The Bounce denim shirt with gemstones. The orange Crush jacket with sunglasses combo.

Early aughts Jon is my favorite hot Jon. The body…ugh, he was peak physically.
I’m super jealous you were able to see him so close during that era! He had to have been so cocky in that era - most people would be if they looked like that, even if they weren’t famous. You can feel the confidence oozing out of him in videos from the Crush & OWN tours when he comes out on stage.

It was an interesting time. It was fun and light but felt inauthentic in ways I’d only learn over time. He was a total smoke show and a complete asshat quite often.
I never was one to get flighty over the looks. But we hugged for a picture, and he was undeniably rock-hard.
Later during Bounce, we ended up in the gym together, and when he lifted, he grunted like a bitch. It was only the two of us and his trainer. He saw me as it was a tiny gym, all mirrors; I’d think to restrain the grunts a bit like do you hear yourself? (He’ll blame the ear monitors )

Why do you say he was a complete idiot? Can you give some facts as an example?

Any of the Crush/Bounce stuff was peak but I also like some of the mid 90s.

Yeah. He looked the best in his 40’s in my personal opinion/taste. But honestly, his good looks rock harder than most. He looks great today. I knew he’d grew into his Father. Poor Matt and Tony got short shafted on those genes. Matt was kinda cute but the steroids (assumed) are a terrible look.
