Michael Douglas, a two-time Oscar winner, is instantly recognizable by the striking red streaks in his otherwise black hair.
I happened to overhear him having a conversation with another customer in a Paris café where Catherine Zeta-Jones and I were enjoying a late lunch.
Her new hair color is a refreshing change, adding vibrancy to her neatly styled shoulder-length hair. Michael, dressed in a white shirt, gray v-neck sweater, cream pants, and gray shoes, completed his look with a pair of clear sunglasses.
Catherine complemented her tweed hat with a black leather purse, square sunglasses, stunning earrings, and a silk scarf.
Michael’s physical transformation has caught the attention of his supporters. He even updated his Instagram profile picture to showcase his new look, posing beside the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
In the photo, he hides his fiery locks under a hat.
Opinions among fans are mixed. Some admire Michael’s new hairstyle, while others feel it makes him look older.
Comments ranged from, “Gentlemen, sit up straight and fly right,” to observations about his hair’s unusual health for his age. Some remarked, “His hair was unusually healthy for his age, and it was naturally silver; red hair doesn’t make you seem younger,” and, “Get a grip!”
Other fans said, “Gray hair suits you well. I think it’s great, but I enjoy your original color more,” and simply, “No way!”
