Watching Good Morning America, and Kenny Rogers is singing now. I realize he can’t be the Santa Clause-looking guy he was in the 80s (in fact, I winced when that picture came on earlier). But wow – he looks like he’s had a lot of work done, he has an odd fake-looking tan and a strange goatee and an alternative band hairdo. Sure, the sound is about the same, but wow. It doesn’t look like the same guy. What happened?

Maybe Cyndi is onto something….maybe he’s sick. God, I hope not. He’s one entertainer that I feel a real connection to. He has a gentleness about him in a very masculine way…I think he has a way about him that makes a woman want to take care of him. He looks a little lost, a little sad…lonely. Oh course, I might be influenced by the words of the music he sings… I didn’t realize that he’s been married five times until I read his bio yesterday.
I think he is the personification of the man every woman wishes she was married to, but I thought the same thing…pretty bad cosmetic surgery and he was handsome without it…Does anyone know what color his eyes are?
Kenny Rogers no longer looks like a man. Rather he looks irreversibly frightening and it is indeed sad that he felt compelled to alter what once was a wonderful human beings’ face…it matched his songs…now he’s merely a voice to listen to…one can’t look at him. We are distressed that he has done this to himself. Awful. And very tragic.
I think he still looks good. Jeepers, when you are all 69 years old, lets see what you look like.
I do not mean to seem negative however, I too saw Kenny Rogers last week on American Idol and I immediately thought that he had surgery. I always thought that he was handsome and this surgery really did not help him at all. What happened to his eyes? They seem smaller. My husband and I said that if we saw him walking down the street we would not be able to recognize him. Sometimes you just need to appreciate what God has given you :-). KC
I agree with Mel that he looks like Burt Reynolds. It was the first thing I thought when I saw him (well, after the horror and disbelief turned to freakish curiosity and fascination.) He really messed up his face. No going back now, huh! Why why why do people do this to themselves? Who tells them it looks good? To quote Wendy “Grow oldd gracefully chaps!” honestly!!
Not only is his face unrecognizable look at his body/shoulders he was so rugged and manly looking he looks like a pip squeak I am so shocked and saddened with his change. And not to mention how his hair thinned. It was so dang thick and full. Is it possible he has cancer of some sort?? He’s been gone for a long time too, I’m sure most TV stations have gotten alot of questions on his “new” look. I hope we find out soon!
All I can say is…yikes! I saw Kenny on American Idol and my jaw hit the floor. I just couldn’t believe what he’d done to himself. How sad. And yes, he does look like Burt Reynolds’ evil twin LOL
I tunned SET (I live in Venezuela) and just watched Idol with Kenny Rogers… I had to go on-line to check if “that” Kenny R. was the same Kenny R. my dad played over and over when I was a kid… it was the same guy… I just couldn’t believe my eyes…Why Mr. Rogers?
Kenny was such a hot babe back in the day and got better and better looking as he aged. OMG why did he have that done to himself?? He is unrecognizable. Nature was doing a darn good job, he should have left it alone. Where’e his eyes go?
