Jack Mackenroth - Hunk du Jour

Jack Mackenroth by Kevin D. Hoover

Happy Hump Day, Hunk Lovers! Here's a hump day quickie for you, perennial fan favorite Jack Mackenroth in these exclusive pics just for your discerning eyes!

Jack gave us a little insight on the shoot:

[Kevin and I had] been talking about shooting for a while now but our schedules never seemed to synchronize. I've been a fan of Kevin's work for a long time. The shoot was initially for a Brazilian magazine called GLAD but something got lost in translation during their communication regarding art direction and they thought the photos were "too provocative" and they only ended up using one image. We put a lot of time and effort into the shoot so we sent them to you so they could see the light of day.

Their loss is our gain! Thanks, Jack! Tweet him your appreciation to @JackMackenroth (and while you're at it - follow us @HunkDuJour!)

Jack Mackenroth - Hunk du Jour

I have an exclusive look at new photos from Jack Mackenroth, taken by the incomparable Rick Day! Says Rick, "It was a pleasure working with Jack. His beauty and professionalism made my job a hell of lot easier and quite enjoyable."

Jack was similarly impressed with Rick, saying "I love all of Rick's work, because he celebrates the male physique, without depending on tools like Photoshop, so the images always come out looking fresh and real, and the lighting is amazing."

Both men have been busy lately, with Rick Day recently releasing his book Pioneers and Jack just finishing co-producing a popular web series called The Queens of Drag: NYC on Gay.com.

Cristiano Ronaldo for Armani - Hunk du Jour

By now you've seen the photos of Cristiano Ronaldo for Emporio Armani... This post may just be serving as an excuse to post him.

BUT! I do have a minor upgrade to the site that I'm sure will thrill and delight all of you... I've modified the Hunk of the Day nomination process so that we will no longer see multiple photos of the same guy on the same day.

AND! Last year we quietly implemented the return of commenting with a new system using Disqus. Please note you must confirm your e-mail address with Disqus (or use another method of logging in) for your comments to appear.

FURTHERMORE! We've put the Hunk Guide on hiatus... but you should check out Charmants.com who has picked up right where we left off. (Plus you can vote-up the Hunk du Jour posts there!)

AND YET! I'm working on creating a blogroll system to spread more of the link-love mojo around to sites I love that don't link to us.

BECAUSE! I love you guys... Have a nice Thursday.

James Blake - Hunk du Jour

Tennis star James Blake is getting ready for a huge charity event taking place on December 1st in New York. Blake vs. Roddick: Serving For a Cure is the latest installment of his annual fundraiser to benefit the Thomas Blake Sr. Memorial Research Fund.

James Blake believes that progress against cancer should never be hampered by a lack of resources. The Thomas Blake, Sr. Memorial Research Fund, founded in memory of his father, supports early detection research at Memorial Sloan-Kettering--the nation's preeminent cancer center. The Blake Research Fund invests vital seed money at the leading-edge of science: speeding the most promising work, and shortening the time it takes for discoveries at the lab bench to become better treatments at patients' bedsides. One hundred percent of every dollar donated to the Fund goes directly to cancer research - One Set, One Match, One Cure.

Nick Youngquest shirtless on the cover of Attitude - Hunk du Jour

Attitude has released their sex issue, and who better to grace the cover than Nick Youngquest? The ten-page spread by photographer Simon Harris is punctuated with an interview with Youngquest.

After his appearances in the Gods of Football calendars, Nick has acquired a huge gay following... solidified by many photo shoots and appearances in gay mags. Straight-but-not-narrow, Nick displays his laid-back attitude about being a gay sex symbol and optimism on the future of gay rugby players coming out.

Check out the story in Attitude... their digital issues are available at attitude.co.uk and are a quick (and environmentally-friendly) way to get your copy.

Vinicius Vini Oliveira - Hunk du Jour

While the headline event this past Sunday was (of course) the Superbowl, Seattle fans of the other football tuned in to the post-bowl Sounders FC SuperSearch to watch ten talented soccer players compete for the final roster position in the Seattle Sounders FC.

The Sounders FC is the 15th Major League Soccer team, and has already sold more season tickets than any other MLS team in the league's history. (They even have a marching band... the only MLS team that does.)

But back to the SuperSearch!

The big winner at the end of the evening was Vinicius 'Vini' Oliveira, who had a strong fan presence at the televised finals. He joins Swedish dreamboat (and Calvin Klein model) Freddie Ljungberg on the Sounders FC roster.

As my friends and I watched the SuperSearch finals, we were reminded how incredibly hot the players are... with Vini being no exception to that rule. (Okay, okay... and that football is an incredibly fast-paced and fun game.) We're looking into season tickets now, so maybe we'll see you alongside the pitch!

David Durante - Hunk du Jour

STATS-
Age: 28
Height: 5' 5"
Hair: Dark Brown
Eyes: Brown
Born: Garwood, New Jersey

If you are a fan of men's gymnastics, David Durante is a little hard to miss. Good looks, great body, and skills to back it up. David hit his high when he posted a 4th place finish at the 2007 Worlds. For the 2008 Beijing Olympics, he faltered during tryouts, and was selected as an alternate. Of the three alternates, he was the only one who was not used.

But it's ok David! We will still consistently watch you and your amazing skills!

Fact: David is a Standford graduate. He majored in human biology and minored in psychology.
