Addison Rae clearly wanted to make her Met Gala a debut a memorable one – and we definitely think she achieved that by unexpectedly unveiling an edgy chopped blonde hairstyle that left everyone absolutely speechless!
The 20-year-old TikTok star really turned heads (nothing new there) when she walked the 2021 Met Gala red carpet at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York on Monday night. Not only did she wow the crowd with her vintage crimson-hued floor-length gown designed by Tom Ford for Gucci back in 2003, no less (wearing red is one sure-fire way to command attention, is it not?) but she also made jaws drop with her striking peroxide blonde hairdo. The social media personality took the words blonde bombshell to a whole new level, and we are completely obsessed!

We’ve fallen in love with the TikTok dancer’s signature brown highlighted locks, so it really took us by surprise when she attended the prestigious event sporting a much brighter shade. Not only did she change her hair color, but she went went for a super-dramatic chop too, as her lusciously long mane was gone, and in its place, was a sharp, modern, and totally on-trend shoulder-length bob. It’s safe to say that she can rock both blonde and brunette, and both long and short hairstyles with ease. We’re not jealous, honest…
Rae has a gargantuan social media following, and was named the highest-earning TikTok personality by Forbes in 2020. She is an influencer in every sense of the word, so we predict that sales of hair bleach, peroxide, and very sharp scissors are going to go through the roof!
Would you be brave enough to try Addison's bold new hairstyle?
