Who is the most beautiful man of all time?

Alain Delon is so beautiful, it's disturbing. I can't possibly nominate anyone to compare. I read that he was a male prostitute in his early years. His line of colognes is actually rather nice.

Yes, I think no one will ever hold a candle to him.

He should have donated his sperm. Thousands of sperm banks around the world should have given out his sperm instead of that ugly community college math teacher.

I’ll go for Alain too.

My ass owns this thread

Lambert Wilson

Guy Madison

George O'Brien

Alain Delon was stunning. Tom Selleck, Peter Gallagher, Tyrone Power and Robert Taylor would also get my vote.

George looks very contemporary in that picture.

Handsome and masculine but not beautiful.

Rod Taylor.

This latest crop of male "sex symbols" all have horse faces. Delon was absolutely gorgeous.

Young Tom Selleck was a stunner

Even back then, Selleck had a cheesy hairpiece.

errol flynn has sex appeal but he wasn't breathtakingly, traffic stopping handsome. same with tyrone power and gary cooper. could robe lowe compete with alain?

Quite the right-winger, apparently.

Not against gay marriage...oh but wait...against same sex couples adopting. Adorable!

But yes, in his prime, I think he was untouchable in the looks department.

Another vote for Guy Madison

Why did it take 18 posts for Paul Newman?

Let's just get JFK Jr. out of the way.

Well, if we've done JFK, Jr., might as well bung in the young, hot Jussie Trudeau.

Don't forget me!

Often overlooked or forgotten nowadays, Gregory Peck. He could be pretty or rugged, fine or macho, elegant or tortured, and like Newman, he looked good from young, til old.

Paul Newman because he was fine and also a good person

Gregory Peck gets my vote.

OT, Alan Delons son Anthony, who looks good and probably better today than as a young actor.

But he looked good as young, too

Elvis

Nino Castelnuovo

Marlon.

agree about Alain Delon

The only man who might have made me reconsider my options. Yul Brynner.

My vote goes to Peck too. Gorgeous man, inside and out. That kind of class is sorely missing from our world today.

Paul Newman, yes, he's equally in the same category.

Definitely Gregory Peck, but I think Paul Newman is a close second.

Christopher Reeve

I think I'd pass them all for Keanu

Besides Elvis, some honourable mentions to musicians Robert Plant, David Sylvian, Bowie, JBJ, Cobain

R38 HOT BUSH!

Horst Buchholz

Horst is cute. Looks a little like Marian Gold from Alaphaville

Pietro Boselli is fairest in all the land...

Helmt Griem

Porfirio Rubirosa

R43 HA, what passes for modern day 'beauty' seems distinctly lacking compared to the stunning golden age men

Young Cary Elwes.

Mr. Franco Nero was a deliciously handsome man in his youth. Masculinely beautiful. Alain Delon's beauty was almost feminine.

Since Paul Newman has already been mentioned, I'll add Jeffrey Hunter.

R7 Guy is hot

what am i, chopped liver?

and i did it gay!

Shemar Moore is a beautiful man but I don't know how to post a pic.

Young Tab was quite the looker.

OP let me introduce you to Montgomery Clift. He was the ultimate male Beauty in his heyday. Alain does not compare, he just looks like a more prettier feminine version of James Dean, that's all.

I wouldn't toss a single one out, but Alain Delon and Guy Madison were Gods.

As he got older and craggier, Sterling Hayden became a very good actor, but when first starting out he relied on his blonde beach boy looks, which were a close contender with Ryan O'Neal's

Monty in colour <3

So many luvly mins.

R16 Oh god that's an unfortunate sight! lol Bigots tend to age badly.

David

That's how big it is, bitches.

Alain Delon was strikingly handsome as was Paul Newman. As for Jerod Leto. I saw him up close about 15 years ago and he was quite amazing looking in person.

Kevin Zegers

Art Hindle

Omar Sharif.

Special mention to Rufus Sewell in his heyday for his absolutely incredible eyes.

Brad Pitt twenty five years ago

My choice would be Massimo Girotti, the Italian matinee idol probably best known in the USA for playing the lead role of the drifter in Visconti's "Ossessione."

I always get Sterling Hayden mixed up with Sterling Holloway, who did the voice of Winnie-the-Pooh in the Disney cartoons.

Mel Gibson

You have good classical taste, R66. Both in Girotti's beauty and Visconti's gorgeous films.

Delon was pretty but he was so boyish for a long time. Hardly a "beautiful man" of the Robert Mitchum variety.

He even has a lovely penis.

Trim, smooth and elegant all over.

me me me!!

Look at this photo of trim little Mel, I found looking for Delon pics. Click it so you an see a tease of his TINY speedo.

Serious Mel

Mitt Romney

Baldwin was beautiful in a masculine way when he looked like this:

Rupert Brooke a.k.a Phoebus Apollo.

Model Christian Hogue, perhaps. Well-proportioned people with dark hair and light eyes are usually very memorable.

Most male models (of the classic tall beefcake type) are by definition more beautiful than most actors.

But it's often hard to focus on models' beauty because many are OTT navel-gazing (even more so than actors). It makes their beauty seem trivial.

Young and trim Sean Connery

Rodney Harvey.

Tab and Rudolf were both gorgeous

Rudolf

Lynden David Hall

I got all these bitches beat by 2000 years!

Forgot the link for Rodney Harvey.

If were going to expand to couples: Randy & Cary.

well we never get extended access to most male models. David Gandy is gorgeous and particularly had a sweet spot in his late 20s early 30s. But I get to watch the slightly less gorgeous (but similar looking) Luke Evans do lots of things as an actor.

My grandmother always said "What a beautiful man" when Tyrone Power came on the television in some old movie, but I always got a funny feeling down there for Tyrone's buddy Cesar Romero

This sort of suave, elegant, yet carnal and imperfect Latin guy always seemed like the best. He's fucking you with his eyes.

Kevin Zegers has always been supernaturally beautiful to me. Zac Efron somehow became a big star, but Kevin didn't. They have similar looks, but Kevin is prettier and a better actor. Guess it really is all about luck.

Luke Evans is much less attractive than David Gandy.

Pretty Boy Tony and Cesar.

Yes luke is not nearly as pretty but he was really gorgeous to watch in the Alienist.

Tammy Cruise

Interesting addition, R85. Antinous was reputed to be very handsome indeed. But hardly a "man" - more a teenage boy. He died aged only about 18.

I like how they use the euphemism "boy favorite" to describe him on that website. He was more likely a teenage concubine. He was only around 13 and his probable sugar-daddy, Hadrian, was 48 when they met. (Pederasty with young teens was socially allowed back then.) And in just 5 years, Antinous was dead at only 18, before even reaching full manhood. Very unfortunate.

Young Danny Roberts was a sight to behold.

Jude Law

That's easy, OP. Donald Sutherland

Errol Flynn

This 16th century Flemish gentleman has an everlasting beauty.

I've always had a thing for John Payne, of Miracle on 34th Street.

Marvin Gaye.

R101 that is a photo

Skant competition, so far.

I'm showing my age here. Swarthy French actor Jacques Bergerac. He appeared as a guest star on many American TV shows in the late 50s-early 60s. I once saw him shirtless. I had an immediate (unaided) physical response.

He married Ginger Rogers and Dorothy Malone. At the time I wished he was gay and I wasn't a teenager.

Matt Lattanzi was a stunner. Then he went bald.

This guy

Albert, Prince Consort

Brazilian race car driver, Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves. His personality is delightful. He won "Dancing with the Stars" in one of its early seasons.

Rick Springfield in his prime, would definitely be on the list.

David Essex

R104 No, it's a painting.

Chris Dickerson. The first openly gay Mr. Olympia winner in 1982. Later became a Colt model.

[quote]Shemar Moore is a beautiful man but I don't know how to post a pic.

Here ya go . . .

R113 Actually it is a modern photograph by Macedonian fashion designer and visual artist Nikola Eftimov, in the style of the 16th Century Dutch Masters.

You can lead a horse to water....

Andy Garcia

Tyrone

My maternal grandmother liked those Black Irish looks of Tyrone. My father looked like Tyrone - now I wonder if my grandmother encouraged her there. Me, I liked the real McCoy - the latins (who according to the mythes helped create the "Black Irish"). John Gavin - né Juan Vincent Apablasa! Not so different in looks but something still.

I always looked forward to Spartacus. My grandfather's sister was a fan of peplums and a smoker. She had a sunporch with a television and I would go over and watch the bible and gladiator movies with her. She served Fresca and mixed nuts, sometimes peanut brittle. Smoking up a storm and eye fucking the gorgeous men on her color teevee.

Harry Belafonte was one of the handsomest men of the 50s and 60s. He stayed extremely good looking well into old age. He is now 92 I think.

Special mention to Rufus Sewell in his heyday for his absolutely incredible eyes. Absolutely! Marvin Gaye was the King of Cool. Don't forget Sidney Poitier.

Gary Cooper. Plus, those extra inches where it counts don't hurt. Well, they might.

Sting when he was with The Police.

Agree R55

Hayden was a god

Ed Fury was pretty cute.

Body-ody-ody.

I love Paul McCartney because of the music he is responsible for. I think he was very easy on the eyes when he was young and well into middle age too. Never thought he was beautiful and never thought of him in a sexual way, but anyway, this pic epitomizes his youthful good looks.

A young Chris Isaak has to be in contention.

after doing my Paul Mc post and then seeing Chris Isaak mentioned, got to say, yeah, that is beautiful. music is OK + , but Chris definitely brings the heat. Still more paulistic but kudos to Chris and his looks.

The late Japanese actor Toshiro Mifune/ 三船 敏郎：

Mifune:

GUY was definitely in the TOP FIVE

ERROL would also be in the TOP FIVE

SEAN would be in the TOP FIVE

Tom Payne, who used to be on The Walking Dead. Pretty eyes.

Who is that in R4's post. When he winks at me I swoon.

The man in R4 is ERROL FLYNN

Vincent Perez

Don’t see anything lacking here, Alai..., er, I mean r46

R141 you beat me to it. Came here to add Vincent along with Alain Delon, Monty Clift and Gregory Peck. Poor Vincent did not age well though. In terms of models, I always thought Hugo Sauzay was incredibly beautiful.

Warren Beatty

Sorry, icy blue eyes and thin lips aren't beautiful to me. A lot of these older guys benefit from a black and white filter/light which tends to generally make people look better.

Of all time... Tall order. Many goodlooking men here but of all time? That said, Ed fury is new to me. Beautiful.

See...this is such a difficult question to even come close to answering.

I'll post my top two....

and Nathan Owen...and I just thought of six more.

Brad Davis circa 1982.

Absolutely no contest.

Henry Cavill during his peak (Tudor period).

Standard of Classical beauty. Perfect proportions. The Greeks & Romans would have made statutes of him. But peak beauty fades very quickly (esp. in Cavill's case). He's still decently handsome now (he didn't lose his looks completely like Brooke Shields), but there's something aesthetically / visually missing now. He's not breathtaking like he was in his younger days.

*Statues, not statutes

Peter O’toole before the drinking destroyed his looks.

James Garner was gorgeous in his prime. He was always my mom's favorite.

Young Fabio Testi would be in my top ten.

Guy Madison, of course. Guy Madison wins this competition, hands down, every time it is repeated here.

Guy Madison, of course. Guy Madison wins this competition, hands down, every time it is repeated here.

But what about me R150

Ha, I actually had Bomer in mind, R157. Definitely handsome. But, to my taste, he also has a slightly comical look. A high forehead that seems a little bit big for his head proportions and a very peculiar stare that often varies between 'surprised-looking' and slightly psychotic.

He's beautiful, without question. But he has a very odd intense stare that always unsettles me and makes me think he has a BDSM dungeon. 50 Shades is a very silly book, but he would have been perfectly cast as a somewhat psychotic-looking dapper billionaire. He could also easily reprise the role of Patrick Bateman in American Psycho.

[quote] he would have been perfectly cast as a somewhat psychotic-looking dapper billionaire. He could also easily reprise the role of Patrick Bateman in American Psycho.

Have you seen him act? He was a flop in AHS Hotel, where he had a juicy part as a heroin addict turned vampire. He even had actors like Kathy Bates (as his mother) on screen with him. He had no spark. Dull, dull, dull. Finn Wittrock should have been given Bomer's role.

Gael Garcia Bernal

Jesse Williams has something

I have a crush on Jesse WIlliams

antonio banderas in "law of desire"

Tyson Ballou

Russ Theriot

Fawad Khan

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau

If I had to pick one, it would be Warren Beatty in his prime. And as much as I hate to say it, Mitt Romney is so good looking in his late 60s that it is shocking. Pictures of him as a younger man standing with others and his sticks out like a beacon.

But there are so many- I loved Mel until age a bloat got him. Brandon de Wilde was beautiful. Then there are lots of guys like John Gavin- oh and Anthony (Tony) Hamilton has to be the best looking man I ever saw in person. Then there was Joe MacDonald...

Robert Redford was the benchmark for male beauty for decades. For Honorable Mentions, I'll add William Holden and Jon-Erik Hexum. As reprehensible as he's now known to be, Ryan O'Neal was gorgeous in his prime.

Errol Flynn, [R139]

Young Richard Gere made me swoon

Young Richard Gere made me swoon

As a young gay nothing could top Rob Lowe in his prime for me.

[quote]He was a flop in AHS Hotel, where he had a juicy part as a heroin addict turned vampire. He even had actors like Kathy Bates (as his mother) on screen with him.

I'll give you the crazy eyes thing but I think White Collar proved he can act within his element.

As soon as Lady Gaga signed on to the show the entire plot of the series was changed to suit her for that season. IIRC the original plot pitched to the actors was a "civil war" horror show. After she signed on, everyone took a back seat to her and nearly all of the plots and characters revolved around her. While I do think Bomer comes across as dull, after he showed his naked ass in the first episode a few times, his role was basically done & his character was relegated to reacting off of everyone else. There wasn't much for him to do. The same goes for Finn Wittrock who is usually wonderful & Even Cheyenne Jackson. They wasted Naomi Campbell. Angela Bassett should have been playing the Countess rather than having to dumb down her acting in front of Lady Gaga.

Lady Gaga is a talentless whore who ruins everything she touches

Flynn is definitely up there, even with a sunburn.

A timeless Flynn angle where he could have stepped out of any era.

And Flynn cleans up real nice.

Clint Walker

Joe Dallesandro

Always nice to see classic demi-monde pocket beauties like Dallesandro on these lists.

Hard-working, jobbing hustlers & rentboys don't get enough appreciation & respect these days.

[Quote] jobbing hustlers & rentboys don't get enough appreciation & respect these days.

Thanks, bro.

Kim Rossi Stuart is another Italian actor who is mentioned on these threads regularly. Though usually not in top position.

Young Matt Dillon

When all is said and done, however, I agree with OP--Alain Delon in his youth was flawless--a truly beautiful young man without being too pretty. His best movie, if you've never seen it, was IMO "Le Samourai." He'd already lost his youthful bloom but it's his best acting along with other films directed by J.P. Melville. I think I'll watch it again. But in Purple Noon (Plein Soleil in French) from 1960 he is stunningly gorgeous, especially in the over-saturated color of that film.

R158 He's very handsome when his expression is neutral, but I agree that he does sometimes have a case of crazy eyes. Also and interviews he has a tendancy to make over exaggerated faces that are a bit weird. It's kind of funny that he can go from looking angelic to "psycho starey eyes" in a second. I would love to see him using that while playing a villian.

Jeff Gordon of NASCAR fame

Joe Dellesandro

Young Mike Ness was always a favorite of mine.

The young Justin is insanely hot.

R161, Jesse Williams has been cast in the Broadway revival of "Take Me Out". Get your tickets when you can. Those full-frontal shower scenes are glorious.

I second Clint Walker. The man was 6' 6" with a 48 inch chest and a 32 inch waistline. Just think of the proportions... I'd sleep on top of him, I'll have plenty of room.

A young Richard Gere (Officer and a Gentleman) is pretty hard to beat.

Clint Walker was one of Henry Willson's clients. Rock Hudson, Tab Hunter, Chad Everett, Robert Wagner, Nick Adams, Guy Madison, Troy Donahue, Mike Connors, Rory Calhoun, John Saxon, Doug McClure, Dack Rambo and John Derek were others. Willson supposedly had sexual encounters with all of them.

...and I thought I had a great job!

My vote is for Tab Hunter.

Tab Hunter was even good looking when he was an old man in the documentary from a few years ago about him. He was the perfect all-American boy of the '50s. He seemed like a good guy too, basically good-natured and had a wonderful "marriage" with his long-time partner (or did they get married; can't remember.)

"Rick Springfield in his prime, would definitely be on the list."

I never thought so. He always had a long, horsey face with ridiculous pouty lips and that layered, blow dried hair. He wasn't much.

I know he’s pocket sized and crazy but Damn! he was beautiful back in the day.

R193 In his book Tab Hunter said he "drew the line" and never gave in to Henry Willson.

I just watched the Tab documentary on TCM a couple of nights ago. (It was Tab Hunter Night, although the films they showed didn't include "Damn Yankees," which was probably his best.) In the documentary, he mentioned having Henry WIlson's hand on his knee occasionally but said it never went beyond that. Of course, Wilson looked every bit as creepy as I had always imagined him to be.

Sure, Jan ^

I don't believe for a second Tab didn't unzip for Willson.

They all did, that lucky bitch!

Wentworth Miller

Wentworth Miller

Tab Hunter is a Republican douche who spent his entire career happily closeted and only came out because he had shit to sell. Fuck the chicken shit

Too late^

R158

Looks like a prettier Burke Ramsey

Henry Cavill a few years ago.

Grand Duke Mikhail Alexandrovich Romanov. Also very young Nicolas II was fetching.

Cuban Ruben Cortada is absolutely beautiful.

R205 I think he came out because someone else was planning to out him. He said, "I'd rather have people get my story from the horse's mouth rather than some horse's ass."

He could be pretty or macho. Smooth or hairy. Just fab.

Kevin Costner

Flynn was charming and debonair. Very light touch to his affect.

Young Cary Grant was impossibly good looking

Young alex lundqvist was amazing.

Absolute catnip to me back then...

Andrew Scott

Who's that R212? Beautiful eyes.

Gérard Philipe

Sorry, whenever I see Erroll Flynn, I see a sexual pervert, who died at 50 with a 15 year old mistress.

Alain Delon, young Elvis and young Marlon Brando.

A young Chris Carrabba

Dreamy-ass Donald Glover also goes into this category. IMO

Another vote for Bob.

Young Marlon Brandon really had it all. There's a mix of handsomeness and prettiness, masculine and feminine qualities. No wonder he was a voracious bisexual. Didn't Quincy Jones say Brando would fuck anything?

I was thinking Nicholas, too.

R227 was meant to R209. Nicholas aged very fast during the WWI when he was leading the army and Russia was losing the battles. He he is in Tsarskoje Selo in house arrest after the first revolution. I think he was only 48 or 49.

Moi!

There's a "Where are they now?" report on Tab from the 1970s that can be seen on YouTube. In the report, the reporter makes a point of saying that Tab lives with his (male) secretary. I somehow doubt that he came out at long last in the 90s/00s to get ahead of a story. He was hiding in plain sight.

R230 That makes sense. But he definitely wanted to get ahead of anyone else writing about him.

winner of 2017 Survivor Greece Giorgos Aggelopoulos

Johnny Mathis from 1950s/1960s. Those dark enchanting eyes, full lips and strong jawline. He seemed like a genuinely nice, charming young man, and damn could he sing! I feel like his career should have been bigger than it was.

I wonder if Johnny's PLAYGIRL shoot will ever see the light of day.

R82 I had no idea that Rudolph and Tab were a couple?? Thanks for sharing that picture.

Rondo Hatton.

I remember catching reruns of the Ozzie and Harriet show on the Disney Channel back in day. I always found Ricky Nelson so hot. He was quite stunning when he was young.

Dirk Bogarde. Pretty handsome in his heyday.

Dirk Bogarde. Pretty handsome in his heyday.

Since Rick Nelson's been mentioned, his erotic entertainer counterpart is still (alive and) hot.

As a student.

Even though he became a self-hating Christian closet case, Eduardo Verastegui was gorgeous

r245

Who is he? Who was he? Who did he hope to be?

Don't forget me!

AFTER ALL YOUR NOMINATIONS, I'M PREPARED TO MAKE A DECISION. WE'RE GOING WITH A TWO-WAY TIE BETWEEN ALAIN DELON AND A 20-SOMETHING RICHARD GERE.

IT'S DECIDED. NO NEED TO POST FURTHER. THANKS FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION.

Even in Goodbar, Richard Gere had something of the rat about his face. Very Nick Jonas, really.

Speaking of Goodbar, I think Tom Berenger was much more handsome than Gere back then.

He was quite a beauty.

Whenever I have an opportunity to gush about open shirt Viggo, I will gladly take it. 🔥🔥🔥

Tres bien, oui oui.

Pavel/Jan/Whatever

I'm not even into muscles, really, but his frame could really take muscle building and still look long and elegant. He never looked overinflated. Great legs too.

Oh, and there's this too...

Viggo has appeared full-frontal in some movies. This is his earliest exhibit.

Allegedly, Guy Madison had the biggest bush in Hollywood. Only Henry Willson knows for sure.

Before kindergarten in the early 60s, my mother and I watched Jack Lalanne's show every day. She (like all the other housewives) did all of the exercises while I stared at him and wondered why that low-cut shirt didn't open up and let me see his nipples. It drove me crazy. If he had gone bare-chested, I would have rushed through puberty in 60 seconds and shoot a load in my Bozo underwear.

Yes, even then I knew I was gay.

Not the most beautiful man of all time, but he was very cute - Tim Daly from "Wings".

Efram Zimbalist, Jr. He had a tall, lean body I wanted to explore.

Patrick Duffy

Ryan Reynolds

Jason Jones

Jack Lalanne (right) posing for one of those "physique" magazines that were really just wank material for the gays.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

Brooklyn Beckham

It was Geoffrey the Fair, Count of Anjou

Even his enemies went out of his way to mention how good looking he was

I’ve always loved Chris Evans. Beautiful. Has a bit of a Rick Nelson vibe. Think it’s the eyes and lips.

I once heard Henry Willson liked them that way, R258.

Armie Hammer

More Chris Evans

Jon-Erik Hexum was transcendently beautiful.

Jon-Erik Hexum 2

What a tragic loss! Hexum's mother donated as many of her son's organs as she could. It still makes me sad.

Russell Johnson, the Professor on Gilligan's Island. He only appeared shirtless three times on the show. This was the first of them (well, close enough).

I watched the show when I was a kid just to see him. I never saw his nipples, I would have remembered those episodes.

Mark Harmon

More Alex Lundqvist -

R196 His hair and lips are what I like best! Honestly, I don't see any "horse" in that face.

He mentioned in his autobiography that a hot young guy cornered him in a bathroom at an Elton John party once. Rick was drunk and almost went for it...

Milo Ventimiglia has always been a hottie. I don’t know about most beautiful, but definitely I loved him on Heroes and Gilmore Girls.

Well, R268, Geoffrey had nothing on Philip the Fair, whose wife, Queen Joan the Mad, even took his corpse on a prolonged necrophiliac tour of the realms of Spain, sporadically opening the coffin to gaze at the corpse or even touch it.

Hey, there's nothing wrong with keeping a corpse around.

Peter Gallagher. Man, he was gorgeous. He was just in that Bad Moms Christmas movie and I was surprised by how well he's held up, too.

Russell Todd always has a bit of a Peter Gallagher vibe. He's aged well, too, but in his youth...WOAH!

Marty Feldman - That Face - those eyes! He just sends me.

Here is another Russell Johnson for you. I also wanted to see his bare chest on Gilligan's Island when I was a kid.

When I didn't go to school when I was sick, I looked forward to seeing Burt Convy on Tattletales. I imagined myself running my fingers through the thick bush I thought he had. I always felt better by noontime.

Keanu has lasting appeal, but when young was a true beauty.

What about me!?

I was a certain kind of Cro-mag beauty.

I would not consider Russell Johnson one of the most beautiful men, mostly above average. We're talking about 10's here.

Paul Rudd has always been beautiful. Still looks amazing.

Mark Frechette.

Beauty in is in the eye of the beholder, R291.

How do you define a 10?

I have always had a crush on the young Oscar Werner

Young Udo Kier takes my breath away.

My current pick for most beautiful man is Matt Harnacke. He can ride me anytime!

R283 I saw Peter Gallagher in a drugstore once in NYC. It was around 1995. He was shorter than I expected, but gorgeous. He was buying sunscreen, lol.

Marc-André Grondin from the movie "C.R.A.Z.Y."

Another vote for Matt Lattanzi. I think it was George Cukor who called him "the most beautiful boy in the world" (?)

So is Matt Lattanzi a gay? He was married to lesbionic Olivia.

If ONJ is a lesbian why does she keep a man around - a husband no less, in the last decade or so? It's not like she's been "relevant" since the 1980s.

R301 No, he's straight.

John Isner

Paul Anka, with Syrian and Lebanese roots. Every man I ever met from that region is gorgeous. I dreamed about Anka's hairy chest, where it led to, etc. Then he recorded "You're Having My Baby". I knew our imaginary relationship would never be consummated.

Here are Robert Conrad and Don Stroud coming downstairs. They're wearing gloves. Hmm.

Here is Don Stroud playing chess. It's too bad Playgirl didn't turn its camera toward Robert Conrad. It's irresponsible.

Wow, nice find, R245.

Eduardo Verástegui was very handsome in his younger days indeed. (And still quite decent now)

R246, his early bio reads like a Federico García Lorca novel: "Born and raised in Xicotencatl, Tamaulipas, a tiny village in Northern Mexico, Verástegui was the son of a sugar cane farmer..."

R281, either Philip I of Castile, Archduke of the House of Habsburg (a.k.a. Philip ‘the Fair’ or ‘the Handsome’) wasn’t as beautiful as they said - or his court painters were amateurs with cataracts for eyes.

Because he looks rather mediocre in his painted portraits. He's definitely better-looking than many of the following Habsburgs (I guess it depends on the point of reference), but that's still damning with faint praise. Because many of the Habsburgs were incredibly ugly.

And his wife, Queen Joanna (Juana) ‘the Mad’ of Castile, probably refused to part with his coffin - not because he was that beautiful in life, but because she was possibly [italic]clinically insane[/italic], as her moniker implied.

Don Knotts

The bassist from Blur, Alex James, used to be so beautiful.

Assuming that "of all time" means the last three decades I nominate Javier Gomez, a telenovela actor. I love the silver haired older guys who are clean shaven.

311, I always had a thing for Damon Albarn.

You can tell there is a generational gap among us. I am enjoying this thread.

Here is Don Adams, star of the comedy series "Get Smart" in the mid-60s. I would sit in my Superman jammies on Saturday nights watching, given the one bottle of Coke I was allowed to have for the week. I wanted to see his chest and his basket. I thought they would be very hairy. Even then, I had a preference for it.

and co-star Barbara Felton was a bombshell, at least in my eyes at the time.

Holy shit, is that pic at r314 among his good ones? Those beady eyes...

Paul walker took my breath away.

Joey Logano

Yep him too R313. Especially in the video for the Universal.

R311, R313, Damian Albarn was ok, but like most Brits he always looked like he needed a thorough wash.

*Damon, that is

R314, I'm an early Millennial and I liked watching him too as a kid. He seemed appealing, despite not being classically beautiful.

[quote] on Saturday nights watching, given the one bottle of Coke I was allowed to have for the week

One Coke for the [italic]week[/italic]? Was this normal in the mid-60s? I thought Coke was a regular treat for kids back in the day. (Before everyone started getting fat & and ringing the alarm.)

Aidan Turner

Jeffrey Hunter

I have a soft spot for tragic beauties: Case study #1: Albert Delègue, top model when there were actual top models, back in the 90s.

Died of AIDS, aged 31

Case study #2: Simon de la brosse, actor. He was beautiful in a haunted kind of way. Died of suicide at age 33.

Pretty Douglas Booth

Harry Styles, of course.

Case study #3: Filip Nikolic. Singer, actor. Died of an overdose at age 35.

Ricky Nelson

Kurt Russell

What the heck is going on?

I give up. I wanted to post one photo, not an article.

R324 You're french? Or really into french guys?

Yep, I'm French. And also really into these guys who also happened to be French.

Michael Douglas

R334 Merci de m'avoir fait decouvrir ces trois gars que je ne connaissais pas, compatriote. ^^

Well, then, here's another tragic French beauty, Patrick Dewaere:

Douglas Booth's jaw looks like the bottom half of a triangle.

There are some swoon-worthy selections in this thread. I'm currently crushing on Mr. Cooper.

[quote]Douglas Booth's jaw looks like the bottom half of a triangle.

Yes, but he's still pretty. I first saw him in the TV mini series "And Then There Were None". I'm sure he plays for our team.

Hasn't Booth explicitly said he's not gay? Younger guys don't tend to speak on it if they're family. Shawn Mendes and that recent mess of an article is actually one of the exceptions to the rule.

It amuses me that his girlfriend looks like Cole Escola.

He's lying. He probably thinks being openly gay will damage his career. I can't see him as a romantic lead or an action hero anyways.

Didn't Kevin Spacey insist he was straight years ago?

Since when does Kevin Spacey count as a "younger guy"? He's of an entirely different generation.

Yes, yes. It's a post gay world. Everyone is open and there is no discrimination. Closeted gay actors have been around since movie making began and they're still around today.

I'll bet there are plenty of gay actors who are handsome and look and act straight who will not come out because they're worried it will limit their careers.

r345

No. Every handsome actor who's seen with a women is straight.

Louis Garrel and Michael Pitt in The Dreamers

On the subject of Ricky Nelson, I have a girlfriend who used to send nudes back and forth with one of his sons. Not the twins, one of his two younger boys. She showed me some of his hard cock pics. Very nice.

I was only allowed one Coke per week as well, R321. My brother-in-law was not so lucky. He had five brothers and sisters and they all received a juice glass of Coke on Friday nights, and that was all for the week.

We went to a fast food restaurant maybe once a month. My parents saved so we could have a two week vacation every year, and the neighborhood kids would be jealous and mean when that time came around.

There were only two kids who could be considered fat in my grade school class. That has paid off in dividends as we grew older. None of us has had a serious illness in 40 years.

R345-Like Alec Baldwin. He USED to be handsome anyway.

Kim Basinger was a beard? Did they use a turkey baster to conceive their daughter? This is the first time I'm hearing this.

Didn't Alec offer himself to men when he worked at Studio 54?

I suppose he could be bisexual but I seriously doubt he is gay. But then again you have the example of Miss Travolta.

[quote] I'm sure he plays for our team.

Booth is most likely not gay - just British.

Nah, Booth is more pretty than handsome. He's a friend of Dorothy.

He's not the most beautiful man of all time but I've always had a thing for Gillen when he was on his late twenties.

Jensen Ackles

I googled "most handsome actor" and there was a photograph of Benedict Cumberbatch. Oh my sides.

Back in the day I was major fan of the Jim Palmer Jockey ads.

This guy, from the Zino by Davidoff ads from the 1990s. I used to have a t-shirt with this pic on it. I've always wondered what his name was...

I’ve fallen down a Wikipedia wormhole thanks to R268

[quote]Well, then, here's another tragic French beauty, Patrick Dewaere:

pppfftt....he died young while he still had his looks.

you want to see tragic......look at me now

I thought Johnathon Schaech was beautiful when he first started. Look at those luscious lips.

^^ That's the third time today that my posts are double-posting.

R258

You're making that up.

R345 I think they’re serving your favorite pudding today! You can have some AFTER your bone density testing.

Perry King is bisexual. In ca. 1978 he was VERY good looking.

[quote]R345 I think they’re serving your favorite pudding today! You can have some AFTER your bone density testing.

If you think Sean Connery was beautiful, you need to have your eyes tested.

R366, JFK Jr. was already posted at R20. Senility is a terrible thing.

No, R366. There are no younger closeted actors who deliberately lie when asked about their private lives. They don't have female friends who pretend to be their girlfriends. That was all back in the Dark Ages. We're so enlightened now.

Perry King is bisexual? So there IS a God?

R367 I happen to know Perry pretty well. He's a complicated guy from a fascinating family with a lot of wives and mistresses under his belt... but one thing he is NOT is bisexual.

Well, that's a shame. He's a beautiful man.

More JFK Jr. and his nipples

Cory Monteith

[quote]JFK Jr. was already posted at [R20].

And at r376 (or whatever number this attains).

Too bad Sarah Jessica Parker didn't keep this hairstyle during Sex and the City. Very sophisticated.

Did JFK Jr. have a nose job? Looks like it. Hot either way.

Oooh. Steamy.

Look, r369.

I wouldn't have been able to be around JFK Jr. I wouldn't have been able to keep my hands off him.

Josh Holloway

Tom Welling

JFK Jr was even more beautiful in person. He once sat behind me at Da Silvano, a now closed great Italian place in the Village on 6th Ave just north of Houston. My female lunch date said the guy behind me could give JFK Jr a run for his money in the looks department. The guy John was with overheard and began to laugh. John turned around to look at our table and smiled. Maybe the best looking man I've ever seen. When he left he smiled at us again, said have a nice day and walked out. He was close to 6'2 and was wearing a tan suit that was a bit wrinkled.

[quote]Did JFK Jr. have a nose job? Looks like it.

I was wondering the same thing. He became more handsome with age.

Keanu Reeves, when he was young, was just fabulous. Best looking thing in 10 states.

Timothee Chalamet. The most beautiful face I've ever seen.

Of all time? It’s Alain Delon.

In the last 20 years, Timothee Chalamet

Maxwell Caulfield

Dirk Benedict

Pierce Brosnan

[quote] JFK Jr was even more beautiful in person.

Kennedy Jr had his father's misaligned eyes (Strabismus): when the eyes (pupils) look in slightly different directions. In Kennedy's case, outward directions / away from each other. The son didn't have it as bad as the dad, but still.

That was the REAL Kennedy curse.

You can notice it a bit here:

Russell Crowe also has Strabismus.

People often instinctively notice that something doesn't look quite right, but can't place their finger on it - because it's not immediately apparent. Crowe was still decently handsome of course.

Who could have anticipated Russell Crowe's ending up in a thread entitled "Who is the most beautiful man of all time?"

My current favorite is Mark Grossman, who plays the fourth Adam Newman on Y&R. I want to lick every part of his body. He and Greg Rikaart (Kevin)—I came back for Greg—would make such a lovely S&M couple.

r393

Pairing those two together made me think of how neither would be on a "Great Beauty" thread if it weren't for their status as royalty (or pseudo royalty in the man's case). Neither would have made a splash as a model or movie star pinup.

Teddy Pendergrass

Mr. River Phoenix.

Mr. River Phoenix.

Ryan Phillippe

I was looking at an online list of the most handsome celebrities. They mentioned Robert Downey Jr, Jon Bon Jovi and Christian Bale. All of these guys look fine but they certainly are not exceptionally handsome.

R392. You are well informed from a medical standpoint but I think having your head shot off or being broken in half in a plane crash might considered to be somewhat worse than having your eyes point in slightly different directions.

Gabriele Detti from Italy

Gabriele Detti from Italy

R404 I watched his swimming the other day and thought wow! Good looking guy.

[quote]If you think Sean Connery was beautiful, you need to have your eyes tested.

I agree. Though I’m not sure what this has to do with me.

ANYWAY...I'm adding Hemsworth to my list. And I HATE blonde dudes.

R406 Okay, Chris Hemsworth has a great body, but I never found his face to be anything special. However, he has such an amazing presence and personality. I’ve seen a handful of interviews he has given and the guy has charisma for days. It definitely makes him more attractive! Confidence always adds to the appeal factor.

Sean Connery in his prime was, indeed, beautiful.

Perry King IS bisexual.

John Stamos

I never thought John Kennedy was that handsome in pictures but when I saw him on film,, I knew why people swooned. I had never thought his Dad wasvtgat goodlooking,nor his mom.

R411, According to the new biography on him, JFK, Jr. was into facials from an early age and none of his friends ever saw him with a blemish or pimple.

John John should have been called DUMB DUMB. It took him at least three tries before he passed his bar exam.

R412, his mother probably set him up with a dermatologist when he hit puberty, as all good mothers do.

Austin Grabish, the CBC reporter who is covering the two murderous teenagers in Canada

He needs to hang up that haircut. He's not a teenager.

Watch his broadcasts so he can buy more hair gel.

Mark Frechette

418 replies, and not a single mention of DL's Prettiest Football Player, Jimmy Garappolo?

Marc Almond

Chasteen

Wow! That Mark Frechette was gorgeous. I had to Google him . Why haven’t I ever heard of him before ? Thanks .

Your former DL fave.

r422 Mark Frechette was jailed for a bank robbery. He died in jail.

Depp when he was young.

Joe Dellasandro owns this thread.

You're welcome, R422. Here's the admittedly weird Frechette (who could've benefitted from some cosmetic dental work) on the Dick Cavett Show.

Little Joe never once gave it away

Everybody had to pay and pay

A hustle here and a hustle there

New York City is the place where they said:

Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

I said hey Joe, take a walk on the wild side

Noah Mills. Hot af!

Gregory Peck around 1948.

R420, Is that Timmy?

I can't say "for all time" but right now I think Douglas Booth, the British actor is just lovely. he's in his late 20's.

Errol Flynn in his prime.

And Shemar Moore in his prime.

A long DL fave - Topher Grace

How long is he, r434?

Northern Civil War general Joshua Chamberlain, at least according to my great-great grandmother.

Young Orlando Bloom

R434 Topher wasn't even the best looking on That 70s Show.

Topher Grace looks like every other Upper Middle Class kid from Connecticut.

r438 Topher was clearly the best looking of the bunch.

R440, Tell that to Mila Kunis and her 14 year old vagina.

We were discussing most beautiful men, r441.

R442, I was referring to a man, Ashton Kutcher in response to the statement that Topher Grace was the best looking man on That 70's Show.

https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-paul-walker-death-friend-driving-20131204-story.html

Paul Walker. too bad about the burning up in the car.

The two leads of "Alias Smith and Jones." Pete Duel was a train wreck, but so gorgeous; that smile, those brown eyes, those dimples. And Ben Murphy was pretty damn fine to look at, too.

r443 Topher > Ashton. It didn't even register that you were typing as Jackie Burkhart (or Mila Kunis).

It's really more who is the most beautiful famous man of all time.

Taste is subjective, of course.

My initial off the cuff vote goes to Paul Newman & probably Mel Gibson in their prime.

They were so beautiful.

You'd marry Paul, of course, but fuck Mel.

"Fuck Mel" is right. Fuck Mel with a series of larger and larger rusty aluminum toilet brushes.

You fuck Mel for his beauty. You are not in his bed sheets to be best friends or talk philosophy.

Paul Walker.

Paul Walker.

Denek.

Rutger Hauer

Mel stopped being beautiful to me around the time Tequila Sunrise came out. That's when I started hearing he was a homophobe. That's 1988. I haven't had any desire to fuck him since then, and I think that's the last of his movies I saw.

John Wilkes Booth was sexy as hell and quite a stud, according to various books.

R455, Booth, 5 feet 8 inches; 160 pounds; compact build; hair jet black, inclined to curl, medium length, parted behind; eyes black, and heavy dark eye-brows; wears a large seal ring on little finger; when talking inclines his head forward; looks down.

Young Brad Pitt. Tied with Logan Marshall Green.

Randolph Mantooth ca. 1978.

I think James Norton is possibly the most handsome man in entertainment today.

Antonio Banderas

Paul Newman

Jesse Metcalfe

Bill Pullman

Jason Bell.

Sean Bean. When he was young. Before alcoholism took over. Was so dreamy.

Sean Bean. When he was young. Before alcoholism took over. Was so dreamy.

Antonio Sabato Sr

Jay North (when young)

Sean Connery was balding from an early age. He's wearing a rug in all those Bond films

Jules Horn

I brake for Jean Marais.

How could I forget Louis Jourdan!!!!!! The handsomest man, on a par with Alain Delon!!!

Ralf Moeller = 6'6" blond hair, blue eyed bodybuilder from Germany (athletic build but not to bulky like the bodybuilders of today).

His looks peaked in the late 1980s/early 90s.

Delon was beautiful, but I think William Levy in his prime takes the title.

Vinny Barbarino

Alain Delon still owns this thread. I’ll always look back fondly on blowing him and finishing him off with a hand job in that video booth at the now defunct Exxpressions in NYC around 10 years ago,

Gorgeous, beautiful Brad Goreski.

Even Kate seemed smitten with Alain Delon.

R409

Perry King looks it.

R478

Was this before or after Hepburn met Bettie Page ?

Robert Wagner

Warren Beatty

Hardly, r481.

Adam West was a great beauty when he was young.

Why didn't you post a pic of him when he was young?

Andy Cohen

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

Spencer Tracy.

Brandon Routh. He's absolutely perfect.

[Quote] I’ll always look back fondly on blowing him and finishing him off with a hand job in that video booth at the now defunct Exxpressions in NYC around 10 years ago,

That's like fondly remembering eating out Betty White in the 00s.

Uhhhh, not quite, R490. He wasn’t THAT old and was still in relatively good shape. Face was still handsome.

I guess.

There is no THE most beautiful, but one beauty I’ll throw into the mix is donkey-dicked model Christopher Fawcett.

Any pics of said donkey dick?

George Peppard in Breakfast at Tiffany.

Justin Hartley any day, any way. He's divorcing his wife, which gives me an opening to get that hole or pole.

From what I see here, the four most common determining factors for "most beautiful man" seem to be:

1. He's young.

2. He has abundant blond or highlighted hair, or else very dark hair.

3. Hard body.

4. Most likely white.

What a surprising set of qualifying criteria!

Beauty is a product of culture. This country has a majority of white people. More of you count Latinos who are often white skinned. Therefore "white" being in the criteria is not all that surprising.

If you please people in China about the most beautiful woman in their eyes, they might come up with somebody who looks Chinese.

R497 so what's your point?

Julian Morris

Depending on what day you ask me, Robert Redford, Paul Newman, Marlon Brando, all in their youth prime. Strictly going on Marlon on the outside. Inside person was quite unattractive.

R497 so post men you think are beautiful! I don't have to play these guessing games to try to figure out what you want. I post what I like and you post what you like. No one has to be shamed for liking the adult men they like. Shaming won't change it deep down anyway.

Go ahead post Idris Elba or Jpop Kpop or WHOEVER you think is hot. No one is stopping you! Who is stopping you? Who? In fact it's welcomed but you won't post, will you? Nope! All talk by a Russian Troll to sow racial discord when most people are busy living their lives happily and don't need to tell other people what to like and what not to like.

All the posts from race baiters are Russian trolls. They think we're stupid fall for their propaganda when in reality we have interracial relationships and sex all the time. Just ignore the trolls guys.

Oh, woe is me, R497! There be WHITE people!!

Has no one mentioned me? And yet you've all been thinking of me this week.

Harry Styles in about 2014

Harry Styles. He looks like Mary Renault's The Persian Boy here.

Carlos. Such a beautiful man. And those eyes. . . .

Jeez, Harry is giving that host the eye.

Alain Delon both beautiful and elegant

Tom Everett Scott

Balthazar Getty

Tom Holland

I dunno about all time, but prime Robert Sean Leonard makes me weak.

Tom Selleck was absolute stunner in youth. Still not bad looking as an old man. He's bi too. A friend of mine fucked him in Hawaii.

K.

Thayago Alves

Don't forget moi.

Who is that in R492?

Delon.

Since 2018....

Thanks R518

Someone modern and still alive.

Diego Boneta of Scream Queens and that horrible Terminator Dark Fate.

Don't you just melt looking at him?

R513, Don Ho?

Diego is TV star gorgeous which is different than Movie Star gorgeous. Neither one is better, just different.

I like rough trade gorgeous, myself.

Matthew Daddario is a contender

Callum Blue

Mahesh Babu
