Apparently heart-throb Penn Badgley — who pays the rent playing nice guy Dan Humphrey on the cultural zeitgeist that is Gossip Girl — was forced to grow Wolverine style facial hair for his new movie Forever Strong, as a precaution against injuring cast mates on his perfectly sculpted cheekbones. His minor chin-pubes could only be described as Logan Lite, but I suspect that once he had a taste of the delicious X-Man mutton chops, he couldn’t resist going whole-sheep, which would explain why he ended up appearing in these pictures looking like the stoned soon-to-be ex political science major that works at the liquor store down the street from me, who sometimes wears a homemade yarmulke with a picture of a marijuana leaf on it and constantly gives me flyers for the University Hillel, even though I’m neither Jewish nor in college. I don’t have a picture of the kid to use for the comparison, but for reference, just picture David Krumholtz in Harold and Kumar.
