(Not about language.)

Tim Evanson reminds me that actor/model Josh Duhamel was, like Kellan Lutz, born in North Dakota, and notes that Duhamel has posed in a full-frontal shot; Duhamel nude, rear and front, in excellent photos by Greg Gorman from his 2000 book As I See It, can be viewed on AZBlogX, here. Now two shots of him merely shirtless (and not so artfully posed):

  (#1)

  (#2)

Merely shirtless in the first, with his package visible in the second.

Mostly his photos show him charming and smiling, with a nice swimmer’s body (slim and muscular, but not bulked up by training, and with merely human pecs and abs). From Wikipedia:

Joshua David “Josh” Duhamel … is an American actor and former fashion model. He first achieved acting success in 1999 as Leo du Pres on ABC’s All My Children and later as the chief of security, Danny McCoy, on NBC’s Las Vegas. He then began appearing in films, most prominently playing one of the protagonists, Captain/Major/Lieutenant Colonel William Lennox, in the box office hit Transformers as well as its sequels…

Duhamel was born in Minot, North Dakota [November 14, 1972, so he’s now 40]. His mother, Bonnie L. Kemper, is a physical education teacher, and his father, Larry Duhamel, is an advertising salesman. He is of French-Canadian, Irish, English, German, and Norwegian ancestry. Duhamel was raised Catholic.

His parents divorced during his youth. Although he remains close to both, he grew up with his mother and his three younger sisters, Ashlee, Mckenzee, and Kassidy. Duhamel attended Minot State University and played as the back-up quarterback for the university’s football team.
