Heath Ledger Burns Our Eyes
Well folks, it might be time to decide once and for all that Heath Ledger has absolutely no fashion sense. He got all layered up in his favorite fingerless gloves, purple hat and hideous sneakers but this time he added some atrocious knee-high socks on the set of The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus in London on Sunday. We're hoping this is a rehearsal of some sort since he is in his own clothes and reading papers so maybe he'll have to shave and shower before shooting actually starts.
