Law & Order: Organized Crime star Christopher Meloni turned heads with his new beefcake photo shoot with Men's Health, showing off an enviable physique at 60 years old.

In the accompanying interview, Meloni addressed his cultural moment that is inspiring major Internet appreciation. "My a— is," Meloni clarified, talking about how he is inspiring thirst everywhere. "It's cool as s—," Meloni continued. "The aspect of age comes into play as far as the cover of [this magazine] and how I feel about it. A friend of mine said, 'Did you ever think in a million years you'd be on the cover of Men's Health?' I said, 'Certainly not at age 60.' "

​

The photos from Meloni's Men's Health spread caused quite a stir online, with the horny masses to tweet out their appreciation for his current workout regimen. "Where is our large format coffee table photography book of Chris Meloni in his prime," wrote one Twitter user.

​

In the interview, Meloni asks what a "zaddy" is exactly, and is delighted to find out that it's a certain level of hotness that could only come at this phase of his life. "I just thought it was a cutie thing," the Law & Order: Organized Crime star said. "Daddy plus? Daddy platinum?"

"It's reserved for an older gentleman," Meloni realized. "How much am I allowed to taste of this fruit? How much am I allowed to enjoy this?"

​

"How am I supposed to meet my deadlines when Chris meloni's glutes are living in my head rent free," tweeted author Robbie Crouch.

​

"Christopher Meloni thank you so much for blessing us once again," tweeted another fan alongside a shirtless photo from the spread.

​

"My entire timeline is shirtless Chris Meloni what a time to be alive!" tweeted another fan about the thirst traps.

​

In the interview, Meloni also jokes about the skill of his glutes, proving that he has a sense of humor about the entire thing. "I catch flies with my a-- cheeks, like a Venus flytrap," he laughs. "I'm clever with my a-- cheeks!"
