Image Credit: Gary Gershoff/Getty Images; Ron Galella, Ltd./WireGuess which photo of Billy Ray Cyrus is current! It’s tough, right? The former ballroom dancer has seemingly aged 20 years backwards. What’s his secret? Divorce? That’s him on the left, sprouting a mid-life crisis mullet at last night’s Country Music Awards. The teased mop on top, George Michael-esque triangle beard, and wacky background colors scream “early ’90s” … but I guess not quite as loudly as the denim shirt on the right.
Mid-life Mullet: Is it James Dean or Jason Priestley, PopWatchers?

Billy Ray Cyrus, wife divorcing








business in the front and a party in the back.
achy breaking big mistakey.
HAHAHHAAH nice one
Oh, Annie, your categories are priceless! And as to Billy Ray, I guess if you start with the mullet, you always go back. Maybe in 5 years it’ll be all the way down his back again. (Ewwwwww!)
please make it go away.
The eye sag and the jaw line give him away but hope he doesn’t get plastic survey to pull it all tighter. He’ll look bizarre. Its okay to age a bit hollywood.
I’m not as disturbed by the “almost mullet” as I am by the hair under his bottom lip. Why do men grow these?
Ugh I meant surgery, obviously. Thanks auto correct.
Ugh, this guy is trash.
Never ever again put the amazing James Dean and the annoying Billy Ray Cyrus in the same article.
He can be almost handsome when he cleans up. Get rid of the chin pubes or soul patch ..He must NEVER EVER wear the mullet Again. He will always look younger then he Soon to be Ex who is Older then him even though her age keeps getting *younger* in the tabloids
Why can’t he disappear?
Man you people are critical. This guy had a huge hit in the 90′s, had a successful show called DOC on the old PAX network, then his daughter is a hit on ABC. Now she has gotten a little wild lately, but how many of you were worse, but with you there were no cameras, tabloids, or people saying things to the press to earn a little dinero. The man’s marriage is over. I guess I just do not understand the venom towards this guy.
Actually, he looks more like singer Paul Young than he does James Dean or Jason Priestley.
He looks HOT to me, Love his voice too!
I think he’s growing back his hair longer to its former 1992 look of his “Some Gave All” album era. It’s how many fans remember him. That short, conservative haircut just wasn’t working and not making him sell more album and this updated modern mullet looks nice. That triangle-shaped hair under his lip makes him a little more George Michael-ish than his former just got-kicked-out-of-a-bar-after-a fight beard look.
He’s definitely aged well (mullet aside). He looks great with the longer hair.
