Here’s a fun fact for your next Blue Collar Comedy Tour trivia night: Larry the Cable Guy hasn’t released a solo comedy special in over a full decade. And no, it’s not because cord-cutting put him out of a job — after all, he is neither a cable guy nor a Southerner in real life. According to an interview he gave to Fox News (so that your dad would see it, we assume), he apparently stepped back because he wanted to spend more time with his kids. (He has also been co-hosting a radio show.) But now he’s returned to the game of stand-up specials at a time that Fox describes as being “trying” for comedians, because what if cancel culture comes for “Git-R-Done”? After all, who is the “R” and what is being done!? Comedy Dynamics will release Remain Seated on April 7, and, despite Cable Guy’s white working-class persona, this isn’t being branded as a chance to “trigger the libs.” As he told Fox, he’s of the opinion that “most people just want to forget about it [politics] and just laugh.” He g...
The A&E star, 48, thought it was time to switch-up his iconic shaggy, shoulder-length style as hair salons and barber shops begin to reopen in Louisiana following the coronavirus restrictions. But to make the experience a little more fun, he wanted to see if he could trick his family into not recognizing him by walking by them after getting the cut.
"Everyone else is going back to the barber, I figured I should try it too. #17years," Will wrote on Instagram alongside a video.
At the barber shop, Will had his stylist cut off nearly all his long hair to leave his sides buzzed short and a longer coiff on top. But don't worry: the star still kept some of his signature flair by leaving his lengthy beard.
After he got his haircut, Will put his new look to the test to see if his wife Korie Roberts would recognize who he was. As she was purchasing a drink to-go from a restaurant, Willie walked inside, passed her and walked out without Korie giving him a second glance. By the time she headed back outside to her car, Willie walked up to her saying, "You forgot something..."
"What in the world?!" Korie replied as her jaw dropped when she realized it was her husband. "I feel like I kinda looked at you and thought you looked familiar," she added with a laugh.
Then Willie tried the same trick to his daughter Bella Roberts, 17. In the video where he's seen walking past her, she did a quick double-take before realizing it was actually her dad. Once she did, Bella's mouth dropped wide open and she fell down to the ground in utter shock.

"Dad, your hair!" she said.
Korie shared a sweet selfie with her husband and a few more videos of him surprising friends and family members with his new 'do after getting the dramatic haircut.
"SURPRISE!! @realwilliebosshog shocked us all with a major after-quarantine haircut, ha!
We haven’t seen his neck in 15 years đ I love this man! He’s cute and he always keeps life interestingđ," she wrote.
"Swipe through to see all of the reactions. He and @jdowen7 had a blast going all over town to surprise us, ha!" Korie continued. "He even bought a new shirt so we wouldn’t recognize his clothes. When he goes, he goes all in đ€."
A haircut makes the news? Really? Slow day in media-land.
