Too Sexy For Monday: Vinicius Borges

20-year-old model Vinicius Borges is the latest addition to Terra's The Boy, photographed by Márcio Del Nero.

I like that The Boy seems to be experiment with different photographers every month, and that Márcio Del Nero has a bit more of an artistic approach to the spread. More after the jump.

To Get You Through The Weekend: Raphael Laus

Model Raphael Laus looks so hot in the Jeansmania editorial in the third issue of DOM that I almost wish he had graced the cover instead of actor Rodrigo Hilbert.

On a side note, I like that there was a bigger emphasis on sexier pictures (all tastefully shot) in the latest issue of the magazine. Keep them coming.

Too Cute For Monday: Caio Castro

Cc0428081

Cc0428082

His curly hair, surfer physique, and recent television debut on the cast of the teen soap Malhação, have the Brazilian media calling him the new Cauã Reymond. Whether that proves to be true or not, the fact is that Caio is only 19, and beat 25 thousand other boys to land a role on television. Visit Ego for more pictures.

Two Surfers Are Better Than One

The Full Back View

Terra's new boy Tiago Botega may not be as sexy as last month's Jonas Sulzbach, but he managed to turn out what is probably the most revealing spread featured so far on The Boy series.

Too Cute For Monday: Rafinha

Big Brother Brazil 8 winner Rafinha has finally found some time in his busy schedule to pose shirtless for Globo's Paparazzo. Even though I find him extremely cute and campaigned for him to win the show, I am disappointed with the outcome of his spread. Below are my favorite pictures.

More Jonas Sulzbach

When photographer Didio is shooting for The Boy, you know the end result will probably feature a little more skin than usual, so I am happy he was the one responsible for shooting the spread with model Jonas Sulzbach this month.

I have uploaded the members-only pictures on a photo album as usual. Click here to check it out (semi-NSFW). There is a making of video after the jump.

22-year-old Jonas Sulzbach is probably the sexiest model to pose for Terra's The Boy in a while. Below is a selection of some of my favorite pictures of the spread by photographer Didio.

BBB8: Working At The Car Shop

Fernando left Big Brother Brazil this past Tuesday. Like other contestants who were eliminated, he also posed for Paparazzo acting sexy. His spread is my favorite so far this season.

Now let's just hope he is reading this and decides to send me some pictures of him in a swimsuit.

Perfect Lighting

As much as I would not have necessarily picked Otávio Rauter as The Boy material, I have to say that the spread with him for the site is pretty on point. I love the use of lighting.

And in case you want to see more, I have uploaded a photo album with the 36 members-only pictures from The Boy. There is enough plaid and exposed skin there to keep you warm if you happen to be snowed in. Warning: semi-NSFW.

Click here for the photo album, and check out a making of video after the jump.

Too Hot For Monday: Otávio Rauter

It is still summer down in Brazil, but Terra is already thinking fall in the latest spread for its The Boy series. The model featured this month in a plaid extravaganza is 27-year-old Otávio Rauter.

I wish Terra would have picked a hairy guy to match the lumberjack mood. View the complete spread with Otávio shot by Felipe Lessa at The Boy.

I Am Not The Only One In Love With Rafinha

Brazilian teenagers not surprisingly share the same feeling. The 26-year old Big Brother Brazil 8 contestant is looking extra cute on the cover of the latest issue of teen mag Capricho.

He is so going to win this season. For more pictures of Rafinha, check out Capricho's picture gallery.

No, that is not a white swimsuit contest. It is the crowning of the king of the 44th Municipal Carnival Ball in Recife, elected through an online poll earlier this month.

More Thiago Rufinelli

Thiago Rufinelli is one of the cutest boys to pose for The Boy in a while, and I can't believe he is only 18. I love how at ease he seems to be with the lack of clothing. More of the members-only pictures after the jump (semi-NSFW).

While the spread with model Thiago Alves for The Boy would not have been my choice to start the new year, I have to admit that the exclusive members-only pictures are pretty sexy. More of them after the jump.

The First Boy Of The New Year

Terra's The Boy kicks in the new year with 28-year old model Thiago Alves, photographed by Felipe Lessa.

I find it one of the worst spreads ever shot for the site, not because of the absence of a six-pack, but because the pictures lack some of the free-spirited sex appeal which is so typical of The Boy.

Visit The Boy for the complete spread. More on Monday.

And The Hottest Brazilian Of 2007 Is...

With 21% of your votes, model Evandro Soldati was elected the Hottest Brazilian of the Year at Made In Brazil.

Model Andre Ziehe, who was featured with Evandro at FHM Collections earlier this year, took the second spot with 20% of all votes.

And Ramirez Allender came in third, with 13% of all votes. Unfortunately I do not have a picture of him with a Made In Brazil sign, or else I would have posted it. I need one asap.

Some of my favorite Evandro moments of 2007 are after the jump.

Speedo Break: When Artists Blog

I am loving that Globo networks invited (or coerced) some of its actors to blog about their lives, and that one of the chosen ones just so happens to be Alexandre Slaviero. To be honest, I have no interest in what he has to say or recommend, but I do love the fact that he posts pictures of himself every now and then.

The picture above can only be topped by a phrase that accompanies the post about fishing: "Você, a vara e o tempo." You have to speak Portuguese to truly appreciate it as a literary gem.

On more Alexandre Slaviero news, the actor is going to be involved in a controversial love triangle in the soap Duas Caras. His character Heraldo is going to fall in love with a woman who happens to love with the gay character played by Thiago Mendonça, who will actually be into Heraldo. Tricky and somewhat cliche, but I am curious to see how it will play out. Thanks Alvaro for the heads up.

The Boy Sizzles At The End Of The Year

The December spread shot for Terra's The Boy with Roberto França proves that photographer Didio is intent on sexing things up, and offering more fully exposed back views than what we are used to on the site. Roberto may not be one of my favorite models to pose for The Boy this year, but his spread certainly is. Now I only wish Didio had also shot Ramirez Allender and Fernando Sippel.

Pictures of Roberto França skinny dipping after the jump (warning: semi-NSFW).

Soap Watch: Seduced By Rodrigo Hilbert

The gay character played by Thiago Mendonca is not the only reason why I am trying to tune in to the soap Duas Caras lately. Actor Rodrigo Hilbert does a fine job in elevating the ratings as well, whether he is in white boxer briefs or just a towel.

Warning: semi-NSFW. Video via BMV.

Too Sexy For Monday: Roberto França

The month is not over yet, but 25-year-old model Roberto França has already been revelaed as the December model for Terra's The Boy. The spread closing the year also marks the debut of photographer Didio, who replaced Cristiano, and turned out the most daring session of photos the site has published this year.

Leandro Okabe Redux

Leandro Okabe was one of my favorite models featured on The Boy this year. Connex 24.7 interviewed him this week to get his take on sexy Brazilian models and being a gymaholic. "The market for the Brazilian models is good, because Brazil is a very mixed country, here you can find blond, black, asian... everything! And also Brazilian people are very sexy! Two models I like to stand out are Evandro Soldati and Bruna Tenorio."

Head over to Connex 24.7 for the complete interview. More pictures of Leandro after the jump.

More Of Michael Horta

As sexy as the pictures for The Boy have been recently, very few of them had the same effect on me that the ones of Michael Horta. Not sure exactly of what it is, but they are incredibly sexy and a lot more revealing than usual. More after the jump (semi-NSFW).
