LISTEN up Ladies. Hunky Gossip Girl star Ed Westwick is in town and, yes, he's single.
The soccer-mad actor and No.1 Chelsea supporter told Confidential he is also a big fan of our own Eric Bana, and would love to follow in his footsteps.
"I loved him in Chopper. It's my all-time favourite movie. He was terrific in that and Troy was great.''
Gossip Gal commitments are keeping the easy-going guy from branching out too far, yet he has recently undertaken the role of Johnny in Chalet Girl, which features veterans Bill Nighy and Brooke Shields.
The New-York based Brit says he's on quick break between TV and film commitments and is in Sydney for Virgin.
Dressed in well fitted clothes and sporting designer stubble, the actor was looking pretty hot.
Despite reports he has been rekindling a romance with exotic co-star Jessica Szohr, whom he broke up with in April, it seems the down-to-earth British dude is definitely single and does not go back for seconds like his charmingly creepy onscreen character Chuck Bass.
"I saw Chace [Crawford] one night but that's it," he said.He told Confidential he had not seen any of his cohorts during the lengthy Gossip Girl production break.
Then last night on Nova radio, Westwick, who celebrated his 23rd birthday in London on Sunday with friends and family, was speaking about the tattoo on his chest which reads "Heartbreak Hotel", suggestively saying "there are vacancies".
Westwick also gave away a little G.G. hint to us, saying his billionaire persona Bass goes through "a very drastic change" at the start of season four, which starts filming next week.
