Filed under: Guess The Celebrity

Wow. We could barely recognize him!

Who is this fella????

CLICK HERE to find out!

It's Tom Petty, leaving his concert at the Troubadour in Los Angeles this past weekend. At least he's still working! Petty has recently reformed his very first band, Mudcrutch, a group that broke up more than 30 years ago without ever recording an album.

    PEREZ!!! Come on. Tom Petty was never the best looking but who cares? He is a rock genius and certainly not a "celebutard." Decent guy, great songwriter, deserves respect for his music, Christ, Perez, what the fuck????

    Perez, as much as I love you, you really do need to start showing some respect towards musicians other than Madonna and Maria Carry. Tom Petty is amazing; get off your high horse. If you keep on bashing rock legends, you're gonna lose a lot of fans. Think next time, Perez.

    I love his music…But kids…this is what happens when you smoke weed all your life.

    108

    Some of the comments are pretty funny here, but some are just plain harsh. Hope Tom doesn't read this.

    He looks pretty done in there I'll grant you, but for a guy who is coming up to 58 in October he's not doing bad.

    I still think he's a sexy guy.

    Still making records, still touring, has tons of loyal fans.

    He kind of does look like Jesus though there.

    I would love to know who took that photo of him though backstage. It would be interesting to find out!

  16. hotred says – reply to this


    116

    TOM PETTY is one of the world's most talented and prolific musicians. he is NOT a celebutard. PARIS HILTON is a pointless talentless celbutard.

  25. christina says – reply to this


    125

    HOW DARE YOU?! Tom Petty is a walking legend and SO ABOVE what you and any of these morons commenting that they feel bad about how he isn't aging very well think. This icon should feel sorry for you, idiots but he's too busy bein real, writing his own music and putting on unbelievable shows year after year! Tom Petty ROCKS!! See you at Darien Lake baby!!

  26. Cufflinks says – reply to this


    126

    Wow, that's Tom Petty? Golly, it seems like just yesterday he was on the cover of Teen Beat and modeling underwear for Calvin Klein. Hey, remember that really hot sex tape he made with Christine McVie from Fleetwood Mac? I can't believe how far the mighty have fallen.

    Yeah, I'm with everyone else. What is wrong with you Perez? It's Tom Petty! That's how he always looks!!!!

  27. Sara says – reply to this


    127

    Look, it is Tom Petty. Fantastic musician with a great band. I recognized him straight away. I don't see what is wrong with the way he looks. so he hasn't aged the most gracefully, and he doesn't look like everyone in Hollywood. So? He makes great music. I listen to a musician according to their musical talent and if it makes me feel good, not how the person looks.

  28. marisa says – reply to this


    128

    i totally knew that was petty. hahaha he looks outta control! he's still the shit tho!

    Great muscician, but check out his nastyface in one of his videos…

  38. zeph says – reply to this


    138

    Celebutard? No. He's a musician who paved the way for numerous other bands.

    See, that's the f'ing problem with the views of "fame" these days. It's not about the talent you have it's about having the best looks and marketability.

    I'd like to see you at 57 Perez performing on stage for an hour or however long he performed. Actually, i'd like to see you attempt something like that the age you are now. You'd probably collapse fifteen minutes in from exhaustion.

  39. M says – reply to this


    139

    How can you call Tom Petty a Celebutard??????? Love you Perez but seriously. Going too far when you are picking on a legend like Tom Petty.

  40. Kt says – reply to this


    140

    ok that was obviously tom petty… he doesnt look that different, and it you would have watched the super bowl you would have know that that is what he looks like now

  41. sarah says – reply to this


    141

    he's still amazing

  42. tev says – reply to this

    157

    Consider this: he had just finished a concert when that pix was taken and he was exhausted. This could've been a pix of him twenty years ago after a show - he looks the same and pretty, pretty fine, if I may say so.

  58. krisy says – reply to this

    159

    Re: mary – sigh. mary sweetie, if tom petty had mated with your mom (and she happened to be ovulating) you'd never be born because the baby would have completely different dna on the father's side. didn't you ever pay attention during sex ed?

    How very dare you insult Tom Petty like this! You will get old someday too you knucklehead. Besides it wasn't even hard to recognize him. What are you on about? I don't get it. I think you are out of your depth on this one.

  62. lbo says – reply to this


    162

    of course it's tom petty. he's the best musician of all time and always will be.

  65. Miss Molly says – reply to this


    165

    I f'g love him … he's a musical wizard, and, seriously, the only "celebrity" / famous person I'd pay money to share a meal with. If he's anything like his public persona, undoubtedly, I'd fall in love, too…. He's a genius.

  68. Hyde says – reply to this


    168

    Who are all you fucking idiots who say he should retire? He sings lower harmonies now, but he's as good as ever. I guess I expect too much from people who like teenybopper bubblegum music like Perez.

    Here's a shout out to my fellow rockers here. Love you guys!

    Perez is a Bitch and he's taking too long to die
    He's still mocking and he only leaves stains

    Hey, you know Tom Petty was never a handsome man- in the eyes of Hollywood- but I actually think he looks pretty good there! Not to mention that looks are NOT everything and this man has more talent than all of your superficial pop divas COMBINED.
    You pride yourself on having such great taste and knowledge of music, yet you're completely closeminded and ignorant of the true legends that helped shape the music industry as we know it!

    ATTN: IF PEREZ'S NEW RADIO SHOW HAS CALL IN GUESTS, I URGE EVERYONE WHO IS A TOM PETTY FAN TO BOMBARD PEREZ WITH BULLSHIT, PRANK CALLS TELLING HIM HE SCREWED UP BY CALLING T.P. A CELEBUTARD.

    IMO, PEREZ LOST A TON OF FANS BY SAYING THIS AND I THINK IT SHOWS HOW HIS SUCCESS HAS GONE TO HIS HEAD. YOU ARE A BLOGGER, DOUCHEBAG, YOUR 15 MINUTES OF FAME IS ALMOST OVER.

    LOVE YOUR 31 YR OLD FRIEND.

  97. lefty lady says – reply to this


    197

    DUH it's Tom Petty. I love your site perez, but I just lost some respect for you for putting Tom under the "celebutard" catagory. He is a legend and a rock and roll icon all over the world. He's been through hard shit in his life and he and his band are still together after decades of performing. And, he's a man of the people. Back in the 80's, record companies started jacking up the price of records and he fought his to keep it the same price and won. He wanted his fans to be able to afford his music. Sorry, sensetive subject. LOVE TOM PETTY!! Can't wait to go see his when he rocks Cincy!!

  98. TP rules says – reply to this
