Guy Crush of The Week

So this weeks Eye Candy is the British born actor, Ed Westwick. I love Ed, seriously I do. And not just because I've actually seen him play live, but because, lately, he has been looking pretty damn hot. He's an absolute legend in the American hit TV show, Gossip Girl, where he plays bad boy Chuck Bass. How he manages to maintain the same accent for every show is a mystery to me, but he does it somehow. Before Gossip Girl he was in a few films including "Son Of Ranbow" where he played Lawrence, he was Joey in a "100 Feet", Alex in "Children of Men" and is going to be playing "Heathcliff" in the amazing book, "Wuthering Heights" which I am so unbelievably amped for! He's perfect for Heathcliff. His band, Filthy Youth, aren't at all big but I gotta say their music is played frequently on my iTunes. Lots of people dont like them, but I think they are pretty good because they sound so different to the typical indie, rock, group plus I just cant get over his accent. I'm really hoping we'll be seeing a lot more of Ed in upcoming years when Gossip Girl is finished or if he doesnt pursue his career in acting he at least gives music another shot.
