Tom Brady grew out his hair earlier this year, and he’s kept his longer locks. The Justin Bieber/Dorothy Hamill-style isn’t very popular with sports fans, though, and so Tom fielded several questions about his hair during a radio interview yesterday. Brady’s reply? “Ah, you’ll have to speak to my wife about that.” Oooh, so Gisele Bundchen has him whipped! Interesting. Gisele gets the final say about his hair.
“Is there anything I can do to make you cut your hair,” New England radio host Greg Hill asked Tom Brady during a phone call on Tuesday.
“Ah, you’ll have to speak to my wife about that,” Brady replied.
Brady’s hair has received almost as much attention as his play on the field this year. The ladies don’t like it (Twitter searches and a quick poll of all the women in my life reveal this), men are mocking it (Brady-worshipper Bill Simmons of ESPN wrote “all Patriots fans made a pact to pretend that Brady’s 2010 hairdo isn’t happening. We’re going to ignore it completely, even if his hair catches fire during a game and a referee puts it out with a challenge flag”) and even teammates are giggling about it.
“That’s a grown man over there, he can do what he wants,” receiver Brandon Tate(notes) told the Boston Herald. “That’s on him.”
Even Justin Bieber himself has weighed in on Brady’s flowing mane. “Nice haircut, Brady,” the tween singing sensation told the Herald in an email. “Dude’s got golden locks. Haha!”

How is this not bad? Tom is either A) Throwing his wife under the bus to excuse an unpopular styling choice and/or B) telling the world that he’s p-ssywhipped. Personally, though, I tend to think Tom probably doesn’t give a sh-t about his hair and Gisele probably does, so he just does what she says. Or he does care, and thinks the longer hair makes him look stylish. Eh. Here’s what I don’t understand – if you’re a dude and you’re going to wear your hair long, why not style it slicked back? I think the problem with Brady’s hair isn’t so much that it’s long, it’s that he’s giving sports fans massive bangs trauma. He just looks idiotic, and like he’s clinging to some Justin Bieber-ideal of youth with the bangs. Slick it back!
i hate his butt-chin. he looks like a geico caveman with his hair that way.
Guess she wants to make sure nobody else wants him!
I personally love the hair. Gisele is a fashion girl and probably thinks he looks ‘cute’ with the long hair. The problem is that the hair is a teenybopper haircut and people feel it doesn’t suit him since he’s a football player. Could it be an attempt from Gisele to make Tom look youthful?
He’s good looking, but does he seem boring to you? He seems boring to me.
I think this hair cut is cute on boys college age and younger. At his age I think it looks silly. He’s such a handsome guy: Gisele, make him get it cut!
WTF the world already has a Yoko Ono. The way he played on Sunday he needs to cut that ish b/c it’s bad luck.
There is a lot of speculation floating around New England about him not cutting his hair all year. I hope he doesn’t end up with a gross ponytail. I hate when football players grow their hair long. Why do you want to give the opposing team something to grab onto???
Anton Chigurh.
what a wuss.
@ Marjalane:

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! 🙁
The bangs are just so, so terrible on him. Maybe he could’ve pulled that cut off back in his pee-wee league, but ugh. Get a big boy hair cut, honey.
He’d look great with a buzz cut.
I just had to add to this that he does indeed look like a huge, boring dork that needs written instructions in bed. He reminds me of the high school jock that you have a crush on for all 4 years and then when you finally get a date, you think “Really? Are you serious? Are you really that stupid?”
God, he looks like he doesn’t have a brain.
He’s too big to have that type of haircut, and it does not suit him at all.
That hairstyle works if you are either young, or lanky, or both.
The style looks ridiculous when worn by a man that size.
Cut it.
it looks like a hairpiece lol
He’s giving us “BANGS TRAUMA”!!! That’s HILARIOUS!!! OMG, mega ROFL!!! That’s a good one – I LOVE IT!(tries to stand up and get tissues to wipe the tears streaming down face from so much laughter . . . oops – might’ve peed my pants too)
She must want to send him into a MLC early!! Next he’ll be driving a small sports car.
Slicked back its undeniably sexy but OMG he looks terrible with it down like that. Like he is channeling a grade school boy. Blah. I vote he cut it, lol.
what does this say about gisele…hmm. that even she has a crush on the biebs?
um, he crashed his small sports car last week…
YES! Excellent Kaiser this is exactly what i was talking about in my Gisele post yesterday. So fugly!
Would he and Brett Favre drop off the face of football entirely? They drive me nuts.
@ 21-Actually, he didn’t “crash his sports car”. A kid who has a lengthy driving record (including a DUI) ran a red light and hit TB.
My brother and I have nicknames for all the QBs. Brady’s are “Princess” and now, “Rapunzel.” We thought it was hilarious that he had cry-abetes after the game. I guess I should add that, as Colts fans, we look for any opportunity to make fun of the Patriots, but Brady is making it too easy.
Considering that everybody says he has the hairstyle of 16 year old boy, I doubt he’s trying to be stylish. If Gisele is saying don’t cut it, what does it say about her? He looks ridiculous.
I am a lifelong Pat’s fan and everyone who knows me knows of my love for Brady. He is killing my love with that stupid haircut.
He is not my type of guy, but I think it looks good on him and in no way looks like Justin Beiber’s haircut. That style I despise and am grateful I don’t have any sons so I won’t have to put up with that look.
Also, that hairstyle, at least in those photos makes him look like a sports hero from the 1970’s a la Bruce Jenner.
@ Mandy-As a Pats fan, Manning gives us more than enough ammo with his douchetastic commercials 🙂
He outdid himself with the Justin Timberlake number. In fact, I’m surprised my TV didn’t explode from all that douchery….
@Marjalane: Yes! Absolutely agree with your assessment.
I’m not entirely sure why he should care what anybody (OTHER than his supermodel wife) thinks about his hair. I despise the two of them, but I’m fairly sure most men who bag a supermodel would be happy to wear their hair any damn way she told them to.
Tom is not a slouch and not stupid. He is a gentleman and treasured by Boston fans. I imagine none of you have watched him during a press conference – he is well spoken, thoughtful and intelligent. Boston loves him. As for why he isn’t cutting his hair, I doubt any of it has to do with Gisele. And, no matter his hair style, he is quite handsome. Stop the hate, people…
I do not get the fascination with him or Gisele. He looks like a lady, and she looks like a dude, to me. Also, he’s a DOUCHE.
They make a gorgeous couple! I think he’s handsome no matter what hairstyle he has.
He looks ri-fucking-diculous.
he is not cute. no.
He is so not cute, especially with the hair. I agree he looks totally boring and dumber than a box of rocks.
He looks like a neandrathal. The bangs cover his ginormous forehead so it’s not so terrible but I just find him so ugly.
I hope their poor child doesn’t look like either of them. Thank God they had a boy, I pray they don’t pass on their genes to a girl.
Their babies will be beauts!!
@ Bella-Please show your face more on the TB posts. I can’t hold down the fort all alone! 🙂
If you live in the New England area, and you have seen his press conferences, if you know his history (no, not the stupid made-up relationship drama) then you wouldn’t say he was either dumb or a douche. He spends more time than any other local athlete working with charities, he took a pay CUT (WHAT athlete does this?) to stay with the Pats, and he comes across as thoughtful, kind, and totally unpretentious in the post-game press.
I can’t help it but it just bothers me that people hate him based on some made-up nonsense about his personal life.
I know I shouldn’t care but I just feel like all the hate is so unwarranted…Save it for Gibson and Sheen! 🙂
He reminds of me of Dexter in the last picture:/
Kitten:
A pay cut??? He is the highest paid NFL player in history.

And as far as charities…that car he crashed was donated to him through Best Buddies. If he was truly so charitable, I think he should have declined it, given his 78.5 million contract and all.

I agree that he comes off well at press conferences. But I still think he is a toolbag.
And I am a lifelong Massachusetts girl.
The hair looks stupid. I used to think he was good looking, but I think he’s growing that out along with his hair. He looks just kind of yucky now.
I used to like Brady OK, but he lost me toward the end of the Super Bowl game against the Giants.
His look of utter disbelief as he stood there, realizing that he was going to lose the game, was so telling. he (and the rest of that team) were so arrogant and thought there was NO WAY they’d lose the game. they believed their own hype. I don’t really care about his personal relationships, but his actions as an NFL player, his poor sportsmanship, is what did it for me.
And don’t even get me started on Bellicheat running off the field before the clock ran out. SORE LOSER.
oh, and Marlajane at #13?…I TOTALLY went to high school with that guy!
Mandy…”cry-abetes”…that’s damn funny!
Good gawd! I think he looks like “LURCH” from the Adams Family with long hair…ewww…
Marjalane: My thought exactly
He’s fug and looks as dumb as a box of rocks. His hair style only makes him look worse, if that was at all possible.
Even the Bieb thinks his hair is funny. Now you KNOW it’s bad!
Back when Brady hosted SNL, he was obviously balding. This is the worst toupee I’ve ever seen.
@msmlnp-yes, obviously he makes tens of millions NOW. The Pats is the only team he’s ever known and he completely changed the team. If you followed the pats you would know that in 2005 he took an absurdly low signing bonus in comparison to Manning’s $34M as well as a ridiculously low salary to stay in NE (in comparison to what other teams were willing to pay for him).
Also, yes the car was GIVEN to him. Really you would insult them by saying ” no I don’t want it?” Blame Audi for not giving it to charity if you want but don’t blame Brady for taking it.
Interesting how a bad haircut can totally detract from handsome, chiseled features, and if anyone knows how bad hair can ruin a person’s looks, it’s a model. What might her motive be? When he looks good we look at him as much as her?
This is not a good look for him AT ALL….
This was Brady’s comment (from GQ a year ago) ” “I think any man who lets a woman pick what he should wear . . . I mean, you gotta draw the line somewhere as a man. I see these guys, ‘My wife told me to wear this!’ And I just shake my head.’’
So..what the heck was all about… now his manish face wife told him to have long hair? Don’t you want to draw the line,Tommy?
By the way, I think Bridget Moynahan must now feel so sorry that she went out with him for 3 years. She must be so delighted that she is no longer with this absurd looking immature man.
