Hall of Fame: Bad Boys
Oh the bad boy. We love him, hate him and somehow he entices us to love him again. Typically, we find our heart willing to offer a second or third chance after he turns on that smoldering gaze, or in many cases for me, he retorts with a snarky quip during a heated argument that has a touch of flirtation under the surface. Once that “I know I’m hot” grin spreads across his face, I’m done.
These three bad boy Hall of Fame-ers have been taunting me for the past couple of years. Continue on if you dare, and prepare to be hooked yourself.
1. Tim Riggins
Let me just get this out in the open: greasy hair is gross. Tim Riggins, even when he’s not sporting is #33 jersey on the Dillon Panther football field, always…I MEAN ALWAYS has greasy hair. Ironically, I choose to overlook his aversion to shampoo and often find myself swooning any time he is featured on Friday Night Lights. He’s just so pretty.
2. Matthew Bomer
Let me just get this out in the open: I understand that it is rumored that darling Matthew does not play for my team. With that said, GOOD LORD HE’S HOT! I encourage you to go and set your DVR for White Collar right now. Whether he’s in orange jailhouse coveralls or his signature three-piece suit and fedora, I would invite him to con me anytime.
3. Ian Somerhalder
Let me just get this out in the open: Yes. I watch Vampire Diaries and I LOVE IT. Stop judging. Damon Salvatore speaks my love language: sarcasm. And for some reason, I get a kick out of him when he’s sucking the life out of some chick, or showing tiny signs of vulnerability before breaking a neck. Hands down, he has the best one-liners on television since Arrested Development and the arrival of Modern Family. And if you’re wondering where you’ve seen those gorgeous eyes before, it’s probably because he played Boone on Lost.
What do you guys think? Who else is a hot bad boy? What are some other Hall of Fame ideas for the future? As always, feel free to peruse my entire collection on my Facebook page or read my entries HERE, HERE and HERE.
I just want to go ahead and say that I have a Christmas card from Matt Bomer’s family on my refrigerator as we speak. Yes I know it is June…. but it is Matt Bomer! On my refrigerator!
I completely agree with all 3 men. Matt is so yummy. I love White Collar. Such a great show. On another note I hope you have as much fun tomorrow night watching NKOTBSB as I will.
Also, did you know that Matt Bomer is from Spring, TX? He needs to come back home and just drive down 1960 so I could possibly have a chance to run into him. I’m just sayin…..
Is #1 the guy who played Gambit in Wolverine?
Let me just get this out in the open: LOVE it. Always agree with your list! Tim comes back tonight on FNL, can’t wait!! Love White Collar and Matt, hope the rumors aren’t true, jealous Kelly! And Ian, love him and Damon too
No judgement here, I think you have great taste!
Ummm, I 100000% agree with your bad boy choices. I tuned in every Thursday to the CW for the lastest installment of VD. Ian makes my hear skip a beat. The sarcasm… yes! The eyes… I want to stare into them. He’s just hott!
And Neil Caffrey, I just want to make out with him. I don’t miss an episode ot WHite Collar. DVR is set… however, it has saddened my heart that you mentioned he might play for the other team. I’m going to pretend that he does not and should I end up divorced (sads and hoping that never happens) in my mind I’m pretending he will still be there, with a fedora on, to help me move forward in life.
I must comment again on luscious Ian! I first fell in love with him as the ill-fated Boone on Lost. I al.most gave up on the show when his part was finished! But for the love of the other smoldering boys on the show, I persevered!
Thank goodness for ‘Vampire Diaries”! Of course, my loyalty carried over there too…
Great list, as always!! I could say it will be one heck of a list when it’s finished, but I don’t reckon a list like this could ever be complete! Keep it up!!
Well done Lincee. I love all three. But especially Ian. Gotta love the southern boys!
LOVE the list. They are all rediculously HOT! And can I just say that Damon Salvatore could pretty much have whatever he wanted…no compelling necessary
A snarky bad boy always gets me!
My suggestion for an addition to the list is Alexander Skarsgard. Eric Northman is another man that could jump in my bed anytime and I wouldn’t complain!!!
Ian is amazing.I seriously cannot get enough of him. For bad boys, I might add Prince Harry. Red hair and rosy cheeks get me every time!
Maybe you could do a list strictly of musicians or something. That could get incredibly long!
Speaking of LOST, what about Josh Holloway, who played conman Sawyer on the show. The hair, the beard, the accent ::swoon::
I love your picks, but one is missing. The love of my life: Ed Westwick is the hottest bad boy there is. Hands down!
I was JUST going to wax poetic about Sawyer, but I see Brittany beat me to it. All he would have to do is call me “freckles” and it would be all over between the hubs and me. Sorry darling.
Also, I’d like to go old school and mention Johnny Castle (Patrick Swayze), from Dirty Dancing. I’d carry a watermelon for him any day.
OK, so Tim Riggins is HOT, Hot, Hot!!! He has the bad boy, could break my heart and then he speaks so softly and from the heart sometimes.
I loved Ian on LOST! I totally agree with above about Sawyer. I think you have someone else from LOST on a previous post??
Just what I needed to make it through a boring Friday at work! Thanks!!
best. group. ever.!
I’d tackle Tim Riggins if I saw him in public and Damon Salvatore too!
Oh Neil Caffery……how do I love thee!!!!!
Excellent list
I have to put in a nomination for Christian Bale. My love affair with him started at an early age, when he was Jack Kelley (Newsies), but was cemented with Batman (although the voice he used gives me the creeps).
And, proving that you’re never too old to be sexy if there is an accent involved…Sean Connery.
Ian for sure for me! (Though I read he’s with Nina now…sooooo jealous!!)
)
Happy Weekend! ~
Brittany and Kim, yes! Though Boone is still my favorite by far, I loved Sawyer too. With his sarcastic sense of humor and nicknames on the show!
Along with his southern boy charm when he smiled!! Must say, there were some hot-ties (or at least hot bodies) on that show!!
Great list Lincee!!! Have to agree with your choices..so much so that we’d better never hit a club together or we might come to blows over trying to go for the same boy! lol
Yes unfortunately Matt Bomer does play for the other team…not a rumor..still doesn’t make him any less divine!
And in am in total agreement about Sawyer phwoarrr and LOL at JennyToo over leaving the hub for “freckles” lol lol
Am an out and proud VDer….even my 71 old mother bought the S1 DVD lol think my taste in bad boys is genetic…so there’s NO hope for me lol
Lincee, I’m so glad that you call Taylor Kitsch as Tim Riggins. No matter what he does, he will always be Tim Riggins. As far as bad boys go, I’d like to submit a vintage bad boy: Luke Perry circa 1992.
Now, since it is June, and hot outside… may I suggest that you do a Hall of Fame: Boys of Summer (baseball players) edition. I don’t know if you like baseball or not, but there are some dang good looking men who play that sport. I want to give God a slow clap for creating some of these human beings… Joe Mauer, Evan Longoria, David Wright, CJ Wilson…. the list is nearly endless.
YES!! Josh Holloway is sooo stinkin’ hot! Amen!
No list of bad boys is complete without Jensen Ackles, who plays Dean Winchester on Supernatural. AND he’s from Texas. Like Ian, he’s got the sarcasm. But he’d kill Ian, because he kills the undead.
Also? @Stacey–Newsies 4eva!
Holy cow. Great picks! All 3 of these guys are amazing… Love the bad boys.
Yes yes and yes on Matt Bomer!! I don’t care if he’s gay, straight, bi, alien, whatever…the man is gorgeous! Those eyes…Mmm! White Collar is one of my favorite shows and he’s like 88.6% of the reason!
I don’t watch much t.v. or go to movies, so I’ve never seen these three men before, but, by gosh, they are all hot. I’ve got to admit, though, that if I had to pick one, I was going to choose the one who I thought, at first glance, was named Matthew BoNer. Just seemed like the right thing to do.
Also, Henry Ian Cusick is very attractive!!
I know I am going to show my age here, but Ian looks like the doppleganger of Rob Lowe. Like, if you take away the 20 yr. age gap they could be twins! Okay, definitely Patrick Swayze back in the day.
There cannot be a bad boy list without a mention of Depp. Just sayin… Your three are not too shabby though! (from someone old enough to be their mother, no doubt!
Great list Lincee! But we’re forgetting the hottest vampire of them all – Vampire Eric!!
Two of my best friends went to Klein High School with Matt Bomer and they were in drama with him and used to stalk him
I saw him perform in “Oliver!” as Bill Sikes back in the day (94, I think). We’ve been following his career ever since and we love that he’s doing so well. He is definitely a super hottie!
Ian Somerhalder. Yes. Yes. Yes. Love.
Mmmm…you and I are SO on the same page. I’m drooling over having all 3 of these boys on the same page. Good job, Lincee!!
They’re nice, but I’m keeping my wallpaper set to Mike Rowe and his muddy feet. Just saying.
I always agree with your wise words.
And, my oh my, I would LOVE to have me some Ian.
Two words….Donnie Walberg…:)
Love the list–although I haven’t seen White Collar–crap another show for me to catch up on- thank goodness for netflix.
Totally agree on the one-liners for Damon- they are usually unexpected and very funny.
Matt Bomer has been on my list for some time. You know, the celebrity list from “Friends” where I get a free pass to cheat in the unlikely event that I’d ever personally run into Matt. Fingers crossed!!
I remember Ian Somerhalder from the WB show “Young Americans” with Kate Bosworth. He’s so much hotter now.
I vote for picture # 1!!!!!! They should definitely win!!!!
I vote for Bryan – cutie #2!!
