As Matt Damon turns 54, it’s clear he’s only getting better with age. From his early dark hair to his striking gray locks, the “Interstellar” star’s transformation has been noticed by fans, and they love every part of it.
Matt Damon has been a Hollywood heartthrob for many years, but his recent transformation shows he’s just getting better as he gets older.
He became famous for his role in the 1997 film “Good Will Hunting,” which he co-wrote with his best friend Ben Affleck. This film won him an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, and he has remained a key figure in the entertainment world for over three decades.
His strong jaw, fit body, and dark hair were his signature looks for a long time, but now he’s embracing a new style that has fans talking.
In January 2024, Damon surprised everyone at the Golden Globes when he appeared with a full head of gray hair. For most of his career, Damon kept his brown hair, rarely changing his style.
But as time passed, Damon’s hair went from dark brown to blonde, and now to a silver shade, making him a “silver fox” that many fans adore.
While some were surprised by his new look, many praised it. On Instagram, fans flooded the comments with compliments. “Still good looking tho [sic],” said one person, and another added, “He still looks very handsome.”
His gray hair even caused a buzz on Twitter, with one user saying, “Oh Matt Damon looks good with the gray hair.” On Daily Mail, a discussion thread praised his timeless appeal.
During the event, Matt was seated at the same table as his good friend Ben Affleck and his ex-wife Jennifer Lopez. Damon was there with his wife, Luciana Barroso. “Matt has aged but still looks good and is so talented,” a fan commented. “Ben must have been happy they shared the table with their supportive wives!”
This isn’t the first time Matt’s appearance has been a topic of conversation. In 2023, some fans criticized him for gaining a little weight.
“Matt Damon put on some weight,” said a user in February 2023, while others questioned his change in physique. But Damon stayed true to himself and kept in shape.
When he was spotted shirtless on the beach in Miami in September 2023, Damon showed off his fit body, with six-pack abs. Seeing him confidently walking along the beach with his wife, Barroso, cleared up any concerns about his fitness.
Through all of this, Damon has stayed grounded. He has been happily married to Barroso since 2005, and they share a blended family. They are often seen together at high-profile events, like the premiere of “Air” in Los Angeles in March 2023, where Damon reunited with Affleck.
The two childhood friends showed their lifelong bond while supporting each other’s careers. Fans noticed how Damon’s appearance had changed over the years, but his love for his family has remained the same.
Now at 54, Matt Damon continues to evolve, from his classic brown hair to his blonde look in the “Bourne” series, and now to his distinguished gray hair.
As Matt Damon grows older, his transformation adds to his legacy as one of Hollywood’s most beloved stars. His silver hair is just one more part of his ever-changing style.
From his youthful dark hair in “Good Will Hunting” to his more rugged blonde look in “The Bourne” films, and now his striking gray hair, one thing is clear — Damon will always be a Hollywood heartthrob.
Dad gets massively shamed for putting leashes on his 5-year-old quintuplets
Raising children these days can be a task on its own. Young parents don’t just have to hear opinions from family members but also have to put up with random strangers on the internet commenting on their parenting methods.
Jordan Driskell is a young father of five quintuplets. His quintuplets happen to be 5 years old. As you can imagine, looking after 5 children who are the same age can be quite taxing. Especially at 5-years-old when a child is curious and likes to explore.
31-year-old dad, Jordan Driskell decided to find a creative solution to his problem. He bought leashes meant for children to control his rambunctuous little kids when they are in public together.
In the past, Driskell had a 6-seat stroller that they used for their big family. However, that grew tiresome very quickly because the kids would be bothered when inside it. The stroller was also incredibly inconvenient to take anywhere.
This helps the little kids get to wander and explore their surroundings when the family goes out without their dad losing sight or control of them and hence keep them safe!
Driskell posted a video of the family’s outing to the acquarium that caused a lot of negative feedback directed towards the parents. The video of the kids on leashes went viral with over 3 million views. Hundreds of people commented about how the children were not animals and hence should not have been leashed.
Others commented, “If you can’t manage the pressure, don’t have so many kids.”
Other offered disdain masked as advice, “Can’t you just properly train your children?” Discuss to them why fleeing is risky.”
Dr. Deborah Gilboa, an expert in parenting and adolescent development had a different opinion. She does not think a leash will make your child think they are an animal. And if the alternative to a leash is to stay at home, then of course, the leash is a much better option!
Dr. Gilboa said a leash is a great tool for younger children or neuro-diverse children to be controlled in a public environment. However, she said that if a neurotypical child is not off a leash by the age of eight and nine, and hence has not developed their listening skills, that might be troublesome.
By then, parents should be able to effectively communicate with children verbally instead of relying on tools like leashes.
Parents should have the freedom to parent the way they want without facing unneccesary judgement from society.
