We’re Off To See The Rizzard! The Hottest Men Who We Got Got By In 2023
It has come to our attention that some of our readers aren’t chronically online, so the term “rizz” may have passed your notice. That’s alright, thankfully it’s been crowned the Oxford Dictionary word of the year for 2023 so there’s now an official definition.
Okay, quick rundown: Rizz is short for charisma (apparently) and defines someone’s game. How good they are at flirting. How attractive they are to others. How good they are at closing (if you get what we mean). It’s slang by Twitch streamer and YouTuber Kai Cenat that has proliferated in online spaces.
There are many great examples of rizz so, being us, we have decided to compile our list of the men with the best game!
Rizzle me this! The men who were rizzing and jizzing their way through 2023
Despite what some may think, you don’t actually have to be that good-looking to have rizz. Charm, personality and humour really make up the bulk of the meaning, not that these men aren’t gorgy.
Josh Hutcherson
This may be one that missed your radar if you’re not into The Hunger Games or on TikTok but Josh has had a major renaissance of late with fans reigniting their old passions for the young star. He was recently featured in Five Nights At Freddy’s and 57 Seconds, which helped stoke the flames. Also, have you seen him dance? Man has rizz.
Pedro Pascal
Known for massive roles in Game Of Thrones, The Last Of Us and The Unbearable Weight Of Massive Talent, Pedro Pascal has had the internet by the throat for a number of years. Sweet, funny and hot! It’s a no brainer this daddy made it onto a list of men who got that rizz.
Bad Bunny
“Be careful mami…”
With that one single line, pop star Bad Bunny melted hearts. If you don’t know what we’re talking about, it’s in reference to his viral Instagram story from earlier this year. Bad Bunny was with Kendall Jenner on a hike and uttered this line. He was already a mega-hot hunk but his tenderness hit us like an eighteen-wheeler truck. We didn’t know we were watching the Rizzard Of Oz, but there we go.
Henry Cavill
We wonder whether the Man Of Steel is hard everywhere… Henry Cavill is best known for Justice League, The Witcher, The Tudors and for being the internet’s husband. Whether it’s his charming red carpet interviews, those piercing heterochromia eyes or the British accent, he’s successfully rizzed us up.
Troye Sivan
Sweet like marabou. Indeed!
Troye has had so many iconic moments this year, starting with his Rush music video… need we say more on that. The Got Me Started music video was a whole other story, sampling one of the most iconic dance/electric songs of the 2010s (Shooting Stars) and showing us his whole butt, we thought it couldn’t get wilder. Then, Troye dropped One Of Your Girls, and it was O.V.E.R. When you’ve got straight men questioning their sexuality, who could possibly say you aren’t the rizzmaster?
Manu Rios
Manu has been on lists of the hottest guys since, like, 2016 and yet he remains firmly in place with no ops in sight! His role in Elite really did it for us gays and we’re still not over it. In the words of Troye Sivan, “Face card! No cash, no credit.” Most of the time we aren’t even speaking the same language as Manu. Thankfully rizz is universal.
Tom Blyth
How can someone make one of cinema’s most hateful characters hot? Oh, by looking the way Tom Blyth does, of course. His breakout role in Hunger Games: The Ballad Of Songbirds And Snakes launched Tom into stardom and straight on into our hall of jizz, er, rizz. If you made someone who slaughters children for entertainment hot, then we gotta give you your flowers (roses are President Snow’s favourite if we recall correctly).
Mawaan Rizwan
I mean, c’mon guys, Rizz is LITERALLY in his name. This British actor and comedian began on YouTube but has gone mainstream. Not only does he have a face that should be framed in the Louvre, he’s funny in that, fall in love with your best friend kind of way. If you’re not familiar with Rizwan, get familiar. You’re welcome.
Lil Nas X
Is there anything sexier than a bisexual who does not give one single f–? Thought not. Lil Nas X has been on our radar for years and he’s kept on it by trolling his followers and haters in the most scandalous – and hilarious – ways. He’s talented, hot and funny. The gays that get it, get it. The gays that don’t, will never. But that’s alright, more for us!
