Zendaya left everyone speechless as soon as she appeared at the Emmys with her hair much shorter than usual.
The actress debuted a pixie cut that quickly prompted people on social media to compare her to Halle Berry, especially the look that the Oscar winner made one of her signature styles during the 2000s.
Side-by-side photos began circulating almost immediately, and many people noticed similarities in the length, the way it was styled, and that slightly tousled finish that made Halle’s style so recognizable.
Zendaya completed the change with a sparkling Prada dress, but much of the conversation ended up focusing on her hair and the possible reference behind the look.
There is no confirmation that Halle Berry was actually the inspiration, but the comparison was so immediate that many interpreted it as a small tribute.
And seeing both images together, it’s perfectly clear why the internet reached the same conclusion so quickly.
