He Was Featured in People's "Sexiest Man Alive" Spread. Now the Villagers Are Coming With Pitchforks.
Briefly

The accompanying photographs for the piece seemed intentionally designed to set Blanco up to fail by triggering scorn from people who care about something like People's Sexiest Man Alive issue.
In one image, Blanco wears a bespoke sequined black suit as he lies barefoot atop a tacky black-and-gold dining table, presenting what appears to be a pair of Taco Bell tostadas.
All the photos are classic Blanco-that is to say, a cross between a Jewish Bob Ross and Liberace if he didn't care about trimming his monobrow-but there's no denying that the dude looks happy and confident.
This is a guy who once described himself as looking like a combo of Danny Devito and André the Giant.
