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.
