The singer leaned into his silver fox status while at Glastonbury Festival in England.
Louis Tomlinson is officially a silver fox.
The singer, 32, embraced his grays while at the Glastonbury Festival in Somerset, England during the last weekend in June. Tomlinson’s normally shaggy brunette hair had wisps of gray strands peeking through, mostly on the sides.
Tomlinson was at the festival with a group of friends and his sister, Lottie Tomlinson. The “Silver Tongues” singer and his crew made waves for bringing a TV onto festival grounds to watch the England football club’s UEFA match because there was nowhere else to watch it during the festival. Thanks to his bold decision, Tomlinson (and his grays) made it all over social media, onto the news (including the BBC!) and into headlines.
Tomlinson’s fans have been quick to swoon over his status as a silver fox, praising him all over every social media platform.
One person captured a video of Tomlinson from one of the newscasts, adding little emojis to the gray hairs and wrote, “I will protect you louis’ gray hair,” while another added, “Louis’ gray hair being one of the most talked about twitter discourse, with locals writing paragraphs to defend him was not on my bingo card. At least everyone is appreciating this silver-fox dilf.”
Tomlinson, who rose to fame as part of One Direction alongside Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, and Niall Horan, has slowly been embracing his gray hair over the past couple of years as he’s gotten older (and the quick-witted and sassy artist would probably have words for us for calling it out).
A few gray hairs have poked through all over his head from time to time, and fans have captured the evidence in plenty of photos that they’ve shared on social media (with fervor). While he hasn’t yet gone fully gray, he’s gone in and out of brown and gray phases — even with his facial hair.
One thing is for certain, his fans, are here for the grays. One fan put it very simply (also quoting one of Tomlinson’s own tattoos): “let’s just say I am a silver fox fan and will always be a silver fox fan. Love the gray hair. It is What it is!”
