Given that Jensen Ackles's modeling days hearken all the way back to that infamous cowboy shoot in 1999 [1], it's safe to say he's had quite a long time to master his smolder. We've followed him through the years [2] as he's paved his way on the small screen, admiring his downright hottest pictures [3] and epic Supernatural facial expressions [4] with equal fervor. Then, as soon as he opened his mouth and sang [5], we were irrevocably in love. To commemorate the way we slowly fell for Jensen, treat yourself to all these pictures of him staring into your soul. You may want to have a seat first.
