Why “Hot Dwarves” Are Actually a Thing: Aidan Turner and Dean O’Gorman Edition!
So, here’s the deal: Aidan Turner, in all his smoldering glory, became an absolute heartthrob as Kili in *The Hobbit*, right? But if we’re being completely honest—who doesn’t find him and his bro Dean O’Gorman (you know, Fili?) to be even more attractive as dwarves? Seriously, those beards work wonders! I mean, who thought chubby cheeks and muscular little stouts could steal the show like they did? It’s like the destiny of Middle-Earth was to throw a bazillion hot dwarves our way. You’re definitely not the only one thinking, “Wait a minute, I’m feeling some kind of way about these pint-sized warriors.”
But let’s take a moment to consider the serious eye candy here. Aidan Turner, first popping on our radar as the gorgeously troubled vampire in *Being Human*, scurried straight into our hearts as Kili, didn’t he? And his transition from handsome hunk to the cheeky, sword-wielding dwarf was a masterclass in identifiable attractiveness. Watching him don that armor and swing those axes? Hello, can you say swoon? But let’s not forget Dean O’Gorman, who while he might have portrayed the more responsible and sophisticated Fili, is equally swoon-worthy, especially if you’re into the rugged type.
After discovering they were both part of the *Being Human* universe, fans found themselves diving deep into their backstories. And boy oh boy, did they strike gold! Ever watched *The Almighty Johnsons*? Dean’s character might be hilariously obnoxious, but if you can handle that charm, you might just fall head over heels for him too. Plus, did you know he’s a fantastic photographer? So, if you’re not already, you may want to follow him on Twitter to get glimpses of his life and work, which as far as we know, includes not only his dog Batman but also hilarious personal stories, like getting stuck in a mailbox!
Speaking of throwbacks, how many people were *obsessed* with Dean as Iolaus? We are talking about teenage crushes at their finest! If nostalgia hits hard, remember he rocked that early 2000s energy like nobody’s business, providing some epic nostalgic feels along the way. And let’s be honest; they’re both total goofballs. Two genuine guys. They’ve been out there supporting LGBTQ+ rights and tend to channel their inner 12-year-olds while goofing around!
