10 Sagittarians We're Lusting After
Christopher Ehlers READ TIME: 11 MIN.
Nicholas Hoult
Although Hoult got his start at a very young age, including his breakout role at the age of eleven in "About A Boy," Hoult first garnered queer attention on television's "Skins" and then as Colin Firth's young object of affection in Tom Ford's "A Single Man." Since then, his career has taken off with roles in "Mad Max: Fury Road," "X-Men: First Class," "Warm Bodies," "The Favourite," and–most recently–Hulu's "The Great," for which he was nominated for an Emmy Award.
Ian Somerhalder
While he is most known from television's "Lost" and "The Vampire Diaries," it was his performance as the drop-dead sexy prep school student in "The Rules of Attraction" that made him an instant gay icon. A film and television mainstay since his career first took off in the mid 90's, he's also the cofounder of Brother's Bond Bourbon.
Jamie Foxx
A mega-talented multi-hyphenate if there ever was one, Jamie Foxx broke through in 1994's "In Living Color" and he never looked back. In addition to being one of the greatest actors of his generation (and an Oscar winner), he's also a proven draw on the airwaves, even winning a Grammy for "Blame It," his 2009 earworm. While he suffered a health scare earlier this year, Foxx seems to be on the mend and is still slated to play Mike Tyson in an upcoming television series from Antoine Fuqua, director of 2001's "Training Day."
Jake Gyllenhaal
Although Taylor Swift fans are eager to swear off all things Jake Gyllenhaal, there's no denying that he's one of the greatest–and best looking–actors of our time. If his wrenching, Oscar-nominated performance in "Brokeback Mountain" wasn't enough to score him leagues of gay fans, then it was his string of acclaimed performances on the stage that endeared him further to gay audiences, especially opposite Annaleigh Ashford in Sondheim's "Sunday in the Park with George," a performance that is rumored to be revived on the West End next year.
Russell Wilson
While this quarterback for the Denver Broncos is most known for being a Super Bowl champion and one of the most reliable quarterbacks of the late 2010s, he is known of late for being Mr. Ciara, with whom he has two children. He's ultra-sexy, though, because of his big heart and deep pockets: a chronic supporter of different causes, Wilson has raised money for causes like the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, the Seattle Children's Hospital, and donated one million meals to those in need during the COVID pandemic. Now that's hot.
