Blog challenge - My Box of hotties

Alright, this week's blog challenge derives from Vanillabear/Lucyfer who made a list of the hotties she's appreciates and found that there was enough to field a first team and a Castilla :P. It was also inspired by Gina's and Sarah's immortal posts.

So here is a 10 man list of the guys in my Hottie Box. In no particular order, they are:

San Iker Casillas. Those cheekbones. That shootout. I may be a Barca girl but I'm not blind. I've already said a lot about him and what I haven't said, that pic should tell you. By the way, The God of Spanish Football is 2 days older than me. That's fate, I tell you ;).


I've also previously mentioned Yoann Gourcuff, aka The New Zidane, aka Lashes. This pic is from the 2008 D&G AC Milan calendar. Now that I've found out D&G are using rugby players for the 2009 edition, I'm not so upset that Milan have loaned him to Bordeaux. Shirtless model vs. playing time, I'm glad that choice has been taken from me.


Xabi Alonso. Possibly the best dressed member of the SNT, the word that comes to mind is *suave*. Plus that video of him flirting with an interviewer that makes me think life with him would never be dull.


I couldn't choose between these two members of the Croatian NT. The older man and intellectual-looking Hrvoje Vejic or the sweet and angelic Niko Kranjcar? Vejic looks like he could give good conversation, but Niko is nice enough to take photos with random women in the frozen shellfish aisle.


Here's an injection of actual rather than perceived intelligence into the Box. Louis Theroux, is an Oxford grad with a first in modern history, broadcaster of highly amusing documentaries, and owner of nerdy glasses. Just in case you weren't convinced the man has brains, Mischka assures me he also has a PhD (tbc). That's okay, it's like a bonus.


Back to the bimbos, Henry Cavill makes puffy shirts look hot. He's the reason to watch The Tudors. I said I was going to post a video from one of his many naked scenes here but I decided instead to post the link instead because it is VERY NSFW.


Pierre Boulanger is a new addition. Watching Monsieur Ibrahim, I thought *gee, he'll be beautiful when he grows up* and then vomited when I realised he brought out the pedobear in me. Caramelbear then found pics of him as an adult (he's now 21) and the world righted itself again.


Dean Winchester is way hotter than Sam. Jensen Ackles is way hotter than Jared Padalecki. And this video proves he has a sense of humour. Can you see Sam miming to Eye of the Tiger? No, you can't.

Christian Bale needs no explanation...

...And of course neither does my husband, Marat.

One thing I've noticed by compiling this list, it's pretty apparent I have a type which should be obvious to all. Tall, dark, athletic, glasses, cheekbones and European...that appears to be the requirements to entering my Box.

Honourable mentions:
Andy Lau but he was better 10 years ago. And he has to be wearing his suit from Infernal Affairs. Throw Takeshi Kaneshiro in there too.
Adam Levine - sexy yes, but maybe a bit too slutty for me.
Adrien Brody and Gaspard Ulliel appear to have dropped off the radar in the last few years. If they'd just release a kickass movie, I'm sure they will be back in there.
Numerous other soccer hotties e.g. Canna, Del Piero, Nando, etc.
