They\u2019re like, &#8216;Oh my god, Ali!&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;And usually what\u2019s so sweet, they look at me and they want me to be their big brother, their father figure, their counsellor or something&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I was literally driving down the 405 in LA and a group of young girls kept looking at me and my husband was like, &#8216;Those girls are looking at you. Is something wrong?&#8217; &#8216;I don\u2019t know,&#8217; but they kept looking and then eventually, I waved, and then I literally heard [screams]. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;So I\u2019m a 54-year-old heartthrob as well.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;It\u2019s happened. I never knew it would happen, but it\u2019s happened at the ripe old age of 54. Listen, as long as it happened at some point in my life, right?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe &#8216;Rustin&#8217; star previously admitted he used to be &#8220;insecure about everything&#8221; but has grown to embrace the things he disliked about himself and thinks that has made him &#8220;more beautiful&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\nHe told America&#8217;s Vanity Fair magazine: &#8220;I was insecure about everything\u2014I don\u2019t think even about being queer. I was insecure about being tall, my nose, my body\u2014I was very skinny. At some point you make agreements and you\u2019re like, Well, this is mine. I guess if I don\u2019t love it, nobody else will. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;And so I started to take steps to love it and understand what I\u2019m working with. And I think that that\u2019s where you find all that inner light and inner beauty. And then I think you become, I guess, more beautiful.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/colman-domingo-thrilled-heartthrob-50s-1404278.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>8 August 2024 Colman Domingo is thrilled &#8216;Euphoria&#8217; has made him a heartthrob in his 50s.
