Zinedine Zidane: Is He Hot or Not?
I adore Zinedine Zidane. Do you know him? Affectionately known as Zizou, this Algerian / French adonis is absolutely gorgeous. I mean, just *look* at him. I love men with warm, chestnut brown eyes that are framed with thick, dark eyelashes. And, those lips. Those plump, smooth, kissable, lickable, suckable lips. Yummy. *AND* he has a great body. *AND* he’s super-tall. *AND* he plays soccer. (Soccer players = sexy legs.) Hmmmm …. Sports figures aren’t usually my thing. Too big. Too cocky. But, no, not my sweet, sexy Zidane. Aside from the random (and completely provoked) head butt incident, he strikes me as a comparatively cool, calm, and collected kind of player.
I would give him my 100% Seal of Hottie Approval, but I can’t because he kind of looks a little bit too goofy in some photos. So, he’s a tricky one. Sometimes I think he’s hot. Sometimes not. What’s your opinion? For a moment, forget that he’s losing all of his hair at a rate of 2.35 strands per second and answer this question: Zinedine Zidane: is he hot or not?” (As usual, straight men are encouraged to comment as well; don’t fail me now.)

RELATED SIDENOTE: Soccer player Luca Toni is equally as yummy; feel free to comment on him too.

hehe, although I don’t like Zidane I liked your post. hehe, you kinda described him in an interesting way.
You have a nice blog.
July 11th, 2006 at 3:17 am
He has a nice face – agreed. He gets points taken off for the stubble, though :P
July 11th, 2006 at 3:24 am
Hot.
(kinda reminding me of our Bertuzzi “incident”… whom I have a soft spot for)
July 11th, 2006 at 8:12 am
Arsh: Thanks!!! Glad you like it. :)
K: Oh, but I love stubble. Nobody rocks the stubble better than George Michael did in his 1980’s videos for his Faith album.
Ryann Rain: Another vote for “hot”. YAY!!! :) … By the way, I had to look Betuzzi up on Wikipedia. I don’t watch hockey. Ever. Actually, soccer is the only sport that I follow with any regularity.
July 11th, 2006 at 10:03 am
Zidane is hot, and at least he’s shaving his head so the baldness doesn’t look worse than it is. I knew I should have put money on Italy to win.
July 11th, 2006 at 10:05 am
Yeah, yeah, he’s hot and blah, blah. Except for the at blemish next to his nose. Ha! He’s not perfect! HA!
(Do I sound jealous enough?)
July 11th, 2006 at 12:12 pm
headbutt provoked my ass :P
And even if it was, the guy is a millionair payed for his excellent soccer skills, he shouldve known better.
ciao ciao zizou :D
i thought ladies like cannavaro actually…..
July 11th, 2006 at 1:54 pm
ahm, yes, full support from moi – i do agree, he’s got it ;)
sad about that spaz though…
now the world cup’s over :( and everyone over here is wondering what to do next. an ideas?
July 11th, 2006 at 1:57 pm
have to weigh in with NOT hot, owing to that hideous headbutting incident. i know, i know, the other guy said nasty things about his mother….but surely he could rise above it? or a bit of pushy-shove? what he did was brutal.
ick.
(plus thierry henry is hotter)
July 11th, 2006 at 2:24 pm
Shaved head, ZZ is HAWT. Avec cheveux? Not as much.
Luca Toni? Hot.
BUT HOW DID YOU FORGET MY BELOVED FRANCESCO TOTTI!
Sigh.
July 11th, 2006 at 2:59 pm
Zidane – sometimes hot. I like the Ryan Phillippe thing going on in the photo you posted. Pretty goofy looking in some other pics.
Luca Toni – HOT! HOT! HOT!
July 11th, 2006 at 6:08 pm
Nics: Yeah, I’m a fan of shaved heads. #1. It hides baldness and #2. It feels really S-E-X-Y to run your lips and tongue against them. Tongue ready. ANY BALD VOLUNTEERS???? ;)
Howard: Sweetie, don’t be jealous. We *all* have our unique beauty and talents.
Papigiulio: Yeah, you’re right, he shouldn’t have headbutted him … he should have punched him in the face!!! KIDDING. ;) But, in all seriousness, Materazzi is a jackass; and, further, if FIFA is *REALLY* serious about the “Kick It Out” schpill, I think they should sanction him. I don’t think what Materazzi *said* is any more or less violent than what Zidane *did*. (By the way, if you guys get HBO in Holland now, check out this short special for an American view on the topic.) But, back to Zizou … He was probably under an extreme amount of pressure. And, he let his anger get the best of him. In general, never a good idea. Just ask Wayne Rooney … Okay, sorry for the long tangent on soccer … back to the sport’s hotties … Cannavaro *IS* a cutie, but I think Luca Toni is the hottest player on the Italian National Team. :)
Firefly: I know what you mean. Now that the cup is over, I try to remember: what did I ever do during the weekends when I wasn’t watching soccer?!?!? :)
surly girl: *NOT* hot?!?! Zidane? NO WAY!!!! :) But, I agree with you about Thierry Henry; he is a cutie!! :) And, although I know neither of them personally, Henry kind of *seems* like he’d be a nicer guy than Zidane. Cuter smile. And, plus, Henry is good friends with one of my favorite American filmmakers — Spike Lee.
Sid: D’accord! Zidane looks *much* better without hair. Hmmm … If I had to rank each of the guys listed thus far, I would say: #1. Tie between Zidane / Toni. #3. Henry. #4. Cannavaro. #5. Totti.
MamaChristy: I think I actually DRROOOOLLLED the first time that I saw that picture of Luca Toni. He’s such a cutie.
July 11th, 2006 at 8:03 pm
Not Hot! But, then again, I’m a very contrary person.
July 11th, 2006 at 9:05 pm
Oh Stolie, another thing you could list in your sex hotline resume!
- will spank naughty men
- will lick shaven heads(oo-er!)
I think you’re good to go!
July 11th, 2006 at 9:25 pm
Yeah that was one hot American chick holding up the US flag.
Oh I’m sorry, are we talking about a guy here?
July 11th, 2006 at 10:06 pm
Did not know him, am neutral wrt the hottie factor, but that’s a kickass name.
July 12th, 2006 at 12:23 am
Zizou just so so, Luca Toni – HOT HOT HOT HOT!!!!
whewwwwwie!
July 12th, 2006 at 12:56 am
Zidane = pretty hot, Toni = so-so (I think it’s the eyes perhaps, but for some reason something puts me off)
However, I find it hard to find people exceptionally hot unless I know them personally, except for a few famous faces here and there that I can’t help drooling over, so although they’re hot they’re not… hmm I need a good word… droolworthy? for me.
July 12th, 2006 at 8:47 am
Carlos: Oooh, that’s *2* votes for “not hot”.
Nics: Hmmm … maybe I should really consider this afterall! :)
Raymond: You’re funny.
belledame222: Yeah, it’s great isn’t it? It’s Arabic (زين الدين زيدان) for “the ladies love to love me” :) … Actually, I think it means “ornament of the faith” [Zinedine] “grows the faith” [Zidane].
E & Kypris: You guys have exactly the opposite view. One thinks Zizou is so-so and Toni is a hottie. The other thinks just the opposite. You probably have different tastes in men. :) And, by the way … Kypris, I *LOVE* the word “droolworthy” so much that I’m going to use it in tomorrow’s post. :) Angelina Jolie: Droolworthy or Not?
July 12th, 2006 at 12:40 pm
He was handsome as hell but now is the ugliest man on Earth. Now I look at him and all I see is a brutish lout. Unless the other player pulled a shank out of his kneesocks and threatened to whack off ZZ’s testicles, that heatbutt was beyond uncalled for.
July 12th, 2006 at 10:50 pm
Materazzi? Is that you?!?!?! How did you hack into the lovely missbhavens’ blog account?!?!?! ;)
July 13th, 2006 at 11:11 am
hey…
zidane….mmm ur rite abt the lips..
lol
cool blog..
July 13th, 2006 at 4:45 pm
Yep, he has very very sexy lips! :)
July 14th, 2006 at 5:34 pm
i agree, he is hot.
zizou is handsome.
July 14th, 2006 at 5:36 pm
He’s not handsome; he’s *GORGEOUS*!! :)
July 14th, 2006 at 8:28 pm
Sexy sexy sexy with his shaved head..
July 14th, 2006 at 10:00 pm
OK…folks…I absolutely ADORE him! I think he’s so sexy! Balding, shaved, whatever…although the shaved head really gets me going. Zidane (love the name too) is just so elegant. You watch him play football and it’s like he’s dancing (I can only imagine what it would be like being intimate with him!) And those amazing, soulful eyes and chiseled face! And most importantly, despite the headbutt, he just comes off as a genuinely good, elegant person. I watched his French interview when he explained what happened, and I was just so captivated. Sigh…I wish I could meet him and that he wasn’t married…She’s a lucky gal…Anyways, cool site. I’m a fellow New Yorker from Brooklyn
July 15th, 2006 at 2:15 am
sarah: Isn’t he?! :) Zidane looks even hotter without hair. Besides, I love men who shave it bald!! :)
NIikki: YAY!!!!! Fellow New Yorker. Fellow Zidane lover. Welcome to the blog!!! :)

Hi
Zinedine Zidane isnt just hot, he’s utter sex. There is something about watching him do the roulette and virtually laughing in the faces of defenders that always does it for me. The shaved head is good too, much better than the monk look. He’ll always be top of my wish list, along with about 15 others ;)
He could headbutt me anytime ;)

Livy, I completely agree with you!!! :)
[insert Jay's comment about Zidane giving "good head".]
August 9th, 2006 at 5:34 pm
Sex on legs..;-)
August 9th, 2006 at 6:34 pm
I certainly wouldn’t bar him from my vagina. :)
January 8th, 2007 at 5:04 pm
Hes hot
January 8th, 2007 at 5:18 pm
Sorry, we would like to add a little more…
Zinedine Zidane is absolute sex on legs. He was the hottest thing that ever hit football (and scumbag materazzi), he was the only reason i watched football, which I like to call fuckball now because it is so shit without zidane.
Why the minge doesn’t he do modelling and exploit himself more, you get all these ugly bastards plastered everywhere when u didnt even ask for them. uhh we will never get enough of Zidane and anyways his head head is super sexy, i would suck on it cos a bald head is like the solar panel of a sex machine. Now that hes retired form fuckball I think that zidane should get into films, music, modelling, porn and all that jazz- WE JUST DONT GET ENOUGH OF HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
November 24th, 2007 at 12:29 pm
Sex on legs. LOVE IT!!!! :-)
December 4th, 2007 at 6:07 pm
A major part of ZZ’s appeal is that he refuses to exploit himself, and that he doesn’t give a damn about any of the hype. The head-butt was so out of character. Check out his work against poverty. Zinedane Zidane is incomparable in so many ways. A North African Kabale prince. And yes he is utterly gorgeous, utterly sexy.
December 5th, 2007 at 1:34 am
Ahh, the headbutt …
I was in Little Italy watching the World Cup with a bunch of friends. When the headbutt thing happened, I literally *GASPED*, turned to my friend and quickly said, “That’s not like Zidane at all.” (As if we were old lovers or something.)
Man, I’m soooo in love with Zidane’s face & body. :)
December 8th, 2007 at 4:24 pm
Godalmighty! is there any doubt? he is a walking, talking orgasm!! he is BEYOND HOT!!! he is off the charts!! he is so sexy and has so much magnetism that i feel like i just got pregnant by looking at his picture!!
December 8th, 2007 at 4:31 pm
Well, I thought I was the only one who considered Zizou to be the sexiest man that ever walked on a football pitch but now that I see I’m not:
Gosh! The picture above is one of my all time favorite pictures! It’s one of the first “He looks like a sex god, not human, fuck, I want his babies!” pictures of whom there are so many now that he has shaved his hair off. Heck, who cares that he’s married, everybody deserves a piece of his gorgeous body! I take the hands by the way. and if someone is willed to let me have the eyes as well, I won’t complain.
December 8th, 2007 at 7:40 pm
@ talia: [still giggling at "walking, talking orgasm" comment. ;) ]
@ magician: I WANT THE EYES!!!!!!!!! :)
May 3rd, 2008 at 9:33 pm
Yeesssss…. Zidane is HOT, very hot, it makes me melt, but than again he’s got pure arab blood running in his veins, that says it all.
May 3rd, 2008 at 10:01 pm
No such thing as pure whatever, but I totally agree that he’s HOT!! :)
