I just read a list of the “sexiest men in music” and I fucking kid you not, Harry Styles, Adam Lambert, Drake, and JUSTIN FUCKING BIEBER were on the list.
...which pissed me off so much that now I’m making my own list. It may not be perfect, but it will be far superior to what the internet has so far offered me.
The 10 Sexiest Men in Music (in no particular order):
1. Jack White (The White Stripes, The Raconteurs, The Dead Weather)
He's dark, mysterious, and sexy--and not everyone can be so weird-looking and still so hot!
2. Anthony Kiedis (The Red Hot Chili Peppers)
If we pretend these days:
And these:
...never existed.
I mean, really. He's like the king of sexy dirty funk/rap/punk rock. It doesn't hurt that he usually performs shirtless too, so we get to see his sexy tattooed body!
Extra shoutout here to Flea too, especially when he was rocking the blue hair!
3. Jared Leto (30 Seconds to Mars)
Kinda hard to believe that he's like 40. I mean everyone else can basically just go home when Jared Leto is there. This is a shot from a pretty kinky and sexy, albeit creepy, video--30 Seconds to Mars' "Hurricane."
4. Kurt Cobain (Nirvana)
Is an explanation even necessary here?
5. Brandon Flowers (The Killers)
He's got a total good-boy look (any surprise he’s Mormon?), and he's not normally my type, but somehow he is still SO sexy and appealing.
6. Jason Wade (Lifehouse)
Make fun of watery, sorta-Christian pop-rock band Lifehouse all you want, but the lead singer is sexy and you all know deep down that the second his scratchy voice starts singing “Hanging By a Moment” you can’t help but sing along.
7. Damon Albarn (Gorillaz, Blur)
British scruff and genius music? Yes please.
8. Tyson Ritter (All-American Rejects)
Forget that you listened to his music in 7th grade. He’s got GORGEOUS eyes and a sort of creepy sexy look that makes you seriously swoon even 12 years later.
9. Sufjan Stevens
You want indie? You want smolder? You want someone to sit and drink coffee with you while strumming a guitar on a rainy day?
10. Ryan Kattner a.k.a. Honus Honus (Man Man)
A gritty voice and a shy personality--he’s a tortured soul and it’s oh-so-appealing. Besides which, check out the immense glory which is that mustache. I've never seen a man make one of those things look so sexy before.
In case you haven’t noticed, I generally go for either dark and mysterious, or scruffy. I used to think I had no type, since I frequently find myself attracted to persons all over basically every spectrum, but I’ve started to realize I really do have a couple different types and I just step outside of them when someone stands out to me.
Thankfully I ended up with the sexiest scruffy man a girl can ask for. And thankfully he doesn’t care when I act like a 14 year-old girl over celebrities!
Who am I missing? Feel free to post a comment with more sexy male musicians!
