I’ve always had a morbid fascination with Jared Leto. On the one hand, he’s undeniably talented. I don’t dislike 30 Seconds to Mars nearly as much as I probably should, and the man’s been in several movies that I genuinely like. (Requiem for a Dream always gets a chuckle out of me.) On the other hand, if you look up “hipster douchebag” in any decent dictionary you’ll find no words, just a series of pictures of Jared Leto. Hipster Runoff concurs, sort of, and has a long post on why Jared Leto is the most desirable alt man in the world. Nothing scientific, just a blend of attitude and unexamined feelings — îin other words, a quintessentially hipster approach. The post’s conclusion seems definitive:

Jared Leto seems desirable. Jared Leto seems like a visionary. Jared Leto seems like he exists on a different plane of humanity than most people. Jared Leto seems like he can “bang” any alt baguette in the world.

Not exactly news, but the item became newsworthy when it was picked up by other sources, and it’s now the number one news item on Leto’s IMDb page, which makes it more or less official. Appropriately enough, the page features a series of pictures of Jared Leto. Just to really drive the point home.
