There are times when things happen in a man’s life he’s not proud of…and for Billy Ray Cyrus, this should be one of ‘em.

But no. Miley’s Papa is ACTUALLY proud of this mullet he rocked at the CMAs in Nashville this week – you can tell by the way it’s perfectly combed and sprayed with extra-hold Ellnet (he probably killed a few of those racoons he trapped with the fumes whilst setting that to ‘bouffant’).

It’s enough that middle-aged men wear tight denims (some bulges we just DON’T want to see) without adding to the pain with a serious hair faux pas.

It’s like George Michael circa 1987 came to party at the front and left a truck driver’s chest rug dancing solo at the back, or is that where Britney’s weave disappeared to?
