'Twilight' Heartthrob Is Unrecognizable After Major Style Switch-Up: 'Be Still My Millennial Heart'
'Twilight' Heartthrob Is Unrecognizable After Major Style Switch-Up: 'Be Still My Millennial Heart' originally appeared on Parade. As the countless devoted fans of the Twilight film series know, Cullen family member Jasper Hale — played by Jackson Rathbone — was known for his wavy, chin-length blonde hair (and startling amber eyes). But as a recent video proved, Rathbone has definitely moved on from his iconic character's fans can't get enough. In a clip shared to TikTok this week, Rathbone, 40, sat in a chair at a hair salon, where his brown locks had recently been cut into a more close-cropped 'do. As the hairdresser cleaned up the edges with his clippers, he seemed to nick Rathbone, saying, "Oh, geez, did I get you?" Rathbone's answer — delivered while looking directly into the camera — came courtesy of a soundbite featuring Jasper's iconic line from The Twilight Saga: Eclipse: "Those are my battle scars." Commenters made it clear they approved of his new style, with one gushing, "He's still so fiiiiiine." "Damn, he's finer than ever," a second person agreed, with another adding, "Aged like fine wine." "Be still my lil millennial heart omg," declared someone else. In a 2008 interview with Seventeen, Rathbone opened up about dying his naturally dark hair blonde for the Twilight movies, saying, "I really enjoyed it." "I was always a character actor when I was in theatre," he continued. "I kind of find that it helps the audience, especially with Jasper. I mean I'm not actually blonde so I had to bleach my hair blonde. I'm fairly pale. I'm more of an indoor sports kind of guy. I'm a musician so I spent most of my time awake at night and in the recording studio tucked away from the sun." "But I really do love to change appearances for a lot of the characters I play," Rathbone added.'Twilight' Heartthrob Is Unrecognizable After Major Style Switch-Up: 'Be Still My Millennial Heart' first appeared on Parade on Aug 15, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Aug 15, 2025, where it first appeared.

Giordano's creates Greek-style pizza named after John Stamos, per his Riot Fest demand
One Chicago pizza chain is answering the call following a demand made by John Stamos this week. On Thursday, the actor made a list of demands in order to perform with the Beach Boys as their drummer at this year's Riot Fest. One of those demands includes having a Greek-style pizza created and named in his honor by a local Chicago pizza restaurant. Well, Giordano's wasted no time in helping organizers by meeting that demand. They've created "The Stamos Supreme" pizza, created by Gio's own Chef Jesse, topped with spinach, artichoke, and feta cheese. In a post on social media, the chain also promised not to make eye contact with his hair, applaud him saying "Riot Fart," and, said while they can't give him a Gibson guitar filled with hummus, they could provide one filled with cheese. Stamos will perform at Riot Fest on Sept. 20 in Douglass Park.
