"Lipstick Jungle" hearthrob Robert Buckley is giving Matthew McConaughey a real run for his money as the actor who owns the fewest shirts! JustJared.com has posted dozens of new shots of Buckley that ya just gotta see! Here is the LINK...In them, he is filming new scenes for the second season of "Lipstick."

...Hugh Jackman is a total babe!

I did a little moonlighting this week and wrote a story posted today on AfterElton.com. I can take credit for the article but not for the mouth-watering pictures that accompany it! Above is Robert Buckley of "Lipstick Jungle." and the other guys, Here is a LINK to the article. Check it out and these photos and many more!

...for me to get tired of posting pics of Mario Lopez? Hmmmm. Nope! Not possible!

Summer has only just begun and already Matthew McConaughey's beach activitiies have the paparazzi hot on his every move. I mean, I love pictures of this dude as much as anyone but apparently the overzealous photogs got on the last nerve of some of Matthew's fellow surfers.

But really, was in necessary for them to encircle the shutterbug and throw his camera into the water? The photog claims he was injured. I think it was a public beach, right? If so, it seems like the hang-tenners were out of line.

Damn. It's opening day of Wimbledon, the most prestigious tournament in all of tennis, and we have already suffered a major eye candy blow. Sexy American player Robby Ginepri, coming off a stellar run at the French Open a few weeks ago, lost his opening round match to Fernando Gonzalez in three closely-fought sets.

...we're starting to get a whole new batch of pictures of a shirtless Matthew McConaughey. What a wonderful thing...

After tonight's Daytime Emmys on ABC, there will be a show airing called "MVP." It's a popular Canadian show that just started airing on ABC's SOAPnet channel. It shows how professional hockey players and the women that love (or use) them can slap, sleep, and accessorize with the best of them. I guess no one is gay, or even bi. At least not that I know of. But I do know that the three male leads are hot, hot and hot. I chatted withj each of them at the SOAPnet pre-Emmy party last night in Hollywood.

Lucas Bryant (right) plays the captain of the fictional hockey team and he was very fun. Here is how he decribes the show: "It's totally saucy. There's very little hockey, it's sort of the behind the scenes action that matters most. There's some scandal, there's a little T and A if you will."

His character has "a bit of a dirty past which keeps popping up." Biut does he have to do any actually playing of hockey for certain scenes?
"I am Canadian and like a good card-carrying Canadian, i was born playing hockey," he said. "We did actually play a little bit but it's not so much on the air."

His co-star, Dillon Casey, has been getting a lions share of the attention for the gigantic billboard in Times Square that features him wearing very little and revealing quite an awesome body. Lucas joked: "It's just his head, it;s my body."

Dillon is not as playful as Lucas on the red carpet. I wanted to know what the heck it;s like to have this huge wall with your likeness on it in the middle of NYC.

"It's cool man," he said. "\I didn't know\ it was gonna be a billboard when I took that picture. But when they told me about it, I wasn't really sure what to think. When I went down and actually saw it, it was cool man, yeah. It's fun. You just have to take each moment as it is and just try and enjoy the ride and it;s been a lot of fun. It's cool.""

He has a tatoo on his pec in the shot and I asked if it was real. He was kinda saracastic with his reply or maybe he was teasing but not able to really pull it off: "I'm so committed to my roles, I'm like Daniel Day Lewis so I thought getting a tattoo of MVP on my chest would be perfect."

Well, good for you, man.

Then there is Peter Miller who was happy to discuss his character with me.

"He's good but it's a deep, deep good and there's a lot of layers to get through to get to the good. He's just a bad boy but he's got reasons for it. He's trying to numb himself because he's had an accident that killed his wife and baby the year before, he was drunk. so he's trying to drown it with booze, women and drugs."

This is a show that seems worth checking out!

Heard some scoop at the SoapNET pre-Emmy party last night: Antonio Sabato Jr., who rose to fame as Jagger on "General Hospital," will step back into the role for the first time in 13 years. He will being Jagger back for the GH spinoff "Night Shift" which airs for three months in the summer on SoapNET. It's going to be annoucned during tonight's Emmy telecast on ABC but, you heard it here first!

Antonio, who was one of the more memorable Calvin Klein underwear models, has been reminding us of just how hot he still is on NBC's "Circus of the Stars." He's been one of the real standouts on this competition reality show that I think has everyone wanting more Antonio in their TV lives! The show debuts July 22.

Mario Lopez appeared on the morning show Thursday and discussed the "hottest bachelor" photo shoot for People mag that had him recreating iconic beefcake poses made famous by Burt Reynolds, Brad Pitt, Richard Gere, Mark Wahlberg and Christopher Atkins.

In the article accompanying the pictorial, Mario is asked a really silly question: "Ever been hit on by a man?" (pul-eeeze, like a guy that hot in the entertainment business wouldn't be). Here's his answer: "All the time. I'm very flattered being popular in the gay community because they are a hip, cool community. They're very cutting edge so they like me and I think that;s great."

Good answer Mario!

Towleroad reports that this is one of the images to be revealed later today. II. Can't. Wait.

Mario Lopez recreates Marky Mark's iconic underwear pose in this story. Clearly, Mario is a gorgeous man but I gotta go with Wahlberg in this instance.

Who's your pick?

I thought he'd never take his shirt off again! We haven't had any fresh beefcake pics of Matthew McConaughey in forever. It's nice to know that everything looks as good as it ever did...

...I've posted any beefcake pictures of Chris Evans. Well, today is as good a day as any since it is Chris' birthday! The star of the "Fantastic Four" franchise and such flicks as "Cellular" and "The Nanny Diaries" turns 27 today.

Ya gotta figure that Chris pretty much has everything he wants or needs as far as gifts go so let's consider this photo his gift to us!

I'm not sure if I'm posting these pictures of Tony-winning "The Boy from Oz" starHugh Jackman out in the ocean because of him or because of his hot companion. Who is that guy?

And just in case you want to see Hugh with his clothes on, thought I'd share this clip of him performing at the 2004 Tony Awards...
