DDoM - DeCoteau Dude of the Month

Josh Henderson


Tyler Hoechlin

We begin the month (and the year) with two guys. I was only going to feature Josh Henderson. But since I started last year with Tyler Hoechlin, and there's so many great new photos of him, thought I'd do a double.

Josh was one of the stars of David's 2003 opus, Leeches! Probably the most successful of the cast, as far as long-term careers go. How could he not be, with such stellar thespian talent?

Before the acting, he was musical, as part of a short-lived pop group. After working with David, he got various TV and film work. Then he landed a recurring role on Desperate Housewives, where he was able to display his true dramatic range. He showed up later on a few episodes of 90210. Now, if the network gods don't push it back again, we'll be seeing Joshie this summer on the Dallas revival. Co-starring, ironically enough, another Housewives alum, the moobalicious Jesse Metcalfe. Now there's someone who deserves to be in a DeCoteau flick. How'd you miss him, Dave?

And Tyler? I've said what I've wanted to say already. If you want, you can do more oggling here.

Craig Horner






Bradley Cooper

In 2010 and 2011, I started the year out with he of the temptingly tasty torso, Craig Horner. But with Legend of the Seeker cancelled, there are no new pictures coming out of a shirtless sweaty Cypher. But since I've gotten on my wide wallpaper craze, I thought I'd add dimension to some previously posted ones. His career showed such promise. It's pretty amazing to see his evolution as an actor. Let's hope this isn't the last we see of Mister Horny. Hornier. You get what I meant.

I did want to start the new year with more than recycled material. So here's someone whose birthday is later this week. A man with a body to die for, eyes you could get lost in for hours, funny and down-to-earth, and speaks lovely French to boot. I've featured him before, but let's revisit Bradley Cooper. All I've got to say is, bask away. Oh, and Happy New Year.

Tyler Hoechlin

A new addition to the DeCoteau stable is 23-year-old Tyler Hoechlin. You might remember him from his time on 7th Heaven. I didn't fancy him much back then, but now, hmm. Especially those eyes. Rather a stretch to star in David's Grizzly Rage. Maybe it helped him get a part on the new Teen Wolf. He's got more projects in the pipelines, so it'll be interesting seeing how the boy progresses.

Happy Horner-y New Year!

Craig Horner

As last year, I thought I'd start out 2011 with one of Australia's hottest exports in recent years, Craig Horner. And finally, his birthday is revealed. It's January 24, 1983, which will make him 28 in about 3 weeks.

Sadly, his series, Legend of the Seeker, wasn't renewed. No more shirtless torture, or general toplessness (all incredibly plot-relevant and not at all gratuitous), how will we ever make it through the year? His IMDB page doesn't show any new projects, but I can't see him being unemployed for long. I wonder if this look is for an upcoming project? If so, all I can say is, hell to the yes!

Gimme some sugar, baby

Tim Tebow

Soon the Sugar Bowl game will start, and Tim Tebow will play his last college game. The end of an era for the Gators. I think there's hope that Brantley will be the next Tebow, but you can never tell. I'd like John to do well, since he's from here.

I'm planning another post about Timmy closer to his birthday in August. In the meantime, I stumbled across the above wallpaper at the Defining Grace blog. I wish I could say I created this amazing composition, but no, credit where credit is due. Larger versions of it can be found at this post on the blog.

Decided to try out this as a monthly feature. We'll start with Greg Cipes, whose birthday is January 4th. He appeared in DeCoteau's Ring of Darkness. Which is, as far as I can tell, the first boyband horror film. That has a former Baywatcher and an American Idol contestant in the cast. Yeah, only David could do a movie like this, God luv 'em.

Greg's regular gigs consist mostly of voicework, including Beast Boy on Teen Titans and Kevin in Ben 10: Alien Force. Ironic, considering he ain't exactly ugly.

And yes, I'll get to some of the Voodoo Academy guys eventually.

Happy New Year! To celebrate, here's Craig Horner. I can't find any reliable sources as to when his birthday is, only that he was born in 1983. There are some places that say today's the day, which is enough of an excuse for me. He's known more globally now for Legend of the Seeker. I'm predicting it'll be this generation's Wild, Wild West, turning young impressionable minds gay with all the shirtless bondage. Not that a TV show can turn anyone gay. I'm just sayin'. Btw, I'm liking the scruffy look he's sporting this season. Though there seems to be less shirtlessness, whassup with that?

Anyway, before Legend, Craig was popular in his homeland of Australia. See (and hear) some of the reasons why here.

Btw, does anyone know what his ethnic background is? He looks to have some aborigine or maybe Maori in the mix. Considering the results, that's a very good thing.
