I hate it when people say," He was cute but didn't age well". Compare your photos from your teen years to when your 60. I'm sure you don't look the same. I know I don't!! I think he is a very handsome MAN now.
Boy, I'll say. If I had the chance to see pics of myself at 55 when I was 16, I wouldn't have made it to 17. I would have died from the fright. 😜 He's a beautiful soul. His beauty shines through, regardless of what changes time created.
He has been through so much in his life. He seems like a very sweet, kind soul. He is as beautiful on the inside as he is on the outside. I hope he continues to do well.
Leif is extremely likeable. This is true to this day. As you know, drugs has had such a negative effect on his success and well-being. This really pains me. I wish him happiness.
Why do trolls gotta ruin genuine comments? Everyone ages and so will all you damn miserable trolls! You probably weren't even beautiful when you were young! At least he was!
I have been watching a few of his interviews from back then. He seems to be a very genuine, intelligent, well spoken person. I like him as a person. I hope all the fame did not mess him up too much.
HaHa "mess him up"? Well, just a weeee bit. Right after this he paralyzed his friend while coked out of his gourd... and on the way to score another 8 ball.
Back in 1979 when I was teenager in the Philippines, Leif went to Manila to promote his album. Me and my sisters were watching him on tv and were screaming like crazy, the police on patrol heard us and came to the house to check if something is wrong.
Wow! His features are beautiful. His eyes and smile are amazing. I know he probably got sick of hearing it, maybe even became annoying, everyone fascinated with his looks, but he is probably one of the most attractive I've seen. Sorry, cant help but notice this, and i was just a little kid when he was around, just finding him out.
My niece's younger son looks a lot like Leif, except a head taller, and shorter hair (but still tousled blonde). It's his eyes and nose that are so much like Leif.
He was gorgeous!!!!!!! I was so in love with him when I was younger, I would buy the Tiger Beat magazines just to the centerfold pictures and posters of him and hang them on my wall. Very sad how his life turned out with all the drug use and drinking.
@Arah Alday I disagree with you about “bedroom eyes.” His eyes and face indicate he is focused on his musical charts and the instrumentation. He looks like he is planning to make eye contact with all those musicians.
I just finished his book and it was amazing...really. paint was right nobody was really looking out for him he was around adult all the time. His mom was a bit naive
Cory Haim was a similar story, so so so talented, good looking and both ended up with addiction problems. Adults didn't look at them as kids needing supervision and guidance.
I had the biggest crush on Leif when I was a teen and he was huge in Australia. Sadly, his life spiralled downward but that shouldn't take away from what he achieved and his talent.
He was such a good looking kid. He could whip throngs of teenage girls into a frenzy like no one else. He hasn't aged well though...he's almost unrecognizable now.
Could someone please upload the video of Leif Garrett on the Mike Douglas talkshow and Dinah Shore talkshow in 1978 and on the Odd Couple TV Show around 1972 thanks 🎤 🎵
He was good looking here! He was a cute little boy. He hasn't aged well at all. I'm thinking it's from all of the drugs he did. But good for him staying clean with drugs.
The first record I ever purchased was Leif's version of Run around Sue. I was 12 & bought it at an Eckerd's drug store. I was so in love with that cutie!!!
Yes the 70's were very different time. A much better time in the world and i'm not saying that because i grew up in the 70's. Our generation was after the turbulent 60's and the Vietnam War. And we were fortunate in that the biggest anxiety was the Cold War. We also didnt't have as many drug problems or racial and social issues during this period. However i will be the first to admit that my generation (1961-1963 tail end of baby boomer generation) ended up being one of the most selfish and self centered generations. Good people but for some reason they ended up becoming very conservative and self centered in many ways. I have always been a moderate to progressive but most of my friends ended up being conservative to the extreme.
And to think nearly a Year Later he would be in a DUI accident that left his best friend Paralyzed from the waist down and although his Friend forgave him, he couldn't forgive himself.
Yes, he shouldn't have gone into the Car knowing Lief was drunk. It kind of reminds me of School's Out, The Degrassi Movie where Lucy Fernandes goes into a Car with Derek "Wheels" Wheeler knowing he was Drunk and almost ended up Blind and Paralyzed for life. Looking back I sometimes wished he had talked to Aaron Carter who almost became another Teen Idol Tragedy but thanks to help and counselling he's much healthier. When a person is on Drugs, they always look bad. Did you know that when he was addicted to Drugs, Smokey Robinson weighed 180 when he was supposed to be 200 Pounds.
@@donarthiazi2443 Really? No one needs to get eyes checked. He was exceptionally good looking in his younger days. His eyes alone are beautiful. HIs smile is beyond gorgeous. He's a solid 11 out of 10. Don't be jelly. You might need yours checked tho.

@@JamesRichards-mj9kwNo, he isn't. He has dated women exclusively his whole life. There is one woman he would have started a family with, but she died.

The LOVE OF MY LIFE, back in the 70's! He looks just gorgeous ,here. Could eat him with a spoon !!
HE WAS MY MAN...WHAT A DOLL HE WAS
Such a wonderful man!❤
He's still a handsome guy! I'm glad to see he made through all of the crazies of being famous without dying, like so many did.
Yep. A lot of guys liked him.
perfect face enchanting smile a nice long curly hair and a bedroom eyes💕

Best looking teenager in the universe
So right
Wow /I think I was 8 back then ...I wish I could go back in time ...
I still have my Teen Beat Magazine of Leif from my teens in the 70's and I do remember when he was on American Bandstand.
Cool !
I Cant Beleive How Much Leif Has Changed Over The Years /Its Hard To Beleive He Is 58 Years Old Now /Wow ❣
We all change over the years 😂 what don't you believe?
His appearance looks too old compare to his age. Though, I like the songs of this guy.
He was gorgeous classy sweet and polite. We all loved him so much! 🥰
He was sooo handsome, he has that classic boyish look.. so cute
I just finished his book and it was amazing...really.
paint was right nobody was really looking out for him he was around adult all the time.
His mom was a bit naive
Just finished his book yesterday it was sooo good. It’s so sad how no one had his best interest.
Cory Haim was a similar story, so so so talented, good looking and both ended up with addiction problems. Adults didn't look at them as kids needing supervision and guidance.
"A bit"?? Try 'very'.
Leif Garrett He's Really Got Such WonderFul Blond Hair
He's got wonderful everything.
Unfortunately, like Peter Frampton, he lost that dreamy hair.
Damn. He was so handsome.
Cutest guy ever
He was my very first crush... he was so beautiful ❤
Such a handsome young man. Still handsome in his 60s.
He was really a handsome kid, I didnt see that back in the day. Hahaha…very cute!
I Loved that show. They have a small version of it in Branson. 💖😊
Nice and handsome with no tattoos
I had the biggest crush on Leif when I was a teen and he was huge in Australia.

He was such a good looking kid. He could whip throngs of teenage girls into a frenzy like no one else. He hasn't aged well though...he's almost unrecognizable now.
Sadly heavy drug and alcohol abuse took its toll. Very sad he got addicted.
The saddest part is he lost all of that beautiful hair...
Even if it took a toll on his body and looks, at least he's clean, healthy and presumably happy.
I’m thinking he whipped tons of guts into a frenzie to❤ so hot omg
He was extremely beautiful and comes across as genuinely nice guy
I turned 15 in 1979. Yep, he was hot! Had his posters on my wall!
When I was 14, I used to pray to God every night to make Leif my future husband. Crazy.
Homem mais lindo do mundo . Leif Garret
We were all in love with him at that time...
Oh yeah. My preteen heart would literally hurt because I wanted to meet and marry him, but he didn't know I existed. Lol.
My ultimate crush when i was in high school
He could have done so much more.
Leif will ALWAYS be beautiful!. Inside & out.....!
I was 10 years old and a huge fan at the time.
I was nine. And got to see him in concert. Loved him. 😊
My gf and I met him he was so sweet and nice ❤

Lots of us guys, too.

Really liked the song When I think of you❤
They must have canceled that Danny Lopez movie. Can't find anything on it and it is not listed in Leif's IMDB Filmography.
oh that's too bad. I was going to look it up too.
Charming guy ❤️
I definitely agree he was a hottie the singer's of today can't hold a candle to Leif
very clear interviewer's english.

Originally Roland was going to drive. He was also drunk and had been taking drugs, so it could have been Leif who was left paralysed.
Oh I didn't know that. I got the impression it was Lief. Either way they paid such a high price.
Winkler was awarded less damages from the insurance company because he was judged to be at fault as well.
Wow....so cute.
