Milo Ventimiglia Cuts His Hair, Upsets Fans

Milo Ventimiglia has come under fire for cutting his hair.

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.”

How Did Peter Petrelli Regenerate?

At the risk of spoiling part of last night’s episode of Heroes, I felt like talking about it a bit, because this was a pivotal moment in the series that hints at many things to come. Namely, for the first time, Peter was able to use a power acquired from someone else, without being in the vicinity of the person.

So how did it happen? As we saw in the show last night, Mr. Invisible threw Peter off of the roof of The Artist’s building, thinking that it would force Peter to fly. Instead, something more spectacular happened ... Peter crashed into the roof of a taxi. Peter explained his miraculous survival as having thought of The Cheerleader just before he landed, but I think there was more to it.
