Actor Turned Rocker Of The Week
In the rare scenario that you’ve not been exposed to the assault of Gossip Girl promos and build-up for the upcoming season throughout our fine city (see: ‚”Every parent’s worst nightmare“), then we’re here to help.
With just one week left until their September 1st Season Two premiere, a bit of an homage to the ultra-cunt of the cast ‚Äì Ed Westwick (a.k.a. ‚”Chuck Bass”) is in order. Did you know that he has a band??? A mildy uncreative, brashly British, glam-boy actor’s wet dream of a band?
They are called The Filthy Youth, and they sound absurdly similar to The Libertines and have songs with titles like ‚”Le Soliel” and ‚”Boy Don’t Smoke.” Check out all the hits here: www.myspace.com/thefilthyyouth. Who would have guessed that Chuck Bass has such a ruff ‘n tuff (albeit unoriginal) rocker alter-ego? I expect all of the self-professed GG addicts to be playing his tunes on loop all week, and if by next Monday you can still embrace Westwick (sans accent), then you are a true fan.
XOXO.
