Man of the Week - Brock O'Hurn

Brock O'Hurn

Birth name: Brock Vincent Phill Hurn
Birthdate: August 19, 1991
   From: Sacramento, California, USA
 Job: Actor / Model / Fitness Trainer
Sexual orientation: Straight
 
Okay, this week, I'm going to talk about the man who is, in my opinion, the best looking guy, the "perfect" man on this planet; Brock O'Hurn.

Brock was born in the summer of August in sunny California to parents Paige Hillenbrand and Adam Vincent Hurn. They, unfortunately, split up when he was only nine years old. His father did have a criminal record for possesion of a firearm, so perhaps it could've been that. Anyway, he is the second oldest of five siblings; he has sisters Aspyn and Carly, and brothers Drake and Daggan.
 
Growing up wasn't easy. He went to different schools (almost nine times) and suffered with his education, though he fit in with class mates. It wasn't until high school when the bullying started. Brock, at the time, was 6 foot 3 and weighed 135 pounds. It wasn't until the second year that he discovered the art of bodybuilding. His first month of bodybuilding went well, putting on 35 pounds, just by eating two turkey sandwiches and two bowls of Fruity Pebbles at two in the morning.
 
After school, he went to work with his uncle, who worked in a HVAC company that installed heating and cooling systems, before getting to work for Abercrombie and Fitch and True Religion. Although this wasn't where he wanted to be, he said that it helped him overcome his shyness.
After training clients online for a wile, he eventually moved to the big city of LA where his dream was to become an actor. It wasn't until one day a guy suggeted to him an app called Instagram and told him that his life will change forever.
 
Brock then gained international fame for his height (now standing at a massive 6 foot 7), muscular body and for popularizing the man bun. All it took was one video of himself tying up a man bun and the internet went crazy. As of today, the video has over 5 million views.
 
Brock's dream of becoming an actor has come true; he got the role of Horse in the comedy horror films 'Boo! A Madea Halloween' and its sequel. From 2016 to 2017, he played Brody Allen in the drama televison series 'Too Close to Home'. He has also appeared on 'Good Morning America', 'ABC News', 'Steve Harvey' and 'Young Hollywood'. Brock is also an executive producer in the upcoming mystery short film 'Waterfall', which will be released in 2019.

Brock has received several opportunities to be featured in many reality TV shows, including 'Dancing With the Stars' and 'WWE', but because he is very self conscious of building his brand as a celebrity, he says "It's not what I want. I know what my goal is, and I won't do anything to sabotage that".

Brock likes to cook (one of his favourite meals to make is salmon with asparagus), likes to eat pizza, go the the gym and read books.

Brock is, without a doubt, one of the most sexiest man alive,as I've said at the beginning. He surprisingly shares a similar resemblance to actor Jason Momoa if you think about it. His long, thick blonde hair is every guys dream. His blue eyes can get you lost in a magical winter wonderland. And his thick beard is goals. What amazes me the most is that he is still single. He is waiting for the right woman (remember, he is straight) to walk into his life, but he isn't in any rush to date anyone yet. One reason is that he won't date someone his age, as he believes that they would have nothing in common when they start dating and thinks they're "immature". Not all women though. But he definetly won't date anyone older than him, that's for sure.

Man of the Week - Ryan Chmelik

Ryan Chmelik

Birth name: Ryan Leach Chmelik
Birthdate: April 17, 1987
   FromStearns, Minnesota, USA
 Job: Associate, ES&A
Sexual orientation: Gay 

All right, in this weeks post, I'm going to talk about a very charming guy I've come across recently; Ryan Chmelik.

Ryan was born to very loving parents Wayne Norbet Chmelik and Helen Virginia Leach. He has two brothers named Joshua and Chris. 

Growing up, it was safe to assume that he had a thing or two for guys. Ryan went to study at the University of Minnesota-Duluth in 2006, where he got his Bachelor's degree in business and marketing.

 After graduating, he moved to the sunny west coast of Los Angeles where he got his first job as a event coordinator / production assistant for MTV Networks and as a executive assistant for NFL Network. In September 2012, he worked for HBO as an account assistant before moving to New York City in 2014, where he'd been promoted as a sales development executive.

After four years of working for HBO, he got a new job as an associate in the Enterprise Solutions & Analytics field for the company Huron, which is a global management consulting company offering services to the Healthcare, Higher Education, Life Sciences, and Commercial industries.

Not much of his personal life is known, or if he has a boyfriend. Or if he's even married. But he does like to travel, as he has already been to places outside of the United States, such as New Zealand, Jordan, Egypt and even Antarctica. He probably likes dogs, from what I can tell.

He has, however, been into trouble with the law one time. Sometime around 2007, he was arrested for underage drinking. Probably coming home from a party of some sorts, but thankfully it wasn't that much of a huge deal.

I just want to say that this guy is, without a doubt, incredibly hot. Handsome. Sexy. His big arms and chest just makes me drool for this guy. He might not have six pack abs, but he can get away with it. I wonder if he has a deep masculine voice. Or maybe he has a more feminine side to his personality?

Man of the Week - Joel Gorf

Joel Gorf

Birth name: Joel Peter Gorf
Birthdate: June 21, 1985
   From: Haywards Heath, West Sussex, England, UK
 Job: Voice-over Artist / Actor
Sexual orientation: Gay

Alright, now this week, I am going to talk about this handsome ol' chap here in this blog; Joel Gorf.


Joel grew up in Aberdeen and Hampshire. At a young age, he knew that he had a thing for men. When he came out to his family, they were very supportive. Growing up, he always had a thing for classical theatre, including the likes of Shakespear. Because of that, he went to Alton College in Hampshire to study performing arts before going to study at Cumbria Institute of the Arts in Carlisle.

After graduating in 2010, he moved to the capital city of London to learn the craft at Drama Centre London, where famous actors such as Pierce Brosnan, Emilia Clarke, and Tom Hardy went to train. During his time there, he performed in productions such as 'Filumena Marturano', 'Wolves and Sheep' and 'Antigone'.

After that, Joel has appeared in more theatre productions, including 'Twelfth Night', 'Cymbeline', and 'Three Sisters', the latter was performed in Moscow. But he is perhaps better known, theater wise, for playing the character Macbeth in the self-titled production 'Macbeth'. He performed the character across the United Kingdom and Ireland, and even performed in Germany.


Although Joel has a passion for theatre, he also provides voice over work. His deep, rich voice, which was described as "being covered by a warm duvet", got him to voice commercials for Barclays, Waitrose, Zurich, PS4 and Jaguar. He also voiced a character in the World of Warcraft video game.

And not only that, he has also does some work in front of the camera. He has appeared in a commercial for Sony Bravia and has made featured appearances in two short films; the trader's colleague in '120 Days' and Colonel Kenny in the VR film 'Seance 360'. His most recent television appearance was an armed policeman in the UK TV series 'The Royals', despite it being a very brief role. Joel was supposed to play the character Dominic in the kickstarter-funded, sci-fi show 'The Marshlands', but the role went over to someone else.


The Three Bears (Rowse Honey)
One day, in 2017, he was called by his agent to audition for what he thought was a normal commercial casting. After getting the role for the unknown commercial, he met two other actors, somehow similar in appearance to him. He then realised that this was going to be something different. And exciting. 

The end result was a commercial for Rowse Honey, the given title? "The Three Bears"! Joel portrayed the middle bear. The public response was widely positive and has become a well known commercial in the LGBT community, especially the bear community. The commercial was featured in the front cover of Stylist magazine. Because of this, the commercial won a silver medal at the Creative Circle Awards.

When he isn't performing, he likes to visit museums, cook, go swimming and watching daytime cooking programmes. He also loves listening to baroque music and playing video games. Joel is a member of the Save the Manatee Club, an organization dedicated to saving manatees.

Joel wasn't always a muscular bear we see today. He started going to the gym at 22 years of age, and now weighing 14 stone (around 195 lbs), it's obvious that the hard work has paid off, thanks to his personal trainer, Peter Pazdro.

Joel first met his soon-to-be boyfriend, also an actor, named Paul Kendrick in drama school in 2009 (where else?). They've been dating for a while and it's safe to say that they love each other. They live together in North London, along with two pet gerbils, Wellesley and Floyd. They had another gerbil named Troy, but I'm not sure what happened to it.
