Ever wondered who played Ugly Naked Guy in Friends?

For years Ugly Naked Guy was balked at by the Friends gang on the show and we never once saw his face – until now.

This is the answer to an age-old question that we never knew we needed. Yep, we could not BE anymore excited.

For years the Friends gang always had a good (or slightly disgusted) time looking across the street into the apartment window of Ugly Naked Guy.

His face was never shown, even after Ross hung out with him (also naked) in his apartment.

But one determined Friends fan, Todd Van Luling, from Huffington Post got to the bottom of the investigation (it took him a year, by the way) and revealed his identity.

Ugly Naked Guy’s real name is Jon Haugen, and this is what he looked like at the time.

He told Huffington Post: “The reason I never came forward was because I was just keeping it mellow because Warner Brothers was keeping it mellow. They wanted everybody to have a guess who I was.

“I wasn’t really expecting them to call me back for me to do it again.

“It was the best time in my life. I was the man.”

And good news, both he and Ross, played by David Schwimmer, weren’t actually naked in that scene.

“We were just in boxer shorts and they made it look like we were naked.”

He added: “I was hoping they would bring me back and we’d do some more. Maybe we can create a buzz and get everybody back together.”
