Hola, and happy Winter Solstice! Today is the shortest day of the year,
Wiccans and (some) pagans celebrate the birth of their horned god born
on this very special dark day. What a perfect day to celebrate my own
dark (Latino) gods in Hollywood! Grab the incense, a mirror and any other
magickal items you’ll need to get down on your knees and start worshiping.
David Fumero
Birthday: December 29, 1972
Havana, Cuba
This boy has been everywhere except in my own bed, it’s
a shame really. He’s an ex-U.S. Marine who was raised in
Miami. After studying at the International Actors Studio in Paris
he landed a spot in Mariah Carey’s Honey video.
For the past five years he’s played Christian Vega on One
Life to Live.
Why David?
David makes my Latino Gay Most Wanted list because anyone who’s
a model for 2(x)ist is already a gay icon. His web
site also has photos with friends that are both unbelievably
beautiful and obviously gay.
Eduardo Verástegui
May 21, 1974
Cd. Mante Tamaulipas, Mexico
I discovered Eduardo with my friend Omar while watching Chasing
Papi. We were the only two guys in the entire theatre,
and although I loved the three female leads, this guy stole the
entire movie with his charm and accent alone, oh my aching heart…
His most recent appearance in the media spotlight was on Karen
Sisco.
Why Eduardo?
Mr. Verástegui is fucking sexy and is a papi’s papi.
Eduardo’s new 2004 calendar is totally hot. If you remember
just one thing about today’s blog, it would be to buy his
calendar
at any Borders or Warehouse Music store. Go! Go, get it! Shoo!
Rodrigo Santoro
August 22, 1975
Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
My favorite Christmas movie this year is Love
Actually.It’s also the second link to Mariah Carey
in this entry. Her song All I Want For Christmas Is You
sung by a little girl in Love Actually made me cry. Although
I was crying, nothing was sadder or more pathetic than the pretty
woman who couldn’t lay Rodrigo’s character Karl. WHAT
THE HELL WAS SHE THINKING? When he stripped down to just a pair
of little black boxer briefs I got a little too excited in the
theatre. Luckily it was really dark so the embarrassment of walking
was not an issue for me.
Why Rodrigo?
Mr. Santoro was also the hottie surfer guy named Emmers in Charlie’s
Angels: Full Throttle. He makes the Gay Most Wanted list
because he appeared on screen with both Demi Moore and Cameron
Diaz simultaneously.
Al Santos
July 13, 1976
New York, New York, USA
A few years ago I was visiting a friend in NYC where I managed
to sneak into his college and take his final exam. I was only
fifteen at the time and there I was sitting in the same school
where Mr. Santos was studying medicine. It’s a small world.
Alfredo is the only guy on my list who was actually born in the
states. He’s also the only Latino I can recall who’s
modeled for Ambercrombie & Fitch. Yay, for affirmative action!
His Ford modeling portfolio also includes fashion shoots with
Versace, Armani and Valentino.
Why Al?
His half-naked role in Jeepers Creepers is enough to qualify his
thin acting résumé onto my list, but only because
he’s hot and nearly naked.
Gael García Bernal
November 30, 1978
Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico
Gael is the youngest and shortest papi out these five. He was
in both Y Tu Mamá También or Amores
Perros. If you haven’t seen Y Tu Mamá También,
you’re missing a really great wack off scene, lots of penis,
plus you get to see him lock lips with a Latino twink.
Why Gael?
Gael was presenting a Best Song Nominee performer at some awards
show and I could not get past how totally fucking hot he was looking
right into the camera and only at me. This guy had the looks,
the voice, and the charm that’s required to be on my Gay
Latino Most Wanted list.
Hold these papis close to your heart. Watch them grow into beautiful
Hollywood actors, singers, and models. Pray for them so all Latinos take
over the world and fuck that Arizona newspaper that said, "Latinos
are trendy." Who the fuck are you to say my ethnicity is fashionable?
And for god sakes, go and get that calendar
I was telling you about. ¡Viva la raza! ¡Qué viva!
