Actor Ryan Phillippe has been caught admiring his own peachy bum in a painting of his infamous nude scene from Cruel Intentions.

The actor was snapped by his former co-star and Buffy icon, Sarah Michelle Gellar, while the pair, along with their other co-star Selma Blair, were attending a Cruel Intentions-themed art exhibit in Los Angeles.

Gellar snapped a few pics of the event including one of her, Blair, and Phillippe in front of a painting of a scene after Blair and Gellar’s kiss.

Sarah Michelle Gellar captioned her post: “Art and surprises on my birthday. What a special day.”

But the best image by far is that of Ryan admiring his own bottom, which looks… good. It looks good!

One person tweeted a cropped image of Ryan saying: “Same Ryan Phillippe Same”

Another person tweeted: “I’m glad everyone recognises that Ryan Phillippe’s butt in Cruel Intentions was ART!”

The 1999 teen drama also stars Reese Witherspoon and adapts the 1782 novel Les Liaisons Dangereuses but sees it set in the world of filthy rich high-schoolers in New York City. 

The Attitude May/June issue featuring the cast of Heartstopper is out now.
