When it comes to celebrities in Hollywood, dramatic transformations<\/a> are basically part of the job description. We have seen stars switch things up countless times over the years. Think Jason Momoa shaving off his signature beard<\/a> or Nicole Kidman going bright red<\/a> for a magazine cover. But the latest celebrity makeover honestly caught me off guard, mostly because it comes from someone who has practically built her entire image around being blonde. I’m talking about Paris Hilton<\/a>. The icon just debuted dark brown locks and I almost didn’t recognize her.<\/p>\n The media personality and businesswoman<\/a>, 45, stepped out at the Gucci fashion show in Times Square on May 16 with her new chocolate brown hair, a major departure from her iconic platinum blonde look. For the runway appearance, she wore a canary yellow belted dress paired with black heeled boots, accessorized with a fur coat draped over one shoulder and a cherry red handbag in hand.<\/p>\n After the show, the mother of two<\/a> shared several photos and videos from the event on social media and reflected on the moment in the caption.<\/p>\n \u201cGucci Girl forever\u2026It was such a dream to walk the runway for @Demna\u2019s debut @Gucci Cruise collection,” Paris wrote. “Demna, you are a true visionary and it was so iconic to take over Times Square with you #GucciCore #IconsOnly.\u201d<\/p>\n Fans immediately flooded the comments section with reactions to the brunette transformation.<\/p>\n \u201cWow Paris, that hair makes you look like a completely new person. I honestly didn\u2019t even recognize you at first. Now this is getting fun haha,\u201d one person wrote.<\/p>\n Another added, \u201cBrunette Paris is soooo cool!!!\u201d while a third referred to brunette Paris as her \u201calter ego.\u201d<\/p>\n The brunette era did not last very long, though.<\/p>\n Just one day later, Paris was already back to blonde while sharing Instagram Stories from her DJ set at the 2026 Tecate Emblema music festival in Mexico City.<\/p>\n Blonde or brunette, Paris Hilton clearly knows how to switch it up.<\/p>\n Want all the latest entertainment news sent right to your inbox?
