Charlize Theron turned heads on May 8 as she arrived at the Jimmy Kimmel Live! studio in Los Angeles to promote her long-awaited film The Old Guard 2. While her sharp black blazer and sheer skirt made a strong fashion statement, it was her bold new hairstyle that truly stole the spotlight.
The actress debuted a striking bob cut, a style now dubbed the “cunty little bob” by fans and stylists alike. Theron’s version of the trend featured a blunt edge that hit just at her jawline, perfectly framing her sculpted features. The hairstyle also showcased an ombré blonde color, transitioning from darker roots to lighter ends, which added texture and dimension. She skipped accessories, allowing the haircut’s clean lines and powerful vibe to speak for themselves.
Originally popularized by White Lotus star Leslie Bibb and her hairstylist Chris McMillan in March, the edgy bob has become one of the most buzzed-about styles in recent weeks. Stars like Michelle Williams, Julia Fox, and others have since adopted the look, helping to push the bob revival into new territory.
With her fresh cut and confident styling, Theron shows once again why she remains a fashion and beauty icon—and why the bob isn’t going out of style anytime soon.
