His beard is too long though. I hope he doesn’t go for the lumber look.

I love to see Ben smiling, but I have to admit that this long beard is realy ugly.. it looks a bit scruffy..
I hope there will be fans who film the Q&A for all of us.. :)

Am I the only one who love his beard? :D
In my opinion he looks much better with a beard!!

Viennah said:

I do love his beard too, Cindy! But I like it more when it’s shorter and trimmed nicely.. The way it is now makes him look older and kind of face fro..

Longer hair + denser beard = new role, perhaps?

Carol said:

I love his beard too, although I prefer him without the beard. He looks much younger when he is clean-shaven.
Thanks Stephanie for these pics!!!

Lulu said:

Dianna said:

Wow I cannot believe my eyes Ben looks so much better in the clip than on the pictures !!
But still not a big fan of his beard though lol.
I liked the interview a lot . Ben trying to pronounce a town I can’t pronounce either was endearing.
Thanks , Stemphanie, You’re the best !!!!!!

@Dianna It’s “Fayetteville.” There are several cities (OK, smaller towns) in the South with that moniker. Kinda like “Springfield” on The Simpsons. Plenty of those around, too. Always made me wonder why/how so many cities in the US lack original names.

Dianna said:

Oh and i’ve also seen there are plenty of names from Europ like Venice and Napels and whatnot! I live in Europe btw.
And to F2write.
I hope it’ s for a new role. I also know it’s trendy now for men to have long hair and long ungroomed beard.
the long hair i applaud the beard on the other hand.. ….

I love his beard. I think it looks so good on him. I agree that he needs to keep it neat though. No Duck Dynasty beard for him please!!! Those are just plain nasty!

Dianna said:

Just googled Duck Dynasty since i don’t know that. And OMG plain nasty is even too kind to discribe that lolol

Carol said:

Wait, I think…Long hair + beard…Maybe he’s going to reprise his role as king Caspian in an upcoming part of Narnia movie :D

F2write said:

@Dianna Yep. We have a Naples, Florida. :) And, although our University of Miami is pretty famous, there is also Miami University in Ohio. Go figure. Because of all of the connecting intracoastal waterways where I live, my city is known as the “Venice of America.” I have to admit, I love boating.

I’ve also always loved longer hair. Not a fan of beards, but, Ben rocks it every which way with dashing style.

LaRose said:

Lol Dianna, I forget we are an international bunch. No Duck Dynasty in Europe???? Believe me, its a stupid show.

Drone said:

Short beard, long beard, short hair, long hair they don’t matter. He looks good in any way. But I much prefer him with long hair and bushy beard like King Caspian.

Carol said:

I totally agree with you, Drone. It doesn’t matter what he looks like at the moment, we love him as a man! :)
