EMBRACING LIFE, CULTURE, AND THE SUBLIMELY RIDICULOUS
{ Category Archives }
…three men in a tub! i’m not a massive fan of indie rock band menomena, but i do quite enjoy these comical promotional photos of the boys. i wish more hot rockstars would hop in the tub together.
while all three of the guys are handsome, i’m partial to justin (center). i could see myself dropping the soap for him, haha! two more gratuitous shots after the jump…
kevin barnes, of montreal’s sexually-ambiguous lead singer, totally wants to be david bowie circa 1971. despite the shameless mimicry, i must say the glam suits him; he definitely looks better than tranny-licious davey havok (the fact that kevin’s actually talented helps as well)…
his band is currently on tour in support of their new album, hissing fauna, are you the destroyer?, and it turns out that kevin has been showing audiences the goods during the live performances. it might merely be a way to raise his profile, but hey, he’s got my attention! check out the dirty pics after the jump. i’d say it’s time to induct him into the hot rockstar club… don’t you agree?
who are these snow angels? they’re whirlwind heat, a michigan-based band with a penchant for stripping down to their skivvies, both on-stage and off.
i came across these guys by chance, and in fact they’re music didn’t really touch me inappropriately, but how could i pass up a gratuitous picture post? after the jump, check out a few more of david, brandon and steve — three new hot rockstars — wearing next to nothing.
i was really rooting for drew barrymore and drummer fabrizio moretti, but after years of bliss they — no, i refuse to use “dunzo,” that shit is so annoying — they’ve reportedly parted ways. this of course means the hottest member of the strokes is suddenly available.
yes, my days of lusting after nick valensi have passed. these days he’s a living, breathing skeleton, and that’s just not hot.
but i digress. as for those lucky ladies in the big apple, now is your chance to bag this curly-haired cutie! if you’re feeling slutty, he’s definitely vulnerable. and probably horny. happy hunting!
also, what better time than now to add fab to the ¡viva la graham! hot rockstar club? welcome, dear. if you need a shoulder to cry on, you’re in good company.
that’s totally how i feel when i see saosin’s lead singer cove reber. these hot rockstars aren’t getting any younger, i guess… i’m just becoming more of a dirty old man.
his band is totally not my style (in fact, i think they’re boring and unoriginal), but i don’t mind seeing him strip off his shirt when he’s on stage. anyway, it’s been far too long since i introduced a newbie to the ¡viva la graham! hot rockstar club, so i thought it was about time for some fresh meat.
and i know that he looks super young in the photo at right - scroll down and i promise you won’t think i’m such a perv.
i never saw an episode of rock star: supernova, and now i kinda regret it. i didn’t realize there was anyone really noteworthy on that show until i happened upon photos of phil ritchie. he didn’t win the “competition,” but he definitely wins my vote for hottest contestant.
his band, lennex, isn’t anything revolutionary (think stone temple pilots), and he’s probably a total douchebag in person (most reality t.v. contestants are)… but i really like the half-naked photos i found of him. haha! so yeah, even if he’s still a rockstar-in-training - and despite the nipple rings (check them out after the jump) - i’m still putting him in the hot rockstar club.

…is good enough for me.
as i said yesterday, i’ve been meaning to post about butch walker for a while. he’s definitely a hot rockstar, as you can see in the above calvin klein ad from several years back. welcome to the club, mr. walker!
butch has definitely changed as the years have gone by. he’s been in the business as far back as the late ’80s, when he was in a hair metal band (mark slaughter, eat your heart out!). before his current gig as frontman for the let’s-go-out-tonites, he gained fame as the main attraction in goth-rock trio marvelous 3.
here’s the second photo in what is apparently a homoerotic series from fall out boy pete wentz. last week i posted a pic of him getting affectionate with cobra starship’s gabe saporta. here he is at a recent rolling stone soiree showing some love to hitmaker/rockstar butch walker, who i’ve actually been meaning to feature on ¡viva la graham! for a while…
only time will tell who pete wentz seduces next. maybe he’ll make nice with brandon flowers and they’ll “pretend” to make out on the red carpet. dare to dream.
these days, everyone seems to be bisexual - or at least bi-curious - especially the new breed of upstart rockstars.
here’s a prime example. check out this campy-yet-sexy shot of cobra starship’s gabe saporta and fall out boy’s pete wentz. sure, they’re just mugging for the camera… but they both seem very comfortable, don’t they? it makes you wonder what happened when they put the camera away.
the red hot chili peppers are notorious exhibitionists. though we did love the socks on cocks schtik, nowadays, the guys tend to keep their pants on. but that doesn’t mean we still don’t get to see a bit of flesh. after all, homoeroticism has long been a part of rock ‘n roll.
in a band like the chili peppers, it’s easy to blend into the background - especially when you’ve got two attention hogs (frontman anthony keidis and bassist flea) fighting for the spotlight. i tend to notice the quet ones, and i’ve always thought there was something hot and mysterious about guitarist john frusciante.
whether its in concert or for a video, john isn’t afraid to follow keidis’ lead and show off a bit (the clip for their recent single, “dani california,” was actually the inspiration for this post). so i’m sure you saw this coming, but we simply must welcome frusciante into the ¡viva la graham! hot rockstar club. also, if you’re so inclined, i’m sure you’ll enjoy a few more photos of our favorite chili pepper after the jump.
