Isn't that from the Every Day video or similar?

I'm noticing a prevailing trend behind the motives of this thread.

Richie is such a rock star cliché.

That picture makes me sad.

He looks terrible. Like many others I have said, I much prefer natural, guitar in hand look.
Wonder if Jon is laughing or shaking his head in pity?

1. To me, he's had moments of hotness throughout his career, especially in the 'Stranger' era. Most of the 2000s were pretty bad imo, but in late 2011, after the last rehab stint, he started looking better to me (the tall, dark, broody thing always 'got' to me).

2. I'm in my mid-30s, he's 54. Now that I'm older, I find myself with celebrity crushes on older guys

3. I'm not a fan of the airbrushed perfection picture either: Too fake; he seems to be trying too hard. What I do find attractive about him is the way he sings and plays, with a lot of emotion. Or, when he's onstage with Bon Jovi and he bursts into a guitar solo and just commands the stage; he doesn't have to seduce an audience in the same with that Jon does, but he does it in his own way, just by standing there, being himself, doing his thing. So, that, combined with the (best) of his looks over the years, is what keeps me finding him attractive.

For what it's worth, I think he's /more/ attractive in this "Aftermath" promo photo, with his guitar, in a control booth, reasonably fit, than in the airbrushed promo NikkiRich shot. It seems like he's trying too hard in the NikkiRich pic, but in this photo, he's just doing what comes naturally. He's had a rough life in recent years, and I think the sort of 'weathered' look he has now shows it. But I don't find it unattractive; I find it honest, just like many of his songs.

He has definitely had moments of hotness. I was only addressing the comment "best looking man breathing" which to me implies she's talking about looks only the superficial sense. Not a huge deal either way.

Ahhh ok, then I can imagine him with his plastic face and open shirt hitting on a 26-year old in a nightclub.

Umm..you're all criticizing Richie for being superficial, yet at the same time you're criticizing his appearance. Pot meet kettle..
These recent photos are no different than the official photoshoots he does with the band. Most band photos look silly. All official photoshoots are fake and photoshopped anyway, so who cares...

Richie has no say in how the band photos look, but he has a say in this.

So what? He's used to band photos being like this, too.
And all photos get airbrushed, especially fashion photography. Ever opened up a fashion magazine? All the women look fake and plastic in them. That's just the way it is.
