Stop the world, I want to get off. Taylor Swift just entered her femme fatale era with a jet black bob haircut, and naturally, I am not okay.
In a plot twist absolutely no one saw coming, our blonde bombshell has traded in her signature soft waves and honeyed highlights for a razor-sharp, jet-black blunt bob, complete with a jagged, brow-grazing fringe that screams French retro cinema meets graphic novel villainess. Think: Pulp Fiction's Mia – mystery with a side of vengeance.
The dramatic hairdo made its Instagram debut in promo shots for her upcoming twelfth studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, first unveiled during a guest appearance on the New Heights podcast hosted by Travis and Jason Kelce.
And if the visuals are anything to go by, this era is about to be as iconic as Tay's winged liner. Scroll to the third slide in the carousel post below to see all that we're describing.
Gone is the “August” cardigan girl twirling in fields, and hello Taylor 2.0: slick, striking, and dripping in dark pop drama.
The new album (out Oct. 3, mark your calendars) is co‑produced with longtime collaborators Max Martin and Shellback, who are also the masterminds behind some of Taylor's greatest hits, including “Blank Space” and “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.”
So, we're expecting high-gloss anthems and emotions for days! Oh, and the new look? It's the icing on top of her ultimate reinvention cake.
T-minus 50 days, people!!
