Though we’ve seen him shirtless before in photo shoots, Darren Criss had never ditched the natty argyle and bowties for sweaty wifebeaters and bare flesh on Glee. Until last night, that is. Check out the above video to see him spar angrily with a punching bag and take a post-boxing shower, all the while performing Christina Aguilera’s “Fighter.”
Click through for more stills of Darren getting sweaty, steamy, and shirtless.

Fun episode but Darren / Blaine as boxer, LOL. Wish Bomer had been in shower!

Picture 4 looks like someone’s taking him from behind.
Moo
Everyone needs a montage.

Unless I’m wrong (which I could be), most of the photos I’ve seen of Darren in the past he had a nicely hairy chest. This time he was very smooth. I guess a teen in school wouldn’t bee that hairy? Such a shame. He looked like a wet plucked chicken.

I love Darren. He’s so cute. I would have loved high school if he was my boyfriend.

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO HIS CHEST HAIR!!?
It’s like buying a Mercedes without leather seats. Sure it’s nice, but something is missing!
JAW

did they shave his pubes too??
soooo sad

FYI – he’s not gay.
They probably could’ve kept his chest hair. I remember a guy in high school gym class being very hairy – it’s not that uncommon with youth.

Darren prior to the shave down, bet his weiner looks like a plucked chicken too.
