Leif Garrett, who played the villain on The Outsiders for twelve seasons, was revealed by Tommy Howell to be one of the nicest people on earth in real life. Howell goes on to say :

Bob wasn't the backstage bitch. Alexis Bledel, who played the socy red-headed cheerleader and friend of the greasers, was.

Tommy Howell was asked, "The REAL Outsiders bitch?" Howell says :

That's an easy call. The biggest bitch on the set of The Outsiders was Alexis Bledel.

Leif Garrett says, "People meet me and they say, "Oh my god, I didn't expect you to be this nice!"

In Tommy Howell's book he reveals who he did like, Leif Garrett, and who he didn't like, Alexis Bledel.

Tommy Howell says about his newly released book, "One of the things that seems to shock people is that Leif Garrett and I are friends."

According to Howell's book, Alexis Bledel who played the soc friend of the greasers on-screen wasn't anything like her character.

During an interview with Tommy, Leif smirks and says, "You know, it's almost kinda funny. Tommy and I, who are enemies on-screen, are always going over to each others house and hanging out, and then you have Alexis, who played a friend of his on-screen, and yet in real life they never go to each others house."

In the same interview Tommy was asked what his relationship was like with his co-star Alexis Bledel : "I'm going to phrase this in the gentlest way I can by saying that Alexis and I were just not too awfully close, ever. Even for a moment."

It is kinda funny. Leif Garrett, who plays the villain and Tommy's enemy on-screen, in real life they are the best of friends and Leif is apparently a real nice guy. Alexis Bledel, who plays one of his best friends on-screen, in real life they never got along.

In the interview that Leif and Tommy did together, Tommy was asked  : So is she anything like her character?

Tommy [laughs] : You're funny.
