Travis Fimmel is:
Whoa, he's hot!
He's okay.
Hmmm, he's not my type.
Who?
Aww Yeah! Travis Fimmel
Name: Travis

Where You've Seen Him: In modeling gigs for L'Oréal, Motorola, and Skechers. But his biggest and most memorable one is for Calvin Klein's Crave cologne, wherein Travis (his last name's Fimmel, but he just goes by his first—how modelicious of him) appears in various stages of undress, pecs glistening, blond hair shimmering, blue eyes terribly penetrating.

Why We Picked Him: Hello! Look at the picture. A massive Travis advertisement nearly caused traffic jams in London last year. "Seeing myself on a billboard really cracks me up, mate," the 23-year-old Aussie native has said. Travis left his family's farm three years ago for L.A. "The modeling thing is so not me." Please—it so is.

Can We Come Over? "You can't take modeling too seriously," Travis has said. "I just do the work and go home." We hear he's now trying to become an actor. Hey, it worked for Marky Mark.
