Penn Badgley’s Got Balls
Gossip Girl hunk Penn Badgley grows a pair for the latest issue of GQ (the one with necktie naked Jennifer Aniston on the cover).
We learn that the 22-year-old actor was named after the Penn tennis balls his dad nervously squeezed during his mom’s first sonogram.
Penn also admits that playing Dan Humphrey is way too easy. He says, “I can do this role with my eyes closed and my arms behind my back. What I’m looking for now is something challenging… I always joke with the show’s creators, ‘Anytime you want me to do drugs or contemplate suicide, I’ll do it.’ ”

1 is he is hot!!!! love penn
not feeling so great about the picture you chose, or the one penn took :s
So in other words he wished he’d got the Chuck role instead of Dan.
I don’t think he has the edge that Ed does to pull of playing the motherchucker.
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE PENN. HE’S JUST CUTE. BACK OFF LIVELY, I’M STEALING YOUR BFRIEND!
OHH GOD HE’S HOT. HE REMINDS ME TO HEATH LEDGER, THE TYPE OF MOVIES, HIS VOICE, HE’S QUITE SIMILAR
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Ungrateful *******.
He should follow his dreams and leave the show to do something challenging and fail at it.
Dan off Gossip Girl would be the best thing that could happen to that show.
Who cares about Ed he’s gay. Now Penn is a stud
lmaooo
he’s smiling in this picture!!!
whoo hes hot
i love the photo with the two tennis balls, he looks so cute!
he is so hotttttttttttttt
lucky blake!
wowowowowo he is so damn hot…
i want him
<3 test
Wow! sounds like someone kicking the horse gift in the mouth… Not exactly the ideal method to voice wanting to be challenged. LOL. He is YUMMY though…
xo

please writers…let him commit suicide.
yes he is a looker but as interesting as a slice of white bread.
he does have leading man looks, but no talent
Wow. In the leather coat he looks wicked hot.
Think my favorite is that pic. Plus the pie one. Hell I love them all.
are you all freaking crazy??? He’s one ugly D lister not even worth mentioning! Drop off the GG and find something “challenging”.. yeah right!
He is hot and has a right to be full of himself. With those cheekbones he’s not going anywhere. =P
he is such a cutie but his character on GG is so blah !
and he isn`t the best actor either .. he is kinda boring .
but like everyone else .. i still watch that trainwreck show .
Best actor on the show…been of a fan of him since his Do Over days..he reminds me of a young Johnny Depp and like the person said above..Heath Ledger. I expect to see very good things from him once his Gossip Girl days are over.
hot and yeah his character really doesn’t have much going on on the show
This interview pretty much sums him up as a HUGE DOUCHE. I get that he wants to be “challenged,” but A) work with what you’re given and make it better before trying to move on to harder stuff, and B) don’t say that in a national magazine!
It just makes him sound ungrateful and, yeah, jealous of Ed for getting to play Chuck. News flash, Penn: Ed made Chuck as popular as he is. You have yet to do that with Dan.
HOTTT!!!!!!
Love all the pictures, except for the pie one. It’s kinda random. lol
hes not arrogant…hes confident. hes right…hes mastered the dan character and its so clear that he has potential to do much deeper roles too. he is going to go very far. great actor.
He is sooo cute and handsome in these pics :)
