I'm Chris -- the creator and co-author of Hunk du Jour. Every weekday we post interviews, profiles, and photos of noteworthy men... everyone from mega-celebrities to normal folks (like you!).
We're driven by an appreciation of the men in our world, and want to prove to the world that you can have a fun and sexy site without having to resort to posting porn every day. (Not that we don't enjoy that too, there's just a place for everything.)
You can sample some of our posts below, or visit and bookmark us at http://www.hunkdujour.com to see it all!
Are you a pretty handsome guy with an interesting story? We'd love to hear from you -- perhaps you'll be the next one featured!
When I'm not working on the blog, I'm a software engineer in Seattle, WA. I live with my partner of 6+ years and spend a lot of time hanging out with friends, taking digital photos, continuing my education, and enjoying life.
I've also worked in theater as a stage manager and backstage crew member. I love the excitement of preparing of opening night, and dealing with the odd occurances that seem to pop up during the run of the show. One of the craziest nights I remember is when our crew of 6 was reduced to 5 by someone having to get rushed to the hospital... we had the same amount of work to do to make this show happen -- but one less person! Somehow we made it...

Nick Adams : Hunk of the Day (11/7/09) [View | Hide]
Check out these photos of Renato Ferreira, who is prominently featured in the latest issue of Bello Mag. Renato appears in Boys in the Hood, a fashion editorial from Richard Gerst.
Says Gerst of the shoot:
Renato is truly polite - clear, calm, direct- and "strong" in all aspects of his personality.
When I put him in front of the lens he became this concentration of energy, barely containable by that rippling physique of his -- which he obviously has worked very, very hard perfecting!
"Boys in the Hood" was conceived as a fall fashion shoot and shot with Cameron K. Carpenter styling, someone I have worked with before. He is always great fun to work with.
The strobed throw back shots obtained outside during the day came from the concept of street-wise toughness and action. I wanted something beautiful and atypical.
The editors at BelloMag agreed - and loved the look.
Check out three more outtakes from the shoot after the jump -- a big thank-you to Richard for sending them over!
The next installment of The Bachelor is on the schedule for January 2010, and filling the big shoes this time around is Texas commercial jet pilot Jake Pavelka.
Mark Salling showed us on a recent episode of Glee that he can hold his own amongst the cast, with an inspired version of Sweet Caroline on a recent episode (see the video after the jump!).
What you might not have known is that he covertly released his debut solo album under the pseudonym Jericho. Mark's official site has sample tracks and you can find the album, Smoke Signals available for purchase on his website (along with a signed photo!) or available on iTunes.
Jason Lewis may be best known for his portrayal of Samantha's boy-toy-yet-more Smith Jerrod on Sex and The City, but he's rolling around in the sheets for a different reason now.
Jason is part of a new campaign for Charisma at Home, a line of bath and bed linens.
Check out this series of behind-the-scenes photos from his photo shoot... and perhaps imagine yourself waking up next to someone like him!

Vanity Fair posted the first of four sets of outtakes from Twilight star Robert Pattinson's photo sessions with legendary photographer Bruce Weber. Pattinson will be appearing on the cover of their December 2009 issue.
Cheyenne Jackson is back on the Broadway stage again, this time starring in Finian's Rainbow at the St. James Theatre. In an interview with OUT's Michael Musto Cheyenne tells us that one part of his agreement to do Finian's Rainbow was the flexibility to take time for other projects as well. This is why he will also be appearing on an upcoming episode of 30 Rock.
Fans of Cheyenne and Fox's mega-hit show Glee probably share in the disappointment that he was unable to film his much-anticipated episode of the series. Cheyenne reports of the experience on his web site, saying "I was cast in an episode of GLEE in a part thought of specifically for me, and was thrilled. They flew me out to LA to film, and...I got the flu, had a fever of 103, and couldn't shoot." They quickly recast, but Cheyenne hopes to be back for another chance with Glee.
If that isn't enough excitement and activity for you, Cheyenne releases his CD with Michael Feinstein tomorrow! Their jazzy CD, The Power of Two has been available for pre-order on Amazon.com and will release on the iTunes Music Store tomorrow.
