Penn Badgley has a photo shoot in the January 2009 issue of GQ magazine (yes, that’s the same one that has Jennifer Aniston half naked on the cover of). I’m not so sure of these pictures. Except for the last one they make him look really geeky! I’m all for geeky guys but this does not even look like Penn.

In the interview, Penn says, although he loves Gossip Girl he wishes they would give him more…

“I can do this role with my eyes closed and my arms behind my back. What I’m looking for now is something challenging. I always joke with the show’s creators, ‘Anytime you want me to do drugs or contemplate suicide, I’ll do it.’”

I have to agree with him, Dan has been kinda boring this season. We need something to spice it up. Maybe a stripper? Because Penn is sure showing off his moves in these pictures!
