In my post about Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood yesterday<\/a>, I mentioned \u2013 or proxy-bragged \u2013 that Sarah\u2019s been all about Walton Goggins forever on this site. I\u2019m talking over a decade, almost 15 years, and I mention this because I wonder if she could have predicted, when she was first writing about him, that this amazing actor who was not a household name but who was building a reputation as an actor\u2019s actor, known by those who are meant to know, would in 2025 become\u2026 a Celebrity.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n There is, as you know, a difference, of course. And up until recently, even after Justified <\/em>and The Hateful Eight <\/em>and Tomb Raider, <\/em>some of the bigger projects he\u2019s been in, and also The Righteous Gemstones<\/em> and Fallout, <\/em>Walton was still primarily considered an actor, period. An outstanding actor, never out of work, but an actor, not a celebrity. The White Lotus <\/em>has made him a celebrity.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n People are out here on social media talking about whether or not he\u2019s made receding hairlines sexy, thirsting over his photoshoots, like this one for Man About Town\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n
