Penn Badgley to the elite class of sitcom watchers who have stuck around since Blair Waldorf and Serena van der Woodsen read their first 'xoxo's is no less than a sanctuary. This status only further solidified as the actor went on to work in You. Badgley's ability to fit any shoes and remain charming while also keeping the eeriness intact has resulted in a fanbase that cannot have enough of his surprises.

While the release date of You Season 5 remains undecided, Badgley is not out of surprises for his fans as he strikes a chord with an underrated gem from the other side of the peninsula.

One of the reasons why the hype around You never ends all year round is the fact that Penn Badgley loves to indulge with his fans. While he makes sure to roast them and their questionable fondness towards his character, he also keeps the show running with his quirks. However, it seems that one such quirk that went unnoticed was his love for the Asian artist Arooj Aftab. The Pakistani songstress took to her X account to announce that Badgley and she will be collaborating for the 'Night Reign' music video.

The singer is known for her ethereal tunes that often dwell in jazz and minimalism. Furthermore, for her collaboration with Penn Badgley, it is unclear if Aftab has roped him in for the aesthetic essence or to ring in some tunes of his own. In the short clip shared by her, the two can be seen bonding over their shared absence of chess knowledge. However, fans will have to wait until Thursday to see what the two have cooked up.

While it is unclear now, it would be quite the treat to see Badgley belt out his tunes next to Arooj Aftab, especially because it has been quite a while since the actor flexed his musical nerve.

Due to his overwhelming popularity in the acting realm, it is a fact unknown to many that Penn Badgley has been serenading audiences with his tunes for a long time. The actor is a part of the indie pop band called MOTHXR. As the band's popularity boosted around 2016, Badgley as the frontman was often the light of the party. However, not much has been heard from them since, with the last official release being 'Easy' in 2016.

While the band may not be actively releasing music, they are yet to announce a breakup. It is likely that Badgley had to set his guitar aside to focus on his flourishing acting career. However, with Season 5 of his hit show on the way, the actor has made way for what fans are anticipating is going to be a masterpiece with Arooj Aftab.
