His latest cropped-style is a big departure from his usual floppy look and the Heroes star admits some of his fans have been upset about his change of appearance.
“Some fans seem to hate it but I needed to grow up. I have had fans come up to me demanding to know what I have done with my hair.”
The 32-year-old actor – who previously dated his Heroes co-star Hayden Panettiere – also revealed he is now too old to play teenage roles so needed to change his looks in order to get offered more roles.
“I think there was a moment where my Heroes character Peter Petrelli needed to step out of the lost little boy kind of innocent persona. It also coincided at a point in my life where I can’t play these young teen roles anymore, but I still look young so I’m like what do I do? I’ll just pack on some weight and cut my hair. It helped.”

I prefer his hair short. December 15th, 2009 at 10:22 pm oh Milo.YOU ARE AMAZING December 16th, 2009 at 4:50 am While I do prefer the longer hair look, its not my hair. I also was unaware you were my age. You really do look much younger. As for Peter being innocent, I kinda like the honor code associated with a more innocent outlook. Either way, he’s a good character. Very memorable. December 16th, 2009 at 1:38 pm Does anyone know when that will affect Peter? I mean, I know he will now have short hair in the final two episodes (and I so loved his long hair, because- strange enough- it emphasized his eyes!), but are these the only ones? I´m sorry, I definetely have a hair fetish, and it means so much to me… (not the fetish- Milo´s hair.) December 16th, 2009 at 4:52 pm Love to see him on Heroes with his new hairdo! I guess we have to wait a few weeks before we find out December 19th, 2009 at 7:27 pm He didn’t cut them. Wendi, makeup artist on Heroes : “Adrian is still Rockin the Beard and no Milo didn’t cut his hair. And he looks WAY better with long hair. Actually, he doesn’t look like a teen anymore, but long hair fits him much better. December 21st, 2009 at 7:43 pm @Strongh: Whaaaaaaat??? I feel like kissing you!!!!! Thank you so much for that comment- that really made me happy to no end! I love Wendy, and I thank you for checking! And I so agree- his long hair is so my favourite look for him…*sighs* Leave a Reply |
