'Dancing With the Stars': Jesse Metcalfe's act sidelined by his looks, fans wonder 'how is he that hot at 41?'

While his performance was noteworthy too, what caught the eyes of the audience is how good Jesse Metcalfe looks

The performances in the second episode of 'Dancing With the Stars' were definitely more lit than the previous, as one of the pairs was sent home after the first eliminations. 

Whether the judges were impressed with Jesse Metcalfe's foxtrot performance with Sharna Burgess is debatable, but fans sure couldn't stop swooning over his looks. In episode 2 of 'Dancing With the Stars', the 'Desperate Housewives' star and his dancing partner Burgess delivered quite a performance to 'Dreams' by Fleetwood Mac. 

The judges had mixed reactions about Metcalfe's performance. While they noted that he's definitely improved compared to his previous act, they also pointed out that he needs to keep practicing as it could build his confidence. While Bruno tells Metcalfe to watch his rare end, posture and footwork, Carrie disagreed with her fellow judge and said that the duo's performance was in fact good. The duo finished with a total score of 20. 

While the actor has gathered an impressive amount of attention for putting his moves on the display, fans seem to be swept off their feet by his rather ravishing appearance. Soon after Metcalfe's performance concluded, a significant number of them took to Twitter to admire his looks, even more than the performance he put up in the latest episode. 

One while fan tweeted, "How does sharna dance with @jessemetcalfe I’d pass out being in the same room with him #DWTS." Another wrote, "How is @jessemetcalfe that hot at 41 years old. What’s the secret sir #dwts." Meanwhile one wrote, "Lol I was thinking the exact same thing - he is so adorable (and actually not a bad dancer at all)," and another fan seconding the previous tweet added, "@jessemetcalfe could ruin my life and I’d thank him. #dwts."

It was very smooth and the chemistry between @SharnaBurgess and @jessemetcalfe is great! I see you #TeamAllIn #dwts." Another wrote, "@jessemetcalfe
Awesome job tonight. Hoping to see you win!"
