Whoa! Joey Lawrence is Back

Posted Aug 22nd 2006 12:08PM by TMZ Staff

Joey Lawrence, the former "Blossom" heartthrob, joins "Dancing With the Stars" this season and is showing off a completely different look along with his dance moves.

After laying low for a little while to get married and have a baby, Lawrence decided to shake it on the third season of the hit ABC show.

"This dancing has been getting me in really good shape," says Lawrence. "You can't keep the weight on just because you're always moving 3-4 hours a day like this sweating your brains out."

While fans may be surprised to see his moves, many will be even more surprised by his new appearance. Gone are the long locks that made him famous, and what remains is a shaved head and lots of muscles.

"My hair went along with my career ... I never had the guts to go completely clean ... I got rid of all the hair products, brushes, dryers and everything. It takes me five seconds to get ready, it's great. I'm not going to grow it back."

The new season premieres Tuesday, September 12 at 8PM.

16. Whoever wrote the article must not have been watching television or any recent movies because Joey Lawrence has been on television since "Blossom". He was recently in an IceBreakers chewing gum commercial. He's been in a few Disney movies as well. And I'm sure he was probably doing other things as well.

What was the writer talking about??
I guess, just because the media hasn't put his personal life in the tabloids and on entertainment news and just because he hasn't done anything idiotic these past 10 years, he hasn't-- according the them-- been around since "Blossom".

18. Why is it that when someone decides to shave their head some poeple wanna say something stupid like "oh.... he got radiation?" And that look belongs to the "brothas?" A look doesn't belong to any one person or group. If we wants to shave his his head more power to him. It's a sign of change and growth in my opinion. Go Joe! And good luck on Dancing With The Stars!

21. "After laying low for a little while to get married and have a baby, Lawrence decided to shake it on the third season of the hit ABC show."

What?! He's going to shake his baby on the third season of the show? Shame on him! Someone call Social Services or at least call this reporter's editor.

23. Joey has been on UPN's Half and Half this past season so why comment he hasn't been doing anything? His bald look is not new to the Black viewing audience so perhaps you should broaden you search criteria.
