The 40 Hottest Male Bodies Of 2015!

From: Boy Culture

That body just ain't normal.
 Matt Bomer


When Matt Bomer was first on White Collar (2009—2014), an image circulated of him kissing a boyfriend. I posted it and got an earful from a pal of his, who claimed Matt was not in the closet so posting the image was redundant. It kicked off an argument about what constitutes being out when you're a public figure, the type of argument still being had today (note my Colton Haynes post). The pal clammed up, though, probably once he realized that just because Bomer was not hiding his involvement with future husband Simon Halls (with whom he now has three children), that wasn't the same thing as acknowledging to a low-level gay blogger (or any media) that he was actually gay. When the media is disallowed from reporting on your significant other, you're not out.


Bomer eventually did come out, and did so with grace and without the kind of bitterness that clouded Jodie Foster's begrudging acknowledgment. He also, arguably, has not become “that gay actor,” as many proponents of the professional closet warn will happen to leading men who are on-the-record gay—he has shaken his moneymaker in the Magic Mike movies and enjoyed five years on White Collar, convincingly playing straight. (Here he is filming it on my block in 2013.) He is set to appear in a remake of The Magnificent Seven (2016).


Magic Matt
 But not being typecast as gay doesn't mean a gay actor should turn down gay roles, and Bomer illustrated that beautifully with a heartbreakingly honest performance in the otherwise disappointing TV adaptation of Larry Kramer's The Normal Heart (2014); it's a scandal that he did not win an Emmy for work he will have a hard time topping.


This is a list of hot bodies, and he certainly earns inclusion for obvious reasons, just as he would earn inclusion on any list of flawless faces. He also seems to be a prime example of  a beautiful person who happens to look the part.
