This picture of Burt Reynolds and Ryan O’Neal looks like it was taken in the late 70’s at some sort of ball game – maybe Lakers basketball. They were the leather jacketed cool single guys of that era – sort of like players Wilmer Valderrama and maybe Justin Timberlake today. Hard to imagine, huh? After the game they probably went to Pip’s to pick up girls.

  1. Back in the 70’s Ryan and Burt were hunks.
    Justin and Wilmer? Yuk!

  2. both of these men are incredibly trashy.
    when their looks faded, their career dried up and they seemd to have lost their mind.
    I read Tataum O’Neal’s memoir, dad was screwed up all his life. O’Neal is nasty, mean and miserable who made everyone around his person miserable.
    Paul Newman on the other hand is like, 90 years old,every bit as old as these two but he is still in demand as an actor, a sex symbol for all ages and respected for his charitable works.
    let that serve as lesson to all, LOOKS are important but LOOKS aren’t everything. Your LOOKS can replace character, your LOOKS can subsitute for your intelligence.

  3. I love these old photos..especially the one of Farrah a few weeks ago. They really take me back…lovely idea!

  4. yep…this is a good one, janet because it also shows how everything goes in cycles…the guys that are so young and hot now will fade into oblivion and be replaced in the hollywood grinder with some new fresh meat. i used to think that burt reynolds was sexy…and so did a lot of other people haha

  5. Hey Burt hows your wig glue holding up? Ok Ryan, hey wanna go back to Malibu after the game and do some fat lines? maybe we can tag farrah?

  6. I knew they had dated, but I didn’t know there were phots.
    And look, Burt has his own hair, and Ryan hasn’t tried to kill anyone!

  7. A freakin snort fest!
    Ryan looks ready to lift off.
    Memories…sniff.

  8. Too cool! The good old days. They were both great looking. They don’t make ’em like that anymore!

  9. Burt should have steered clear of plastic surgery.
    Too bad Ryan’s sons didn’t get his good looks.

  10. Janet tell us what it was like to have your way with Burt ?
    Whatever happened to Lonnie Anderson? Ah! What a great show! “WKRP in Cinninati”
    I’m surprised somebody doesn’t recast for a some something like that, with colorful characters and hot babes.
    Ryan, what’s the guy good for – Heaven can wait?

  11. You know why Paul Newman was so successful ? Because he was also a photographer and he was able to focus on what kind of people he had around him. Meaning he was a pretty good judge of character.
    Something that is missing in Hollywood these days. Which is why so many people are so screwed up.. They lack moral guidance.
    Note what Lindsey Lohan is doing – taking pictures of the people around her… So she can weed out the dirt bags.
    Just like the papparazi’s who stick camera in their faces, the actors should start taking pictures of these characters so as when there is an accident they’ll know who to go after. Better to fight fire with fire… Who knows some of these papaparazi might not want their pictures taken either.

  12. They probably went back to the hotel and
    f-ucke-d each other after the game. I have always heard that Burt was g-a-y.

  13. these picture are old they are fatter and grayed now. ugh’

  14. Can anyone tell me how I can open this photo, seems that the membership is required?!

  15. Casonia of Seattle..Who really loves the Hell out of Hells kitchen for the Bluntness and most of all how many showers do this people take every day and how often do they wash there hands and..I notice there is no music and no watching tv..How boring that says:

    We alway fall in love with the man who holds are heart and by a movie or a picture can turn are attention towards that direction and… for 60years or more? SOME ONE ALWAYS TORCHES ARE HEART OR MAKES IT SKIP A BEAT AND ALL WE CAN THINK ABOUT IS MAKING LOVE TO THAT MAN AND HAVING HIM FOR A FULL 24 HOURS WOULD BE IN HOG HEAVEN.
