PREF MAG 24: ANOTHER PREVIEW

With all the traveling and hustle-bustle of the holiday season, I've fallen behind a little... this time, failing to post these preview images of Pref Mag #24.  It doesn't matter... these pics are still hot, no matter how many times you've already seen them.  On the cover... Michael Churchill by photographer Lope Navo.  Michael's a 22 year old psychology major and former hockey player with a dream of landing a job with a well-known magazine.

Also in this issue, images from Rick Day and Justin-Julius Santos (pictured below), Alexandre Campbell, Jim Verburg and more.  I'll be posting some of the other images soon.

JAMES MARSDEN GRABS IT FOR GQ

James Marsden demonstrates how to achieve spring's unfettered look in this new feature from GQ.

The Oklahoma native has been popping up in diverse and unexpected roles of late (see Hairspray). Perhaps it’s because, at age 34, he’s finally grown into his looks. The wrinkles about the eyes, the well-placed creases here and there—the man has weathered well, from a soap opera pinup with a high-definition smile to a handsome but believable dude.

Remember that cute pic of James in the new GAP ads?:

JOHNNY DEPP for ESQUIRE JAN 08

Johnny Depp takes the cover of Esquire's first issue of 2008.  Leading up the the release of Sweeney Todd: The Demom Barber of Fleet Street, I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot more of homorific heart throb.  Inside the mag, Johnny takes the stage with Tim Burton in an interview by Cal Fussman.

JUNIOR MAGAZINE: ANOTHER LOOK at ISSUE #2

Ohlala posted some "first issue" images today from the pages of Brasil's newest gay publication, Junior.  If you haven't seen them, you might wanna take a look.  You might also recall that I included Made In Brazil in an Around the Way post on 11.27.07 featuring images from the "second issue" of Junior which hit newsstands just a few days ago (11.28.07).  But just in case you missed'em, I'm including them here!

The two pics below are from the gallery of unused images that didn't make it into the second issue... at least this time around.  But look who's on the right!  It's Terra's latest boy, Roberto França.  And I have to say, this sexy image is right up there with my faves from Terra.  For a look at more of the unused images from issue #2 of Junior, click here.

JOHNNY CASTLE: MEN MAGAZINE'S MAN of the YEAR 2007

After a close photo finish, Johnny Castle has claimed the top spot as Men Magazine’s 2007 Man of the Year.  Says Men Editor In Chief David Kalmansohn. “Our top finalists are some of the sexiest, studliest guys in the world. Still, Johnny seemed to stay just ahead of the pack all the way in. He really gives the readers what they want – as you can see from this special issue!”

As you can see from the shots below, the competition was stiff - so to speak.  Pictured left to right are three of Johnny's hottest competitors: Paul Gordon, Zack Johnathan and Christian St. John.  Click each image if you want it bigger!

The January 2008 issue, which features new and exclusive photos of Castle and his four hottest rivals, will hit newsstands December 4th, 2007. Castle succeeds last year’s winner, Zeb Atlas, in this 14th year of the magazine’s competition.

MATT DAMON: PEOPLE'S SEXIEST MAN ALIVE

MATT DAMON takes home the title of People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive for 2007.  According to People:

"George Clooney and Brad Pitt have shamelessly campaigned for him since 2001, but this year's winner was Bourne to the title. "You've given an aging suburban dad the ego-boost of a lifetime," Damon, 32, told PEOPLE, explaining why he couldn't possibly accept the crown – which perfectly demonstrates many of the reasons we chose him in the first place: irresistible sense of humor, rock solid family man, heart-melting humility."

Matt might have been Bourne for the role, but he was up against some other prime contenders.  Among them, Ryan Reynolds, James McAvoy, Brad Pitt, Javier Bardem, Patrick Dempsey, Dave Annable, Will Smith, Shemar Moore, Ben Affleck, Adrian Grenier, Will Yun Lee, and Justin Timberlake.

Check out all of the candidates here!

JOHN KRASINSKI SCORES ONE in MEN'S HEALTH

The Office star John Krasinski scores one for the average guy in the December 2007 issue of Men's Health.

On being a gamer: “I’m not necessarily the most worked-out guy in the world. I’d rather just go out and play hoops. The actual competition has always been the most fun.”

On the ultimate goal: “You can be successful and still be in love, be passionate about something, play hoops with your buddies on weekends. That’s the endgame, you know?”

There's nothing wrong with being 'average'.
