David Letterman now looks unrecognizable

Posted
and last updated

Now that former late night television comedian David Letterman is well into retirement, his appearance is rather shocking. In a picture released by the Daily Mail, Letterman is seen jogging while on the Caribbean island of St. Barts. 

Instead of the clean shaven, well kept television personality Americans saw on TV for decades, Letterman now sports a beard that could make Grizzly Adams step up his game. Letterman also had a shaved head. 

Letterman stepped down from host of CBS' "Late Show" in May 2015. He was replaced by Stephen Colbert. Since retiring, Letterman has only made a handful of appearances. 

The photos of Letterman circulating through the internet has caused a stir on social media.
