Ugly Naked Guy from Friends was always a bit of an illusive myth. We watched the gang watch him from afar (well, over the road to be precise), we saw the back of his head when Ross went over the bribe him into selling him his flat (season five FYI – and he managed to do it), but that was literally it. His face never, ever appeared on screen. Call him a mysterious kinda guy if you will, until now.
The people over at Huffington Post decided to make it their mission to hunt down the man who played Ugly Naked Guy, and that they did. Staff writer Todd Van Luling took on the year-long quest like a true solider, he dug and dug and discovered that the show never credited the actor, so finding out his true identity would probably be excruciatingly difficult. The internet even told him Ugly Naked Guy was played by actor Michael Hagerty, but Michael it was not. Michael Hagerty actually played superintendent Mr. Treeger – two completely different people guys.
A long year later, a lot of social media hunting and emailing Todd found him. Played by an actor called Jon Haugen, this is the real Ugly Naked Guy. Todd, we’ll be forever thankful for your stellar investigative journalism skills. The wait is over, here he is in the flesh, and by flesh, we mean here's a photograph of him...
