15 Celebrities with Dadbods to Drool Over

Gone are the days when women yearn for well-sculpted men. What we want now are real men with real bodies who would rather spend time having fun with us rather than lifting weights in the gym the whole day. That’s probably why “dadbod” has become the latest sexy trend in men. Made popular by Leonardo Di Caprio, a dadbod is basically what your average guy has—a belly that enjoys good food and booze, muffin tops that are nice to hug, and biceps that see dumbbells maybe once or twice a month.

Locally, we have recognized the dadbod long before it has become the new “in” thing. We called a man with a dadbod “husky boy” and “TNL (tunay na lalaki).”  It’s the ultimate definition of an attainable man, and in a way, it’s more endearing and less intimidating than muscular dudes. As the TNL Blog has once posted, “Ang tunay na lalaki ay walang abs.” And while there are some decrying the popularity of the dadbod on the argument that women are held to a higher standard than men and that men’s bodies don’t undergo the same physiological changes women’s do after they become parents, we’re big supporters of loving your body (and your man’s body), whatever the shape or form. Let’s just call the appreciation of the dadbod a bit of fun and an appreciation of guys who are confident about their body image.

It isn’t only your pizza-loving partner who sports a dadbod. Many celebrities have inadvertently subscribed to it. Here are a few who manage to rock those pinch-worthy tummies.

1. Leonardo Di Caprio

Ryan Gosling used to be chiseled, but it seems that he truly got into his role of being a new dad  to his daughter with Eva Mendes and got a bit of a tummy. Not that we’re complaining, mind you.

Long before dadbod was cool, actor/comedian/director Jun Sabayton was already a certified “husky boy.” Who can resist that moustache?
