HOMOEROTICSM IN TED LASSO
After sweeping the Emmys last month, Apple TV’s Ted Lasso has now become maybe the most popular show on television. A lot has been said about how funny the show is, how smart, and how well-acted, but they’re missing the most important part of all:
How fucking hot all the guys are on it!
Let’s have a look at some of the studs from this hit show that makes us feel so warm and fuzzy, and not just for the storylines.
Toheeb Jimoh as Sam Obisanya
We were so excited (and jealous) when we found out this adorable right defender was Rebecca Welton’s mystery crush. That chiseled torso in Calvin Klein boxer briefs was enough to grab us, but he is also as sweet as can be! Nigerian actor Toheeb Jimoh was a virtual unknown before Ted Lasso, but we have no doubt that he’ll be entering our hearts (among other areas) in many more projects to come.
Phil Dunster as Jamie Tartt
Jamie is the closest thing to a villain on this show, and we love (and lust) him for it. Jamie is the star player of AFC Richmond, but he is also an arrogant prankster. He can be a total jerk to everyone else on the team. But those six-pack abs that Phil Dunster shows off in the locker room make it hard to completely hate his character. We love our bad boys and Jamie Tartt is one we’d love to be bad with…
Jason Sudeikis as Ted Lasso
Jason Sudeikis has done the impossible with this show. He made a warm-hearted bubba from Oklahoma seem hot! Kindness is sexy. Funny is fuckable. That is Ted Lasso. Jason Sudeikis was always kind of cute (don’t deny it), but now as Ted Lasso, he has reached a whole level of adorable. We haven't seen Ted be as sexy as some of the other guys, but we know it's there.
Brett Goldstein as Roy Kent
Whether it's his deep scruffy voice (complete with English accent), his hilarious potty-mouthed one-liners, or the unexpected gentleness he shows his niece and girlfriend, this pro soccer player turned coach might be the sexiest guy on TV! Actor/writer Brett Goldstein’s deep stare and hairy chest don’t hurt either. One episode shows Roy’s girlfriend pleasing herself while watching him just talking about his job as a coach. Girl, we TOTALLY relate! Lucky bitch!
Stay tuned for more pop culture goodness!
