Amon-Ra St. Brown Stuns with Bold New Hairstyle Ahead of Detroit Lions’ NFL Playoff Run.
It’s been nothing short of a historic season for the Detroit Lions.
For the first time in franchise history, the Lions have clinched the NFC North title in back-to-back seasons, won 15 games in a single season, and secured the No. 1 seed in the NFC—all significant milestones that are propelling them into the NFL Playoffs with momentum.
As the team prepares for the postseason, star wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is celebrating this monumental achievement. On Friday night, he made a standout appearance at the Detroit Pistons‘ home game against the Golden State Warriors at Little Caesars Arena. Sporting his signature “Honolulu Blue” hair, a style he’s been known for throughout his career, St. Brown was seen in a bright blue fade—perhaps the most iconic display of it yet.
The “Sun God” made a splash on the jumbotron, receiving a massive cheer from fans, alongside fellow standout, Jahmyr Gibbs, the Lions’ star running back. It was a memorable moment that captured the excitement of the season.
Both St. Brown and Gibbs were recently named to the Pro Bowl, joined by teammates: Jared Goff (quarterback), Penei Sewell (tackle), Frank Ragnow (center), Brian Branch (strong safety), and Jack Fox (punter).
With the NFL Playoffs set to begin Saturday afternoon, the Lions are now just days away from discovering their next opponent in the Divisional Round. This comes after earning a well-deserved bye week as the top seed in the NFC.

Ex-Detroit Lions WR to Host Revamped Edition of ‘Hollywood Squares’
Live from the studio, we have some exciting news for fans of both sports and game shows alike. Nate Burleson, the former Detroit Lions wide receiver, is taking on a new role as the host of the revived classic game show Hollywood Squares. Premiering Thursday, January 9, 2025, at 8:00 p.m. ET on CBS, the show brings a fresh twist to the iconic format.
As many of you may recall, Burleson spent the final four years of his career with the Lions, ranking 35th in the franchise’s history for receiving yards. Over the course of four seasons from 2010-2013, he caught 194 passes, totaling 2,083 yards and 12 touchdowns. But now, he’s trading in his football cleats for a microphone.
Hollywood Squares will feature contestants playing tic-tac-toe with a rotating panel of celebrity guests, all vying for cash and prizes. Of course, the fun comes with the unpredictability of what answers the celebrities might give—anything can happen!
Alongside hosting Hollywood Squares, Burleson continues his work as co-host of CBS Mornings and is an Emmy Award-winning studio analyst for The NFL Today. His football career spanned 11 seasons, also playing for the Minnesota Vikings and the Seattle Seahawks. And let’s not forget, in 2024, Burleson was a part of the first-ever alternate telecast of the Super Bowl, which aired exclusively on Nickelodeon.
Each episode of Hollywood Squares will also feature a star-studded lineup of celebrity guests, including Tyra Banks, Julie Bowen, Yvette Nicole Brown, Whitney Cummings, Tiffany Haddish, Oliver Hudson, Pete Holmes, Gabriel Iglesias, Jo Koy, Jay Leno, Justin Long, Kevin Nealon, RuPaul, Andrew Rannells, Kristen Schaal, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, and more.
And here’s a heads-up: Hollywood Squares will move to a new time slot starting January 29, airing Wednesdays at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT.
Don’t miss the premiere—Nate Burleson is about to bring his signature charm and energy to a game show that promises to be just as entertaining as his football career!
