I’ve been meaning to post this for a while: I don’t get Gossip Girl‘s Ed Westwick’s appeal. Here he is at the New Moon afterparty at club Box in NYC on November 19th. I think he’s short in real life. And has some weird circular dot of concealer or something on the side of his face. And always looks sweaty. And he has a big head. But I bet he’s one of those people that some of you just think is hot no matter what, right? Like, you cannot be swayed from thinking he’s sexy. I get that. I think I use to understand his appeal, but somewhere along the way, it changed and now I see him as a sweaty little troll who never learned to button.
You can put me in the “not” camp. Something about him hits me as skeevy. I don’t have anything against chest hair, per say, but on him, not so much. But then, I never watched “Gossip Girl”. I’ll take Ian Somerhalder from “The Vampire Diaries”, thankyouverymuch.
Yes, skeevy. And according to people who have dealt with him in real life = skeevy is a good word. And you’re right about Ian Somerhalder! I need to do a Boys On The Brain post about him. 😉
He’s sexy.
emma. damn it, he is a little sexy. a sexy little sweaty troll. 😉
he looks ewww in this pic.
haha sexy sweaty troll.. i think that describes my boyfriend rather well.. (but he does not have the hairy hairy chest)
Alyssa, lucky u? 😉
I think the weird dot on his face is a raindrop on the camera maybe?
I don’t think he’s anything remarkable. At least he has chest hair, it makes me think he’s at least manly in some way. As opposed to the many effeminate dudes out and about in the public eye these days. but also gross. He looks like he probably smells like sweat and alcohol in that pic.
Jumbly, I think he gets points for not waxing his chest hair too, which on him would just be weird. But on some guys I think is ok? I mean… I don’t know if I would want to date a guy who spends more time on beauty type things than me, but I don’t mind looking at them. 😉 I think maybe it’s just a really bad pic, but there are a lot of red carpet pics of Ed with the buttons of his shirt practically undone to his naval as well. (EW.)
pass. just in general. but also because of all the hype. hype ruins things for me. and then there’s the “taking one’s self too seriously” issue that could possibly be the ugliest of traits.
Something about his weird angular face and his smile puts me off. I’m more into Chace myself. And I have to agree with Chris, give me Ian Somerhalder: any.day.
Ian Somerhalder is hot. I need to dedicate a full HOTB post to him!
