Remember when Calvin Harris had this beard for the majority of 2017?
Well, if you loved the beard (which I was kind of into!) I have bad news for you - it's gone now.
And Calvin took to Instagram and Twitter to explain what that beard was all about and why he has decided to shave it off. Aaaand his reasoning might surprise you a bit.
Calvin shared this photo:
And an explanation of what that beard was all about!
He says he grew the "big ol beard" to be "taken seriously by the Grammys as a producer." And that to an extent, his experimental beard actually worked! He was nominated for Producer of the Year.
But, alas, Sunday rolled around and he was not awarded the big prize because he lost to "the incredible Greg Kurstin."
Greg Kurstin, mind you, is known for working with artists like Sia, Kelly Clarkson, Ellie Goulding, Adele, and Halsey. So, you know, I think it's fair to call him "the incredible" and to be okay with losing a major award to him.
Calvin added to the caption that he learned a good lesson this past year: "A big ol beard can only take you so far."
And with that, Calvin says he's happy to be done with the beard and move into 2018.
That's that!
Maybe next year we'll get to see Calvin win a Grammy Award - with or without a "big ol beard."
