We know it’s only been just over a year since they officially started dating, but we can’t think of Travis Barker without 43-year-old fiancée Kourtney Kardashian by his side. But one other thing we can’t imagine the Blink 182 drummer without is his tattoos – so imagine our shock when a throwback picture of the 46-year-old musician resurfaced online without his now signature body art! We almost had to do a double take!
The throwback picture that has been taking the internet by storm is of himself with his other Blink 182 bandmates, Tom DeLonge, 46, and Mark Hoppus, 50, which dates back to 1998. All three men look like babies in the picture, but it was Barker’s tattoo-free appearance which shocked the world the most! How things have changed!
Many fans took to Reddit to comment on the picture – and there were quite a few differing opinions. Some people thought that the drummer looked far better without the tattoos, while others were more focussed on how much his 18-year-old son Landon looks like him in his younger and tattoo-less days. And speaking of his children, a few other people wondered whether Kourtney and Travis' potential baby that they are currently trying for will look like him, because they thought he looked extremely handsome in the picture…
"Omg so hot he has a such a nice face," wrote one Reddit user. "His eyes are gorgeous wow," swooned one fan. "I always thought he was so fine when their show was on TV. I see Landon in him in this picture," commented another, while another self-confessed Travis stan wrote, "I have always been into Travis like yessss," followed by a heart eyes emoji. "He looked way better back then," someone else said, while another Reddit user pondered, "i wonder if his kid with kourt will look anything like him. this version of travis isn't bad at all.
