11 Beautiful Men for 2011
Spring, so a young woman’s eyes wander to the wonder of beautiful men. Living in the Hudson Valley gives me two advantages: 1. The Hudson Valley men: hiking, farming, working outdoors and looking, often, quite sexy thank you. 2. Trips into the City seeing the well dressed urban male, yummy.
So here are 11 Beautiful Men for 2011, I am sure I am leaving out most of the beautiful men in the world, but that is just because I have not met you yet. But I hope to very soon.
Dr.J – Julius Erving Then and Now – of course he was beautiful in his athletic hey day.
But when I saw him recently during the All-Star weekend festivities, my mouth dropped open. In fact even the man I was watching the Slam Dunk contest with mentioned how elegant he looked. For my money he was never more beautiful than he is right now.
Zinedine Zidane. I have no idea what that guy said to him during the World Cup, and I really don’t care.
Michael Fassbender – the director of Jane Eyre said, Mr Fassbender is not classically handsome, I have no idea what that means, all I can say is Mr Fassbender is talented, handsome and beautiful.

Sean Avery – Listen I don’t like the Rangers, the only hockey team I really care about is the Pittsburgh Penguins. But a hockey player that interns at Vogue magazine and supports the Human Rights Campaign on Marriage Equality for all, is beautiful in my book.
Michael Warren. My first crush and I am still crushin'
The man on the S train between Times Square and Grand Central Station – You: Asian man in his mid-30s, slightly longish dark hair, wearing a Hugo Boss (I think suit) charcoal suit and carrying a vintage briefcase. Me: staring. You: never saw me but I saw you. You were beautiful.
Jason Silva of Max and Jason. Smart, funny and handsome. Deadly combo, love it.
Michael Jai White. Black Dynamite is an instant classic. Satirical wit and whip smart. Ummm...Mr White, you may want to consider doing a couple chin ups to beef up those pecs a tad, just a suggestion.

Olivier Rousteing. Balmain's new designer –because he is taking over one of the most influential fashion houses in the world. And well look at him!!!
Kevin McHale – I was not a fan of the Celtics growing up. It was the era of Magic v. Bird, and you know I was for Magic. But anyway there was something about the passionate play and Frankenstein shoulders of Mr McHale that made me fall in love with him. Even though I never rooted for the Celtics, I always cheered for Mr McHale.
11. Robert Moses Civil Rights Advocate, SNCC and Freedom Rider of Freedom Summer 1964
People think they are pretty tough now. I see you, walking down the street, getting cars to slow down or stop for you. Pants hanging down or baseball cap too big and tilted to the side. Black,Latino or White you're tough right? Gangsta? Hummm.
Well for my money one of the Original Gangstas - I mean tougher than nails, tougher than old shoe leather...was the Freedom Riders. Young folks who went down to Mississippi et al, to register Black folks to vote with death not an unlikely outcome for them. (And some died) And an ass-whopping very likely (happened to most). So while you're thinking you are tough take a look at what real guts looks like.
PBS is showing an amazing documentary Freedom Riders (makes me wish I had a TV.)
Robert Moses, SNCC worker, in Mississippi, July 1964.
Beautiful Men Hall of Fame
As always I have to mention the top Beautiful Man in America, the president of the United Stated, Barack Obama. He continues to just get the work done despite all the madness around him. I appreciate your elegance, grace, humor and determination. Thank you for all you do, Mr. President.
