Sometimes it's hard to have a good sense of body image when you're bombarded with images of skinny, "cool" guys. Sure Hollywood has had some chubby leading men but their somewhat older and I cannot relate to them. He's 26 years old making us 5 years apart. Jonah has appeared in tons of films most recognizably to most people perhaps, "Superbad," more recently "Cyrus" and "Get Him to the Greek," which inspired today's post. When I saw GHG, I thought that could easily be me which was pretty awesome. You can only imagine how stoked i was when I saw him as the cover star for the latest issue of Nylon for Guys. The clothes were kind of a yawn. I would have preferred that they had sourced an awesome vintage jacket' instead of the Nike, Lacoste, and Burberry. Maybe they were just keeping within his comfort zone. Baby steps! Baby steps! While trying to find a cover shot of the Nylon with Jonah on the cover I stumbled across another cover for Complex magazine from sometime last year.

  1. Yay! Chubsters Unit!

    He's kinda cute, no?

    I agree. They shoulda went with some more "meat and potatoes" looks instead of a fashion plate. He seems more UO/Heritage than high-end. But whatev.

    Great post!
