Isnt funny how people grow old differently. Noel's on the way up, Liam on the way down. So Noel's looking younger now... I think they more mean that Noel generally better looking than he used to be and has grown into his looks. Liam is worse looking than he used to be. Helped mainly by the fact that Liam was a tremendously hot 20 year old and Noel had been the king of homely when the band debuted. The curse of the truly beautiful strikes again. There was only one way to go for Liam.

So Noel's looking younger now... not younger ... Noel's gone from an average (at times below average) young man who didn't really care what he looked like to a gracefully, even beautifully, aging mature 45 year old, who takes care of himself (probably have Sara to thank for that). Liam WAS beautiful back in the nineties ... he hasn't taken the best care of himself and it's showing. particularly in such photos taken at his worst, plus camera flash is evil even to beautiful faces. it makes him look like a badly aging 40 year old (if not older). I think when he's in better shape (not late at night coming out of a club totally out of it) Liam can still look as handsome as when he was 25, just in a slightly different, naturally older, way. as for these pictures... I think just they're very unfortunate. IMHO it's an UGLY coat and scarf combination but Liam's always dressed more for himself and what he likes than what others are going to judge as 'ugly'. if he was being photographed in that coat in daylight, sober, and without that evil camera flash lol it wouldn't seem like such a big deal, or much worse than usual. mezmerised: BRILLIANT post. I agree with you 100%

There was only one way to go for Liam. I think Noel started to look alright around SOTSOG period when he got a bit of money and once he'd stopped using the drugs, then he started to look cool at times on the DBTT tour and DOYS tour where he looked best imo. Since his HFB album he's been looking older but then again he's a middle-aged man who's been smoking all his life so who cares really... Just look at Paul Weller, you can't hide ageing if you smoke all your life.

agreed theyknowwhatimean, they've both been pretty lucky so far as the smoking taking its toll. Bound to catch up with them at some point.

Not saying Liam looks like shit, but he's getting old and it shows. Noel seems to be ageless, he's always been old if you will. He's just a better old now than he was in the 90s.

Just look at Paul Weller, you can't hide ageing if you smoke all your life. That last part is dead on. Look at photos of John Lennon in 1980 at the age of 40. He looks drained. George Harrison as well seemingly turned into an old man over night in the mid to late 70s. Smoking has a hefty bill at the end for most people.

John Lennon looked really old around the time of his death.
i don't think Liam looks that old, generally. and when you keep in mind he is 40 and it's not 1995 then it's easier to accept the aging process, i guess.
God bless.

Definitely agree about Lennon, if you think Liam looks bad Lennon was A LOT worse when he was 40, his hair was thinning, he had bags under his eyes and he had lost a lot of weight. I always think it's a great shame that such a talented man ended up looking a wreck and (if rumours are true) living like one as well.
