To look at Noel Fielding in a different light?

Watching New Year GBBO.
Noel Fielding has shorter hair and suddenly finding him quite attractive . He looks like a young Elvis Presley.
Never looked at Noel and found him physically attractive - how can a haircut make such a difference?

Nooooo! YABU Grin

I'm the opposite, loved him in the Mighty Boosh days and have gone completely off him now!!

Gth1234 · 01/01/2019 20:16

I saw him in the Brian Cox Great Big Bang panto sort of thing last year, doing an amusing seafaring skit about the Higgs Bosun.

I can understand how he got the gig on Bake Off.

TroubledMuchly · 01/01/2019 20:16

SAME.

Beamur · 01/01/2019 20:20

I think he's changed from being a skinny hipster to a slightly edgy Dad...but he's Vince Noir no more.

Theunreasonableone · 01/01/2019 20:24

I agree he looks gorgeous OP. Noel can do no wrong in my eyes though

QueenDoria · 01/01/2019 20:34

He seems like a lovely guy. Don’t ruin that for me...

DonDrapersOldFashioned · 01/01/2019 20:35

He looks like fat Elvis, not young Elvis.

glamorousgrandmother · 01/01/2019 20:35

Loved him in Mighty Boosh, still do.

NameChanger22 · 01/01/2019 20:38

He's fattened up a bit since joining Bake Off. He's also become a bit too mainstream. I'm sure the show has been great for his bank balance though. I find him less attractive now.

Hippopotas · 01/01/2019 20:39

I’ve always loved him. He’s so sexy.

mumonashoestring · 01/01/2019 20:40

I've always thought he was gorgeous Grin

Beamur · 01/01/2019 20:40

I think I'd end up chubbier if I was on bake off Grin

DonDrapersOldFashioned · 01/01/2019 20:43

I’m more of a Howard Moon woman.

SilverySurfer · 01/01/2019 20:43

Are you are still drunk from last night's festivities?

Laiste · 01/01/2019 20:43

I thought you were going to say he'd done something awful Grin

Betty777 · 01/01/2019 20:44

on Bake Off last year he looked a bit like a middle aged woman - i.e. he was sort of groomed and sanitised, but not enough for it to work? This is an improvement

MrsArabin · 01/01/2019 20:46

I’m more of a Howard Moon woman.

Yep, me too.

Magenta46 · 01/01/2019 20:48

He's a media puppet. I'm sure he's a nice guy and all. Media is just a fabrication of so called celebs. My DD and I had to walk away from a so called documentary, So scripted, made us both wince

Dahlietta · 01/01/2019 20:50

He looks like fat Elvis, not young Elvis.

Haha, yes, spot on. Grin

Badtasteflump · 01/01/2019 20:51

YABU - I love Noel Fielding (as in his humour/personality) but he is no Elvis Presley! Howard Moon, on the other hand, definitely has something about him, although I have no idea why Blush

WhipItGood · 01/01/2019 20:53

I think he’s lovely. It also Howard from Boosh.

And would it be too greedy to ask for Richard Ayoade too? Possibly my favourite.

chocatoo · 01/01/2019 20:54

Gosh I always thought he was gay but just googled and obv not!

NeutralJanet · 01/01/2019 20:56

Same as Russell Brand, I used to love him and Noel together when they were on Big Fat Quiz together, sadly Russell has gone a bit more SJW than comedian now, I was disappointed with his last stand up show, didn't find it funny at all.

Ispatienceavirtue · 01/01/2019 20:57

Nope - absolutely sober!
I've always liked his quirky humour but never looked at him " that way " but I'm literally watching GBBO and feeling gooey every time the camera is on him and I've never noticed his eyes before, such lovely blue eyes!!
Oh no! Is my mid-life crisis starting?

I've always been a Fielding lover, Vince Noir was my everything when I was going through some a lifetime ago. I adore Noel and Julian, I'd love to see new Boosh! Also, I'M OLD GREG! 😂
