That's a dangler.
Just poking out a wee bit at the pool table. 2015-16-ish?
This was in the Irish Times, May 2026. Promoting either Liaisons or Rivals, maybe both? I don't know because it was paywalled. It's that tricky woven belt again, and also the photo I used for the title card.
I'm wondering now if they didn't intentionally style him this way for the Gauntlet. If you watch that scene again, you can see where the belt is hanging to his knees just like it is here. But then again, how BIG a belt would it have to be to have allll that extra length on it? And it doesn't even look buckled; it looks like they just tied it in a knot around his waist. ?? LOL.
One more in the wild. I think this is from Odessa, but I'm not sure.
BONUS: This one's not about the belt, but it IS an opportunity for me to riff on high fashone. From Man About Town, Spring 2026.
So this is what the kids are wearing, huh? Except, "the kids" probably don't spend six grand on a single outfit. It's all Yves St. Laurent. I shopped the look--shirt, $2400; pants $2800; tie, $300; glasses, $595.
It's really the pants that get me. These are called paper-bag pants, for real. It looks like someone gave him a wedgie, and his stretched-out underwear is hanging over the waistband. But nope, it's just fashion. Apparently, someone gave the Laurent model a wedgie, too, although I bet he'd be easier to wrestle to the ground than Aidan would be:
Listen, for $2800, those fucking pants better clean my house, take me to dinner, change the oil in my car, and then perform sexual favors for me for the rest of the night.
And the pants don't even look like they fit.
Becky and Hilda here didn't pay six hundred bucks for their oversized sun glasses. They only paid about $15. Think of all the arthritis cream and lottery tickets that remaining $585 would buy for Hilda.
All right, now get off my lawn.
Read the new update here: Chapter 58, Boston.
Thanks to everyone following this story!

Rivals + Reductress Headlines (2/?)
Les Liaisons Dangereuses
I was lucky enough to not only see this onstage in London, but recently, I watched the screening, too. I have to say, it was amazing (both times). The production wasn't diminished at all by being screened; if anything, it shone more brightly, both in content and visuals.
I'm so glad I got to see it twice, because I generally absorb things more completely with repeated viewings.
I had great seats at the play, but the screened version allowed me to see details I hadn't caught in the live play. The costumes are just gorgeous, but seeing them on screen allowed me to really study the craftsmanship. For example, Aidan's shoes aren't just simple patent leather, (which I was sure of when seeing the stage version), but they had some sort of pimpy treatment; they glittered. They have either sequins or a crocodile texture. I think the latter, if I had to bet on it. His jewelry (along with everyone else's) is lovely, and you get a good eyeful of the rings he wears, as well as his sexy hands. And also his sexy chest, in a brief scene where his shirt is hanging open. Good lord.
He's so good in it; I really love his interpretation. On the way home from the screening, I kept thinking about it, and the one thing that really stood out (both times) was the vulnerability he brings to the role. It's a different experience without that, and the only one I have for comparison is the Glenn Close movie.
I'm linking my review from the stage version, where I do a bit more comparison between this production and the 1988 film.
I just wanted to encourage anyone who has the chance to catch this in theaters to make sure they do so--it was really well-done; and one of the stand-out performances of the spring season for the National.
Here's a link to the NT to check for screening times and cities.
The winner is... Declan, for his hairy chest and pits. Always.
