I’m getting ready to move, and my book collection is all packed, so I can’t read anything this week. So, I’ll combine my two favorite things: countdown lists and horndogging on male celebs.
Best YA Boy Toys, Part one:
10. Jeffrey French, Sweet Valley High; okay, so he makes it on this list from sheer comparison. He’s not as annoying as Todd, he and Liz fight about 2% less, and he actually has some valid interests (photography) and can be rational when Liz gets mad at him. I’m kind of ignoring the whole situation when he reinvented himself as DJ Jazzy Jeff.
Celeb who would play him:
MPG!
9. Pete Stone, Sleepover Friends; feeling kind of weird having a fifth grader on here, but it’s not like I said “hottest boys” or something like that. Pete was man enough to talk to girls like real people and be cool with talking to them. He did have a fling with Jenny Carlin, but then went back to liking Lauren again. No idea why, she’s got zero personality.
Celeb who would play him:
Cody Linley! Holy shit why do I know who this person is!
8. Trevor Sandbourne, Baby-Sitters Club. We don’t really know much about him, but with a name like that, how can you go wrong? He took Claudia to a couple of dances, but I think early on he prank-called her. Oh well.
Celeb who would play him:
One of the Jonas Brothers. I think he’s the oldest.
7. Ernie from Breaking Up With Ernie. This book is kind of obscure, but it’s about this girl who finds her boyfriend Ernie so annoying, she tries everything to break up with him, only to find when he breaks up with her, she wants him back. Supposed to be slapstick, came off more as the gal’s a beyotch and Ernie is just lovable.
Who would play him:
Seth Rogan (xoxoxoxo)
6. Damien from The Vampire Diaries, because he’s the bad guy and way more exciting than that boring Eurotrash Stefan. At least he did something about the gal he wanted, instead of mopey Stefan.
Who would play him:
Louis Garrel: ooh la la!
Stay tuned for the top 5!
Aaah, I love your site! You inspired me to write my own a month or so ago – combining SVH with Enid Blyton. What a combo.
Around a week ago I just did my own casting for SVH – I think I was too kind though. Keep it up I love it!
I adore Jeffrey French!! He is totes cooler than stupid Todd!
Now who would play Todd in a movie?
Yes to Damien! I hope Nick from The Secret Circle makes it into top 5, he was so much better than Adam.
Oops, I mean Damon. Is it Damon or Damien?
I hate that I know this, but that’s the middle Jonas brother, Joe.
haha yeah thats what I was going to say.
Kevin is the oldest.
And yeah, I hate that I know that!!
Almost forgot about Trever Sandbourne, my BsC memories are a little vague now.
I sure worry more that you know who Cody Linley is than the Jonas Brothers…you have to live in a shell to not know them
Natalie, if it helps, I know that too and I’m just as ashamed. The Disney Channel is like crack to me – lame, boring crack.
<3 Seth Rogen! Throw that Ernie guy my way.
I hate to admit it, but I actually really like the Jonas Brothers! I can never remember who is who, though.
The kid from Sleepover Friends is Pete Stone.
I have no idea who 90% of these boys are. God, I’m old. Just throw me some Classic Edition Michael Hutchence and I am outta here.
Isn’t Pete Black also from the BSC???
“Classic Edition Michael Hutchence ”
MMMMMmmmmmm…
And I presume that William Zabka will be making an entrance in the top five, ihatewheat?
Best wishes for a seamless, angst-free move, ihatewheat — hope everything goes smoothly!
i’d forgotten there was a pete black in sleepover friends as well as the bsc. also, so much love for seth rogen.
you are right, Pete Stone is the one from Sleepover Friends.
Um hell yes, there will be some Zabka. Don’t forget, there are also the WORST YA boys to make a list for.
and shame on you who know the names of the Jonas Brothers.
Who is that Cody guy?
…..and a Jonas guy as Trevor? Ewww…..
Lol at MPG as Jeffery!!!
Jeffrey AND Damon, woot!
Breaking Up with Ernie!! I remember that book!!! I read it in like 5th or 6th grade. I remember thinking it was hilarious.
Haha, thats hilarious. Jeffery French reminds me of a soggy dish towel.
I love Jeffery French, he’s my 2nd fav SV boy. Next to Bruce Patman, natch. Oh and the fact that he’d be played by my Zacky makes me too happy
Jeffrey French #10? Come on he has to be top 5! In terms of boy toy material, He was always described at having a very muscular physique, and in terms of personality he did every single thing I always hear my female friends complaining about that they DON’T get from their own boyfriends!
can’t wait to see the rest though. good show.
and when you’re done, get crackin’ on a hottest babes list! I need eye candy, too!
Louis Garrel. Hello, ding dong ) goodness i enjoyed the dreamers.
Me too, tatsu! Naked Louis Garrel and naked Michael Pitt…I’d hole up in a Paris apartment with them any day!
omg luuurrrve the Dreamers. I’d hole up with all of you then try to kill us with gas from the stove when our parents came home to find us.
I’m kind of over Michael Pitt but Luis…dayum.
My #1 would be Michael from the Final Friends series. I love that character.
