Nineties pop band Hanson look unrecognisable as dashing grown-up stars

Hanson has shown off his stylish adult looks after being featured as one of the special guests on tour with Busted to celebrate their 20th anniversary.

American band Hanson, made up of three brothers Isaac, 42, Taylor, 40, and Zac, 37, is best known for their 1997 hit song MMMBop from their debut album Middle of Nowhere, which earned three Grammy nominations.

The brothers are headed on a 20-year celebration tour with Busted, the UK pop-rock group announced last week.

When Hanson rose to fame as a teenager, they were known for their long hair, baggy clothes, and energetic performances.

Today, long blonde locks are a thing of the past for some gang members and have become their look.

It will start in Plymouth on September 2 and finish in Manchester on September 24.

speaking to SunJames, 39, said: ‘It’s out of this world that we can do this and we couldn’t be more excited about it. It’s going to be evil.

Charlie and Matt admitted they’re glad they broke up in 2005 after the former quit to focus on his other band, Fightstar, because there was a lot of tension towards the end.

Asked if he expected a reunion back then, Charlie, 37, said: ‘No. That day I did not. I’m glad we broke up at that point because it allowed us to do this and get back together.”

The band reunited in 2015 and released the albums Night Driver, in 2016, and Half Way There, in 2019.

Matt, 39, continued: “People have asked me: ‘Do you regret breaking up?’ And I don’t. It was crap towards the end of Busted.
