This is news from a couple of months ago, so not exactly timely on our part, but we've finally caught up with our back issues of People Magazine so bear with us.
Clearly, we would be remiss if we didn't revisit their "Sexy Man of the Week" featured during the final week of October '07. I bring you Mr. Penn Badgley who stars in The CW's Gossip Girl as "hipster hottie Dan Humphrey."
Penn is from Gig Harbor, 21-years-old, and single.
What does he do on first dates?
"A first date could be as simple as making dinner at my place. I rarely cook, but I would for a girl. The last thing I made was chicken teriyaki -- that's not very sexy."
His seduction secret?
"I'll say, 'I'm gonna take you home and play piano for you.' I don't do that for just anybody. I'm not the kind of guy who'll sit at a party and play Dave Matthews to get girls -- that's too cheesy. I'll write something original."
It doesn't sound like his secret is working if he's still single. I'm guessing it's something about the way he demands that you go home with him so he can "play piano for you." Either that or his original content is not as sexy as Dave Matthews' content.
Either way, I'll tell you what IS working: His tuxedo / long johns combo.
Let's zoom in...
So, what made him so sexy that week? Why is he no longer sexy now that the week is over? Here are my best guesses to explain his fall from grace:
• So many men, so few weeks.
• He doesn't think chicken teriyaki is sexy. IT IS.
• Long johns were SO October '07.
• He revealed his Gig Harbor connection.
• People Magazine editors accidentally caught an episode of Gossip Girl.
