‘Outlander’ Star Sam Heughan On Whether It’s “Demeaning” To Be Called “A Hunk” (VIDEO)

Let’s face it: there are lot of “hunks” on television right now. Between

and the long-list of superhero shows and YA adaptations on television, there is no shortage of attractive men to look at on TV. However, is it fair for women to enjoy an actor or character for his looks?

star Kit Harington (Jon Snow) lamented being labeled a hunk. He said:

“I’m in a successful TV show in a kind of leading man way and it can sometimes feel like your art is being put to one side for your sex appeal. And I don’t like that. In this position you get asked a lot, ‘Do you like being a heartthrob? Do you like being a hunk?’ Well, my answer is, ‘That’s not what I got into it for.”

‘s Sam Heughan (Jamie Fraser) is another leading man who gets asked that question a lot. After all, he is, after all, the romantic lead on a popular show that loves to strip him down to his skivvies. When we were recently given an opportunity to sit down with Heughan, we had to ask the affable Scot if he minded all the attention and if, like Harington, he found the label “demeaning.”

“Wow, demeaning…that’s a strong word,” said Heughan before he sweetly complimented Harington and

“Ultimately, it’s not something that I think about or that any of us think about. You know, I’m an actor and doing a role that happens to be well-loved by the fans and that’s terrific.”

There you have it. Sam Heughan doesn’t seem bothered by being labeled “a hunk.” So, enjoy your Jamie Fraser fantasies, ladies and gentlemen! [Where to Stream
