Lip Gallagher's Sexiest Moments on Shameless Could Leave Every Girl in Southie Swooning
Bad boy (noun): The type of guy who is shamelessly charming and who you know is going to break your heart, but you simply can't resist falling under their spell.
As my friends so kindly like to point out, I tend to stay away from this breed of men, with the exception of one onscreen stud who leaves me (and presumably every single viewer) swooning, and that's Lip Gallagher from Shameless. The minute actor Jeremy Allen White appeared on screen in the season one premiere of the Showtime series back in 2011, that was it; the South Side of Chicago was doomed. His good looks, genius-level IQ, and unwavering love for his family make me — and everyone else — weak at the knees.
Throughout every season of the show, Lip, like every member of the Gallagher family, has been through some serious ups and downs, but he always manages to keep his head high and the family afloat. (Sorry, Fiona, but he is the brains behind the operation.) So, warn your lady parts and read on to see all of Lip's sexiest moments on Shameless.
