Diego Boneta looks cute on screen, but in person a whole other layer of hotness is revealed; he’s like a damn onion. Diego is a 21 year-old Latin singer and actor who secured one of the lead roles in Rock of Ages. He’s already a heartthrob in the Latin community, but he’s about to go mainstream.

Diego kind of looks like the love child of Matt Dillon and Matthew McConaughey, only so much hotter. Diego’s hair looks lighter in person than it does in photos, his eyelashes are longer, his muscles are bigger, his teeth are whiter, his a*s is rounder… and I’d like to think that everything else that should be big is also much bigger in person!

He plays Julianne Hough‘s musician boyfriend in the upcoming film adaptation of the popular musical. Born in Mexico, Diego speaks Spanish and English fluently but he’s worked hard on losing his accent entirely. What I’d love for him to lose is his shorts and shirt, but these pics will have to do for now.
