Alex Pettyfer is still a douche, shows up 2 hours late for a photo shoot

Ever since I finally figured out who Alex Pettyfer is, I’ve been inundated with tabloid stories about what a massive douche he is. Most of the stories come from Us Weekly, which indicates to me that Alex must have done something to piss off the editors at some point. Either that, or Us Weekly just has very Dianna Agron-heavy sources. I think The Hollywood Reporter got the ball rolling when they profiled Alex’s rise to douchedom, but everything went a little crazy right after Alex and Dianna split up. Suddenly, it was okay to insinuate that Alex was and is a stalker, predator, psycho and maybe even a pyromaniac. It also became okay to openly discuss how Alex’s drama is unwanted in Hollywood. So, you would assume that Alex has been off somewhere, licking his wounds, right? Not so much, according to Us Weekly. They had this little report in this week’s issue:

Beastly star Alex Pettyfer won’t be losing that rough reputation any time soon. The Brit, 20 – who had a meltdown at a club February 18 after he split from Dianna Agron, 24 – showed up to a recent magazine photo shoot two hours late!

He said, “For the cover, I would have been on time,” reveals an insider. Says the actor’s rep: “Absolute nonsense.”

[From Us Weekly, print edition]

Yeah. His people denied all of those other reports too, but the sheer volume of detailed reporting regarding his dram queen antics have made me a believer. So, I believe this story. This happened. And Alex still doesn’t get that he’s completely replaceable.

    He SO should be Lindsay Lohan’s new boyfriend. I think they’d be a perfect couple.

  2. Brittany says:

    Where the hell did this guy get the idea that he could be a douche? Has he made a movie that’s even broken the top 10? What a tool. And not nearly cute enough to act like one!

  3. brin says:

    He gives off big douche vibes and he looks like he doesn’t take a bath either.

  4. Christine says:

    God help me, I think he’s hot. And I’m old enough to be his mother.

  5. ordinarygirl86 says:

    Actually I remember reading rumors that he was a douchebag when he was with Emma Roberts but dismissed it at the time until the same stories started popping up when he was with Agron. I TOTALLY believe that he said “For the cover, I would have been on time”

    He strikes me as the type who will go to a restaurant and refuse to wait on a table all the while screaming the always classic-
    ” DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?”

  6. Char says:

    I mean…that is annoying of him, but celebrities are usually way later than that to things like photo shoots and interviews. He probably isn’t famous enough to get away with that so much, but I’m not sure it’s good evidence of his extra douchiness.

  7. Ari says:

    Still don’t see what the attraction is.

  8. Franny says:

    He’s not even all that well known to behave in such a spoiled way. Being good-looking doesn’t give him a free pass to be arrogant and entitled. He’s cute, but so are plenty of other young actors. It is too soon in his career to develop a bad-boy reputation…he’s no Colin Farrell or Russell Crowe.

    I believe people like him have probably been admired for their looks all their lives, and it makes them cocky. Then when you add fame to the mix, they become even more insufferable!

  9. Kat says:

    He looks like a caveman. What’s up with his ears? Not to mention the spray-on pleather jacket. Ugh.

  10. j says:

    I get serious Ryan Phillipe vibes from him, same entitled and bratty attitude.

  11. newtsgal says:

    I really don’t understand why these boys act like they are something special when you know there are 100 more out there with more talent and as for the looks just go to any college campus and you can find 200 that are way better looking

  12. Emma says:

    Introducing the next Jude Law…

  13. Cali says:

    “God help me, I think he’s hot. And I’m old enough to be his mother.”

    Lol, I think he is hot too, it’s a shame that his attitude is so bad, if the stories are true

  14. danielle says:

    Ugh, I find him to be SO unattractive. I really hope they don’t cast him as Peeta in the Hunger Games.

  15. mln76 says:

    @danielle OH NO they can’t do that!

  16. sassenach says:

    @ Danielle & mln I hope they don’t either. I knew that he refused to go in and read for it because he had not seen the script so maybe there is still hope. I am hoping for Hunter Parrish.

  17. beth says:

    yea, i think he’s hot too… from this distance…
    ill hit it then dump it.
    no, wait a minute i might not want to after talking with him 5 minutes……………………

  18. Harley says:

    Who is this guy? Seriously, until I came to this site I had never even heard of him before. From the (admittedly) little that I have read, it is way too soon for him (i.e., not famous enough) to be pulling diva antics.

  19. Ron says:

    I am amazed that a guy with NO name recognition would pull this crap. He’s not that good looking, he has had two tanking films, why would anyone want to work with this ass ever again. You have had your shot and with this kind of attitude you are going to be over before you begin. You do not have anything that 10 other good looking actors in LA don’t have. Humility for a change pal.

  20. randomness says:

    Seriously 2 hours if you are lucky! the worst celebrity I’ve worked with so far was 5 1/2 hours late to set. Count your blessings with these bratty people.

  21. Devon says:

    He better not be Peeta! I would so be pissed if they put him against Jennifer Lawrence. Not to mention his douchebaggery, he’s too pretty to be Peeta. Gale, I could deal but NOT PEETA!!!!! *sobs*

  22. kiko says:

    who is he?

  23. kitkat says:

    You believe stories you read in Us Magazine and you are calling someone else a douche? The irony.

  24. Cyan says:

    Alex is a great actor and he deserves credit. He’s a modest guy who really loves acting and people are taking his humility and shyness as arrogance. He came out of nowhere and blindsided a bunch of big-shots so now they’re looking way too into his personal life. I see that he needs some space. I’m not buying their jealous ploys to put him down. It’s obvious to me that Diana has a lot more publicity than he does and people are just getting in line to bat the new-comer around like a rag doll. I really like him and hope he survives the storm okay.

  25. carrie says:

    only 2 hours?! when Naomi Campbell or Courtney Love can be late of some days

  26. Cate says:

    Hearsay is inadmissible because it is so inherently unreliable. US Weekly might be an unimpeachable source (similar to Who Magazine), however, it is equally probably that he is losing a publicity war of attrition. Dianna Agron might have been unwilling to sacrifice her “sweet as pie” reputation, and may have started the snowball rolling when her performance in “I am Number 4” did not receive critical acclaim.

    I watched that very ordinary movie directed at squeeing tweens: it hit its demographic point blank! It was so pretty and predictable (save for Timothy Olyphant, who did a good job). Agron, however, played the same Glee character accessorized with a camera; new winter clothing and dazzling assortment of hair accessories. Despite the wardrobe, the intonation, actions and characterisation were the same. Even the hand gestures (watch for the hand gestures) I kept expecting her to break out in song “We’re so pretty, oh so pretty … vacant”. It is possible to play similar, yet different characters – an object lesson is to watch Sam Rockwell in “Moon”! [he’s the stuff that dreams are made of]!

    OMG with the yellow side teeth. I understand he’s british but seriously, whiten your freakin teeth!

  28. Kelly says:

    I’m a photographer and trust me, if you keep a whole crew waiting (as I presume this little turd did) you make the wrong kind of enemies. NEVER shit on the people you’re relying on to make you look good, because they have a plethora of devious ways to pass it back to you threefold. If you’re ever wondering why a celebrity looks way more like a retarded donkey than usual on the cover of this or that, and why wasn’t something done about it, you can be sure they pissed off the photographer, stylist or slap people. With the kind of turn around time and ants’-arse budget print has at the moment, nobody reshoots.
    Ha ha! I love that.

  29. wunderkindt says:

    He is not ‘important’ enough to be pulling this sh!t so soon.
