Gabrielle Union, 48, chops off her long hair & says new cut is ‘foreign’ to her – but fans love her ‘Betty Boop’ look
GABRIELLE Union, 48, chopped off her long hair and said that her new cut was "foreign" to her - but the fans loved her 'Betty Boop' look.
Gabrielle showed off her new haircut in her new snapshots on Instagram.
The 48-year-old actress teased that "she did a thing."
The former America's Got Talent judge wanted to change how "movies always show women cutting their hair when all is lost."
In the snapshots, the TV star also wore gold necklaces and round earrings with her stunning outfit.
Gabrielle captioned the snaps: "I wanted to know the feeling of making a change when things are gravy."
Although she loved the "new" hairdo, the L.A.'s Finest actress admitted that the short style "hits different" and felt "foreign to" her.
'THE BIG CHOP'
In her Instagram stories, the Bring It On actress showed off more of her "big chop" as she wore a fancy black dress.
Fans jumped onto the comments section to praise her makeover.
A fan cheered: "Betty Booper could NEVA!"
Another fan wrote: "Post should have come with a warning!!! She got phones meltin."
A third person said: "Yasss queen."
'SO CUTE'
A fourth admirer added: "So cuuuuuute" with heart emojis.
A commentator chimed in: "You look stunning."
Gabrielle has been married to NBA star Dwyane Wade, 39, since 2014.
Last year, the Night Stalker actress filed a harassment complaint against the America's Got Talent producers after accusations of on-set racism and a lack of accountability, which she first made in November 2019.
She also accused NBC Entertainment Chairman Paul Telegdy of threatening her over plans to whistleblow what she perceived as racism on set.
'DIVERSITY ON THE SHOW'
A statement from NBC sent to The Sun read: "The allegation that anyone involved in this process threatened Ms. Union is categorically untrue.
"We took Ms. Union‘s concerns seriously, and engaged an outside investigator who found an overarching culture of diversity on the show.
"NBCUniversal remains committed to creating an inclusive and supportive working environment where people of all backgrounds are treated with respect."
Gabrielle left the NBC competition show back in 2019 due to the "toxic culture” as the reason for her departure.
She claimed to Variety that she was “poisoned” by Simon Cowell’s on-set smoking, which she alleged that he did indoors, despite her being severely allergic.

The movie star alleged that she "couldn't escape it,” and was “sick for two months straight.”
A spokesperson for Simon told the outlet: “When he was directly informed of the smoking complaint during the first couple of days of the season, he immediately changed his behavior and the issue was never raised again.”
