The Wet Panty Society (formerly Beefcake of the Month Club) was started in July 2011 and is a monthly homage to beautiful, gorgeous, hunkalicious men. During that month, a picture of the chosen Wet Panty Guy will be featured every week for your viewing pleasure with a little bit of trivia. Prepare to drool! If there’s someone you’d like to refer to this exclusive society, please remember what Salt-n-Pepa said– “This is only for the sexy people”–and read the requirements.
This month’s inductee is sexy vampire himself IAN SOMERHALDER
Birth Name: Ian Joseph Somerhalder
Date of Birth: 8 December, 1978, Covington, Louisiana
Height: 5’9 1/2
Where You May Have Seen Him: As Boone Carlyle on the TV show LOST (2004-2010). And apparently he was on SMALLVILLE too, for six episodes back in 2004.
Where You Can Currently See Him: Playing the cocky and sexy vampire, Damon Salvatore on the CW show THE VAMPIRE DIARIES (2009-2014)
I first became aware of Ian on THE VAMPIRE DIARIES. I never watched LOST and I don’t remember him being on SMALLVILLE because I probably stopped watching it long before he showed up on there. I’m a CW show-whore and was thinking that this show would be my next BUFFY or ANGEL.. I tried. I really tried, but I just couldn’t get into it–even with the eye candy that was Ian and Paul– and stopped watching after Season 1. It was nothing like either one of my previous fav shows and I shouldn’t have had such high expectations for it. But he still made a lasting impression on me.
Those eyes.
That hair.
That sexy smirk.
He’s definitely my ideal guy when it comes to looks. I seem to be drawn to guys with dark hair and light eyes.
Welcome to the club, Ian!
A little trivia about Ian:
~ The surname “Somerhalder” originates from his adoptive great-grandfather. His biological great-grandfather, a wealthy English landowner, got one of his mistresses pregnant and paid an immigrant worker of his to marry this woman and give the baby a name, which was Somerhalder. The biological great-grandfather’s name was Hull. Sounds like a story waiting to happen…
~ If he hadn’t become an actor, he would have chosen a career in marine biology, writing, or advertising.
~ He enjoys reading, music, yoga and traveling.
~ He didn’t graduate high school because he traveled to Europe to pursue his modeling career.
Peace, lurve, and wet panties,
