Summer haircut season is officially upon us. Over the weekend, Jessica Biel debuted her new cut, which she referred to as a “f-ck ass bob.” History lesson: The term FAB comes from a 2017 Vine that went viral in which one girl yells at another girl to stop talking with her FAB. My opinion on Jessica’s bob is that the cut wasn’t terrible but it needed layers for volume and much better styling.
Priyanka Chopra, however, understood the assignment. At a Bulgari event on Monday, Priyanka, who usually wears her hair boob-length and wavy with blonde highlights, showed off a new bob cut. It also looks like she went darker with reddish highlights. Oh, and she also paired her new ‘do with $43 million in jewelry. Yup, you heard me right! Forty. Three. Million. In. Jewelry. Now, that’s how you show off a haircut.
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend—just ask Priyanka Chopra. After all, the Baywatch star recently made a dramatic hair transformation—going from long tresses to a choppy bob—just so she could show off her sparkly accessories at a Bulgari event in Rome, Italy, May 20. As she noted on her Instagram Stories, “When the jewels deserve a haircut for a better view.”
Priyanka revealed her drastic hair change at a Bulgari event in Rome, Italy May 20, where she celebrated the brand’s Aeterna collection with fellow ambassadors Anne Hathaway, Liu Yifei, Shu Qi, Hikari Mori, and Alessandro Gassman.
But of course, the 41-year-old’s summer-ready ‘do wasn’t the only swoon-worthy aspect of her getup. She wowed in a black-and-white gown that featured a sculptural peplum top with petal-shaped sleeves draped off the shoulders. The rest of the design also included a see-through, floor-length skirt with a small train.
Completing her look, the Quantico alum let her jewelry pieces steal the spotlight as she wore a 200-carat diamond choker necklace. Its value? A whopping $43 million, according to Glamour.
The one-of-a-kind piece, per the outlet, also took more than 2,800 hours to complete.
Thoughts? I’ll go first! I really, really like this cut on Priyanka. I genuinely do. It looks healthy and IMO, doesn’t age her at all. I also love the waves. I don’t really have a strong opinion about her dress, but only because that’s not really my style. But if you like it, I won’t yuck your yum! It looks nice on her, though. That gazillion dollar necklace is also gorgeous. I cannot even imagine what it would be like to wear that much money worth of jewels around my neck. I’d probably keep reaching up to make sure they were still there. “When the jewels deserve a haircut for a better view” is cute, too. I mentioned when we talked about Biel’s shorter hair that I cut my hair into a bob a couple of months ago and don’t like it at all. Well, I have wavy hair like Priyanka’s and this style is exactly how I pictured my hair would look! I’m now living vicariously through her.
Note by CB: Priyanka was seen wearing extensions again at an event on Tuesday (photo in Instagram and gallery below). Still just as gorgeous as ever.
