The Hottest Bachelors in History: Where Does Matt James Rank?

Free Britney Andrew Firestone

With Matt James ready to make history on ABC, it’s almost time to talk about The Bachelor spoilers … but also this:

Which Bachelor is the #1 hottest of all time!?

‘Cause, even if ABC does scour the Earth for eligible dudes who are the total package, that’s still a real debate.

And subjective, we know. But a fun one!

For those keeping score, Matt is the star of The Bachelor‘s 25th season, making him the 24th Bachelor of all time.

(Brad Womack famously got two cracks at the job … and yet didn’t get a happily ever, or even close, after either).

Obviously, Matt is the first black Bachelor, and the franchise’s second black lead overall, following Rachel Lindsay.

The show’s low-key racism and how it needs to handle Matt’s 2021 season are topics that will be debated at length.

But we’re glad he’s the new leading man of the franchise, and today we’re just here for pointless fun in his honor.

Gaze at the ghosts of Bachelors past, see for yourself who’s the hottest of the hot and where you’d rank Matt.

24. Matt Grant

Matt Grant is, if you couldn’t immediately tell, British. He’s the first (and only) British Bachelor, in fact. Amazingly, he gave his final rose to none other than Shayne Lamas. They were then engaged for like 40 minutes before she upgraded BIGLY to celebrity gossip blogging legend, scholar and entrepreneur Nik Richie.

23. Lorenzo Borghese

If there were a Bachelor, and season of The Bachelor, that left less than a memorable impression, it might have to be Lorenzo Borghese. He is eminently forgettable. But he’s not exactly hard to look upon.

Is Andrew Firestone a contender for Hottest Bachelor Ever? Maybe. Do you remember that he was actually on The Bachelor? Less-convincing maybe.

21. Bob Guiney

Bachelor Bob Guiney starred in Season 4 of the ABC hit. No, seriously, he did. Guy was kind of a turkey TBH.

20. Charlie O’Connell

Not to be confused with his brother Jerry O’Connell, who’s starred on things like Sliders, Scream 2, and Crossing Jordan, Charlie O’Connell once starred on the ABC show.

19. Byron Velvick

The bass-fishing Byron Velvick had the outdoorsy thing going for him in Season 7, that’s for sure. He got engaged to Mary Delgado, with whom he had a tumultuous relationship.

The Bachelor Stars Ranked: Which Hunk is the Hottest?

Free Britney Andrew Firestone

With Peter Weber’s time as The Bachelor winding down, it’s time again to talk about The Bachelor spoilers … but also this:

Which Bachelor is the #1 hottest of all time!?

After all, even if ABC does scour the Earth for eligible dudes who are the total package … not all hunks are created equal.

For those keeping score, Peter is the star of The Bachelor‘s 24th season on ABC, making him the 23rd Bachelor of all time.

(Brad Womack famously got two cracks at the main event … and yet didn’t get a happily ever, or even close, after either).

Obviously, not everyone in the Bachelor Nation is totally agreed on who’s hot and who’s not. Such things are subjective.

But hey, that’s why pointless debates are fun.

Take a look at the ghosts of Bachelors past and see for yourself who’s the hottest of the hot and where you’d rank Pete.
