Men We Unexpectedly Fancied In 2015

I went to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens and left with dazed grin and a sent messages folder of ‘OMFG ADAM DRIVER’. Driver has garnered many crushes thanks to his role as the moody Adam in HBO’s?Girls, but I kept associating him with that questionable character. Until The Space Opera. Now I think of him as the sexy Technically Not A Sith Lord my love could tame in a fan fiction story.

Miles Teller had a year of highs (Whiplash) and lows (Fantastic 4, that Esquire interview). The rollercoaster of attraction, etc. LOS ANGELES, CA - AUGUST 10: Actor Ben Affleck attends the Project Greenlight Season 4 Winning Film premiere "The Leisure Class" presented by Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Adaptive Studios and HBO at The Theatre at Ace Hotel on August 10, 2015 in Los Angeles, California.

I thought Ben Affleck came out of the Nanny Divorce looking like someone you’d let buy you a drink at an airport bar during serious flight delays. I’m sorry for these Wrong Thoughts, but this is how I feel. LOS ANGELES, CA - AUGUST 12: Actor Chris Geere arrives at The Carondelet House on August 12, 2015 in Los Angeles, California.

If you find yourself at a loose end/stuck to the duvet anytime soon, watch underrated sitcom You’re The Worst, and come away fancying Chris Geere, the uncharismatic?writer lead who you reluctantly end up really liking. Ralph Fiennes attends the Royal Film Performance of "Spectre"at Royal Albert Hall on October 26, 2015 in London, England.

Yes, Ralph Fiennes has always been the top of most women’s YES list, but I didn’t feel a stirring for the guy until the part in Spectre where he does a bit of fighting. That banished all the Mile High memories. MONACO - NOVEMBER 19: Pierre Casiraghi attends a mass at the Cathedral of Monaco during the official ceremonies during the Monaco National Day Celebrations on November 19, 2015 in Monaco, Monaco.

Pierre Casiraghi is on the list because he’s seventh in line for a throne and his wedding to Beatrice Borromeo was the high fashion moment of the year. Can you imagine the thread count in their bedroom?

The FBI agents, see above, who arrested Martin Shkreli, the guy who hiked up the cost of a HIV medicine by 5000%, on fraud charges a few weeks ago were F I N E. VALLETTA, MALTA - NOVEMBER 27: Australia's Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull (L) stands next to Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau (2nd R) as they pose for a family photo at CHOGM opening ceremony at the Mediterranean Conference Centre on November 27, 2015 near Valletta, Malta. Queen Elizabeth II, The Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Charles, Prince of Wales and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall arrived yesterday to attend the Commonwealth Heads of State Summit.

Fair play to Canada for electing Justin Trudeau as their Prime Minister. Not only is he a Political Ride, he’s also got sound policies regarding women’s and native rights. The swoon. nick jonas attends a one-of-a-kind concert experience in New York City, ?PlentiTogether LIVE,? bringing to life the ?better together? theme of the first multi-brand rewards program in the U.S., Plenti.

Sorry, but Nick Jonas was a delightful surprise. LEVELS. adam driver attends the World Premiere of ?Star Wars: The Force Awakens? at the Dolby, El Capitan, and TCL Theatres on December 14, 2015 in Hollywood, California.

Adam Driver is on the list twice, because I’m writing the list.
