RedundantIdiot Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I think its important to point out that he wore eyeliner during the promotion of the trilogy- but he didn't seem to wear much (if at all during the tour). Also, the style of clothes that he wore during the tour wasn't the same that he wore during the videos/promotion of the albums. For example during the tour he mainly wore plain t-shirts or stripy t-shirts, with little or no eyeliner as shown by the pictures below. Meanwhile, in the videos/promotion pictures he wore eyeliner, and in the Oh Love video he is wearing a jacket not too dissimilar to the one he wore the other day. Maybe he chose to get dolled up for the shoot that they did the other day by wearing eyeliner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenXIdiot Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I approve of the short sleeves for the tour...yummy And someone please make sure his pants are tight enough... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlissaGoesRAWR Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 That photo... took me back to 2004, like what the fuck, he can't possibly still be that hot... can he? Oh, but he is... I'd say this has to be some sort of promotional image, right? An album photoshoot, a music video, etc. There's no other reason he'd get that dressed up and beautiful, not that I'm complaining. And if this is the image they're going with this time, I am SO FUCKING EXCITED! I squealed when I first saw that photo. The last time I was that excited for something Green Day-related was when they posted the House of Blues show announcement. And everyone who says the guyliner sucks/he's too old for it/etc. is just fucking wrong, sorry. /end fangirling 20 hours ago, lizziebix said: I love everything about him with guyliner and dark hair. *slinks back out before the neg replies* No, don't disappear! I need someone to help me defend the short, dark and handsome look! 18 hours ago, lizziebix said: I kind of disagree. I think the guyliner is part of his rock 'n roll image. Kind of like the makeup Kiss uses. It's just a part of who he is when proforming. When I told some people at work that Green Day was my favorite band, their first reply was "the guy with the eyeliner?" It really has become what he's known for, but I never really realized it because I don't know what it's like to be a casual fan. I'm not saying that means he has to wear eyeliner forever by any means, but it's just an interesting observation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Eyeliner definitely is what he's known for but it's also why they're often written off as a band for kids 'cause appatently it's the impression it makes on some people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you, I call it the "small, dark and handsome" look because he's not just short, he's small and perfect... And he'll never be too old for eyeliner if he likes it!! I'm fucking excited about this image, it's what I was hoping for, he looks so damn sexy. I think they shot a video, judging by the various IG posts that were up, from their stylist, hairdresser, Warner Bros. exec and a video production man.

Neither do I the point is somewhere else. It's generally seen that way because that aesthetic is meant to appeal to younger crowds in the first place and secondly because people relate it to bands that are known for having a very young fanbase. It's a very Tokio Hotel kind of thing. 2 hours ago, Whatsername_123 said: I think its important to point out that he wore eyeliner during the promotion of the trilogy- but he didn't seem to wear much (if at all during the tour).

Not adding anything clever to the discussion here but oh my god he looks so skinny in both of those early Trilogy era pictures you posted. It always surprises me when I see photos from that time because I barely noticed at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks a million times better, even younger, since he got sober. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why am I always so slow at posting things? I don't think anyone predicted that the meltdown would happen- but when you look back at the pictures before it happened, you can clearly see something wasn't right. The band's demeanour on stage in the weeks before it happened didn't seem right- they didn't seem happy on stage. Billie looked so much happier on stage when he toured in 2013.

In addition to the fact that Billie Joe looks sexy as hell with eyeliner, I think it has a certain old fashioned mystique, like the silent movie actors with heavily lined eyes.

whatsername Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I so agree on Billie wearing sleeveless or short sleeve shirts, I want to see his sexy arms with all the tatts. I haven't fangirled in years, this is so fun!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love his fluffy black hair it's beautiful, and he's wearing his glasses!!! And he's holding a classical piano score!!! And he's being a nerd!!!! Final Grade= A+ He's just gorgeous.

Chin for a Day Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I was bored and came across this drawing. I know its not a photo, but damn this drawing is beautiful. I love the way the artist captured his eyes. And you can never have too many pictures of your favorite rock star riding a llama I've decided that I find him significantly more attractive with his hair cut shorter on the sides, or pulled away from his face. If his hair is too long on the sides, and not angled away, it swallows his face and he looks like a big puff ball.

I'm at work( professional development) and this so nice to see on my break...he's gorgeous in the fluffy and less fluffy pictures but I agree you can more properly enjoy the beautiful shape of his face when his hair is shorter on the sides. I like his current haircut a lot. That drawing is amazing! The eyes are perfect. It captures just how magical his eyes look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The drawing you posted is very nice, beautiful work on the eyes, hands and details on the car and the texture of the fabric. I can't agree more about the puffy hair, it makes him look funny, like a clown. The first one you posted is funny but I really dislike the second fluffy hairstyle. It's just too much. Edit: reposting this to show how lovely this hairstyle is: shorter at the sides but still fluffy. The grey strand drives me insane, I can't even say why but it just looks so nice. I could say a lot more but you've heard it all a thousand times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therefore, I will discuss it. I'm no longer disappointed that Billie's blond hair has gone, and he looks great in the picture. Is that a tattoo on his left wrist, though?
