Hairy Celebrities

Today's theme is hairy celebrites, and we start with Tom Selleck.

 

Ken Clark

This is Ken Clark, the actor who played Stew Pot in South Pacific.

 

Sam Elliot

Here we have Sam Elliot dropping his pants.

 

John Beck

John Beck is showing off quite a mat of chest hair.

 

Hugh O'Brien

Hugh O'Brien never hesitated to show off his hairy chest 

for publicity photos, and he always looked good doing it.

 

Clint Walker

I couldn't do this series without including Clint Walker,

and as a bonus, we have him bearded below.

 

Lee Majors

Lee Majors looks good in bed.

 

Lex Barker

Lex Barker is best known for playing Tarzan for RKO pictures in the 1950s.

 

Robin Williams

Robin Williams was one of the most beloved and tragic figures in American entertainment.  Above we see him in The Fisher King, where he and co-star Jeff Bridges went naked in Central Park.  Mr. Bridges described the 4 a.m. movie shoot as one of the most amazing experiences of his life, with Mr. Williams "being wild, free, and joyful . . . improvising like no one else could."

 

Martin Milner

Finishing with Martin Milner, the actor best known for Route 66.  Above we have 

a publicity still for the 1960 comedy movie The Private Lives of Adam and Eve.

 

Gudunov

This is Alexander Gudunov, a Bolshoi Ballet dancer who defected 

to the USA and eventually drank himself to death.

 

Celebrity Day, Part 1 - Nudes

Today we have a two part celebrity set, with part one being nudes.  We begin 

with a shot of Burt Lancaster that I somehow managed not to post until now.

 

Arnim Meier

Arnim Meier is shown above in a scene from 1978's Germany in Autumn.  Better known for his other films which were directed by his love Rainer Werner Fassbinder, he killed himself

in Fassbinder's apartmen after the couple broke up in 1978.  What a waste!

 

Richard Harris

Richard Harris starred in This Sporting Life in 1963.  He is somewhere in the above scrum in an oversized bathtub, but I don't know which one he was.  We see him with another actor below.

 

Charlton Heston

Here we have Charlton Heston from one of the Planet of the Apes movies.

 

Alan Ginsberg

This is Alan Ginsberg in Japan in the early to mid 1960s.

 

Celebrity Day, Part 2 - Hairy Boxers

Part two of our celebrity series features hirsute boxers, starting with Jim Jeffries.  He famously was called "The Great White Hope" when he fought (and lost to) Jack Johnson in 1910.

Below we see him as World Champion, 1899-1905.

 

 

Bobo Olson

Honolulu born Carl "Bobo" Olson was sometimes called the Hawaiian Swede due 

to his mixed ethnic background.  Better known for his stamina than his skill,

 he had a fairly successful career as a middleweight.

 

Ingemar Johansson

Here we see Swedish great Ingemar Johansson emerging from a pool.

 

Scott LeDoux

Closing part two with a 1983 shot of Scott LeDoux being weighed in for a match with Frank Bruno which turned out to be the last of his career.  Gotta love the colored BVDs.
