Chris Evans' mother totally reads AfterElton
In his new interview with The Advocate, AfterElton fave Chris Evans notes that he's well aware of his stellar showing on our Hot 100, thanks to his mom:
This may come as quite a shock, but gay men enjoy you. I was well aware of that. I remember my mother saying, “Chris, do you know you’re #2 on some gay list [AfterElton.com’s Hot 100]. Brad Pitt is #12!” I was like, “What?!” I couldn’t believe it. That was 2007. I hate to break bad news, but you dropped to #8 in ’08. Aww, that’s outrageous! Who took my spot? I forget, but Jake Gyllenhaal was #1 for both years. What? Jake? Unacceptable. [Laughs] Actually, Mama Evans may have heard about Chris's ranking from his brother, Scott, who is gay. Chris says that he hangs out mostly with Scott and his gay pals, who he calls "f*cking hilarious" and "the funniest people I know", but he's had to draw the line at going to gay bars for the whole tabloid photo concern. Sad to see that Evans is missing out on Musical Mondays and Drag Queen Bingo, but nice to see that he's tickled by his gay fanbase. Here's to #1 in 2009, Human Torch!

Chris Evans(?)
Didn't know him (remember wondering who he was on that hot list), Went to IMDB to see what he'd been in (had figured Fantastic Four {well, some sort of comic book type film} from the 'Human Torch' remark) - never seen anything he's in. May have to keep an eye open for him - also, he's from Boston where I currently reside, so that's fun.
...
Drag Queen Bingo?
Isn't that the title of the next independent film he's doing next?
My god he is hot!
It is nice to know one of my fave crushes is sweet as well as hot. He is the ONLY reason I watched both Fantastic Four movies.
P.S. Great picture choice!
I agree, that's one of my favorite pics...
How can you be gay and not know Chris Evans?
Holy moly! So we watch only Mama Mia? You folk never watched Cellular? Good thing we at AE don't go for the hot hunks! Personally, I love stuff with hot guys in it.
1.) There's plenty of
1.) There's plenty of people who don't know who this guy is. He's not that famous, and he's never starred in a major hit where he was the lead character.
2.) Unlike yourself, maybe a lot of gay men go see movies because they think they look like good films, rather than because there's some "hot" guy in it.
3.) The Mamma Mia comment doesn't even make any sense.
Chris Evans' gay brother...
...is evidently shown here:

And he's been on Fringe. And he's uber-cute!

Chris Evans' brother
I spotted that guy on
Chris's bro
Thats Chris´ brother?
I remember watching this and noticing the super cute guy, I was extremely sorry about his fate. BTW those were two of the most disturbing minutes Ive seen in a while, it was a great set up.
Thanks for the link. : )

I've had the good fortune of going to the same gym that Chris frequents out here in Studio City. Let me tell you, the first time I saw him walk in, I literally nearly fell off the treadmill. And let me also say, he's even better looking in person! Holy hotness, he is a fine fine specimen of manliness. Oh, and Ryan Carnes used to be a trainer there as well, until his career took off with Desperate Housewives. Love my little gym. ;)
As for Chris's movies, I would second the recommendation of Cellular. Very fast-paced action-thriller that was surprisingly good. And Chris has his shirt off in a scene or two...
Also, of course, Not Another Teen Movie, where Chris had his breakthru performance and gained a legion of gay fans with the naked banana scene. Movie is an absolute riot.
I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Sunshine, a scifi movie where he's part of an astronaut team trying to save the sun, though it can be somewhat slow. And he's absolutely adorable in The Nanny Diaries, though the movie itself was rather mediocre.
Damn you homonyms!!
For a second I was getting ready to read some snide remark made by Evan's mother about this site, but sadly its a light article about Chris's hottness...
And his brother is super gorgeous! I hope he can find better work than 10 seconds in a sci-fi show.
Aww...Chris seems sweet and
Aww...Chris seems sweet and that picture of him is super-hot.
I just saw that Chris' brother Scott was an extra on Fringe and man, he is hot too just like his brother. <3
Chris Evans
I don't know, though.... Reading this news blurb on IMDB this morning, I thought Evans sounded a little bit like a jerk, frankly.
Fantastic Four star Chris Evans is forced to avoid nights out with his gay brother - in case the press begin to speculate about his own sexuality.
The actor's younger brother, Scott, is openly homosexual, and often asks the star to join him on outings to gay bars.
But Evans admits he is forced to decline the invitations, because he fears a photograph of him at a gay club would spark rumours which would haunt him for ever.
He says, "I'm down with the gays. Mostly I'm hanging out with (my brother) and his gay buddies, who are f**king hilarious. They're the funniest people I know. They've invited me out to gay bars before, and I said, 'Look, guys, I've got to draw the line there.' That's where a photo will get taken, it will run in magazines, and before you know it, I'll be living down the gay rumour for the rest of my life."
I'm like a superhero, with no powers or motivation...
Frankly, it sounds like his publicist put her foot down...
...regarding his going out to gay bars with his brother and friends. The phrasing in his statement sounds suspiciously like something a public relations person would use to convince a client to behave in a certain way. And since he's paying her good money for her p.r. expertise, he probably feels he should follow her advice.
Anyway, you should read the entire Advocate interview instead of just the part quoted on IMDB. It's an excellent interview and I think he comes off very well overall.
Yes
Ah, okay then, I see I need
