Billie Eilish stuns fans as she debuts short strawberry blonde bob after ditching long black hair

Billie Eilish stunned fans as she debuted a short strawberry blonde bob in an Instagram post on Thursday.

The singer, 24, showcased her dramatic transformation after ditching her trademark long black hair.

Billie paired the video with audio from the 1994 Pavement song Cut Your Hair and was met with a wave of compliments on her post.

'Obsessed,' 'perfect', 'Okkk Billlieeee', 'It suits you so well!!!' fans wrote in her comments. 

Billie appeared to enjoy some downtime after a busy few weeks filming The Bell Jar, in which she is set to make her big screen acting debut as Esther Greenwood. 

She plays a 19-year-old college student who falls into depression after taking a magazine internship in New York City in 1953. 

Back in August, Billie looked straight out of another era as she threw herself into the role for another day of filming.

Known for wearing loose-fitting T-shirts and trousers, it's a look that would have any Billie fan doing double takes.

She previously revealed why she chooses to wear unconventionally baggy looks for a pop star – a contrast to hyper-feminine peers like Sabrina Carpenter and Tate McRae.

She told Elle that she experiences 'gender euphoria' when she styles herself in her oversized looks, often consisting of men's apparel.

'I had a really, really toxic relationship with my body. I had a lot of eating issues. I remember putting on, like, a big shirt and the relief that I felt,' she explained.

Listing hip-hop stars Missy Elliott and Tyler, The Creator among her style icons, Billie said that her 'love for hip-hop culture and wanting to be a man' also influenced her present aesthetic.

'This is the misogyny that we all have within us…which is that I didn't want to be seen as feminine, and therefore weak. It's not right. I've found a good way of not feeling like that.'

Meanwhile, Billie is now taking her talents onto the big screen.  

In Plath's story, Esther's clinical depression leads to a suicide attempt and hospitalisation after she lands a glamorous internship in New York City in 1953.

Similarly, Billie has been open throughout her career about her struggle with depression, anxiety and self-harm.

Esther, who undergoes ECT shock therapy in the narrative, is on a quest to forge an identity in an oppressive patriarchal society.

The book title is a metaphor for the sense of suffocation brought on by the main character's precarious mental state.

The Bell Jar is Polley's fifth directorial feature, following 2022's Women Talking, 2012's Stories We Tell, 2011's Take This Waltz, and 2006's Away from Her.

Carey Mulligan has also joined the cast as Eilish's mother, according to Variety. 

According to Variety, Heated Rivalry sensation Connor Storrie is rumored to also have a role in The Bell Jar.

Plath's book has long been believed to be a semi-autobiographical depiction as the author was offered an internship at Mademoiselle in 1953 before becoming a patient at the upscale McLean Hospital. She took her own life at age 30.
