Jon Hamm, star of AMC’s Mad Men is currently in the spotlight, not because he’ll be back for two more seasons of Mad Men, but because rumor has it he has a big penis. Clearly, this is top news.

Apparently the Huffington Post is the authority on the subject. Google News lists its piece “Jon Hamm’s Private Parts Allegedly Cause A Frenzy On ‘Mad Men’ Set” as the “in-depth” go to source.

The “in-depth” Huffington Post piece points to the New York Daily News’ Confidential, which appears to be the source of the big Jon Hamm penis rumor (or is that Jon Hamm big penis rumor?), or at least the latest round of discussion about it. The article quotes:

“Mad Men” star Jon Hamm’s private parts are causing a stir. Again.

An AMC insider tells Confidenti@l that during filming of the sixth season of the hit show — when the ’60s-style clothing was a tight fit — Hamm was politely instructed by a staffer at the network to please wear underwear while shooting his scenes.

A source tells Confidential that with the season taking place in the 60s, the pants are “tight and leave very little to the imagination,” and that “Jon’s impressive anatomy is so distracting that they politely insisted on the underwear”.

Now that anatomy is the talk of the web, and it’s making the search trends.

Buzzfeed, “where journalism is heading,” has “15 Hilarious Tweets About Jon Hamm’s Penis“.

Just 15? Surely there are hundreds, if not thousands.
