Pajiba

I’ve also excluded a few of the more popular ones who are in actual contention for the real Pajiba 10

That loud whooshing sound you hear is the thankful sigh of the FASSBENDER! contingent.

I'm going to be Googling Raoul Bova all day.

Ooooooo. I'd add Djimon Honsou. I love him so.

well HELLOOOOO Raoul! Damn, that is one hot man.

Marion Cotillard is the one I realized I had left off my ladies list immediately after posting. She is just absolutely gorgeous and classy.

Raoul Bova is indeed a find. I found photos of him where he looks less like Caliban consumating his marriage to a rock. Stubbly photos that prove DR right about the whole "sexier with shadow" thing. They also prove that smoking looks cool and we all know it.

This is where Figgy chimes in with the names of all those hot soccer players she knows about.

It seems I am a particularly salacious jezebel today.

There are also many hot Asian actors like Byung-hun Lee, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Tony Leung, and many more. So very hot.

Should it come up, I am also ready to a contribute to the Time Machine edition of these lists -

Cary Grant 1941
Gregory Peck 1953
William Powell (SHUT UP!) 1934
Sam Elliott 1980
Tom Selleck 1988

Vincent Cassel looks like he would enjoy your pain and NOT in the way that some people find fun.

Stubbly photos that prove DR right about the whole "sexier with shadow" thing. They also prove that smoking looks cool and we all know it.

Well, golly, I better not turn on my camera. I don't wanna cause any disturbances. Jeepers.

Aaaaaand just remember--Dustin didn't pick these names out of his head. I'd hate for one of these things to turn into a big argument, I'm glad it's never happened before.

I have no idea who Raoul Bova is or what he does but HOT. DAMN.

I'll be in that proverbial place of which we no longer speak round these parts.

Wello there, Signor Bova!

While I appreciate hotness in all its forms, I am slightly irked that there is a 2:3 ratio of men to women in this list. Come on now Dustin, this was the time to let your homosexual alter ego come out to play!

Here's a Nadal pic for you. Also Megan Fox if you're interested.

Long hair Olga? Me like!

Freida Pinto. sigh. India's very own Lea Michele.

And Padma. India's most famous and only fame whore?

And where them Orientals at? Zhao Wei!

I did my best to order them according to my own suburban hipster white boy sensibilities.

Oh, my bad.

Oded Fehr

uhhh...louis garrel, seung won cha, and woo sung jung. there's my triple play.

Milla Jovovich is awesome. But how come you didn't include Eva Green?

Fu'ad Ait Attou. Who, coincidentally, takes like 3 of my Freebie 5 spots.

While we're on the topic of lust objects, I keep looking at photos of Sendhil Ramamurthy and exclaiming, "Jesus Chr*st".

When I was an ESL teacher, I watched Roman Holiday withe my (adult) students and every so often, I would lose my composure and they would here me say, "Oh my god!".

Oooh, Sendhil Ramamurthy. He's got a smile that would make rainbows happen in the sky.

And of course, Naveen Andrews. I miss Sayid.

So you think Kaka is the shit?

Hahahahaha!

I'll show myself out.

Excellent call on Tony Leung. That man is a slice of heaven.

Seriously? I am the only one who thinks Eva Green should be thee? I mean have you seen here naked? She is beyond sexy. Is it because she is French?

Minto - I think Eva Green is in the running for this year's 10, which is why she's not included here.

Donut Plains - Thank you for bringing up CB's Hot Guy Friday. I loooooove Daniel Henney. He definitely should have made the list.

Raoul Bova, where have you been all my life???

Mia Maestro

@jM: Haaz Sleiman was not only delicious eye candy on that show, his character was also funny and cool as shit. I was so bummed when he didn't return for Season 2.

And thank you, Joker, for mentioning Burundi, because now I have Eddie Izzard's voice telling the President of Burundi in French that he likes his coffee like he likes his women: with a spoon in them.

Ken Watanabe!!! That is all.

DAMN IT!

Finish this sentence:

Raoul Bova likes his women like he likes his rocks, ________ .

a. Dumb as
b. Hard
c. Breakable
d. Wet
e. Dirty
f. By the sea
g. Eroded
h. Tumbled

Is it just me, or are these people pretty white? Even the non-whites are on the paler side. hmmm

sorry but i can't get past that raoul bova. delicious!

(okay, i'm about to admit that javier does NOTHING for me. never has.)

Lemme fix this list.

Numbers 1-10: Mads">http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0586568/>Mads Mikkelsen

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0586568/

Marion Cottilard. In my 10 and damn close to the top.

googergieger -

I understand the complaints about a lack of variety, but I think we are suffering more from a lack of awareness than a deliberately exclusionary approach. I can't speak for everyone, but I check every single name I don't recognize; I am ready willing and able to objectify any and all men proferred.

As a gesture of support, I will now mentally undress Idris Elba, Daniel Henney and Sendhil Ramamurthy and make them fight for the right to loosen my stays and then gently lower me onto the divan on my sleeping porch as the wisteria gently sways in the soft summer breeze and blocks his ministrations from the prying eyes of my neighbours.

These are not made up of your votes, but I assure that all ten were at least nominated this year.

So did you vote?

OH MY JIM-JAM-GOD where has Lea Sedeaux been all my life??? What a cutie.

'Course that shot of Mila in her little white panties was quite pajibonering.

Mmm...I fear I've said too much already. AWAY!

everyone is so delicious! I'm savoring too much to even make an argument against any of them.

all ten were at least nominated this year.
===
I have Freida Pinto covered.

This year, last year, next year, every year, until she's 97.

Umm...Reynaldo Gianecchini? Good Holy Lord. I'm almost sad I know there's someone this beautiful in the world. Well, mostly sad that I will never have him. Do yourselves a favor and google that shit, people.

YES, budiwag. Doesn't he seem kind of...impossible? Like he's not real. He can't be. It's not FAIR.

C'mon...seriously no East Asians...

As people have pointed out before Takeshi Kaneshiro can give any man a run for his money. C'mon people...even if you're lazy you can just run through the cast of Red Cliff.

My votes:

Hong Kong Cinema: Takeshi Kaneshiro (yes I consider her Hong Kong), Tony Leung (the man is a freakin East Asian Clarke Gable), Chang Chen, Faye Wong,

South Korea: Lee Byung Hun, Won Bin, Kim Hyun Joong(the guy can't act his way out of a paper bag, but DAMNNNNN), Kim Tae Hee, Song Hye Kyo

Japan: Matsuyama Kenichi, Mukai Osamu, Watanabe Ken, Rinko Kikuchi, Shibasaki Kou,

It's too bad Pajiba didn't post this video of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOuI-Ztaxls of Milla Jovovich. It would have been fun to see the reaction of people before and after they do the math

Ho. Lee. Crap, Minto. I'm just gonna go wait for Chris Hanson over...here...

Ren I like you. Thank you for bringing Won Bin to my attention.

I'll be in that place where I do that thing.

It's annoying how apparently "international" really just means European (and sometimes India) in the minds of this writer, but even worse, about half in the list are already pretty well-known celebrities in America.

Way to be enlightening.

Guillame Canet deserves to be worthy of note. Very good looking, talented actor(he was excellent with Marion Cotillard in Jeux d'Enfants and director (Tell No One).

@Cam,

Times are changing so that Asian celebrities don't need to be recognized by the West in order to be validated. Some of these Asian pop groups have hundreds of millions of truly dedicated fans, yet the average American has no clue who they are.

Some K-pop groups recently held concerts in France that generated a remarkable turnout of non-Asian fans (disproving the racist idea that while all races can idolize whites, whites are too narrow-minded to idolize non-whites). Considering that Korean companies did no promotion in Europe and it was all spread through the internet, it was a startling sight.

Yes, most of these groups are affronts to musicality, but the more important thing is that people around the world are given an alternative to having to idolize only white faces as glamorous or beautiful.

Doesn't matter that much anymore!

You Have a lot of useful ideas! Maybe I ought to ponder doing this by my self.

Love the new zerg, this is going to be so exciting to play :)
