Chace Crawford Covers ‘August' Man Magazine

Chace Crawford shows off his ripped triceps in the cover spread for August Man‘s September 2012 issue.

Here is what the handsome actor had to share with the magazine:

On moving to California when Gossip Girl ends: “I’m probably going to buy a house out there, get a backyard, get a grill. Live the domestic life. Maybe I’ll get some plants, step up to a dog.”

On still having to prove himself: “At my level and at my stage, I don’t have the pick of the litter, I don’t have any power, so it’s still about proving myself and chipping away at those preconceived notions that people have of me like, ‘Oh, you’re on a CW show.’ It’s not a really negative connotation, but it sets a certain precedent before I come into a room. It’s nice when I get a surprised reaction like, ‘Oh, that was good.’”
