Halle Berry set social media ablaze on Sunday when she showed up on the Oscars red carpet donning a brunette bob haircut and bangs.
The "Monster’s Ball" actress, 54, responded to the viral moment and internet jokes about her hair transformation many thought to be permanent at the 93rd Academy Awards by sharing a new selfie to Instagram and Twitter that the joke was on everyone else.
"Oscar bob..."just kidding 😂," the Netflix director captioned a selfie of herself amid a luscious green backdrop – her signature black and gold curls shining and flowing effortlessly over her shoulders as Berry flashes a spry grin revealing her pearl white teeth.
She added a follow-up tweet, adding, "love you guys and your memes. xx"
In the hours leading up to the Oscars, hairstylist Sara Seward teased Berry’s carpet look on Instagram, writing, "We came to play ... ✂️✂️✂️ @halleberry #oscars2021" and posted a photo of Berry's bronze locks on the floor.
