The nerdy heartthrob poses with Christina Ricci at the Tribeca screening of Speed Racer.
I, for one, don’t see the appeal here. There seems to be a huge trend of the new heartthrobs being these kind of nerdy boys. It just doesn’t work for me. I like the traditional leading man — tall, dark and handsome. Is that so wrong? Is crushing on classically hot dudes passe now?
And Christina Ricci is all of five feet tall. Granted, she’s wearing heels, but there’s just no way this guy is taller than 5’4″ or so. His stats, on assorted websites, say he’s either 5’6″ or 5’7″, but I am calling bullshit. There’s no way. Christina Ricci is a fucking midget, and he just barely stands taller than her. This guy is 5’4″.
I hear you on the looking nerdy thing but watch the movie “Into the Wild” and you will fall in love with this guy. He is extremly sexy in the movie. Trust me on this one.
all men who aren’t very tall say they are taller :D it’s just like that…and i don’t see the appeal here either..i am also for tall, dark and handsome :D
he looks like he has a giant head in this picture.
mostly because he got REALLY skinny, he is underweight…not sure if he still is now. He had to for the movie “Into the Wild” so as of late, his head looks huge cuz his body is so small.
She is wearing heels too though.. take that into account.
Have you seen him in Lords of Dogtown? Not a great movie, but in the end he like shaves his head and gets all badass, it’s pretty sweet.
I’m not one for short guys (I’m 5’9″), but as long as I don’t have to stand next to them it’s all good, I can love.
I agree that you’ll understand his hotness if you’ve seen Into The Wild.
Emile is in fact 5’6″ by his own admission. He is often self-depreciating about his height. In a recent interview, he said of his co-star, Christina; “she’s one of the few people in the world that I am taller than.” :)
I find he looks like Leo Dicaprio.
He’s got geek feet. Ugh, I worked in a place that was full of computer engineers, they all stand that way. I believe there is a geek gene. They all have that bad walk (not heel-toe but they walk on the balls of their feet), they usually have geek eyes and they stand pigeon toed (or reverse pigeon toed). You can take them to Hugo Boss, dress them up nice, get a good haircut but there will still be something off.
Height doesn’t bother me. I’m 5’6″, I don’t care if a guy is 5’6″, I’m still going to wear heels. But of course I’m married so I guess it’s all completely a moot point.
Who? What? Where?
i looooove the nerdy boys- thick glasses, lean hips, skinny jeans, white shirt and black tie…i’ll take it all. but this guy? no. no, thank you.
and i, too, thought it was a young grungy leo dicaprio here…
he is so NOT sexy in Into the Wild. Sorry! WRONG! I don’t like these feminized dudes at all. It’s not the shortness necessarily (although I love me some tall) or the nerdiness. It’s the softness. Ugh. Gives me the shivers and soooo not in a good way.
Geeky guys are pathetically grateful to get laid and much less likely to have a sexually transmitted disease.
No, I agree. I think he was hot in Into the Wild. I’d say 5’5″, he looks about an inch or two taller than her in what are probably 3 or 4 inch heels
I ::heart:: him. He’s taller than me, I’m only 5’3, so he can tower over me.
emile is hot, esp when he cleans himself up a little http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/6466/001pn0.jpg
I fell in love with him in the movie into the wild!
Ewww….this guy is NOT HOT. Bluuuuuuaaaaahhhhhhh
But I toally love the soft, sweet guys. And I LOVE short boys. Hott.
Beet, sorry, love your site, but after your professions of lust for Adam Duritz I take all your opinions of men/hotness with a huge grain of salt! Emile is small, but handsome. Adam may be a nice guy, but exactly how is he “classically hot”?
oh people, let’s do the math here….
she’s 5’1″ wearing at the least 3″ heels = 5’4″
look at the picture, he is at least 2, most likely 3 inches taller than she is. = 5’6″ or 5’7″
sheesh and i thought i was bad at math….
he is kinda bent over and stuff also… but yeah. he’s pretty odd.
actually no i take that back. i had another look at the photo, he’s not bent over at all.
try this if you like them cleaner:

says the girl who crushes on adam duritz. hmmm
christina ricci has a melon head.
Oh my gosh emile is totally cute his face reminds me of a younger ryan phillippe kinda
Yeah, I’ve already caught onto your serious, serious nerd hate, Beet. You basically felt that all the tech journalists at the Consumer Electronics Show last January were incredibly leprous, if I remember correctly.
Her heels are probably about 4 inches tall. So if she’s 5 ft it makes sense he’d be 5’7.
Plus he’s hot. I think every girl who ever watched Girl Next Door probably has a crush on him.
he is sooooooooo hot! i love nerdy guys. watch into the wild, and i think your opinion will change!!
There is far too much estrogen on this website lately.
On behalf of the straight males I feel it my duty to say something crude:
Christina looks pretty good in this photo. I would gladly pick her up and spin her around like a propeller.
(although I think she looked a lot better when she was heavier)
He looks like Taylor Hanson in this picture. Never a bad thing.
I am not in love with him but I am in love with her. She is so gorgeous!!
They’re sort of a cute couple….for little people.
Me! Me! Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I’ve liked him for years, he is very (very very very) good looking & a great actor! He was wonderful in all of his movies…Into The Wild (of course) Girl Next Door, Imaginary Heroes, & of course, Alpha Dog! HUMINA HUMINA HUMINA! ♥
Anyone who doesn’t want him-Give him to me!!! =)
He’s hot in the films, but he’s not so made up when he’s off screen. I miss Cary Grant and the like though :(
He’s not over 5’4” at all! I actually got a chance to meet him not too long ago at a bar in San Francisco. He is adorable in person, but lacks in the height department. I am a short girl myself, barely making 5’4” and he was my height or a bit shorter. I was actually very surprised!
He may be short but he is extremely sexy. He is such a great actor you just have to fall in love with him!! I know i did!!!
omg are you guys insane! emile is the hottest guy everrrrr. so this isnt his best pictures find any other picture of him and he’s gorgeous. i can like rarely find a bad picture of him. and he is soo not a nerd either. just because he is wearing glasses in the picture you think he’s a nerd. wow steriotypical. he is sooo hot in lords of dogtown, into the wild when he shaves, and the girl next door. well all i know is he’s hot and i loveee him…sorry u guys dont
uh…this photo does him no justice, he is extremely gorgeous….in into the wild…and even in speed racer, he’s like the gentle, young boy you want to rip the pants off, he id DEAD SEXY
im only 5’3 so shut up
im hot but im short cuz im latino im only 5’4 (read my name)
fuck yall im texan and gay
yeah watch The Girl Next Door and your mind will be immediately changed. he plays a nerd, yes, but a hugely awesome and attractive one at that. And he buffed up gooood for Into The Wid. not nerdy at all.
Lords Of Dogtown he is also quite good. Although I am not a fan of him when he has long hair I still did enjoy him in this and think he looked quite good.
Looks aside he i still an amazing actor.
Over all, i recommend Into The Wild if you are not yet in love with him.
YES I AGREE HE IS LIKE LEONARDO DICAPRIO IN HIS EARLY YEARS! I WATCHED ROMEO AND JULIET TODAY AND IMMEDIATELY THOUGHT IT. Also, the link that ‘sarah’ posted in her comment has to be one of the most beatiful photos of him ever. whenever i see it i swoon.
It doesn’t matter how tall he is.He’s still a cute.The appeal here besides just looks is that this guy seems completely humble and relatable,not all glitz and glam.It also doesn’t hurt that he’s completely talented and if you’ve ever watched some of his interviews pretty amusing too!
emile is so hot he does look a bit nerdy but see what hes got under his shirt trust me i know i have been out with him and also he is a good kissa and his p**is is great to bad he dumped me he shouls see me know to bad emile you made a bad choice
Seriously ppl, hello!?@? we’re all missing the point…there are a lot of good looking actors but can they act?!?!? Emile happens to be a great up and coming actor. I AM so tired of ppl obsessed with looks. Hilary Duff is pretty but that doesn’t make her a goos actress. the same applies to like justin timberlake doesn’t make him a good actor! I’d rather watch him on screen and no he is going to give 100% then some of crap stuff these people have been putting out. not too mention that he is extremely down to earth, not snobby, superficial. SO WHAT HE ISN’T TALL. get over yourselves seriously. He might be really a really good guy, ready to be the one instead of these hollywood whores like John mayer….its about what a person is like. Thats why so many of these actor are snobs we feed there ego and they snub themselves at us………….lastly his beautiful.
I love him, that’s enough for me =)
He’s really, really adorable, actually. This is one of the worst pictures I’ve ever seen of him, actually. I’m only 5′, so the short guys are good for me. LOVE Emile Hirsch no matter how goofy he looks. :D
I find him irresistibly adorable.
He’s adorable I LOVE HIM<33333 and he’s hot in lords of dogtown! with his long blonde hair omg. adorable :) and he does a lot of good movies too. I LOVE YOU EMILE HIRSCH! <3
this man is perfection.
i’m unconditionally obsessed with emile hirsch ever since ‘into the wild’.
his height doesn’t bother me because he’s just so beautiful
you must be blind.
this admittedly isn’t a good photo though.
LOVE EMILE HIRSCH
