Casual in Istanbul

They came with their ship and enslaved us...that was the best slavery ever :P Here are Pirates of Mediterranean from Russia...

Two brothers...they look very innocent but if you guys were there with us and saw how they acted in the sea...all that wrestling , fighting and stuff with their hot and wet bodies...OMG ,even just remembering them is not good for our old hearts!!!LOL.There are more of them...

Here and after the jump!

And this one...he was a real piece of art! You guys should appreciate that how hard it was for us to take these photos without taking a bite :P There is one more of him....a seductive one...you should definitely take a look at!
And have you missed Part 1??? It's still HERE

Casual in Istanbul/So Slowly

Every week we are gonna try to inform you about Turkish Pop Culture includes design , music , fashion , photography etc. with the collaboration of our blogmate So Slowly. So Slowly is the perfect example of a blog that reflects the popular culture from our home country and abroad.
Let us introduce you Murat Boz...a pop singer whose debut single "Aski Bulamam Ben" has just arrived.He is 26 , working in music industry for a long time as a back singer of most of the Turkish Pop Stars...He's the back singer of Tarkan for five years!He has a very nice voice , he can dance well and he is extremely hot! We first saw his music video on TV couple of weeks ago ; we had no idea who he was and the concept of the video was a Peep-show ; he was singing his song in the middle of a room that surrounded with windows , there were hot girls behind the windows and he was singing while undressing!!Actually the end of the video was a bit disappointment , he didn't undress enough!That's why we are waiting for his second video impatiently just like trying to sleep again when a horny dream interrupted...For more pictures of him check So Slowly.

Our summer vacations are always good for relaxing , tanning , partying and stuff...but they are also a nice source for Casual in Istanbul. Our destination was the southern part of our country : Mediterranean shores where tons of hot guys from Russia and from eastern European countries lay down on the beach.On our first days we generally just look around and explore , finding some targets(lol...sounds like safari).Then the harder part comes...time for shooting. With cameras and sometimes with cell phones...
Here is Part One : Hidden or not...for your viewing pleasure ;)

This one was a tough work...he is a Russian boy in his early twenties...hot as hell!But always around with his family and a very protective older brother. We waited and waited till our last day then Mehmet lost all his patience and took those photos of him by the pool...

This is P. We became friends with him. He is a really nice guy from Switzerland. He is working as a bartender/model! A big guy with a hot body and a very warm smile. He had some naked photos of himself in his cell phone and he promised to send the hi-res ones to us via e-mail...

And some random ones...you can see the larger ones by clicking on them.
Wait for Part Two...very soon...

Alternative Holidays Events are a direct response to the diversity of gay community. We are all different. We have different tastes, different ideas about what we want to do and where we want to go. Fulfilling those different expectations is what Alternative Holidays is all about. This year's event takes place in the stunning resort of Bodrum ; Queen of the Aegean Sea - in exotic Turkey. A truly inspiring location!
We have been in Bodrum several times ; besides it's incredible climate , turquoise sea ; the city is 24/7 pure entertainment...one of the best ones in whole Europe...We hardly recommend to all of you guys. You can relax, explore, take time off, shop, be yourself, meet guys from around the world and party till you drop - it's your choice and it's in a completely safe, open environment, with staff primed to grant your every wish. Sounds like heaven?From 24th of September , to 1st of October...
Don't be late and book here!

Hey Guys , we're back finally...but as usual we left our brains , hearts and eyes there!!10 days of fun , sun , sea , sex and eye candies ;it's really hard to come back to Istanbul. After spending really good time together 24 hours a day ; today Mehmet began working and i already missed him while doing the laundry all by myself(sigh)...Gotta go now but no worries , we're gonna share the hot stuff with you asap!

Haluk aka Luk is a new generation Turkish actor from Cologne /Germany. His acting career is not a huge one yet , he's taking the steps slowly but very strong. First of all he is already a fabulous actor. He took classes from Actors Studio. He starred in five movies and now he's everywhere in Turkey because of his new TV Series..."Fake Princess".

He's 31 years old at the moment. As all the Turkish hotties , his photos(especially the naked ones) are impossible to find on the internet but as far as we can see from a swimming pool scene at the TV Series , he has a fit and a hot body.
As a Law School Graduaute and an actor his acting career started in 1997 in a German TV-Film called "Mädchenfalle". After some more TV-Films for various German TV Channels , his first acting performance on big screen was in a German Gangster movie called "Kanak Attack" in 2000.He played some leading parts in four other more movies , then came back to Turkey for a TV-Series...

It's over again...after months of waiting with excitement it ended in almost two hours.17,000 Turkish fans shouted , sang the songs , waved hands...No need for fancy words this is Depeche Mode and they were great as they always be.The show was at one of the greatest spots of Istanbul : between Bosphorus and the trees. The atmosphere was great(we don't want to mention the Organisation Company sucked).Oh god it's too hard to wait for another five years.

Jason has a special place on Casual in Istanbul , we couldn't help ourselves to make a post about him when we saw something new...After two motion pictures(Starsky& Hutch and A Cinderella Story)where he played a hot dancer as well and Kylie's Showgirl Tour he was vanished. Now the announcement of Kylie's coming back with Showgirl Homecomig Tour  , he is back on the track!These photos are shocking...male strippers...

We have no idea what is this for ?Anyone has any idea? All we know is every single stripper except Jason doesn't care to take off everything. Besides we think he doesn't have to...he is extremely hot already and our hearts aren't strong enough to see him without his clothes!

We've seen this guy months ago in GQ Magazine.Unfortunately there wasn't any information about the model in the mag not even his name...So we kept GQ for further investigations ;) Ta daa: here he is...Hugo Vieira.We still have no idea where he is from but his stats are delightful as you can see in the photos.185 cm height with dark brown hair , brown eyes and a breath taking body.

I won't tell anything more(actually these are the only things i know about him)just look at the photos they tell everything ;)

POLAROIDS AFTER THE JUMP...

Depeche Mode Concert in Istanbul will be on this Sunday...we're extremely happy and impatient. We got our backstage passes and ready to meet the band!Till then a tribute to Depeche Mode...a hottie singing Somebody...he is a real eye candy...just ignore the guitar skills and voice ;)

Turkey and Serbia&Montenegro played the final match of FIBA European U20 Championship tonight. This is the event that keeps us home for the last ten days. Besides all the excitement our U20 Team is a really good team and also they're extremely cute! Unfortunately they lost the game and took the second place in the championship but they are still our golden boys.Let's be more specific...two of them are the best young players in Turkey:
Cenk is my favorite ; He's from Istanbul - Kadikoy ; our neighborhood.He was drafted in 2005 by the NBA's Atlanta Hawks after playing for the Turkish team, Efes Pilsen SK.He is the next great hope. His brilliant fundamentals make it look as if everything comes easy to him on the floor.Having played point guard as a cadet his dribbling and passing skills are excellent. He is a good shooter.His enormous wingspan and his ever alert hands make him a constant steal threat.A tireless worker that has future star written all over him.

Height: 6' 4"
Weight: 195 lbs.
Position: Point Guard / Shooting Guard
College: Turkey
Born: 16th April, 1987
 

Ersan is Mehmet's favorite ; He is from Uzbekistan originally but he has Turkish blood in his veins.He is a professional basketball player currently with the Milwaukee Bucks. There are discrepancies concerning his true age. Some speculate that he was actually born in 1984, which would limit his  NBA potential.But the birth-year on his ID is 1987.He was drafted by the Bucks in the second round (36th overall) of the 2005 NBA Draft and signed a two-year contract with them in 2005.He did not play in an NBA game during the 2005-2006 season. He was instead assigned to the Bucks D League team, the Tulsa 66-ers where he played 46 games and averaged 12.5 points and 7.0 rebounds. This gave him a chance to get experience and the feel of playing in America.Ersan played professionally in turkey for Ulkerspor before he was chosen for the Turkish national team.
Height: 6' 9"
Weight: 235 lbs.
Position: Small Forward
College: Turkey
Born: 15th May, 1987
Cenk and Ersan are getting along together well in U20 Turkish National Team they're completing each other like we do...that's probably why we love both of them so much...

Cristiano on the hot sands...we all saw the recent pics of him playing casual football around at Towleroad and Oh La La Paris. Now here are the most recent ones...

He's relaxing at the beach with his girlfriend and family...No need to say that he's hot because he is hot anyway...
