Here’s an easy game to play … can you guess which Academy Award-nominated actor was spied loitering on the streets of NYC this week lookin’ pretty much like a vagabond ragamuffin?
This one should be an easy guess, this particular actor tends to look homeless often (tho, he’d be much more recognizable if he was carting around one of his beloved K-9s). If he happened to have an empty coffee cup or an upturned hat lying at his feet, I’m pretty sure he’d be able to generate quite a bit of change if he waits long enough. After the jump, find out who it is …
Ta-da!! It’s Mickey Rourke, duhvs:
I am just amazed how easily Rourke can make designer duds look bad. The man is the living embodiment of the character he plays in his Academy Award-nominated film The Wrestler … and he is absolutely my pick for Best Actor (tho, I won’t be too upset if Sean Penn wins instead). I’m pretty sure his sense of style will not change if he walks away with a golden statuette this coming Sunday night, which you kinda gotta respect … even if you’d never want to emulate. Did y’all guess correctly?

he’s allowed to look homeless and sad, his pet just died!
That was way to easy Trent:)!! I never get these right and I called this one. Most Academy nominated actors don’t look like this!
I’m way happy that his life appears to be back on track. I hope he wins on Sunday.
I cannot believe this is the same man that I used to lust after back in high school…his Wild Orchid days are long gone.
Anna-I was going to say the same thing about him in 9 1/2 Weeks, Angel Heart (one of the best “twists” movies of all time!) WTF happened to him!? Thank god he can still act.
Uncool Trent. His dog just died yesterday and you are making fun of him? Me thinks he’s sad right now. Once the sting of it wears off, you can go back to trashing his look.
@Mimi — for the record, these photos were taken a few days ago, I’m pretty sure before his dog died last night.
I was gonna say that too – but his dog was real sick since last week… I think he’s a bit unglued by this loss. I read an article that said his dog was the love of his life. He def is a little trainwreckish, but I’m giving him a pass on this.
I think he looks like he always does! Sorry about his doggy though – :(
his dog died on monday. so a couple days ago. probably when these were taken in fact.
He isn’t blending too well for NYC..just sayin’
That is sad about his pet. :(
I am gonna go out on a limb here and suggest that his looks have nothing to do with the dog. (How sad to lose a pet, tho!)
poor mickey, he lost his loki monday. let’s let the poor guy be.
eh, he looks ok, at least his hair looks as if it *may* have been washed recently.
Sad is one thing…Those clothes are another!
ahhh the dog hint totes gave it away,….
I LOVE mickey rourke! Even if he looks like a hobo…
He’s my pick too for Best Actor, he deserves it.
I love stars who make way too much money for their own good and yet still make themselves out to look like a normal person or in Mickey’s case a normal street person. I love it.
I would have waited a few days to post this, personally. If the pics were a few days old anyway, a few extra days later would have been cooler. I vote: tacky.
I TOTALLY GUESSED JOHNNY DEPP. wtf? hahaha.
Oh man, I totally guessed Ashton Kutcher. Ooops!
