The Daily Swoon

Heck, with his diver’s body and skimpy Speedo, Troy Dumais could have the face of an ogre and still be our Hunk of the Day. Luckily (for us!) that’s not the case — this hottie is handsome from head to toe.

Ah, a man with a hammer. Carpenter Carter Oosterhouse (and part-time Nautica model) stars in two shows on HGTV – ‘Red Hot & Green,’ a program about eco-friendly design, and ‘Carter Can,’ where he helps homeowners through seemingly impossible home improvement dilemmas. Full disclosure: We watch the shows mainly to gawk at Oosterhouse’s unbelievable hotness.

There are beautiful outsides, and there are beautiful insides… and then there are people like Blake Mycoskie, who epitomize both to the extreme.

One reason we love ‘America’s Got Talent‘: It introduces us to hunks in categories we never could have imagined. Say, magicians. Say, Landon Swank. (God, even his name is hunky.) The Alaska native (naturally) is currently fighting it out as one of the show’s top ten remaining acts.

Quintessential California boy Paul Walker is a lot more than just a sandy-haired surfer. The actor from ‘Varsity Blues’ and ‘The Fast and the Furious’ is also a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-itsu, a marine biologist, a race-car driver, an earthquake relief provider!

Ah, nothing like some prep school prettiness to get us all hot and bothered. Boyishly cute Drew Van Acker plays the slightly creepy character of Jason DiLaurentis on ABC Family’s ‘Pretty Little Liars,’ and like we said, he definitely fits the “pretty” bill.

Nothing’s more attractive than a man with a talent… and Charlie Siem certainly fits that bill. The hauntingly handsome classical violinist hails from Britain (sigh… an accent…), and released his first album in 2008. His latest album was released this month in the UK, and will soon be available in the US.

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s our Hunk of the Day — Superman: Man of Steel’s Henry Cavill! This 28-year-old British hunk is set to star in the upcoming Superman movie, set to be released in 2013, and in our dreams after seeing newly-released photos of him in the skin-tight suit.

Thank you, BBC America, for bringing us the miniseries The Hour, starring the broodingly good-looking Ben Whishaw as Freddie. He hails from Bedfordshire, which to our American ear sounds incredibly ye olde worlde exotic.

A man in uniform? We like, we like. Two uniforms? SIGH. Such is the case for actor Daniel Sunjata, who plays firefighter Franco Rivera on ‘Rescue Me’ and nurse Eli on ‘Grey’s Anatomy.’ He’s unique and exotic, and has an absolutely flawless smoldering gaze.

You know what they say about tennis? It keeps a body in mouth-watering physique. Well, that may not be what they say, but that’s what we’re saying after getting a look at Rafael Nadal’s recent Armani campaign.

One (of many) reasons to love Bollywood: 38-year-old actor and model John Abraham. The ridiculously good-looking hunk has not only starred in tons of movies and modeling campaigns, but has an MBA and – wait for it – loves puppies. Abraham does work for PETA, as well as Habitat for Humanity. Abraham also has his own fashion line called JA Clothes.
