You Won't Believe Who This Is

by Tanya Ghahremani

Quick, ignore the headline! It's trivia time! Sunday night's episode of Eastbound & Down featured a very special cameo from a huge, well-known musician — but he looked nothing like the way we're accustomed to seeing him, so it may have been a bit difficult to figure out exactly who he was. Take a look at him in the episode up there, in a screencap courtesy of the New York Times' Dave Itzkoff on Twitter: He looks like a regular joe, not recognizable as anyone famous in the least.

So, who is this guy? I feel like the Jeopardy theme should be playing here, or at least Alex Trebek should be staring everyone down through the screen.

Got nothing?

Get ready for your mind to be blown: That up there is none other than the heart-shaped glasses-loving rocker Marilyn Manson , sans his usual make-up and hair. Don't feel bad if you didn't get this one — it was pretty tough, even I had to stare for a while to really understand who I was looking at. The hair! The hair!

Manson appeared on last night's ep of Eastbound & Down on HBO as a server at a roller rink that Kenny Powers is hanging out in. He wasn't there for long, but it was a pretty memorable appearance — you can't see it in the above photo, but he was wearing bright yellow shorts in the scene. Luckily you can see them in this video below, though! TMZ is a wonderful thing, sometimes.
