Did Ellen DeGeneres Inspire Justin Bieber's New Haircut?
As we watched
Justin Bieber hand over a lock of his newly shorn hair to
Ellen DeGeneres yesterday, we couldn't help but feel like we were seeing double. We rewound the tape, we looked again, we shut one eye and then the other. Yes, it was unmistakable: Bieber's new haircut looks just like Ellen's.
This could be mere coincidence or subtle flattery. The cut looks good on both the talk show host and the pint-sized pop star. But we weren't the only ones who noticed that Bieber's cut didn't exactly seem like an original.
"We love Bieber's new sassy man-pixie! His haircut choice doesn't surprise us though, given the pixie mania that has taken over Hollywood. First Carey Mulligan, then Emma Watson and now the Biebs," says
Lock & Mane style and hair expert Jackie Cascarano. "But not to be outdone, he has his own take on the gamine look. It's a hybrid of Ellen DeGeneres' short cut and Halle Berry's iconic textured look. And he's almost as pretty."
Beauty blogger and author of 'Confessions of a Beauty Addict'
Nadine Jolie saw a resemblance to another lady talk show host.
"I don't know why everybody's making such a big deal of Rachel Maddow's new 'do," Jolie told us. "Bieber's cut looks very 'no-nonsense lesbian' to me!"
Fashionista Senior Editor Leah Chernikoff compared the "Bieber" to a "cartoon baby bird, like a baby Tweety Bird, but fluffier."
Polly Blitzer, editor-in-chief of
Beauty Blitz, thinks the Biebs may just want to show off his pretty little forehead.
"People are getting Botox earlier and earlier these days. Maybe he's ready to let his smooth forehead see the light of day -- and [paparazzi] flashes," Blitzer told us.
While the old shaggy Bieber cut was clearly his own (and a little Hilary Swank), this new look has obviously been inspired by some very powerful Hollywood players, most of them ladies.

lol... exactly
He looks like a 16 year old boy, its just that most lesbians try to look like 16 year old boys too. Check his fingernails if they are cut so short there nonexistent then he might be a lesbian. And we have been tricked.

Who cares about this not talent little piss ant.. he's just a kid who's attractive to 7 yr old girls and gets such unwarranted attention, it's pathetic.
And now he gets all this attention for a haircut? I heard he was selling his cut off hair... how pompous can a person be. Idiots to swoon over this future ego maniac.

it's a fact we all know itll make a lot of money. but the point here is: the money goes to charity
Can anyone explain why an adult audience was screaming and making like they were going to faint when Beiber came out on Ellen? I could understand 8 to 14 year olds but I am talking about the 20 to 40 year old women in her audience.

His old haircut is not new and he did NOT invent it. All three of my brothers and many boys had that haircut in the 70's. Everyone acts like he invented the haircut, NOT.

Ever hear of the Beatles???
I am not a Justin fan, but I do like him.
He is clean cut, and a nice boy. He sings love songs, but is only 16, reminds me of Donny Osmond back in the 70s.
Theres nothing wrong with little girls liking him, even looking up to him. It beats little girls wanting to go to Kaynes concerts, and listening to his music.
