Alan Cumming is full of awesome!

He’s one of those fellows with a bright, sweet face that you can’t help but smile at. Ridiculously talented and accomplished – and just so dang cute – the charming stage, TV and film actor, model, Tony Award-winner (to name but one award of many) and new Masterpiece Mystery! host Alan Cumming speaks with PopMatters 20 Questions about Dionysus, the prudency of using prophylactics, and Leon, the singing Chihuahua.

1. The latest book or movie that made you cry?
I’ve been flying a lot recently and I always cry while watching movies on planes and while reading books on planes. I think it must be something to do with the air pressure or perhaps the potential imminent death, or else the free booze. Whatever.

I cried while watching Enchanted and also while reading The Great Gatsby, which my friend Joey had given me because we were driving in Long Island recently and he mentioned it and I confessed I had never read it. I also cried at a documentary about a millionaire going to a poor area of London and giving money to an impoverished community center.

Sexy Guys!

I told Mycah I’d be snagging this, so I finally am. I tried not to duplicate the guys she picked, but I simply had to include a few of them because they are so awesome. On to the list (in alphabetical order)…

Alan Cumming
Is he perfectly perfect? No. Does it matter? No. He’s Scottish, he can sing and he can act and he looks fabulous doing every single bit of it. He also just seems like a genuinely cool guy. If you have any doubt of his hotness, you should watch the little sex scene between Alan and Daniela Sea in season 3 of The L Word because dayum!
