Phil has always had this physique, he moves from being this physique to being veryyy skinny. There's no balance. I say that Phil has a poor diet, I never see an indication of him eating good food (while Dan has been seen eating salads). As entertainers, they usually entertain the fun aspects of their life and only show themselves eating sweets, junk food and drinking ribena, as eating healthy food isn't exactly relatable. Or, Phil could be the type to not eat a lot asides from sugary foods, which I guess from his skinny arms and legs.

Also, Phil is aging, obviously. He's thirty years old and has looked the same for ten years, it's time things catch up. People age, that's an eventuality, and it shouldn't be demonized, not that I think you are, just before I get responding comments. It's time for change, and it's not a bad thing.

The only thing I hope Phil changes about himself, now that he's older is his style. The hair is dated, and he's afraid of change. I for one hope he keeps his young-hearted, fresh mind and attitude. [I don't watch him for being a dry, cynical adult. I watch him for himself.]

And I like his butterfly shirt. It's fucking fabulous.

Except, he always had that body shape even when younger, it's not some magical transformation once he turned a certain age.
I think that shirt is a really thin material and isn't doing him any favors, though, i mean the material should be thick enough so your nips don't poke through.

He's always been this shape, but maybe just because I am a demon nutrionist / fitness obsessed person this time around it really does seem more pronounced to me and much more in line in certain little things with what I constantly see in dudes of certain age and lifestyle

Again, for me it's most an interesting observation on Phil not being ageless, I am not speaking whale to him here (who gets the reference)

I'd say it has a lot more to do with them being constantly active and on a stressful travel schedule for most of late 2015/all of 2016, and being at their thinnest ever during that phase. The post-TATINOF weight gain seems like a really healthy sign to me, it would have been incredibly worrying if they made it back home and months later that hadn't changed. Also, we know in 2017 so far they've made an effort to be healthier and Phil has made an effort to be more active.

And I also just really dislike the term skinnyfat. No matter how you try to explain it, it just sounds like it's meant to shame and embarrass someone based on weight.

That was my first thought as well, glad I'm not the only one who thought it looked like a Star Trek shirt.

About Phil's diet, I remember reading in that Dan said that it is usually Phil's idea to go on some sort of diet or start eating healthy. Not that he always succeeds, but he does seem to think about these things.

Also I don't see Phil looking any different; he looks good to me.

I would love to touch his curls. Nice of him to let her. Love the pose too. Dan seems to be enjoying.


Cute story about Phil.

The rare male m&g photo. Bet Dan was happy (if you believe he values his male audience over the females, which I really don't.)

Quick comment on deppy's clothes today.
Dan's looks like something that Troye would wear. It is so soft and nice on him
Phil really suits khaki, in my opinion, because it is dark as opposed to his usual bright colour clothes. But I hate the butterflies. They are ugly.

Secondly, wombat!!!!
Loving your pictures with deppy

One of them has their twitter location as "sydney airport" so - maybe?

I am normally pretty chill about Dan and Phil's level of fame but holy shit it feels surreal to know some people literally faint in their presence. and they have a medical staff on hand and just take it completely in stride lol

I'm surprised the Sherlocks haven't tracked down the source(s) of Dan's shirts yet. I like the color block sweater / shirt better than the plaid Nehru / sleep shirt he was wearing a few days ago (I liked the pattern, just not the length.)

I think Phil needs to move to a more quiffy hairstyle; shaving his sides and back of his head doesn't work as well on him as it does on Dan.

Agree, very surreal. Although I should've anticipated it, the first time my daughter met Dan & Phil, she was so overwhelmed that she completely broke down sobbing and crying and unable to catch her breath. Dan & Phil were very sweet & understanding, but she was just mortified that at her only opportunity to meet them, she totally lost control. Of course, she was quite young (13). We were lucky enough to manage a subsequent VIP m&g where she managed (just barely) to hold it together and enjoy the experience. I always thought those stories people told of fans fainting in front of their idols were B.S. ...but perhaps not.

I hope we get a full recording of their show like from the other day.
Also I think it's cool that they probs planned to each lose at one venue and have to eat the vegemite.

Good old phandom

Yup the same group who said that Marianne was going to have lunch with them (she didn't obvs), the same ones who tweeted saying that Dan and Phil gave them "insider information" (dan told them he mixed his sweat with vegemite by mistake when he wiped his forehead, hardly interesting information, i mean it's not like the moving theory of the year confirmed is it) and the ones who said that Dan said he loves meeting them (funnily enough that part of the audio is so hard to hear and you can just hear him saying "ohhhh no worries" when they say sorry for meeting him so many times, which is one of dan's go to phrases). The best thing about the audio is the security dude saying "oh yeah" after he takes their first photo

Tbf to them though, it's their meet and greet and they enjoyed it which is what it's all about. It's just a shame that people need to try and brag so much that D&P love them, and their management love them so much when at the end of the day, you're just another fan who is paying their rent.

It sounds to me like Dan is reminding Phil to not throw the wombat very far so phil will lose.

Hell yeah. Loving Dan's jumper, to be honest I love most of his fashion sense, we have very similar taste although I probably wouldn't pay as much as him as I only have a student loan as an income.

Phil looks lovely in the Khaki shirt, nice to see him in some kind of neutral colours, I find personally that he really suits these kinds of colours, aswell as anything black and also long sleeve plaid/flannel shirts. They just suit him so much.

Nice to see them having a good time, looking forward to the video tomorrow. I start back at uni tomorrow and I'm just going to be waiting the whole day for the video because the thought of uni work is going to drive me insane. :thumb:
