2013 was the year we learned that Clint Eastwood’s son Scott looks like a frat-boy version of Clint. We also learned that Scott Eastwood can look extremely hot from some angles, and not so much from other angles. Like, his Town & Country photoshoot was amazing, and he looked totally bangable. Then, in red carpet photos, Scott just looked… blah. So, it really does depend on the angles and the lighting. Still, Town & Country is still pushing Scott – probably because they still have more photos of him that they wanted to publish. Scott made T&C’s “Top 50 Bachelors” edition. Scott is #1. Seriously. And so there’s a new interview. Scott might be a nice guy, but maybe not so much with the talking.
On the commotion his shirtless T&C photo shoot caused: “I heard some things. But, to be honest, I was in London filming a movie [the World War II drama Fury] and didn’t pay much attention. These things come and go. No one will remember six months from now.”
On the lessons his parents taught him: “My father taught me not to overthink things, that nothing will ever be perfect, so just keep moving and do your best. My mother taught me to be honest, to be selfless, and to touch people in a positive way.”
On the type of woman he likes to date: “The kind who’s not afraid to be alone, who leaves her phone at home.”
On his Fury costar, Brad Pitt: “He’s a kind and humble person, which is everything in this world.” Eastwood aspires to Pitt’s career not only because “he’s a great actor, but because he’s proactive about developing material and getting stuff made.”
He’s not a thespian: “I love acting, but I’m not a thespian. I want to be a man’s man, not a glitzy pop star.” That doesn’t preclude, however, an appreciation for glitzy pop stars. “I love Katy Perry and Rihanna,” he admits, confessing with something approaching glee that he sings along to their songs.
I love it when people proudly proclaim that they don’t “overthink things.” I’m not promoting my particular brand of neurosis, but to me, saying that you “don’t overthink things” is like saying you can’t be bothered to expand your education or pay attention to anything more complicated than The Bachelor. As for Scott not wanting to be a pop star… yeah, we’ll see. Scott also wanted people to think he was up for the Christian Grey role, so there is part of him that just wants to be famous for fame’s sake.

He could get it. Dayum.
Yep just stand there and look good… And flex teehee
Yea I’d smash that to bits. Mm.
What’s with T&C’s special camera? This guy only looks good in their spread.
He looks like a frat guy.
Yup.
And photoshopping. Don’t forget the photoshopping. Instant bangableness.
Speak for yourself, dear. I would have banged the life out of him in the T&C shoot AND in those Red Carpet pics.
No. I thought he was hot in the pics, but on the red carpet wasn’t impressed at all. Next.
He inherited Clint’s good looks but none of his charisma.
Nope, not even the looks. Clint’s offspring aren’t all that, are they?
I thought a thespian and an actor were one and the same. Either way, he doesn’t do it for me. I know I shouldn’t judge a book by its cover (but let’s be real), but he seems dumb as a bag of rocks.
I agree. He should just stand there and not speak. It ruins everything!
He’s not a thespian??? What is that supposed to mean? Is that a dis on anyone who actually studies the craft of acting? I guess he wants to be a Johnnie One Note like his dad in terms of acting talent but be as prolific in terms of success in the movie making industry.
Since he’s not a thespian, I guess that means don’t expect him to do theater,(like people would ever be running to see Scott Eastwood on stage), or be in a film with Sean Penn, Daniel Day Lewis or Dame Judi Dench.
And he somehow equates thespian with “glitzy pop star”. I’m being nitpicky, but I despise when illegitimate children of celebrities (who were spurned by their fathers) talk about them nonstop when they become famous. See Tim McGraw who was raised by his mother and stepfather but only ever talked about the biological father who wanted nothing to do with him while he was growing up.
Illrgitimate is a not really the point. Can’t blame that on the kid.
I wonder if he is trying to say he isn’t the stereotype of a male actor: the gay theater geek. The way he opposes “Thespian” with being a “Mans Man” evokes that feeling.
But, but, but….isn’t his father, the actor, a manly man?
Is he saying his father is not a thespian? Is he saying his father is a thespian therefore not manly? Colour me confused. 🙂
Seems to me he’s saying ‘ I plan on using nepotism to be an actor without paying any dues, but, hey, being an actor does not mean that you are a fairy. I am NO fairy!’
BTW, Daddy’s no prize, on any level.
if it makes him feel better, i would never consider calling him a thespian
‘Overthink’ means to think about something too much for too long.
What he’s saying is clear, and he the used the word correctly. I’m not sure how one gets “…can’t be bothered to expand your education or pay attention to anything more complicated than ‘The Bachelor'” from the word ‘overthink’, but I guess that has to do with people you’ve had to deal with.
+1
Why is this nobody still talking?
You are, aren’t you? Why can’t he?
Reg the “thespian” thing, I take it that he was being completely honest. He likes acting and what fame can give you, but he understands his own limits. I kinda like this interview, he seems to have pleasant enough personality, and I wish he keeps it like that. I agree, though, that his look is not all that.
Kaiser– your bias is showing. You are upset that Cumby wasn’t named T & C’s #1 bachelor, admit it! When you say there are some pics that Scott looks good in and some not. Well, that is true of Cumby too. Personally I’d take Scott anyday over Cumby! Maybe next time Cumby will win #1–we know he is #1 with you!
I’ll would go even further and say Cumby is NOT good looking in the least…I don’t get all the swooning over him…just my opinion….
I don’t get it either. Finally watched Star Trek Into Darkness last week – it was the first thing I’ve seen Cumberbatch in. He has a beautiful voice, but either than that, he was completely forgettable to me. Zachary Quinto was the highlight of that movie to me. Ah well, the ladies on here enjoy Cumby so I’ll try not to bash him too much! 😀
@littlestar
Zachary Quinto==HOT. God, I watched American Horror Story: Asylum for him. He is hot.
I find that as I’m getting older, my attraction (in celebrities mind you) tends to go from hot to talented and articulate. Like when I was 13, m two main men were Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson. But it was really Ralph that did my panties for a while–not because I didn’t find Liam less attractive or less talented–but because Ralph seemed a lot more exciting–you know what I mean?
Liam was married, had kids, did his work, and stayed out of the limelight. Ralph was a free agent who slept with stewardesses in airplane bathrooms, was rumored to be super freaky in the sack (to be fair, I hadn’t heard about how big Liam’s dick was, and one of the first posts I read was the rumor about him and Angelina Jolie having freaky s&m sex in motel rooms), and I saw The English Patient.
But point is, Liam seemed to be boring, compared to Ralph. But now I love Liam even more, because he IS a family guy. He seems like a great guy to have as a friend (with benefits, hehehe)—loyal, doesn’t like to go out and be seen, is perfectly content to stay home and interact with you, etc. But now that I’m older, I’m not into being excited all the time. I think that’s where a lot of people my age (and older) get caught up–they think that being with someone should always mean that you’re having really hot sex, or going on adventures all the time–but then real life (read: puking kids, work, etc) comes in, and all of a sudden it’s not so fun anymore.
I don’t know–I don’t really like bad boys anymore. Like one of my recent crushes is Steven Spielberg. He and Liam Neeson are my two fantasy husbands (Ralph is on the shamef-ck list)—God, do I love him. Just what he accomplished at his age (directed Jaws at like 26), how nerdy he is–how honest he was about hating his father, and how his films reflected that (like in E.T. the dad left the family for a new woman).
I’ll shut up now–I ‘talk’ too much 🙂
And–I think Cumby is hot. I thought he was odd looking when I saw pictures, but he is so goofy–I think it’s endearing. I love his voice–I can imagine how he gets when he gets his freak on. I do feel bad for him, especially when he was a kid–how many girls do you think made fun of him for his looks–I bet they regret it now. I think he’s hot (although I prefer Khan Cumby–not Sherlock Cumby).
Oh Virgilia, you know I enjoy your long wonderful posts :D. I actually don’t think Cumberbatch is as “horrible” looking as some posters on here say he is. He’s interestingly attractive, but honestly, while his acting was good, it was no where near as good as Quinto’s performance as Spock. He did have a sexy voice though. And weirdly enough, my husband started watching Asylum yesterday! Quinto doesn’t get the accolades and credit he deserves.
You know, the older I get (I’m 29), the less attracted I am to celebrities. I’ll ALWAYS have a soft spot for my Brad Pitt, but theres no one else out there I’d throw my panties at. I used to LOVE Ralph Fiennes too, my gahd did my teenage self get all hot and bothered by him hahaha. But he hasn’t aged very well to me, sadly :(. If I have one celebrity crush, it would actually be a “bad boy”, the wrestler CM Punk. LOL I know its ridiculous but his body and wrestler persona is just so hot to me.
Ironically, for me, I like Brad Pitt as a person, as an actor–but he’s never done IT for me. I think he’s just too clean cut, all American handsome for me–maybe that would’ve changed if I been reading gossip since 2000ish, and had seen firsthand all the hobo looks that he tried out. I think he’s pretty, but he’s too pretty for me.
I like my pretty actors to be foreign 😉
I think that beyond the hair loss, Ralph looks pretty much the same–but God. He’s so douchey. I read from Cecilia (or Esmom, can’t remember who) that he had an affair with his costar on Hamlet (which I knew), but afterwards went to his wife and said that he wanted a divorce. The wife said that she knew they had issues, but thought they were committed to working it out–douche move, Ralph.
I could see if he found himself attracted to this woman (Francesca Annis–who is smokin’ hot, to be honest), and went to his wife and said look, this is what’s going on, we either fix this or we don’t, and THEN get separated/divorced, and go on your merry way. But sneaking around is something that I hate. I don’t think he and his wife (I can’t remember her name, it was Alex something–she’s an actress) would’ve lasted, because from what I read, he married her shortly before his mom died–it really was a wedding for his mom. He never really wanted marriage or kids, and she really did. But still–he could’ve been an adult about it.
But yeah, right around 16, the lust kind of faded, when I realized just how douchey he was. I still think he’s hot, and a nice guy–when you’re not in a relationship with him. I wonder how he and Liam’s relationship is now. Neither of them get pap’d much, but I’m actually really surprised they were friends. Although Liam went through women like tissues, I’ve read that he was always very respectful of the women that he dated, they were always friendly after they broke up, and he really wanted to get married and have kids–which obv. he did. Ralph seems to have a more quieter, but no less playboy lifestyle.
SPOILER ALERT ABOUT ASYLUM (if you were watching it too)
And I liked ‘Asylum’, up until they started with that whole alien bs. Really? The entire storyline was fantastic–a nun possessed by the devil, a nazi in hiding, a hypocritical, yet self flagellating nun, a lesbian reporter trying to get a story, and a crazy serial killer with a mommy fetish–why ruin all that with ALIENS!!!
///end rant///God.
I have so many celebrity crushes, it’s not even funny–but I’m young and I can get away with it 😉
Plus it helps that I do all my gushing on this site, not in real life. It’s also rather ironic, because I have no real interest in dating–I can’t figure out if it’s just that I don’t want to, or if it’s because there isn’t anyone that I would want to date, where I live. They’re all morons, honestly. My mom and I were talking last night–she said that if she was my age right now, she wouldn’t want to date the men now either.
My celebrity crushes are all old guys–the youngest one isn’t under thirty. I hate to see what that means for me. Now that I’m an age, where all these thirty or forty (or older) something celebrities are dating 19 year old girls (my age!!), it seems a lot more icky to me, than it did when I was younger. I don’t know why. Like with the Joaquin Phoenix post–that could’ve been ME (with bigger boobs). Which seems really creepy–although I consider myself to be fairly smart, I am not mature enough to date someone that much older than me.
Although, my offer to be a trophy wife to Liam still stands–forever. I don’t care if he’s old enough to be my grandpa 😉
Oh child, if you have to call yourself a man’s man… Other than that, I approve of his cabana boy looks.
Gad. He is so beautiful just standing there looking manly. Then I read what he says and my ladyflower wilts. How dreadful.
What was wrong with what he said?
Please, please don’t make this guy a thing. There already is too much beige bland frattiness in the country. I promise never to complain about Cumberbatch posts again. Deal?
Lol I love it! I won’t complain about Cumberbatch again either if they stop showing this guy! He’s a true case of he is where he is because of his father.
I love that he said a woman that can leave her phone at home. It’s disturbing how addicted people are to their iPhones. You can’t stand in line for a sub without being on the phone or texting. You can’t be out to dinner without checking your phone continually or even a little. You can’t be in a car driving without once making a call or taking a call or texting at a traffic stop. Stop the madness. We;ve all been there to a small degree, at the very least, but to many, and usually the younger generation in their teens and twenties (but not always just that age) it’s an addiction, always connected, not comfortable with your own thoughts without interruption.
TOTALLY AGREE!
I agree and I’m the worst offender. I’m compelled to look at my phone every few seconds, it’s bad.
This. It’s disturbing how addicted everyone is to anything tech. My 10 year old is the worst offender in my family. When my husband and I talk about our childhoods where (horror!!!) we went outside and played all day til our moms called us in for dinnet, he acts like we’re from the stoneage. But that’s what we did and we used something called our imaginations which sadly many kids nowadays just don’t seem to grasp. And after we would come in for dinner, we would go back outside til it started to get dark. At the end of the day we were tired and dirty, fell into bed and got up the next day and did it all over again. 🙂
I regularly leave the house sans phone. I hate that that seems to be strange behavior. Sometimes I don’t want to be found.
I hate to tell you Scottie-boy, but man’s men don’t do photoshoots for Town and Country magazine.
Hee-hee. He’s a Sear’s man.
I still think he’s a better christian grey base on pure looks ie he just scream rich well from these pics imo
Oh my God–just shut up and look pretty. Emphasis on the shut up part.
Seriously though, I am projecting, but he seems like he’d be terrible in bed. The male equivalent of a woman just laying there and making the guy do all the work. He’s too frat boyish–and I don’t think he knows what ‘thespian’ means. But whatevs…..no one’s paying to see him act. They’re paying to see him without his shirt on.
I don’t know–because I think that he’d be shitty in bed, I would not nail it to the wall. Maybe I’d let him buy me drinks. 😉
He needs to keep his hair styled like this and not how it’s been on the red carpets.
Some translations:
“On the lessons his parents taught him: “My father taught me not to overthink things, that nothing will ever be perfect, so just keep moving and do your best.”
My dad is Clint Eastwood. That means I can pretty much do whatever I like without having to worry about consequences.
“On the type of woman he likes to date: “The kind who’s not afraid to be alone, who leaves her phone at home.”
That makes it so much easier to not call back and I really don’t have to worry about them being lonely when I dump/cheat on them.
“He’s not a thespian: “I love acting, but I’m not a thespian. I want to be a man’s man,”
I like being in movies because then people are looking at me and paying me attention, even though I probably can’t act. I want to be a ManFamewhore’s ManFamewhore.
Why does he emphasize on his masculinity a lot,this is not the first time…he should just marry zoe saldana so the two of them can talk about their gender a lot
He’s too pretty now. Another 20 years may help his looks. I don’t see or hear anything about him that makes “man’s man” anything but an aspiration.
The problem w/the red carpet: his hair! Dump the highlights and grow a little face stubble, and we might be back in business!
