Chastened By ‘Chesthairgate,’ Mario Lopez Vows to Never Go Shirtless Again

3:30AM Defamer Hollywood | Though newly minted Extra host Mario Lopez may appear squeaky-clean, longtime readers of Defamer will remember the oh-so-smooth skeleton in his closet: Chesthairgate!

‘Twilight’ Star Robert Pattinson Wonders Why You’re So Afraid of His Chest Hair

Also, two bonus bits: Pattinson’s thoughts on the latest, controversial Twilight installment and messy vampire babies! What more do you need to sink your teeth into?
