Thanks to Dlisted for the heads up on this crazy PETA ad starring Dave Navarro. I couldn’t believe my eyes, honestly. Because I used to love him. And now I don’t know what to feel about him. Part of me thinks this ad is hot, part of me, not so much. The “not so much” part is looking at his Batman tattoos. One Batman tattoo can be a drunken mistake – but one of each shoulder? Oh, honey. No. But I do like that he isn’t waxed into oblivion. I like his hair. All over.
Now, for some backstory – back in what youngsters refer to as “the olden days” there was a stellar, amazing, mind-blowing band called Jane’s Addiction, and they rocked my tween world. Guitarist Dave Navarro’s otherworldly beauty and penchant for dark eye makeup and moody complexity (in my tween mind) was a powerful aphrodisiac. It still kind of is, even though the guy has been married and divorced to Carmen Electra, and in interviews he sort of loses that moody complexity. Not that he’s a bad guy – he actually seems rather funny and intelligent.
Now tell me after watching this… is Navarro still hot?
I think he’s definately hot!
gross. disgusting. yuk. projectile vomiting ensues
Oh, YUM. Yes, still hot. The Batman tattoos are WTF but whatever….and thanks for pointing out his delicious body hair. I didn’t watch the vid but based on those pics (especially the last one with the smoke hanging out…)Seriously hot.
The only thing I don’t like is that he’s staring at the camera like he’s Criss Angel or however that a-hole spells his name.
ok, call me crazy but the PETA add looks like David Blane’s face pasted onto Dave’s body! It doesn’t look like his face at all! Maybe it’s the angle?
HE is hot.
the ad? not so much. they photoshopped the hot right out of his face.
he now looks like a cheap imitation.
MK sums it up best: “Furry man thighs” LOL
And maybe its photoshop– or maybelline, which you know he prolly does wear now and then
Dave is HAWT!!!!!! Yummy, love his PETA ad and love the ink.
is there a third option? like maybe, silly?
wonder what he claims the carmen electra ‘ce’ on the chest stands for now? can’t even? could eventually?
Ugh.
Pure Hotness! The fact that he’s an animal lover makes him even hotter!
gross.
His eyebrows look like Blaine and it’s the angle.
Dave used to be hot until he got too much exposure, no pun intended. Mysterious is interesting – overexposure is not interesting.
He’s a bit of both to me. Sometimes hot, sometimes, ughhhhhhhh. If you follow his tweets you may agree. He’s out there. Definitely not liking the bat tats.
Ah, bless – he still hasn’t covered up the CE tatt.
If he is going for a weird look, he’s nailed it.
Odd, but I can’t rule out hot. Maybe they could get Perry Farrell to do it too, he looks amazing
No vote on the hot part, but dude has mad guitar skills. He did time with the Chili Peppers as well. He was freaking hilarious on the series Z-rock on IFC. For those who haven’t seen the series, it has great cameos, Dee Snider (the real one, not SJP), Dave Navarro, Joan Rivers, John Popper from Blues Traveler and others. Haven’t seen any new episodes this year so I hope it didn’t get shit canned. He’s playing a Paul Reed Smith Electric in that 2nd photo. Jealous.
I heard him say once that he will always keep the “ce” tattoo because she was an important and beautiful part of his life and he would never want to forget her or what they shared so why get rid of the tatt..I’m paraphrasing but you get the idea. I think he’s cool as hell and definitely lives on his own terms and yet seems to do it with respect and love for others.
I love the double batmans..adds balance and symmetry to the overall look.
He’s hot. Sexy, kinda dirty, been through some internal wars and gained wisdom and maturity brand of hot.
hot, hot, hot
not
Yuck.
Dave Navarro is a classic ego-manic. I get it, he’s sexy and hot and has an amazing body and the ad is in good fun. However, he’s still an raging narcissus.
I the ad is hot but I have never really been a fan of his. Still hot tho!
Gross
I thought he was pretty hot until this moment..just leave me with Chris Cornell instead…thanks
*sigh* Jane’s Addiction is one of the best bands of those times…I remember seeing them numerous times at 7th Street Entry and First Avenue in the late 80’s and early 90’s. Perry is much hotter though and mucho talented…
Normally hot. Many of his tats seem not to be too well done though.
When people get involved with PETA, it gives me pause. They seem like such an extremist organization.
He’s H.O.T., yum yum yum always thought it always will. and btw this: “youngsters refer to as “the olden days” there was a stellar, amazing, mind-blowing band called Jane’s Addiction, and they rocked my tween world. Guitarist Dave Navarro’s otherworldly beauty and penchant for dark eye makeup and moody complexity (in my tween mind) was a powerful aphrodisiac.”
is hot too!!!
Jane’s Addiction still has regular rotation in my playlist, so Dave is always going to have a special place in my heart. That being said, when did he turn into the pint-sized version of Tommy Lee?
Dave looks good and I like the ad, except for the fact that it’s for the asshats at PETA. I’m not a fan of fur by any means (you couldn’t PAY me enough to wear it) but PETA is a bunch of freaks that go all ape-shit about their principles to the point where you can’t even take them seriously! 🙁 They have the best of intentions but go over-board with it to the point of just being obsessive and psychotic.
I love Jane’s Addiction and I know he’s a talented musician, but the way he presents himself just screams poseur to me. Like he’s trying way too hard.
Definitely HOT! Although PETA should have been more discreet and have him upper his hands a bit more to cover his pubes.
gross.
GROSS
HOT
WOULD. DEF. SMASH! OMFG!
I saw Jane’s w/ NIN this summer (twice) & I have to say that Dave is still HOT! At least on stage w/ the batman’s covered up (but not by much). I was very disappointed at the 2nd show that he didn’t take off his shirt midway though. Such nice abs…
Oh – and @Maritza – I’m going to assume that he needed his hands that low to cover other things…
Would I let him hit it? No, I don’t think so,but he’s hot.
I would think he was hot if he wasn’t in a PETA ad. I cannot stand PETA.
He’s trying too hard to make his hands look long. Nahh wouldn’t hit it but he does have charisma, I will give him that.
Yum! He is my celeb crush!
yes, Yes, OMG! YES!
Somebody needs to do some squats and leg presses.
he’s hot … period
He’s hot and he waxes. Sigh.
I hate PETA and everyone associated. Nothing good to say about them. But if they have to run these ridiculous “ads”, then it’s way past damn time those jerkoffs put some naked MEN in their ads.
Hot but… too much is too much 🙂
Hey, extremely good website. I am also working on this topic. I infect came through this on Google and I am Happy I did, I am just absorbing as a lot info as I can at the second, keep updates. Thank you.
Totally gross.
I have never seen tis guy with one hair out of place. He looks like the type that needs to take half a day to go to the corner store.
