We all know Blake Lively is a fan of the red-bottomed Christian Louboutins, but was she taking it too far when she recently became a red-head. Check out her new hairdo here.
Our sun-kissed, Gossip Girl, blonde bombshell has gone ginger. When the public has only known someone with a consistent hair color over the years, it's a shock when it changes overnight. It's as if we have a serious problem with celebrity change. Our society hates when celeb couples split, when they wear an ugly dress to the Oscars, and apparently, when they color their hair.
This is because we are comfortable with people in the public eye the way they are. It disrupts our world when Perez Hilton tells us that Eva Longoria is getting a divorce or that Lauren Conrad chopped her beach-waved hair (which happened a while ago people, she wore extensions). And the funny thing is, we normal folks embrace change in our own lives ... but the truth is a marriage only has a 50 percent chance of making it whether your Joe Schmo or Brad Pitt (see the dude's already been divorced once).
Could our frame of mind be because so-called "stars" are supposed to be better than us. As if they are already so perfect, why change anything? Well, they aren't. Their bank accounts may be higher and they may have five houses, but sometimes they want to change the color of their hair too. So give Blake a break. Even though she probably went to a fancy salon for her dye job instead of picking up Loreal Preference 8C at the local pharmacy.
As for Miss Lively, I'm not a fan of the ginger look on her. But, who am I to say. I wonder how long she'll have it if Karl Lagerfeld wants her blonde in the next Chanel handbag advertisement. And, I wonder what Penn Badgley thinks? I hear they are getting cozy again. If so, I hope they don't break up ... society will blame the fiery red-head.
The point is that 'famous' people are just like us. They sleep and have smelly shit. So, when they want to change their hair or wear something crazy ... it's ok. The whole world may not love it, but I'm pretty sure the entire human species isn't all about your hair, but you can still rock it.
