Nicole Kidman turns heads with surprising hair change at CMA awards

Nicole Kidman dazzled fans with a dramatic hair makeover on Friday as she attended the Country Music Awards with her husband, Keith Urban.

When the happy couple arrived at the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas, they appeared cheerful, but all eyes were on one surprising detail.

Just days after making headline for her new pixie cut at the 2025 Met Gala on Tuesday, the 57-year-old Australian actress showed up at the music event sporting incredibly long locks once again.

The question of whether the Hollywood star’s edgy Met Gala hairstyle was a wig has sparked intense speculation all week.

According to Daily Mail Australia’s in-house hair expert, the striking short look was created using hair magic, a technique that combine her natural hair with extension.

However, Kidman seems determined to keep everyone guessing, arriving at the awards show looking chic with long, flowing blonde hair once more.

The Holland star accessorised the unexpected look with a structured, sleeveless leather top from Monse, featuring a matte sheen and a high turtle neck.

She paired it with black slacks featuring fabric panels that draped over her legs on either side, underneath the bold top.
