Good News / Bad News: Kiel Mannix Shaved

I’m not very good at keeping secrets. As you’re well aware by now, I’m obsessed with Kiel Mannix. This formerly-bearded gentleman has become a celebrity in my brain, right on the same level of name-recognition as Ryan Gosling, Bradley Cooper or even some non-Hollywood personality like Francois Sagat.

So before you leave a snarky comment like “Why is this news?”, you should realize that, in some twisted way, this is news to me. Kiel Mannix no longer has a beard! While he still looks quite handsome rocking nothing but stubble, I’m pretty sure I need to drink alone tonight and pour some whiskey out for my homies. My lost follicle-homies who used to live on his face. ::sigh::

  1. You report on NEWS?!!  When did that start?

    Anyway, as a non-beard fan, I think he looks much better this way.  He’d look even better all the way naked…with both hands in the air.

  2. “You report on NEWS?!!”

    When people say things like that, I have a similar reaction. I’m a curator of smut, not a damn journalist.

  3. He looks sooo much better without the beard :P, if you like beards n facial hair, its Movember where everyone grows a dirty Sanchez pornstar beard 

  4. Now he needs to do a photo shoot somewhere in between.  A beard, but not the big woolly one he had before.  I liked the former pics better–not for the beard but for the unconventional poses and settings.  These seem a little familiar.  (And the final one looks like he’s trying too hard: unless he means for it to be a joke.)  Would loved to have seen him with nothing on but the sneaks–perhaps in that pic on the stool.  He is, hands down, though, one rockin’ hot guy.

  5. Hey, he’s gorgeous either way. Now, I happen to think he looks fine with just a bit of scruff or five o’clock shadow as opposed to a full beard.

  6. I like the I Ching on his chest.  Hexagram 63, which is symbolic of completion… “intimates
    progress and success in small matters. There will be advantage in
    being firm and correct. There has been good fortune in the
    beginning; there may be disorder in the end.”

  7. I also like that his abs aren’t a 6-pack, like most “normal” guys.  Nice chest.  A guy that is a guy that takes care of himself.

  8. good looking guy, but can he look any more depressed. It is not the end of the world as we know it.

  9. NOOOOOOOOO :(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
    I miss it…
    Although he still looks damn fine without one (an important feature for the man of my dreams [who is probably Kiel Mannix {I like to abuse parenthetical thoughts}]).

  10. Wow. He looks totally different. Very hot, either way. (Although, I confess to loving good beard too.)
