Gossip Girl's Chace Crawford tops People's Hottest Bachelors list. It's an interesting choice: The show isn't huge in the ratings (or airing new episodes at the moment), but his biceps do look good in a summer polo. I like it. While I look forward to dissecting that issue on Friday the way I did Sports Illustrated's swimsuit extravaganza — only enjoying the hour I spend staring at it in my office so much more — let's take a peek at the online tease:
• I love that it took two women to interview Crawford. Translation: His hotness is so great that it must be diffused by two pairs of eyes. Note: I'll need to have Annie in my office when I look at his photos just in case…
• Chace likes a woman who can beat him at beer pong and watch football. I can do that!
• Chris Pine: I don't find this photo of him bruised in Star Trek all that hot, I've got to be honest. I'm guessing it's not the one in the magazine.
• Shia LaBeouf: Which movie do I need to see to make me "get" him?
• Adam Lambert: Classic crotch shot.
• 90210's Ryan Eggold and Twilight's Kellan Lutz: Looks like Hot "Bromantic" Bachelors is a category this year. I guess these two are posing as Butch and Sundance? This has the potential to be as awesomely bad as last year's Mario Lopez recreation spread. Friday cannot come soon enough.
• Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson: Finally, someone in his 30s!
• Brody Jenner: I was going to skip him entirely, because I don't do The Hills, but he's recreating a Harlequin romance novel cover. And better, apparently more Bachelors do this in the issue. Who else agreed to that? Again, cannot wait.
• Common: This quote will be tough to beat: "One of the most extreme things I've done is be extremely in love. It was just the whole lifestyle I chose; I sat down and helped plant a garden with her! That went a little too far for me. But I was trying to be in a balanced relationship and do some of the things that she would enjoy, too. Then afterward you think, 'Dang — did I do all that?'"
• Taylor Kitsch: Action movie stars are apparently very hot.
• Ha! I just realized that Trojan is advertising next to this gallery. GENIUS.
• Robert Pattinson: Has Chace Crawford ever been mauled the way Robert Pattinson was Monday in New York? Just asking.
How do you feel about Crawford taking the title? And who else do you hope makes the cut? I'm happy to see that inset of The Hangover's Bradley Cooper on the cover.








That is not a “classic crotch shot” of Adam Lambert. But I think it’s funny that’s where *your* eyes went. Now, his RS cover? *That* was a crotch shot.
I must say I am surprised Rob didn’t get it. Chace is great but he’s just so pretty. I am also happy about Bradley Cooper. I’ve been crushing since Alias and right now he looks better than ever!
That Adam Lambert picture is not a “crotch shot” at all, classic or otherwise. His Rolling Stone cover … now THAT was a crotch shot!
Lunacy. “People” must have done it for the attention it would ineveitably create. If Rob had been named “hottest” I wouldn’t be typing this note. I’d be sitting here thinking, “we’ll, yeah!”
Bonkers choice. Pattinson shoudl have been No 1. It jut makes The People look silly for resisting. Probably due to Pattinson being too busy for an interview or his management not wanting him over promoted on all the mags. Vanity fair is far classier
Rob was Robbed, people mag not big on RP. Chace is cute but not on same level as RP
They picked a horrible lineup last year and nothing ha changed. Rob Pattinson should have been Number 1 but I hardly think he’s crying about it.
Pattinson has the Vanity Fair Most Beautiful man in the world which is far more prestigious and voted by the public. Some old foggy editing The People is so out of touch.
I am so happy for Adam! It seems like everyday, there’s something about him that’s complimentary! I am so in love with him and his music. He’s the #1 bachelor for me
I’m sure millions of girls agree with me worldwide.
Ugh! Bottom of barrel or what?
Ugh! Bottom of barrel or what?!
omg,robert pattinson should have been #1, not chace, we havent seen him in anything but gossip girl, and robert is just so hott. and he is like a phenonmenom.
Rob should be No 1. I;d rather he wasnt on the list at all rather than 10 and behind such horrible guys.
No way, how could this guy win. He sure as hell doesn’t have the looks…. In our eyes Rob IS the hottest bachelor…
Well I wont be buying the people. if Rob ad been No 1 I would have so more fool the magazine.
