Some of the hottest cute boys out there have managed to spin modeling careers into full blown movie careers! Who are they, and why do they rank on the cute boy meter?
Ashton Kutcher started out as a Calvin Klein model before scoring big in his very first audition as an actor - the shaggy haired boy with the killer facial expressions hit the big time and never looked back.
Josh Duhamel even beat out Ashton for top model status before moving into television (starring in Las Vegas as Danny McCoy) and finally hitting the big time in Transformers - reportedly, Spielberg handpicked him for the role of Capt. William Lennox.
Slim, charismatic Chad Michael Murray sported Hilfiger jackets before landing his starring role as Lucas Scott on the CW hit series One Tree Hill. Of the two Scott brothers, Lucas wins the cuteness award with his sensitive side although James Lafferty is verrry hot as Nathan… but since Lafferty was an actor since age ten, he doesn't qualify for this particular category!
Travis Fimmel is another adorably slim and silky haired Calvin Klein underwear model. He nearly broke into television as Jonathon Clayton aka Tarzan in a failed WB series, and finally made a successful jump from catwalk to cable show in Beast with the late Patrick Swayze. Rumor has it that Travis is so cute they had to take down a London billboard featuring him because drivers paid more attention to it than to where they were going.
Ian Somerhalder was a kitten on the catwalk by age ten, making his move to the big-time modeling for Gucci, Guess and Dolce & Gabanna. He crossed over into acting with his bisexual role in Rules of Attraction, did a short stint on LOST, and now flirts his way menacingly across the CW as Damian in the teenage drama Vampire Diaries.
