Was Adrien Brody ever cool?

Adrien Brody showed up for the LA premiere of Iron Man 2 last night, trying very hard to convince us that he’s cool. Still cool, or was he ever cool? I’ve never really had the hardcore Brody love that some women have or had, but at one time I did like him and root for him and wish him well. Those general hopes for his good future have sort of been destroyed, just because he started to seem like a tool. Maybe it all fell apart for him when his then-girlfriend Elsa Pataky dumped him for Olivier Martinez about a year ago. Olivier and Elsa are still together, by the way, and Adrien hasn’t dated anyone high-profile since.

Anyway, Adrien showed up at the premiere, and he was sporting this… thing on his face. Lainey at LaineyGossip sort of lit into Adrien for sporting what she termed as “doucheface”. As in, “he definitely fails with that f-cking growth on his face, a douche growth no matter where you are, what part of the world. That sh-t belongs on DoucheFaces. It’s the universal sign of DoucheFace. Adrien is a DoucheFace. And while he’ll try to convince it’s some kind of Euro styles, please let’s all remind him that he owns a FAKE CASTLE in Upstate New York. There is no Euro happening here. There is no Jude Law. There is simply DoucheFace and Done. Done. Dead. Over.” Can you tell she once loved him? That’s the way I would handle it if someone I loved turned up looking like a douche face, too. Say, Gerard Butler. If Gerry ever came to an event with that landing strip facial hair, I would probably be done with him too. It’s gross.

So… here’s my question: Was Adrien Brody ever cool? Or did we just now notice how uncool he is?
