Her Man of the Day – Taye Diggs

January 2^nd and the first day back at work for most of us. If that includes you, congratulations – you’re nearly there. That first hurdle has almost been cleared.

But even after the toughest part (today) is over, January can be a pretty bleak month. We at Her.ie have taken it upon ourselves to brighten it up for you, with some fine male species to be displayed on these pages every day for the rest of the month.

First up, it’s the gorgeous Taye Diggs. It's his birthday today you see – so it feels only right to show some appreciation for him.

Taye first came to our attention over a decade ago, playing Jackson in Ally McBeal. He more recently starred in Private Practice, and some crossover episodes of Grey’s Anatomy. 

Unfortunately he’s off the market – Taye is married to his co-star in the Broadway musical ‘Rent’, Indina Menzel. (She plays Rachel’s mother in ‘Glee’ don't ya know…).

But we can still look – so feast your eyes on the ten pictures of a total finer in the gallery above, and check back tomorrow for a brand new hottie.

Happy 2013! x
