Mar 5 2007Josh Hartnett sort of beats people up

Josh Hartnett was involved in a bar fight last month in New York and his rep was spinning it that he was standing up for a woman's honor. But now witnesses have come forward saying it was basically his entourage kicking some guy's ass while he stood around watching:
"Hartnett was with a group of very aggressive guys and two girls," said a Whiskey Ward patron. "One of the girls in his group claimed a guy in the bar pushed her, and Josh's friends started getting really heated." "At about 4:15, a group of guys jumped [a fellow patron]," said a female witness to the incident. "They threw him to ground and kicked him. And Josh was just standing by and watching." Friends of Hartnett, along with his reps, denied that account, and said he tried to stop the fight by loudly saying, "Everyone just relax and grow up." His pals also claim the other guys were the aggressors, and that one of them "cold-clocked" a member of the actor's crew in the head.
So who are we supposed to believe? The multiple witnesses at the bar or the guy who thought those glasses were a good idea. Personally the only person I trust in all this is my leprechaun friend Bojangles. He lives on my shoulder and tells me to steal things.

Awww Josh is trying to show the world that HE wanted to be Harry Potter!! He's not taking those glasses off until he lands the role in the last movie.

So that's how actors get in fights? By proxy?

I am clearly getting older because I never know who half of these people are, including Josh Hornet.
He looks like a Sigmund Freud impersonator.

The only way this guy could be more gay would be if he were dating someone as hot as Scarlett Johanssen and broke up with her. Wait...wait... Yes, he already did that.

Come on, some chick tells her guy friends that some guy pushed her in a bar at 4:00am? Of course at that time beer muscles are in full force. I wonder if the girl said "whoever beats up that guy can do me." Of course, Josh, still pondering the lose of Scarlett, responded to her offer and said, "as with this fight, can I stand around and watch you get it?"
What is with that facial hair that looks like he glued it on from some old halloween costume. If you can't grow facial hair, don't do it, it makes you look like a....well, you see what he looks like.
12. Spindoc - March 5, 2007 10:17 AM
I thought only Child molesters or people with cars up on blocks in front of their trailor parks had wispy moustache's like that.
Seriously, with that thing on his lip he looks like he should be down in the basement cooking up a batch of meth.

Josh, aunt Dee Dee has been looking for those glasses for about a month. You know at 70 she doesn't have much to do but crossword puzzles and complain about "them darkies."
P.S. Drop by sometime, she misses those footrubs.
14. schadenfreudelicious - March 5, 2007 10:24 AM
..at one time I actually thought Josh was a decent looking guy...I take that back, he looks like Harry Potter with a bad porn 'stash.
15. Carsten5577 - March 5, 2007 10:27 AM
He looks like a nerd.
16. itspat - March 5, 2007 10:44 AM
those are the glasses he puts on when he thinks there might be a fight.
17. fearsarewishes - March 5, 2007 11:02 AM
OK, friends of Josh Hartnett, the phrase is not "cold-clocked", but rather it is "cold-cocked" or sometimes "coldcocked."
Of course, none of Josh's boyfriends would know that because they keep each other cocks nice and toasty by jamming them in each other's mouths and buttocks.
Isn't that nice?
18. DingleberryJam - March 5, 2007 11:15 AM
are there even lenses in those frames?
What he really needs is a magnificent neckbeard and a WWE wrestling t-shirt to pull his look together.
19. diarrhea riot - March 5, 2007 11:19 AM
Sweet pube-stache.

Screw fag boy - I'd like to know more about this Bojangles you speak of...
21. Lizzle - March 5, 2007 11:26 AM
The only thing that resembles a pussy more than Josh Hartnett himself is that beard/goatee thing he has growing on his face.
22. Niecy - March 5, 2007 11:36 AM
Please tell me this is his look for a part in a movie.
I kind of believe his friends' story. Josh was probably standing there, drinking a beer, saying "Stop it guys" in the way people say it when they really don't care if you stop or not.
23. SuburbanCowboy - March 5, 2007 11:40 AM
Yup, the term is Cold-Cocked. not clocked.
That is almost as annoying as when people say "Butt-naked" instead of the proper term "Buck Naked".
24. D'oh Eyes - March 5, 2007 11:46 AM
Wow, and to think I used to consider him hot. Those glasses and I-think-I-can goatee make him look like a pedophile professor.
25. TashaVin` - March 5, 2007 11:56 AM
Hmm. I do not like how he's got the Johnny Depp attempt on his face. Only Johnny is allowed to have scraggly lip hair.
26. NipsyHustle - March 5, 2007 12:03 PM
isn't this the guy whose been digging a hole to scarlett's heart via her vag?
27. mygodisthatyouranus? - March 5, 2007 12:05 PM
I heard Josh got so excited watching the men fight that a little bit of Astroglyde squirted out of his ass.
28. MR_DG - March 5, 2007 12:06 PM
#25 I agree, Depp is the only one that can pull that off. Well......Depp and my aunt from Italy.
29. NipsyHustle - March 5, 2007 12:08 PM
i would fuck johnny depp's dick off then take it home to complete my shrine.
30. LL - March 5, 2007 12:32 PM
Wow, I didn't think there was a way to make Josh Hartnett look bad. My mistake. Yeah, very few dudes can pull off the almost-mustache, and he's not one of 'em. Depp, for sure. Mmmm... Johnny Depp.
31. MR_DG - March 5, 2007 12:51 PM
NipsyHustle: I think theres laws that wouldnt allow that! :-p COME ON LADIES SETTLE DOWN NOW! He's a TOOL!
32. crestlin - March 5, 2007 1:01 PM
#19 & 21 that's exactly what i thought about his four or five facial hairs...josh, please take some tweezers and pluck them off. i'm not even going to comment on the wanna-be-johnny depp-one-size-too-small glasses.
33. suzy - March 5, 2007 1:09 PM
can someone please tell him that he will never be Johnny Depp.
34. lickmybutt - March 5, 2007 1:22 PM
i say the girl that said the doode pushed her is to blame. my guy friends would do the same. and josh can be hot, definitly not with that creepy mustache, but he can be. but damn is it a shame that he wasnt actually the one fighting... that would be hot.
35. NipsyHustle - March 5, 2007 1:35 PM
please stop. all this talk about johnny is making me moist downstairs.
36. Stink - March 5, 2007 2:40 PM
See? If everyone wore glasses there'd be world peace. Or a planet full of geeks.
37. Bree - March 5, 2007 3:01 PM
I like how he just stood there watching, and this still makes news. Oh well, at least he's attempting to look slightly intelligent. Although he looks a bit ape-ish and the pubes on his face are a bit disturbing.
38. HollyJ - March 5, 2007 3:46 PM
That's a great pic of Nancy McKeon.
39. pekpekshorts - March 5, 2007 4:57 PM
It's Scarlett who screws the whole town. Not Hartnett!
40. NicotineEyePatch - March 5, 2007 6:03 PM
What's up with the duo-hairdo? It's feathered back on one side, Caesared on the other. And the hornrims are very "I'm an old school James Dean fan!". So he probably knew that someone would pick a fight with him because of the hair, and he wore the glasses as a protective measure. The tie and moustache were so he wouldn't get carded at the door.
Moustache? Sorry, chocolate milk stain.
41. amelie3007 - March 5, 2007 6:18 PM
Wow he's hot! (and I'm not being sarcastic)
42. TashaVin` - March 5, 2007 7:15 PM
^5 @# 29, but I'd rather keep him as a play thing for a while... you know, my cat toy. :o)

Fuck, that was weak, man.
Worst one ever.
45. DrunkBlogger - March 5, 2007 9:38 PM
All I know about this picture is that he looks like the White Trash Version of Johnny Depp...which is an oxymoron in itself if you really, really, really think about it hard. Of course, I wouldn't, because I actually like Johnny Depp.
46. Candycane - March 5, 2007 10:27 PM
The guys at the bar were aggressive because they had just seen a Josh Hartnett movie.
After sitting through "Wicker Park", I was ready to start kicking some serious ass, too.

Superimpose pictures and make them up if need be... i'm starting to sweat over here...
49. HughJorganthethird - March 6, 2007 9:52 AM
Kicked him eh? about what I would expect from this pussy and his crew of sodomites.
If you can't kick this shirley's ass you should just hang em up.

Are the East Coast and the West Coast nerds beefing again?

Almost Harry Potter, kind of retro Johnny Depp, mostly NOT sexy anymore!
52. Kelvin - March 7, 2007 2:37 AM
You're freakin' nuts.
Bojangles lives on MY shoulder, and he's telling me to whoop your ass .
53. littledoll - March 7, 2007 11:28 PM
Nerd boy deserves to get his face punched on a daily basis!!! Why didn't someone beat this twerp at the bar? I would have loved to kick the crap out of him at school-- *Another useless hollyweirdo actor.
54. Yourfairytale - March 10, 2007 7:18 PM
Hartnett is still smoking hot. But the shape and color of the glasses do nothing for him. He needs some good old-fashioned black, plastic-rimmed Buddy Holly glasses. Those are SEXY! He needs to get rid of the goatee too.
55. HollywoodSnark - March 23, 2007 6:04 PM
what a cock....has his goons beat up a person
56. james - February 27, 2008 7:05 PM
he had laser hair removal on his beard. you can see how patchy it is in 30 days of night. that yak beard thing is a blatant cover up. lol. don't fret josh, it will eventually all grow back!
57. ainur - May 20, 2008 3:58 PM
josh wears what he feels is comfortable for him...I wouldn't interfere a fight as well if I were him... get bruises and for what? for some drunkies? no thx...he really does look great in most anything and the fact that he does not care about what people like u would say makes him even smarter...u just envy him which is fairly understandable but puh-lease don't tell me he looks like a geek and that he isn't attractive...come on, that's obvious he damn is...
