Ten Hairy Hippies That Do Inexplicably Well With The Ladies
Posted by Defamer Hollywood at 5:30 AM on August 7, 2008
They're one of Hollywood's most glorious odd couples: pixie dream girl Natalie Portman and Manson-resembling folk singer Devendra Banhart. Still, despite the fact that Portman was game enough to appear as an octopus in one of Banhart's videos, she still can't seem to shake those naysayers clucking, "Is she really going out with him?" She is — and she's hardly the first fresh-scrubbed starlet to fall for a charming, soap-eschewing bohemian. With the help of Molly McAleer, we've put together a Top Ten list of the world's most loved-up hippie womanizers. Is it their devil-may-care facial hair, their free love attitudes, or their penchant for sharing necklaces that draws in Hollywood's most beautiful ingenues? Burn some incense and meditate on the subject — we'll be out back crafting a swingset out of hemp and spit.

They're one of Hollywood's most glorious odd couples:

Other than Benicio and Jesus, I would hit none of these hairy, repulsive, smelly hippies.

Yuck. Not good looking to me at all. I would just keep thinking about how hairy they must be elsewhere. And Danny Matherson (sp?) - I don't think he really belonged in that group. He's cute and doesn't have THAT much hair.

I got bored in the middle of that video. Thank the good Lord i stuck it out until the end.
Also, Russel Brand does well with the ladies because he's incredibly smart, funny and charming. How most of the other dirty hippies do it is beyond me.

Can you really count Adrien Grenier as a Hairy Hippy? He's more like a Metrosexual Wookie.

@MissHathaway: I've got to say I do think Adrian Grenier and Benecio Del Toro are hot. And Danny Masterson is pretty likeable. The rest aren't gross, but I really don't get the appeal.

Well, Devendra, Russell, Dave, Adrian, Benicio and Jesus all fall into the category of dark-haired/light-eyed beautiful men so we can forgive a beard or stray lock. And I think Danny Masterson has only been successful with one girl, Bijou Phillips, and her dad was a dirty hippie so maybe that explains the matchup.

I don't identify as hippie but I am mildly offended on their behalf for claiming Danny Masterson is a hippie. He's a Scientologist, for hot Jesus' sake. Those people hate WEED. It ain't right. I usually like the dirty bearded type but all the ones you mentioned make me want to swear off sex forever. Devendra looks like he has clammy skin; I hate that.
I agree that Natalie allowing Gabriel Garcia Bernal to slip her grasp is firm proof of idiocy. If I were her I'd have three of his babies and be living on the beach in Mexico.

@NotCoolEnough: @NoWireHangers: You're right about the song being by Girl Talk, but its called Bounce That and its off his previous album Night Ripper. Sorry, i just went GirlTalk overload at one point in my life.
now is it just me, or do chris robinson and kate hudson look related? hmm..

Holy Crap. I found all of those guys reasonably attractive. I had a huge crush on Dave Navarro when I was 15, though now he looks very tweezed.
I love hairy mean. Bearded and furry is best for me. My fiance cuts down our heating bills with the added insulation he has.

wow. I'd never even heard of Adrian Grenier before. His EYES. omg. I could ignore that furry face just to look into those eyes.
*le swoon, le sigh*
Not to say that I don't like beards. I think they're very masculine and actually appealing on some men. Can't go for the ZZ Top thing, but a shorter, trimmed and clean beard isn't so bad.

Actually, if this theory was true, that Geico caveman show on ABC would have done huge ratings with the broads. (And don't give me shit about the writing being lame; all of those guys have put out some lame material... I mean, 1st Corinthians? Puh-leeeeze.)

How in the WORLD did you forget Vincent Gallo?

He is the perfect embodiment of what you speak of, crazy eyes and everything.

I must be losing it, I'm finding Devendra Banhart attractive. I don't get it. The hairy reality tv guy, don't know his name, has lovely eyes, the rest do nothing for me, Jesus included.

I am sorry, but there was a bit of douche in that clip!
Forgive me but Chris Robinson is very unattractive and definitely not mating material (Exhibit A. - His spawn).
I'll bang Benicio, Russell Brand even though he looks like he needs a bath with clorox..
Devandra Barnhardt is all shades of weird and Dave Navarro just encapsulates an antihero battling all sorts of STDs.. I need a penicillin bath stat!!
