Who is the hottest Billy Budd of all time?

TEDDY TAHU RHODES


THEODORE UPPMAN


NMON FORD


SIMON KEENLYSIDE


NATHAN GUNN


ROD GILFRY

It's time for our second "Who's the hottest" poll. Randal Turner won the contest for the hottest Don Giovanni in a landslide with some tough competition. Now it's time to determine who the hottest Billy Budd is of all time and the competition is tough again!

Every nominee was selected by Barihunks readers, so if your pick isn't there it's because you didn't nominate him. Barihunks thinks that the readers have picked a hot bunch of nominees.

Here are some picture to assist you in your selection:

  3. Total tossup between Keenlyside and Gunn. Oh to see them together! Uppman is freakin' cute though.

  4. Hard to choose... they're all so hot!

    Vote goes to Rod Gilfry - he's my favourite living baritone. Besides, he'd need a better pic! Try Francesca Zambello's site (unable to insert link).


    I'd totally hug them all. Have yet to see Nathan (he's very pretty on thee pictures especially on this...). By the way, the Munich Opera says there will be no dvd about that super-erotic production. Doesn't someone have a bootleg?

    Now it works... this pic.
    Isn't it just like as if both Vere and Claggart were thinking about where to corner him in the darkness? :D

  6. Definetely Simon Keenlyside aka the singing washboard-abs!!! The best baritone around and a terrific actor. And yes, the body is perfect too ;-). Just think of the picture when he is hanging down from the scaffolding with his naked torso and barefoot. The man is the epitome of "barihunk".

  7. Simon Keenlyside. Although he's not so hunky up close, as I can vouch from when we talked about the weather (oh noz!)
