  • Do the British not believe in eyebrow shaping and grooming for men? It's not unmanly, it enhances one's appearance dramatically. Robert Pattinson would not be the huge megastar he is today if he had been allowed to keep sporting that beetle-browed look he had in the Harry Potter film. And it's what is holding back Daniel Radcliffe from becoming a serious actor: he has a unibrow. It held back the Gallagher brothers, and I'm afraid Daniel will also have a hard road ahead of him until he learns to tweeze or wax.

  • Did Moz lose the weight he gained over the tour? He looks like he did.
    Either way, I still definitely would.

    this charming man

    This is how I'll recall the momentous night i "met" morrissey to my teenage angst-ridden grandchildren when they start going to Sway in NY:

    I was just merrily taking some photos for another vice job -- The Drums at The Old Blue Last. Who are they? Just another indie band. Snapping here, snapping there. Hey, that guy looks like Morrissey. That's funny! Vice will find that funny that a Morrissey doppleganger is running around Shoreditch with a cheesy blazer and chain necklace. The next day it was indeed confirmed that Morrissey was at the show. And Boy George too! Although apparently not together.

    Come to think of it, I should have known it was him. He was standing on his own, and he left on his own, and he went home and cried and wanted to die. I spoke to quite a few people at the show and not one person mentioned anything about him.

    Fucking hell. What a night.

      • There's nothing wrong with being drunk, except when you're led on your arse spewing up the tea-time cauliflower cheese bog-eyed with a perm, but the photographer could of at least re-photo'd him or photoshopped his eye so he looked less like Sloth from The Goonies.

          Ha! Apparently the hipster twat who took the photo did not realise it was really Morrissey. No doubt said hipster twat lists The Smiths as one of their favourite bands on their Myspace/Facebook page...

    One of the most unflattering photos I've seen.
    Nice jacket though - going through a Pasolini tweed phase again perhaps?

    Except for one or two pictures of the band, I doubt that anyone else who was photographed there would be thrilled with the results. They're not awful but seem somewhat begged and rushed overall. Nevertheless, this one of Moz is good enough to know that trying to form an objective impression of The Drums would have been a challenging mission on catching sight of him, if also positioned in that audience. : )

    Good scoop!

  • I'm happy there is a new picture of Morrissey. I want more of that. More pictures. He's not the best looking in this picture (not ugly, but I've seen better), but it's better than nothing. I bet most of the people on this site has at least one picture of themselves where they are not looking their best. At least normally Morrissey is a good looking man.

    I really find it to be very rude some of the remarks people have made on both the original post and this one. I cannot believe some people lack that many brain cells to take the time to put negative energy into the universe .. talk about someone's eyebrows , say a rmark about their dad being at a show or any of the other remarks. Why on earth would they deserve to be dignified in any manner?? I have liked Morrissey since I was a teenager. I truly hope that after last year is is okay.I would be really sad if anything ever happened to him. To analyze a photo someone took of him out for an evening....did he ask you to be up in his business taking his picture????????We all gret our picture taken out somewhere.... You are lucky he ever let you take one. Anyhow, I personally dislike whne people do that to me because there are always photos I cannot stand.If you do not like Morrissey then uh stop talking crap about him and use your time to focus on what you do like . Honestly it is nice that Morrissey is taking time out to do what he likes to do after touring last year.

  • . . . actually this is one of the most worrying photographs I have ever seen of our beloved Morrissey.

    A full-on flash photograph in a dark situation and his pupils are still fully dilated?

    Something is wrong and if you love Morrissey, please send him mega-tons of love for healing and rest.

    Thank you.

  • He has a look about him that says, "Get that camera out of my face." or "Can't I go anywhere without someone snapping a photo?" There is a look of annoyed resignation on his face. I still think he looks as handsome as ever though. Considering this was not a posed shot, I think he looks great!

    Didn't you see the grey up front? Or how he's salt and pepper up top? I'm a 35 year old male and that's how *I'm* going grey.

    And I doubt that he posed for the pic because it looks as if he was caught off guard. Not the best photo I've seen, but certainly not the worst.
