Gossip Girl's Chuck Bass, whose real-life name is Ed Westwick, is in this month's Interview, where he does his usual "too cool for private school because I'm Chuck Bass" thing.

The 21-year-old actor talks about being over playing high school kids, that band he is too busy for until he needs a backup plan, how New York City is the greatest because he's young...typical cool-kid stuff.

Of course, part of being street is tattoos, even if that does mean British Airways won't let you on their planes. That's just something you gotta sacrifice. Ed lists off a few of his tattoos, so here's the count:

"I’m a big fan of Elvis, man. I got 'Heartbreak Hotel' tattooed on my chest. Yeah, and I’ve got '21 Grams,' 'Love Me Two Times,' the song by the Doors. I have 'I Heart Romance' on my forearm and 'You Make Me Feel Like the One' across my shoulder."

And get this, that "I Heart Romance" one isn't even a song title, it's just something he saw written on a bathroom stall in Brooklyn and he thought it was cool.

Yes, he has plans for more, "Way more—they're addictive," he says. One day, he'll be a human word search that doesn't fit into his chinos, and where will that leave Chuck Bass?
