina Carano wasn’t there? She didn’t walk the red carpet, on his arm or separately. There are no photos of her. So I don’t know what to tell you. He’s mentioned her in every major interview he’s done, so I guess they’re still together, but she didn’t want to make a big fuss about the carpet.

Michael Shannon plays General Zod. Michael is EVERYTHING to me, so of course I would hit it. I didn’t know he had a hot wife though – she’s SO pretty! She looks a bit like Dita Von Teese, right?

Christopher Meloni can wear a suit! Stabler looks good.

God help me, but Russell Crowe still does it for me. He looks really good here!

Kevin Costner doesn’t do it for me, but they’re saying he’s very good in this movie.

Bonus Daniel Dae Kim, just because he’s hot.

These are photos from the permiere of director Joss Whedon’s Much Ado About Nothing, which promises to be an unconventional retelling of the William Shakespeare comedy. This is mostly a convenient excuse to post some photos of Nathan Fillion (who plays Dogberry), who is a fine specimen of manhood according to legions of fangirls (and boys) that fell in love with him throughout his Whedon run in shows like “Firefly” and “Serendipity.”

Would I hit it? Probably, but not when Fillion is dressed like this. Perhaps something more tailored could reel me in for a few hours, but this suit looks sloppy and gives me Enterprise Rental Car manager vibes. To be perfectly honest though, I’ve never had a big crush on Fillion even though he has a splendidly handsome face. Tall, lanky dudes are usually my type, but at times I do make beef-oriented exceptions like Chris Hemsworth. To clarify — yes, I’d hit Fillion at least once, but it would only be a fling, and he’d have to dress at least a little less sloppy. Not that clothing matters once it’s on the floor…

I’m including photos of Alexis Denisof (who plays Benedick) with Alyson Hannigan, and I’m throwing in some Joss Whedon for good measure.

I love Aaron Paul of “Breaking Bad,” bitches. He’s so lovely, he’s such a talented actor and the real guy is decent, smart, funny and interesting. In interviews he’s hilarious. (See this interview where they showed footage of him on The Price is Right about 16 years ago. I just watched it again and got so happy.)

So I have mixed feelings about these photos. Overall they’re giving me the warm and fuzzies in my pants, but at the same time Terry Richardson’s taint is one them like oil in a puddle. I’ll just try and ignore that aspect, in particular the photo of Aaron in Terry’s scummy glasses, and just focus on his piercing blue-green eyes. He’s so beautiful, even when he’s posed with his mouth hanging open. These photos were shot for British GQ Style.

Unfortunately Aaron, 33, won’t be single much longer. He’s marrying his fiance, activist Lauren Parsekian, any day now. I can’t hate on her though, she seems sweet and Aaron is so crazy about her. He talks about her like she’s the best thing ever and says things like “I couldn’t imagine myself being without her” and that he didn’t realize a love like that could “actually exist.” They’re adorable together. I have another cute story to share. On a whim, Aaron tweeted British pop star Ellie Goulding (“Lights,” “Anything Could Happen“) and asked her if she would play his wedding. She tweeted yes!

The “Breaking Bad” actor, who has been engaged to activist Lauren Parsekian since January 2012, took to Twitter Thursday to make the request.

“Hey @elliegoulding hope your day is going beautifully. Quick question, would you like to play at my wedding? Say yes,” Paul tweeted.

Goulding quickly responded, “@aaronpaul_8 ok” and then, “@aaronpaul_8 um soooo… When is it?”

“@elliegoulding said yes everyone!!! Call me for details and also let me know where I can send over a giant bribe gift. You’re amazing,” an excited Paul tweeted back. “Wedding is next month and you’re awesome. Where should I deliver my first born?”

Goulding also performed at Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding in 2011

That’s such a sweet story. Aaron and Lauren’s wedding must be coming up soon because this story is from April 19th. I hope we see pictures!

So yes, of course I would hit it hard, but none of us would get the chance because Aaron is a one-woman kind of guy. That just makes him that much hotter.

Oh let’s talk about Breaking Bad! Crap, for some reason I thought it was coming back in a month or two but the second part of this final fifth season isn’t airing until August 11. Why do they have to do that to us? Also, Saul is probably going to get a spinoff. Yes SAUL, the scummy yet level-headed lawyer, is likely to get a comedy spin off, according to Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan. Who am I kidding? I would watch it.

He looks high here, right?

Here is a hodge-podge selection of photos from the MTV Movie Awards – this is the Hot Guy post, although the hot men were not all that plentiful. I’m including Mackelmore (I can’t help it, I know he’s totally a d-bag bro, but he cracks me up), Eddie Redmayne (God, he’s SO CUTE), Tom Hiddleston (cheeseball), Seth Rogen (with his wife), Steve Carell (who I love but I would not hit it), Zachary Quinto (BAD suit), Jamie Foxx, and Chris Evans (cute, quiet). We don’t have any photos of Chris Pine, Bradley Cooper or Brad Pitt. Sorry! So I’m including some additional videos.

Here’s Will Ferrell winning his “Comedic Genius” Award. I like the way he handles his Kanye Moment with Aubrey Plaza.

Here’s Chris Pine, Zoe Saldana & Quinto presenting Best Fight.

Here’s Brad Pitt presenting Best Movie to The Avengers. He didn’t walk the red carpet or anything, so this is all we have.

These are photos from the Madrid premiere of Javier Bardem’s latest (Spanish-language) movie, Alacran Enamorado (Scorpion in Love), which was co-written by Javier’s older brother, Carlos, who also appears in the movie. In the movie, Javier plays a neo-Nazi boxer, and apparently, all of the boxing is real and no stunt-doubles were used. Supposedly, boxing is also used as “metaphor for life” in this film as well. Sounds interesting, I guess, as long as the neo-Nazi gets beaten out of the characters at some point.

Now I’ve harbored a pretty big crush on Javi (despite his own claims to Esquire that he has a tiny wang) for many years and even before he became big in the United States following his Oscar win in No Country for Old Men, but I didn’t know he had a brother who is also slightly easy on the eyes. Look at this display of brotherly love! I think Javi is more handsome than Carlos, but I’d still hit either one on any random day.

Here’s some photos of Javi by himself while he broods intensely for the flashbulbs. Those nostrils remind me of a Looney Tunes bull, but Javier is still mighty fine regardless.

Damn Liev Schreiber is looking good. Here we have photos of him on the beach in Malibu with his lucky partner, Naomi Watts, and their two boys: Sasha, 5, and Sammy, 4. I’ll be honest though, I’m not paying attention to Naomi or the kids, as cute as they are. All I can see are Liev’s abs. We saw shirtless photos of Liev last week also – Buzzfeed had some gorgeous high res pics that had me drooling. There were even a series of photos of him shirtless and pouring a big jug of water over himself. Those were kind of amazing, I suggest you go over there to see them. I’ll wait.

See? This dude is hot! I never imagined what he was packing under that suit, and I remember seeing photos of him last year. He was very fit back then but he’s buffed up even more since and it shows. I just checked and he’s 45! I thought he was about 39, and I would have guessed younger if he was just some random non-famous guy.

Liev has three movies coming out this year: Fading Gigolo, Last Days on Mars, and The Butler. Unfortunately I don’t think he plays the lead in Fading Gigolo, that’s John Turturro’s film and he’s pulling a Ben Affleck. Also, everyone and their mother is in The Butler. He does seem to have a major role in Last Days on Mars, it’s a scifi film about astronauts encountering sinister life on the planet. There’s no US release date for it yet, and no trailer. All I could find was this promo pic, which makes it look promising actually. Liev is really growing on me.

You know, if Liam Neeson and Bruce Willis can be action stars at 60 and 57, Liev can get some love too. He has time left to dazzle us in a hero role, and I’ll be waiting.

Here are some photos of Ben Affleck yesterday, showing off his newly shorn face with a little stubble. Ben off course shaved off his beard at a post-Oscar party, where he was likely doing tequila shots with George Clooney to numb the pain. US Weekly reported that his co-worker/wife brought some clippers with her in her purse and Ben did the deed in a hallway. You just know that he left hair laying around everywhere afterwards and that some poor worker had to sweep it up. Cleaning up hair is the worst.

Ben usually does it for me despite his extreme well-documented douchiness and constant disrespect of his wife. I thought he was really hot in Argo, in The Town, and in the crappy movies he starred in earlier in this career. (Although Forces of Nature wasn’t bad. I love Sandra Bullock.) Ben was looking especially manly to me with that beard, and I can imagine being Garner and dealing with his issues in exchange for the sexy times, if only in theory. In practice it’s probably just as much work as he’s making it out to be.

Without the beard he’s not as hot to me, and that’s weird because I usually like clean cut guys. (And bald guys! And Ben is usually neither.) Maybe it’s this doofy outfit he’s wearing, a too-big jacket over a checked shirt with jeans. (US Weekly has a better photo here.) This is some late 80s throwback outfit, when preppy was in. All he needs are some boat shoes to complete the look. He probably had a business meeting or something, but he could have kept it business casual and not as dorky.

In comparison, here he is just before the Oscars looking rugged as hell. Mmmm.

Then this. Ok, I take it back he’s still hot. Just not AS hot. My opinion of him has changed though too, I have to say.

Call me crazy, but this was one of the least exciting awards seasons as far as “bangable guys” went. Of course I love Hugh Jackman, and of course I want Daniel Day-Lewis to read the Emancipation Proclamation to me in bed. But there was no big biscuit-tingler, you know? Even though Michael Fassbender didn’t get an Oscar nomination last year, he was still around, at lots of events. Who do we have this year? Bradley Cooper? Sorry, no thanks. Channing Tatum? I love him, but it’s not a “let me rip off your clothes” sort of thing. I adore Jeremy Renner and his guyliner, but he was meh for me last night too.

So, you’ll pardon me if I just want to throw these photos at you. Enjoy! I’m including pics of just the men I think you’ll enjoy. The list: Hugh Jackman, George Clooney (his beard looks like my dad’s), Ben Affleck, Jack Nicholson, Jeremy Renner, Robert Downey Jr., Bradley Cooper (crazy eyes), Daniel Day-Lewis, Chris Pine, Justin Theroux (crazy eyes), Christoph Waltz, Eddie Redmayne, Daniel Radcliffe, Jean Dujardin (who was lovely last night), and bonus Meryl Streep (just because).
