Hottie of the Week – Alberto Rosende

Thanks to this Hottie the Friendzone has never looked so good.

Welcome back Nephilim, Downworlders and Mundanes to this Hottie of the Week featuring the one and only Alberto Rosende!

Better known to most of us as Simon Lewis, life-long best friend (and crush holder) of Clary Fray turned vampire and some time love interest of Izzy Lightwood.

Things you might not know about this Hottie:

  1. Alberto is of Cuban and Colombian descent
  2. He was diagnosed with cancer but as of 2016 is 3 years cancer free!
  3. Alberto had only featured in a couple of short features and TV guest spots before landing the role of Brooklyn born Simon in Shadowhunters.

Now Izzy might have described Simon as “nerd hot” but there’s a whole lot more going on under those slogan t-shirts than you might think.

Hands up who wants to be Eme right there?! *puts both hands in the air*

But since the end of s1 Alberto has been putting in some SERIOUS gym time. Dominic actually said that out of everyone, Berto has made the biggest physical transformation.

Well we here at FANdemonium Towers are not just going to take anyone’s word for it. We put in the gruelling woman hours and turned up a few pics for your perusal. Take a look at the evidence and make your own judgement.

Exhibit A (for ABS!)

Hopefully, given all this effort, in season 2 Simon will move out of the friendzone and straight into Izzy’s heart!

From nerd hot to damn hot, that’s it for this Hottie of the Week. I’ll let Berto himself have the last word (with some assistance from a couple of Shadowhunters you might recognise) and we will see you next week!
