We're not so sure about the facial hair, but Michael Phelps' muscles definitely make up for it!

The Olympic swimmer was spotted at the pool in Miami, and while he wasn't swimming laps, it looks like he had a blast relaxing with friends. Phelps tweeted, "This weather is something you can't ever complain about... Sunny and 75 in the middle of jan? Sounds good to me!"

Phelps is currently training for the 2012 Summer Olympics, which kick off this July in London. Can't wait to see him back in a Speedo!

The American swimmer has 14 Olympic gold medals, tons of endorsement deals and the body of a Greek God... and he's only 24! Damn. Anyway, check out Michael Phelps at the Winter Olympics in Vancouver watching Apolo Anton Ohno breaking new records last night. Can't wait for 2012!

Olympic gold medalist Michael Phelps was involved in a collision with another vehicle in Baltimore last night, reports the AP.

Phelps, who was not injured in the crash, was driving his Cadillac Escalade when it collided with a Honda Accord. The Honda driver was taken to the hospital as a precaution, but neither of the two passengers in Phelps' car were hurt either.

Police say that after interviewing Phelps they determined that alcohol was not a factor.

Not that we didn't already know this!

The swimming Olympiad stopped by Borders in Westwood yesterday to sign copies of his book, No Limits: The Will To Succeed. He also has another book out called Beneath the Surface. Nothing wrong with cashing in on your success if you're an American hero like Michael Phelps!

There's a heap of hotness at the newsstand this week!

You've got hunky Hugh Jackman taking the title of "People's Sexiest Man Alive."

Olympic swimming stud Michael Phelps shirtless on "GQ's Man of the Year" cover.

And Twilight's sexy vampire Robert Pattinson on Entertainment Weekly as one of their "Top Ten Breakout Stars of 2008."

So who do you think is the hottest cover guy?

We had to look twice at these shots from last night at the Palms Place Hotel & Spa.

We almost didn't recognize Michael Phelps rockin' the "hoodie 'n flip-flops" look in Vegas. We're not used to seeing him with so many clothes on.

We're not saying they're the right clothes, but that's another post.

Hey, he deserves it! Right?

We spotted Michael Phelps (who clearly did NOT wanna be photographed) heading back to his hotel after the VMAs last night... our photog on the scene said the Olympic gold medalist was "having a VERY good time and appeared to have had more than just a couple of drinks."

Clearly he's taking advantage of his newfound fame and partying to the max - both in LA and Vegas! Guess Michael likes rum & cokes just as much as he likes fried-egg sandwiches, chocolate-chip pancakes and pounds (yes, pounds!) of pasta?

And don't forget those energy drinks!

Before arriving in Los Angeles to present at the 2008 VMAs, golden boy Michael Phelps enjoyed one last night of partying in Las Vegas, and yet again, he was swarmed by girls.

A few weeks ago when Michael was shooting an episode of HBO's Entourage in NYC, actor Kevin Connolly commented to E! that "it was like being in New York City with one of the Beatles. People were stopping in the streets and climbing up things to see him. They were going nuts." Looks like the madness for Michael hasn't slowed down!
