Louis Tomlinson, 32, divides the Internet as he rocks salt-and-pepper hair at Glastonbury Festival
GLASTONBURY, ENGLAND: Louis Tomlinson has sparked debate after he debuted his gray hair. The former ‘One Direction’ member attended the iconic Glastonbury Festival and created quite a sensation by sneaking in a huge flat-screen TV at the campground to watch England take on Slovakia during the Euro Round of 16 fixture.
However, the star is in the news not just for his ardor for football but also for his graying locks. After the organizers allegedly refused to arrange for a television, he took matters into his own hands and brought a TV with him to watch the game.
What a LEGEND! 🏴 ⚽@Louis_Tomlinson brought a TV to #glastonbury to watch the England game.

Louis Tomlinson rocks gray hair at Glastonbury Festival
Tomlinson, 32, rose to fame over a decade ago through his musical endeavors as a member of the boy band One Direction. Tomlinson, along with his bandmates Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, and Niall Horan, rose to fame in 2010 when they were just 18.
After they disbanded in 2016, all the band members went their separate ways with Tomlinson forging his independent career path as well.

"Grey hair usually shows the hard times a person has been through… it should be admired and respected instead of being made fun of. Plus it really adds to his natural charm in my opinion. @Louis_Tomlinson is handsome and kind and talking about is hair is off topic ," said someone else.
