Somehow, Josh Homme has transformed right before our eyes and fans are just noticing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The rocker has been busy this summer, performing on Queens of the Stone Age\u2019s stadium tour with the Foo Fighters in the US.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Fresh from their European legs, the two iconic rock bands have been on top form, but their catalogue of hits isn\u2019t the only thing fans have been lapping up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It seems Homme, 53, has become the latest \u2018internet boyfriend\u2019 following his incredible \u2013 and gradual \u2013 transformation that has been particularly noticeable since the tour started last week.\u00a0<\/p>\n
With a new hairdo, lean frame and that classic rugged rocker sex appeal, the musician has been at the centre of a lot of attention. Or, as social media would have it, a thirst trap.<\/p>\n
\u2018He\u2019s aged the best out of anyone i have ever seen ever ngl,\u2019 Jamilahmoniique commented on an Instagram video of Homme jamming on stage.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Others seemed to have the video playing on loop, with Caseydtraveler confessing: \u2018How many times did you watch this? Yes,\u2019 along with Zlazena6 who joked: \u2018Why is this video 4 hours long?\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018Homme is the perfect last name for him cuz he is a fine specimen of a MAN!\u2019 Elizmose declared, while Lacaroaparicio said the singer was ageing \u2018like a fine wine.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n
Oaklandartist claimed: \u2018He\u2019s on that Rick Springfield aging [sic] plan,\u2019 referring to the Zoot frontman who is also in the eternally youthful club.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It\u2019s hard to pinpoint the exact method behind Homme\u2019s transformation, but he recently spoke about overhauling his lifestyle following a series of health issues.<\/p>\n
In 2023, Homme revealed he had been diagnosed with cancer the previous year and had undergone surgery to remove it. He did not reveal specifically which cancer he had but confirmed the procedure was successful.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Speaking to Revolver magazine at the time, the musician said: \u2018I never say it can\u2019t get any worse. I never say that, and I wouldn\u2019t advise it. But I do say it can get better.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018Cancer is just the cherry on top of an interesting time period, you know? I\u2019m extremely thankful that I\u2019ll get through this, and I\u2019ll look back at this as something that\u2019s f****d up \u2014 but will have made me better. I\u2019m cool with that. There\u2019s a lot of stuff I want to do. And there\u2019s a lot of people I want to do that with.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n
In 2024, Queens of the Stone Age announced they were cancelling their tour so that Homme could receive \u2018essential medical care\u2019. He later revealed that he was bedbound for seven months during the ordeal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018I had a lot of time to think, you know? I was told I was gonna spend 18 months, two years there, so I was not excited,\u2019 he previously told Consequence of Sound.\u00a0<\/p>\n
