Now that you’ve flossed your brain clean of that Rolling Stone cover -- you know, ‘True Blood’ vampires, AB-negative wardrobe -- we bring you another entry in our Hot or Gross? category.

Behold, for you we give you former kiddie pop singer Aaron Carter, little brother of Backstreet Boy Nick. Carter posted a shirtless pic of himself via Twitter. We commend him for having a torso so ropey it could rustle up a good dozen head of cattle if it were knotted up proper.

(For a while there we thought we might actually be looking at Vanilla Ice after a few weeks packed in kosher salt, but that’s what proper reporting is all about.)

Next week: Close-ups of Sarah Jessica Parker’s man hands, with a special cameo by Madonna’s forearms!
