It's been six long months since we last visited Jon Hamm's ham, but the Daily News reminds us today that the Mad Men star's impressive "co-star" hasn't gone anywhere. Their Confidenti@l gossip column may be cringe-inducing... ah, screw it, click through for 13 photos of Jon Hamm's ham—every time you hear a mouse click, another journalism school goes out of business.
An AMC "insider" told the rag that while filming the sixth season of the show, Hamm was instructed by the network to stop going commando when shooting scenes. Their source, if to be trusted, also confirmed that the season will be set in the late '60s, noting, "This season takes place in the 1960s, where the pants are very tight and leave little to the imagination. Jon’s impressive anatomy is so distracting."
Allegedly Hamm's prominent feature also had to be downsized via Photoshop on past promotional materials, "in order to make his privates more private." The Daily News actually asked Hamm's publicity team for a comment about the actor's penis, and were told: “It is ridiculous and not really funny at all. I’d appreciate you taking the high road and not resorting to something childish like this that’s been blogged about 1,000 times.” Make that 1,0001.
