John Stamos goes without pants for Paper Magazine: not bad or put it away?

wenn22910962

Prepare yourselves. John Stamos’ butt is about to happen. Stamos posed for Paper Magazine without pants, you see, because apparently Paper Magazine’s editors are all about the ass. Paper Magazine is the same magazine that ran that cover with Kim Kardashian’s oiled-up ass, plus they’ve been doing a lot of “provocative” editorials this year. But the Stamos Butt might be the most provocative one of all (not really). I’m including the butt photo at the end of the post, just so you guys aren’t confronted by dude-butt as the header image. Enjoy.

As for the larger feature, Stamos sat down for an interview because he’s promoting his Fox show, Grandfathered. He’s also appearing in My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2, and he’ll be appearing in Fuller House, the Netflix reboot of Full House. Some highlights from the interview:

The craziest thing he’s done all year: “Pose bottomless for PAPER.”

The most stressful part of his life: “Answering questions like this. And learning lines is the hardest part of the acting process.”

Whether he’s ever edited his Wiki page: “I never have — but I remember early on reading it and someone else edited in that I had done a bunch or porno films with very funny titles. Clever.”

The first website he checks in the morning: “The Huffington Post.”

Does he have a Google Alert for himself? “No way. I rarely read about myself — mostly because I’m tired of “me” — and also if you believe the good stuff, you have to believe the bad stuff. I just stay away.

He’s down with social media: “Sometimes they all drive me crazy. Other times, I’m thoroughly entertained. I’ve probably gravitated a little more towards Twitter, but I like Instagram quite a bit, too. Facebook is pretty cool. And I’ve been having a lot of fun on Snapchat lately.”

[From Paper Magazine]

I think if you’re an actor working on a dialogue-heavy show like… something Aaron Sorkin would write, then it’s okay to complain about learning your lines. But he’s working on a silly Fox comedy! And he finds it difficult to learn his lines? Eh.

Anyway, here’s the butt photo. I don’t know… I think it looks pretty good for a 52-year-old? Ten bucks says he got waxed.

    His butt is nicer than Kim’s.

  2. Kylie says:

    He has gotten really thirsty. It is clear he always thought he would have a better career but it never quite happened.

  3. MC2 says:

    Good morning!!!!

    • Joaneu says:

      No kidding!
      Not that I’m a Stamos fan but hey, you could start your afternoon reading/seeing worse things. 🙂

  4. GoodNamesAllTaken says:

    Annndddd…. He looks just as silly as a woman would in that pose.

  5. Maya says:

    No just no – John is hot but he seems to go through a midlife crisis with the arrest and attention seeking antics.

  6. SamiHami says:

    I don’t care how old he is. That is one fine butt!

  7. leigh says:

    Hate this pose. Never works.
    Also, man w/o shirt–sexy. Man w/o pants– not sexy.
    That said, he is 16 years older than me and has a better ass.

    • Esmom says:

      “man w/o shirt–sexy. Man w/o pants– not sexy.”

      THIS. No matter how nice the ass, it’s just a stupid-ass (!) pose.

    • Size Does Matter says:

      It’s especially weird since the drinking issues came out. Like he straight up got hammered and forgot his pants.

  8. mkyarwood says:

    I dunno. On the one hand, sure, there’s ‘too much’ nudity. On the other, the Western attitude toward nudity, in general, isn’t very healthy, so more of it from more people might serve to help loosen our Puritan strings a little. That’s why the breastfeeding ‘debate’ is end.less. It’s barely a conversation anywhere else.

    • vauvert says:

      Nudity is fine. Go to Europe, nude beaches, nobody worries about it. But in NorthAmerica nude beaches and breast feeding are “offensive” , OTOH we get inundated with the “sexy”. That is the problem, people thinking that the only way to look at a naked human body is to leer at a fit, conventionally attractive naked person in a very sexualized way. The two concepts – sexy and naked or partially naked – are joined at the hip. That is unhealthy.

    Uncle Jesse HAVE MERCY!

  10. astrid says:

    ehw

  11. kibbles says:

    He seems like a douche but you have to admit the guy is hot and looks great for his age. I think he looks way better than George Clooney and is ageing better too.

  12. Neelyo says:

    It’s nice but the lighting helps. The part where you’d see the sag is in shadow.

  13. Nev says:

    He should have done a remake of the Burt Reynolds spread. This seems a little coy for some reason. Go all the way!!!

  14. katie says:

    Skeevy and thirsty. Ick. Something about this pose always makes me think of a potty training toddler…

    • Regina Phelange says:

      Lol a shirt and no pants is totally toddler style.

      • Esmom says:

        LMAO. So true.

      • MC2 says:

        It’s a constant in my house! My pre-schooler got dressed for school once & had the shirt, coat, underwear, socks, rain boots, backpack, water bottle, lunch box and I asked “hey- what’s missing???”…it took him a good minute to suddenly realize “oh shoot- i forgot my pants!!!” It’s kinda important but I did feel like taking him to school anyway & finding out just how long it would take him to realize without me intervening…….I decided that could be a detrimental social experiment and so I called him out. College without me around is going to be good times!

    • Meli says:

      Yes, thank you! His butt is nice, but a no pants/shirt pairing is not at all attractive. He might as well be wearing a pair of socks, too.

  15. JudyK says:

    Nice butt, but put it away. I’m sick of looking at naked people.

    What kind of narcissistic world are we living in…I think there are a few things just a wee bit more important than how we look naked and why it has to be publicized to the entire world.

  16. kri says:

    It always bothers me to see people wearing shirts but naked below the waist. Reminds me of Winnie The Pooh. All shirt no pants. It’s not his age ( he’s in good shape) I just don’t think it’s sexy. It’s more like..”I feel a cold breeze…why…oh I FORGOT MY PANTS!

  17. snowflake says:

    Nice butt!!

  18. Skins says:

    He looks ridiculous

  19. goo says:

    Fabulous!

  20. Lola says:

    Oh what the hell is the point if you aren’t going to go frontal? Waste of time and space. #feelingpeedoff and #RIPPEDOFF!

  21. FingerBinger says:

    Stamos looks ridiculous.

  22. lisa says:

    i cant stop hearing “and this is where my poo comes out”

  23. Liberty says:

    I still like Stamos, But: Show me the back of a naked Viking-type ass, in like, a cave, or extreme conditions, maybe ok. (True Blood Skarsgard on a mountain in the snow, anyone?)

    Show me this guy with his leg in an ice-skating stop pose while tousling his hair like a girl in a bra ad and like, what, an Ann Taylor blouse, and you’ve lost me.

  24. Dawn says:

    I love this guy and still I don’t believe he needs to do this kind of Kartrashian photo shoot. Put him in a tux and just let him do his thing…he is just a cool guy.

  25. WinnieCoopersMom says:

    I think the idea of a naked John Stamos is sexy, but this was some poor execution. He should have been fully nude from the back (or nude and wearing socks), and definitely not posing like that. He needed some better direction on posing in a more masculine way. That said, he has a fine ass.

  26. mon says:

    Such a dumb photo:

    If you are doing nudity, then why are you covered waist-up? What is the point of the shirt? Is he so modest about his shoulders and lower back when he is showing off his ass?

    But if you are gonna wear the shirt, then why lose the shorts? Is this even real nudity?

    Such a meaningless shot. Like “I am in for a quick-y by the window, but cannot bother to take off by shirt, but will take off everything else including my socks for whatever reason even I do not know.”

    It is somewhat sad.

  27. JenniferJustice says:

    I’m not a Stamos fan and I find him schmarmy and conceited, however the line about “if you beleive the good stuff, you have to beleive the bad stuff too” was actually really admirable. I think he’s smarter than people give him credit for because he’s always been a pretty boy and known for being a cut up/funny, but I’d bet he has a pretty high IQ. Too bad he got caught up in the booze and blow. I think he could have done more career-wise if he’d stayed clean.

  28. Cupcake says:

    Something about this picture is just not sexy at all and I think JS is crazy hot so Paper basically did the impossible by making a sexy guy look not sexy while partially naked.

  29. EscapedConvent says:

    If that is a 52-year-old butt, I say Bravo. And I don’t recall any outrage when Burt Reynolds posed for Cosmopolitan.

    But it does kind of remind me of cartoon characters who swan about without their pants….

    And I think John Stamos has got more handsome with age.

  30. Breakfast Margaritas says:

    His butt is more bootylicious than I ever suspected. I’m not keen on a full butted man but it’s voluptuous on a woman to me.

  31. anon33 says:

    All this picture does is show me how skinny his legs are…

  32. Colette says:

    So thirsty he is almost dehydrated.Pathetic

  33. OrangeCrush says:

    He looks like he’s peeing against a wall.

  34. mary simon says:

    To answer the question, not bad, AND put it away. I feel like I’ve seen every celebrity’s ass and counting. I’m getting a little tired of everybody’s rear ends in my face.

  35. KBeth says:

    He’s a good looking guy but that pic is stupid & awkward.
