FOO FIGHTERS STAR DAVE GROHL UNRECOGNISABLE AT WIMBLEDON WITH SLICK NEW LOOK

Dave Grohl looked unrecognisable at Wimbledon today when he rocked up for the second day of the tennis tournament.

The Foo Fighters star, 55, who recently performed with his best-selling band at the London Stadium, was in SW19 with his wife, Jordyn Blum, who also looked dapper.

Sporting a crisp navy suit, mustard tie, tan suede loafers and designer sunglasses, Dave looked a world away from his rocker roots with his hair tied back as he made his way to Centre Court.

Jordyn also cut an elegant figure with her platinum blonde hair pulled back into a plait, wearing cream Gucci sandals, a sky-blue pleated skirt with matching blouse and blazer - plus a pair of tortoiseshell shades.

Dave was in London in June when the Foo Fighters played to their legion of loyal fans in the Lower Lea Valley. The Learning to Fly stars are one of the world's best-selling bands. However, they weren't the only ones performing in the capital.

Taylor Swift was also in London for her phenomenally successful Eras Tour gig. During her headline-hitting performances, she and Dave got into a bit of slanging match when the Pretender star accused of her of not singing live.

During the Foo Fighters’ show at London Stadium, Dave joked: “We like to call our tour the ‘Errors Tour.’ We’ve had more than a few eras, and more than a few f**king errors as well. Just a couple.” Grohl paused, before concluding, “That’s because we actually play live.”

Taylor's fans were furious after the comment, but Foo Fighters fans reminded them that Dave's daughter, Violet, allegedly received death threats when she questioned Tay Tay's infamous use of her private jet.

Taking to X, formerly Twitter, the 18-year-old posted: "Why can't Taylor Swift just drive like everyone else." Violet's comment, which has since been deleted, didn't go down well with Swifties and Taylor was criticised for not speaking up or asking her fans to stop the backlash.

Linking the post to Dave's dig at Taylor, one person posted: "Wow I wonder what prompted Dave Grohl to take a little swipe at Taylor Swift? I’m sure it’s totally unprovoked & not at all to do with his 17-year-old daughter being relentlessly trolled & sent death threats from Swifties because of this totally innocuous tweet back in January."

However, responding to this, a Taylor fan said: "You do not attack another artist because your daughter is beefing with that artist’s FANS. Taylor Swift is in the midst of the biggest tour on the planet. She’s done immeasurable good and boosted local economies every time she shows up. Dave and company need to calm down."

Appearing to respond to Dave's dig, Taylor told her fans at Wembley Stadium: "What you just did was an unforgettable moment for every one of my band members, every single one of our crew, my band that’s playing live for you for three and a half hours tonight. They deserve this so much."
