It turns out, Lionel Messi is just like us. When he experiences
heartbreak, he gets out of his funk by giving himself a fresh new look.
That’s what happened this summer when the 29-year-old superstar and the
Argentina national team lost the Copa America final to Chile for the
second time in a row. After taking a few weeks to wallow (he even
retired for a short stint), the Barcelona striker reemerged on the scene
stronger — and blonder — than ever. “One particularly tough day I dyed
my hair,” Messi explained (via Goal.com) to Mingo, a popular Argentine
comedian, on the Telefe network show “Polemica en el bar” over the
weekend. “I had to start again from scratch. I said to myself, ‘I have
to make a clean break and start over.’ ”.
Messi, who ended his weeks-long retirement in time to captain
Argentina’s 1-0 win over Uruguay in their World Cup qualifier last week,
first showed off his blond locks during Barcelona’s preseason training
camp in late July to mixed reviews.
Some people liked his new look.
