This month, we're loving... Sean O’Pry

We watched him get burnt by Taylor Swift, but the truth is, it’s this smokin’ hot model who has us all afire.

Can’t get enough of Sean O’Pry? Neither can we, which is why we’ve uncovered these facts about “the guy in the ‘Blank Space’ music video”.

Growin’ Up Country

Yup, Sean hails from the town of Kennesaw, Georgia (population: 30,000). After being named Forbes’ Most Successful Male Model of 2009, he received a key to the city from Kennesaw’s mayor.

Sean of a New Era

Shortly after uploading his prom photos onto Myspace (remember that?), a 17-year-old Sean O’Pry was discovered by former America’s Next Top Model judge Nolé Marin, who put him in touch with the woman who is still his manager, Lana Winters Tomczak.

Mixed Blessings

In an early interview with The New York Times, Sean said success as a model is “30 percent [the] face”, while the rest is all attitude. Well, we can thank Sean’s half-Irish and half-Native American genes for those smouldering blue eyes, dark brows and chiselled jaw. As for the attitude? That’s 100 percent Sean.

# Man Crush Monday
