Christian Needs To Shave That Thing Off

Otherwise he's looking good. And I admire the fact that he went ahead and made angry faces for this shoot for GQ. He's nothing without them! If he were all shy smiles and puppy-dog eyes I'd be disappointed. Also, scared. I'd be even more scared actually. Christian Bale smiles at you and he has a nail-gun behind his back. Remember that. (via, via)


Also, love this tidbit from the interview:

GQ: Have you ever considered comedy?
Bale: [defensively] I think American Psycho is a very funny movie.

Well duh.

Why is it that growing facial hair and other hair are rites of passage when we are young, but then we find being hairless more sexy than hairy. Maybe it is our tendency to idealize the future man because we no longer need hair and may evolve without it, (or is that adult baldness?)

If that were a full, enormous - you might even say "luxurious" - beard, I wouldn't have any problem with it. I just don't know what that thing on his face is even supposed to be, and I don't like it.

So I don't mind facial hair if done correctly. I like a man with some scruff. And body hair is always welcomed. Preferred, actually. But there are rules! And Christian Bale is flaunting those rules! And I won't stand for it!

Agreed, JA...generally beards and scruff are more than A-OK for me, but something about the shape of that thing on his face just does not work for his face-type...nice guns in the folded arms pic, though!

Now see I like the Van Dyke or whatever he's sporting on his face. What happened to his finger I wonder?

God, he's become so boring. :(

Look at you, DuchessKitty, pulling out what that facial hair is called! Good job. ;-)

In the interview he talks about his finger; apparently he was in a motorcycle accident and had to get the tip of his finger chopped off. ICK.
