Benoit Poelvoorde
"Don't be surprised by the stubble", said Peolvoorde, an actor in his 40s who is a star in France and Belgium but little known on the international scene.
"We have decided to stop shaving for as long as Belgium has no government," he said in a 30-second clip on http://video.rtlinfo.be/video/261395.aspx.
"Let's keep our beards until Belgium rises again," he added.
The country, divided over the fate of its Dutch- and French-speaking regions, has been rudderless since an inconclusive June 13 general election.
