Kate Beckinsale Went Platinum Blonde and No Longer Looks Like Kate Beckinsale — See the Photos

Kate Beckinsale, is that you? You look so different as a blonde that I almost can’t believe what I’m seeing!

Beckinsale, who has been synonymous with bombshell brunette hair since the early 2000s, just made a major, major change for a Roger Vivier holiday dinner in Los Angeles. The actor ditched her long hair in favor of a beachy, wavy bob, but the real shocker is that she’s now a bright, sunny blonde.

Hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos transformed the star from her go-to highlighted brunette to a light, golden, near-platinum blonde, which he cheekily called a “blob,” a.k.a., a blonde bob, on Instagram. It’s not an all-over color, but rather a rooty blonde that transitions from light brunette at the root to pale gold mid-lengths and ends. Beckinsale’s bob hits between her chin and collarbones and is styled in tousled waves to show off the color. Makeup artist Jose Corella paired the blonde with a vibrant red lip that matched Beckinsale’s crimson suit and a shimmery gold eye. I’ve got just two words for this: Bomb. Shell. (Okay, technically, that’s one word, but I digress.)
