E! News’ Ted “Insufferable Blind Item” Casablanca got his hands on an advanced copy of the new issue of VMAN, and Casablanca is leaking this junk right away. I suppose because the quotes are so good, and Ted is trying to firmly establish himself as Team Argon. Just is case you’re sitting there with a “Who the F?” expression, Alex Pettyfer is that kid who was supposed to be The Next Big Thing until everybody realized he was a massive d-bag. Alex was in I Am Number Four, Beastly, and…? Yeah. He also dated Dianna Argon, and after she dumped him (maybe?), he stalked her (perhaps?). So… is Alex just sitting around, attempting humility? Not so much. He’s being a douche in this new interview. Here’s part of Ted’s piece:
The interview young and recently single actor Alex Pettyfer just gave the seasonal VMAN magazine—the male spinoff of V magazine—is beyond stunning. The 21-year-old, who had one explosive, literally, and messy breakup with Glee’s pretty gal Dianna Agron, is officially off his English rocker. And he did not censor a thing in demonstrating his crazed hatred of Los Angeles.
Wonder if the producers who ultimately didn’t choose Alex for the plum role of Peeta in The Hunger Games had an inkling of scandalous things to come? Possible. Not only does the I Am Number Four star trash the town that made him rich, but he shows off his misogynistic mouth, to boot. Could you imagine a man like this being the lead figure in a brand-new major movie franchise?
Ironically, in the interview Pettyfer vouches he doesn’t drink or do drugs, but the dude has to be on something to have the audacity to say some of the things he did. Let’s start with some of his personal body art, or rather, one major physical flaw.
He revealed to the magazine that he has a tattoo above his crotch that reads thank you. “In case I forget to say it,” he explained while winking.
Regardless of his career take-off, Alex had some ungrateful, vulgar words for the L.A. lifestyle, even telling the reporter he was well aware that every sick word would be printed and that he found it “f–king funny.”
“L.A. is growing on me a little bit but it’s still a s–t hole,” Pettyfer spewed. “I think it’s this insidious pool where nearly everyone lives in fear. Geographically it’s fantastic, but socially it’s disgusting. I wish they’d run all the c–ts out.”
The crude actor also mentioned, of course, that he cannot stand red carpet events.
“I really don’t give a s–t about any of that,” his potty mouth persisted. “I wish I had some interesting stories about living in L.A., but mostly I just do my work and then go home.”
“Being an actor is like being in prison,” the once aspiring actor said. “You go, you serve your time, you try and replicate Johnny Depp’s career and then you move to Paris.”

I think the misogyny is supposed to be when Alex drops the c-bomb, but that doesn’t bother me on a feminst level (when Goop did it, it didn’t bother me on a feminist level either, I just thought she was an idiot). I tend to think that when Alex dropped the c-bomb, he was using it in the British way, as a catchall for men and women who pissed him off.
But yeah, the kid’s a major d-bag. Whiny, arrogant, immature, nasty. What great personality trait additions to go along with “psycho” and “stalker” which is what I was using before. I wonder what Paul Bettany would say about this litany of butt-hurt-ness.

I was thinking the same…what would Paul Bettany say about this punk?
He is a real d-bag and he looks like a werewolf.
I hope this loser fades away quickly. I mean he’s already well on his way to being as shitty as sheen and he’s only 21! Paul Bettany takes pisses that have more class than this kid.
Whats with all the crotch grabbing in the photos?! Is that supposed to turn women ON!???
UMM, I think NOT!
*rolls eyes*
Creep alert.
This guy is scum, trash.
He’s like the male version of Megan Fox. That’s what his interview reminds me of.
Say goodbye to your career Alex!
Thanks for this, Kaiser. And yeah, the first time I read the story I wondered what Paul Bettany would say, since I’d just read Bettany’s quotes about actors. This kid is just ridiculous. Who does he think he is? I know he’s young but there’s no excuse for this particular brand of stupidity and douchebaggery.
HAHAHAHAH that’s probably the douchiest thing I’ve ever heard!!
At least his tattoo doesn’t say “You’re Welcome ” !!
Ugh. I was on the fence, but I can’t stand him now. Does he think cursing will make him looking like a big boy and a serious “actor”? He will never rival Johnny Depp’s success…
He is SO gross.
What a freaking chode! Douche-too is more like it. Geeze. I feel the need to go hurl up my afternoon snack of Wasabi Peas now… Blugh…
Could be be any more vile?
Ugh. Why is every posed picture one with his hands on his crotch? Does he thank his hand? Maybe does it in front of a mirror? Wonder why Glee girl stayed with him so long? Fear and abuse? Glad she got away.
And that, boys and girls, is how you add the final match to torching your career!
This kid got cast in three films almost back to back (I Am Number Four, Beastly, Now) and believed that he was the Next Big Thing.
Then I Am Number Four came out and didn’t do anything, Beastly tanked, and stories came fast and hard about his unpleasant personality- apparently he pitched a fit while filming I Am Number Four when he found out someone else in the cast was making more money (probably Timothy Olyphant) and refused to cash his checks, he demanded almost $10 million to star in the Mortal Instruments movie (this was before any of his films had come out, mind you- he was basically demanding a Johnny Depp salary with no box office/critical credibility), and he shot off his mouth about “considering” whether to take the role of Peeta (which wasn’t offered to him).
Add to that the stalking/psycho behavior towards his ex-girlfriend Agron, and you can understand why his IMDB profile lists…no other projects on his horizon.
probably shouldn’t insult local pussy, dumbas$.
@Sarah, Dammit you beat me to it! That was the first thing that popped into my head when I read that headline!
@ Sarah you said it girl. Though I think that was what the douche probably meant. He’s just not that bright.
I say Pettyfer should tatoo ELOHSSA on his forhead. That way when he looks in the mirror he sees it “In case everyone forgets to say it,” I explain while winking.
Yuck. I will enjoy continuing to watch his fade into oblivion.
I want to punch him in the face, after I set it on fire.
Male Megan Fox. That said it best.
I looked at the eye candy and was on board, then he opened his mouth and he got all fugly.
I hope he tries Megan Fox’s bad surgery moves next. That’ll end his need to be in LA.
To quote Basil Fawlty: “Well, goodbye.”
It’s kind of sad to see how he’s turned out, image-wise. I first saw him probably over a decade ago in a BBC TV series/movie adaption of Tom Brown’s School Days; he was adorable and incredibly charismatic to watch, a real natural.
I actually don’t find the interview THAT offensive, really. I mean, to be frank he’s probably quite on the money about LA (not to condone his language at all, but I probably found Goopy’s use of it more ‘offensive’, if at all, than Alex’s), and the prison/Johnny Depp line I took to be a more cynical view about actors in general, rather than being whiny or ungrateful about his own career, specifically.
That’s not to say he isn’t either of those things, but to me, the only thing I find most objectionable about this is the tattoo. Ugh. How presumptuously obnoxious. It’s the tattoo I could definitely read as misogynist, and the unnecessarily crotchy-grabby vibe to the shoot (though again, to be fair, we don’t know what the photographer or creative director was asking for) that irks me the most.
Though I suppose the tat may come in handy when he’s 96 years old, in a nursing home, and no longer able to wash himself or his bits…? The lucky nurse will have a constant reminder of his gratitude every time she (or he) picks up the sponge.
he is handsome.
He may want to get his dumb-ass to a laser tattoo removal clinic before some woman takes ‘matters’ into her own hands.
Oh come on! besides the tat (could be tacky OR funny, depending on your perspective),he is being honest and it is his opinion (right or wrong). I think there r worse brats in Hollywood.
HIS EARS!
Huh, I must be on something ’cause I didn’t think his interview was that bad. We all know that Hollywood’s a rat race. What’s wrong with him saying it out loud? As for the tattoo thing, I kinda thought he was just taking the piss. I wish there was a video of this interview. I’d like to see his body language and demeanor so I can try to suss out if he’s just blunt and foul-mouthed or really a douche.
The crotch pose is ridiculous though and aside from the green eyes, I don’t find him *that* attractive.
@jahn,thats exactly what i was thinking! who cares what comes out of his mouth! blah blah blah.hes a kid,he’ll regret his words when hes older.until then…i enjoy the pics!!!lol but yeah, the crotch grabbing has got to go!!!
His left ear is larger & sticks out more than his right. Maybe the “You’re welcome” tat is for when he blows himself.
Hmm. I don’t even know who this petulant little child is.
Oh well. I certainly don’t care to now.
god forbid someone should be honest about los angeles. i completely agree with him.
Buh-Bye!
Not to mention that he is a LOUSY actor, just horrifyingly bad.
I’m sorry, but I’d still bang him.
Okay… I have a few words in this interview I’ve been itching to tell, so people won’t think of him as a d-bag… because he truly isn’t!
First off, he was joking about the tat on his upper crotch. If you do YOUR research it’s his name in another language. (for those saying why he was holding his crotch… he was a model)
And LA, it overwhelmed him!!! Hollywood is pure competition and having the pressure on you as “the next big thing” is tough. People and gossipers make sure they could do anything they can to tarnish stars for another magazine sale or whatsoever. Like every month you’d see Angelina or Brad saying they got in a fight…uh… if you put that as your cover for four consecutive months I’d find that real suspicious. That’s Hollywood folks they make up rumors to gain money!!!! I think that’s what he meant when he was talking about LA because most people try to tarnish his name with all these FALSE rumors and based on the other comments, it seemed like it had worked.(It also bugs me how people start basing their facts on rumors…like him “stalking” Argon!!!)…It’s an unidentified rumor for crying out loud people! Haven’t you heard of not trusting everything you see in the internet?
OH AND FOR THE LAST TIME!!! The c*** word isn’t generally used to offend women in England, yet I don’t even think he even tried to offend us women. England has a different interpretation of that word. C**** is the equivalent word of d-bag in Brit. He most likely referred to the people who were the actors who were competing against him and trying to push him out the picture. I mean like again Hollywood has some HUGE competition and it’s hard for someone so young, yet has so much potential to suddenly adjust to something he isn’t used to. Alex is still young, he wasn’t fully aware of how Hollywood was going to be like until now. He was unprepared.
So now can we put it to rest because the person interviewing him seemed like they are desperate for money in order to do this to a young star still figuring out his way in Hollywood. It seems like he’s learning from the experiences he is receiving now.
Well, uh, he’s right. H’wood is a sh*thole full of fake c*nts. As for his attitude towards women, oh well. They can figure it out themselves that he’s kind of an ass.
People are on his case..but I bet he has no problem pulling tail.
And I guess and honesty answer only upsets depending on who is saying it.
He is very crass and a bit low class.. but some women find that attractive. (smirk)
so TERD got a scoop. He is such a tool too.
o god, i wish he had the common sense to at least try and conceal that redneck attitude towards women. what a waste of beauty.
Stef 🙂 Me too!
wouldn’t want to shake hands with those cock-tongs…
wouldn’t want to shake hands with those cock-tongs…
@koala hahahahaha ‘cock-tongs’ (I have to remember that 1).
Personally, I prefer men who don’t think they are hot shit. The hotness level goes way down when you are douchy and think you are the shit. Ladies, am I right??
I don’t know why, but, he cracks me up! He doesn’t really offend me…yet.
I second the comment upthread; I’d still hit that.
Who in the hell would fuck this kid?
And calling him the male Megan Fox is an insult to Megan Fox and that is saying something.
Eve – I disagree. I think they’re both in the same boat. I cannot stand this kid now. And I can’t stand her either! Both are eating crow for their words as their careers dwindle!
I totally enjoyed I Am Number Four and its open for a few more movies and its just f-ing sad that this guy can’t just shut the hell up and REALLY do his job and go home. Because talking like this makes him look beyond dumb. WHAT AN A-HOLE
He shows that a good personality and sweet, loving spirit are wwwwaaayyyy more attractive than physcial beauty.
I thought his ex gf was Dianna Agron not Argon.
WHO? NO, REALLY WHO??? THIS GUY WOULD HAVE TO STALK SOMEONE AND HAVE CLOROFORM HANDY JUST TO GET LAID!
Megan Fox, is that you…can’t be at the very least she’s pretty! Another “college of Knowledge” heard from…his career just ended.
@Luls – “Whats with all the crotch grabbing in the photos?! Is that supposed to turn women ON!??? UMM, I think NOT!”
My perception of crotch grabbing in pics gives me the idea that far from having any interest in being with a woman, he’s got himself, which is more than good enough for him. His being an arrogant twit makes it more believable, still.
I don’t even need to say anything negative about him, he’s already done enough damage to his career running his own mouth.
“Whiny, arrogant, immature, nasty. What great personality trait additions to go along with “psycho” and “stalker”
Are we sure were not taking about Blohan?
“Being an actor is like being in prison”?? Then for fluck’s sake go back to college under a rock near your hometown or something and spare us your verbal sepsis, eh?
yeps….i will still bang him and while we are doing it I will be looking at his “thank you” tattoo!
This post is super, awesome website!
