5 Things to Love about Jared Leto ...

Jared is 38. That's right, 38. And he looks like THAT. I have mentioned here many times that I think he has found the fountain of youth. I'm not sure if this is a latest photo but really, he looks so much younger than his age. On top of that amazing fact, he is just downright beautiful. Don't you just love his eyes? When he had blond hair, he looked as beautiful as Kurt Cobain did.

I guess it helps that he's a lacto-ovo vegetarian and that he's into many sports. He loves to hike, snowboard, and skateboard. I wonder if he has a nutritionist and trainer. He probably does, considering the many abuses his body has received due to his film career.

Some girls are naturally drawn to musicians. If you are one of these girls, Jared being the lead vocalist of the band 30 Seconds to Mars should be a good thing. He is also a songwriter and rhythm guitarist of the band.

Now I am not really into musicians but I admit I have a weakness for the artsy guys. How perfect is it that Jared Leto considers painting one of his hobbies? I will be extra-psyched if I can see some work he's done. If you know any or has images, please tell us by leaving a comment or two.

One of the first drug-related movies I watched and loved was Requiem for a Dream. If you have not seen this movie, you should. Jared is amazing on it. Jared was good as Jordan Catalano on My So-Called Life but on Requiem for a Dream, he was just simply awesome. The photo above is from his film, Chapter 27. That's right, he gained weight for a role. This is an issue regarding his acting career that clearly does not faze him. Don't you just love his dedication to his craft? I hope he gets more great roles in the future.
