Mel Gibson looked worlds away from his usual Hollywood heartthrob image as he stepped out to support his longtime friend Vince Vaughn at a special event on Monday. The 68-year-old actor , known for his iconic roles in films like Lethal Weapon and Braveheart, was almost unrecognizable at Vince's Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony, held in the heart of Los Angeles. Mel sported a laid-back look that saw him embracing his more natural side, with gray hair and a scruffy beard that added a rugged charm to his appearance.
Unlike the polished and tailored outfits worn by many of the ceremony's attendees, Mel opted for a casual ensemble that perfectly embodied his no-fuss attitude. He wore a simple white collared shirt, paired with long ombre blue shorts that fell just to his knees. To complete the relaxed look, the Mad Max star slipped into a pair of comfortable black lace-up sneakers, perfect for a day of celebrating his friend's milestone.
The father of nine was rarely seen without his black mirrored sunglasses, which not only shielded his eyes from the California sun but also added an air of mystery to his appearance. At times, the sunglasses made him nearly impossible to recognize—a far cry from the action hero fans have come to love over the decades. Standing proudly beside Vince, who is set to debut his highly anticipated new series Bad Monkey this week, Mel shared in the joy of the occasion.
Vince, 54, looked dapper in a dark suit paired with a crisp white shirt as he posed wit.
