Common decency says that you probably shouldn’t go around licking people. Norman Reedus doesn’t give a sh*t about common decency. If he sees something or someone he wants to lick, he’s going to lick indiscriminately, whether they be fellow Walking Dead castmates, fans, or himself.
That’s been going on for years, but he’s now added butt-grabbing to his repertoire.
Reedus, Andrew Lincoln, and Melissa McBride are on the cover of the new Entertainment Weekly, and the two male co-stars shared a private moment that is now splashed across the Internet. And bedroom walls, and lockets, and diaries. Here’s EW picture editor Michele Romero:
“Lincoln and Reedus were behind McBride and Lincoln started laughing and was unable to maintain any actor composure in front of photographer Dan Winters’ camera. Lincoln NEVER breaks character and always maintains his American accent, even on a photo shoot. So this giggle fest was so strange to witness. Lincoln yelled for Reedus to stop and Reedus shouted, ‘Why? No one’s gonna see this!’”
After a little investigating, we realized Reedus had been trying to hold Lincoln’s hand in the photos behind McBride’s back. Reedus knows how to make a great picture and also likes to give great imagery to his fans, so I asked the trio if we could shoot them from behind, and then I told Melissa McBride to turn her head towards the camera. They all complied, and then Reedus and Lincoln gave us something a little extra—taking their bromance to a whole other level. I love this picture because it just happened organically.
Everyone needs a cheeky Norman Reedus.”
And just for photographic evidence’s sake, here’s a picture for proof.
