Veteran actor Mickey Rourke , 70, stepped out with his longtime friend Kris Kristofferson , 86, rocking a new blonde hairdo. The duo enjoyed a private dinner at the Four Seasons in Beverley Hills, arresting everyone’s attention.
Still The Same Mickey

Age hasn’t dampened Rourke’s “bad boy” style as the actor rocked a classic black leather jacket with a matching V-neck t-shirt, gold buckle belt, and blue jeans. However, the shining star of his outfit was his new blonde hair falling to his shoulder in the center part.
Still Fashionable At ’70’
The actor paired his outfit with brown leather boots accented with a golden pointed toe matching the buckle on his belt.
Kristofferson Looked Good Too

Rourke’s partner for the night, Kristofferson, wore more muted blue jeans with a round-neck black t-shirt, casual zip-up bomber jacket, and printed leather boots. The 86-year-old had his well-groomed hair in its natural silver fox hue peppered with dark gray streaks.
Still As Vocal As Ever
Rourke has been under the radar since the mid-2010s but recently resurfaced with his controversial comments on Tom Cruise and Amber Heard. Fans weren’t pleased with his irrelevant take on Cruise, but the actor said his piece and moved on.
