It seems like every day we get a little more insight into how celebrities are really JUST like us. For example, even they have doubts about their own beauty when newspapers ask them about what it’s like to be known for being so beautiful. I know. Jon Hamm, if you can believe it, Mr. Handsome himself, doesn’t even necessarily think of himself like the handsome guy! From DigitalSpy:
“I don’t necessarily think of myself like the handsome guy. That’s reserved for Brad Pitt and Ryan Reynolds and those guys,” the 41-year-old explained in an interview with the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
“It’s certainly nice when people say nice things about you, don’t get me wrong. I guess I never really thought of myself that way. I just wanted to be a regular person and try to portray parts as varied as I could.”
Haha, ooook, Jon Hamm. We’ll have to assume that by Ryan Reynolds he for sure meant Ryan Gosling, because “the handsome guy” is def not Ryan Reynolds. No offense to Ryan Reynolds. The “sometimes very muscular, but not other times” guy FOR SURE, but I’m not sold on “the handsome guy.” Anyway, though, back to the matter at hand: Sure. Poor Jon Hamm, never wanted to be thought of as the handsome guy, and now has to deal with being thought of as the handsome guy AND crippling self-doubt. In order to cheer him up, please vote in our Jon Hamm Confidence Boosting Poll.
Loading ...Awww, there you go, Jon Hamm. Cheer up! You can maybe still play an ugly guy if you just put on glasses!

They should rename the word “Hammsome”
“So hammsome, yet so so so so stupid.”
If Jon Hamm doesn’t think he’s devastatingly way out of my league than perhaps I can pull some pickup artist moves on him and we can be boyfriend and girlfriend forever and ever. I get all Madeline Kahn in Clue about him.
I think this is as good a place as any to point out to all of the ladies here that I am also not handsome, if you know what I mean.
#Hammblebrag
It’s just like when I asked TIlda Swinton if she knew she was a stone cold fox, and all she said was “Why are you in my bushes? I thought I gave you the slip in Morocco! Gaspar, ready my elephant gun.”
Sure, he thinks he’s not handsome, but Kim Kardashian is the one that’s the fucking idiot.
I legitimately don’t see the handsomeness in Jon Hamm’s face. I do not get it. It’s beyond the “not my type”. I sincerely cannot even consider him to be objectively handsome. I just really do not find him good looking at all? Like, I find his smile really awkward and sneer-y and I think his chin is ugly and his face is maybe too wide and too stern. I understand that I am not part of the consensus on this one, but there you have it! I’m sorry to Jon Hamm who is probably nice and definitely good at his job, but most of all, I’m sorry to YOU, Videogum community, for disappointing everyone in regards to this crucial matter.
I accept your apology on behalf of all Hammites, and offer one Fassbender as a gesture of the peace we have made:
That is a really unflattering gif of Mr. Fassbender. He looks worse here than he does as a blonde in Promethius. If we are offering him as a sacrifice, we should at least make him look as presentable as possible.
I disagree but am still allied with you in Fassy love, badideajeans.
Now that’s a gif!!!
Although I disagree with you on the Hammster, I feel you with regard to the general point. For example, I am baffled by the attraction to Ryan Gosling. Differences make the world go ’round!
I upvoted this for the use of the word “Hammster”
I don’t get Gosling either!! Eyes are too close together, or something.
DEAD EYES. It’s because he has dead eyes. That’s what I’ve been saying, it’s why he was perfect for Drive. Dude has no soul.
He really does have dead eyes!! Now I can’t not see it. Do you think The Mouse is responsible or was he always like this?
I’m not crazy on Gosling, but he looks super good with a mountain man-beard. So maybe it’s also chin-related. But when Gosling is presented as a hot guy to objectify, he’s too polished for my tastes. Hamm, on the other hand, has never looked bad. Except in Bridesmaids, but I think that was acting as I’m sure he looked fine but was so convincing as *that* kind of asshole that I was not attracted to him. Plus that haircut is a real thing happening in MIlwaukee at any moment so maybe it hit too close to a home I escaped as a teen?
Reynolds is the Ryan I don’t get the attraction of the whole world to. Gosling, yes I get it. Reynolds just seems like an asshole.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…Let me calm down for a second…Ok, I guess this just means more Gosling for me! Jon Hamm and Ryan Gosling are both in my top 5, so I don’t understand how you could find them not attractive!
Can we still be friends?
Sawyer from Lost is my entire Top 5.
PERFECT beginning of status in relation to your profile pic there. Upvote ahoy!
I am as straight as a dude can be. Not in a football-and-homophobia way, but in the sense that I just do not find other dudes even a little attractive. So I can’t really see the handsomeness, per se. HOWEVER, I can recognize him as the coolest, most charming dude in the world, and he has effectively replaced Dave Grohl as my non-sexual dream boyfriend.
Grohl is also in my top 5!!!!! He’s so funny! My top 5 isn’t just based on looks, it also takes into account personality. That being said, I believe all the guys in my top 5 are super hawt.
I seriously don’t get the Grohl thing.
I didn’t even know there was a Grohl thing. You ladies are weird.
Leave me out of this. I am not attracted to Dave Grohl. But thank you for calling me a lady.
Jon Hamm’s appeal to me is that he is so masculine without being macho. He has a presence, something going on behind his eyes, an intelligence, a wit, a magnetism, just something that makes me want him to shove me up against a wall and…..omg what were we talking about?
I would also like to add that his failure/refusal to conform to the Hollywood man-trend of maintaining an impossibly perfect body is also very hotttt (each extra t represents one inch around Hamm’s middle that he COULD lose but is fine just where it is).
He should be like Jean Dujardin who when told by Meryl Streep that he was “very handsome,” simply replied: ‘Yes, it’s the story of my life.’” .
Baaaaawl! Seriously, it really chafes my chaps when a really physically beautiful person tries to play too humble, when facts are facts. Regardless of how you feel about your looks, if almost everyone you’ve ever met tells you how gorgeous you are, them’s the breaks – you is hot; deal with it. And don’t be a stranger.
poor guy must fuck like dogshit
He also doesn’t think he’s Dick Whitman. We all know he’s confused about himself.
I’ve said this story before and I’ll say it again. The guy made me tongue-tied when I met him. He wasn’t even famous yet. He’s just *that* good-looking. I was literally handsomestruck.
Acceptable responses to being called handsome:
-”I don’t see it, you’re crazy”
-”I was a bullied nerd in high school”
-”I used to get mistaken for a girl”
Or you could do what Hugh Jackman does and change the subject by peeing on the floor.
First of all, why hasn’t anyone posted his high school football photo yet?
Secondly, he’s an ugly crier.
Thirdly, he is a guy who can pull off some amazing serious faces, but his doofy-looking doofiness is always one toothy grin away.
Fourthly, where is that football pic?!
KajusX….. I thought we were friends.
I found this, then I found out about his life growing up. Poor guy lost his parents really young! It’s okay, Jon Hamm, we’re all here to give you hugs! Lots and lots of hugs. The inappropriately long kind of hug that has a meaning behind it…
I heard his interview on Fresh Air where he talked about losing his parents. A very dusty driveway moment for me!
HAMM-SHOCK-A-LOCK-A!
Come, rest your head on my chest Jonny.
He likes varied parts. Like the part of handsome ad-man. The part of the doctor-fling who’s almost too perfect. The part of the douchebag whom the female lead only likes because he is really good-looking.
I like Jon’s varied parts too. Well, just the one above his neck and below the waist. #imsosorry #jonhammmademedoit
I like to call his penis “The HAMMer.” #truestory
I would also like to state that brows usually dictate men’s overall attractive-ness in the eyes of others. If people get on board with the eyes and the eyebrows, they usually roll with the rest of the face. I am basing this on zero research, but I am a scientist.
I will donate to the science that helps us understand why Jon Hamm has such a profound effect on me and women like me. What will I donate? Well, I don’t want to make this #grossgum, especially after the boys promised to dial back the Christina Hendricks stuff. But let’s just say I’m available for field studies with the subject in question. I’ll even bring a flask. You know, for science.
I saw a man in his low 30′s in a bar in NYC a couple of months ago that looked exactly like a slightly younger Jon Hamm. If I didn’t have a boyfriend, I would have made him mine. There’s no ring on this finger, so anything is possible. For that matter, there’s no ring on Jon Hamm’s finger, so ANYTHING is possible.
I’ve never heard ages referred to in that way!
“He was in his high 20′s, maybe low 30′s.”
It sounds like temperatures!
I’m going Centigrade. Makes me look younger.
You mean lower.
Oh jeez Hammster. Your quote would have made a lot more sense if it ended with “ha JK”.
