In her most recent post about Chris Evans last week, Sarah referred to this as his Hot Professor look – the glasses, the slightly longer hair, and the beard… I agree with her, it works on him, and we’ve seen a lot of him lately as he promotes Red One which looks like a very silly movie. And in my mind I hear Hugh Grant’s Daniel Cleaver voice calling it a “very silly movie”. IYKYK.
Chris was the Sexiest Man Alive in 2022 and that announcement came basically just as he and Alba Baptista went public with their relationship. They were married a year later in 2023 and since then he’s kept a pretty low profile on social media because of the batsh-t way some people reacted to and are still behaving about them being together. There’s been so much toxicity, a lot of harassment, it can’t be healthy for anyone.
Chris’s reign as the Sexiest Man Alive is over, but he’s actually brought it up a couple of times, at least, over the last few days. He showed up on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert twice this week – just last night in a taped bit with this year’s SMA John Krasinski (which you can see here starting at the four minute mark) and also the night before when he stopped by to cuddle puppies, because if there’s one thing we love about Chris Evans, it’s that he loves dogs. Even when he’s not on camera you can hear him cooing over these babies.
Over at our Substack, The Squawk, there’s been some discussion about Chris’s hair – how thick and wavy and lush it is. And, um, how much fuller it seems to be? Honestly I hadn’t noticed anything different over the last five or so years, so if he did get some help it would have been a while ago. But I say this because we were just talking about men’s hair procedures in general, not related to Chris, in one of my group chats on the weekend which was in response to the reel below about what the OP calls “BBLs for men”. She points out that one of the giveaways is often a buzzcut and this is true, at least in my world. I know a few people who’ve had hair transplants and they alllll buzzed their heads for it. Also they all went to Turkey, the world capital of hair transplants.
Apparently if you’re ever on a flight back from Turkey half the men on the plane have bandages from the procedure. South Korea for face, Turkey for hair! At least for the regular degulars. Celebrities have their own overpriced clinics in Hollywood.
