Bella Hadid's Latest Choppy Haircut Is the Summer Trend to Watch
The latest celebrity to do so is Bella Hadid, who just debuted summer's most stylish bangs trend. After debuting golden blonde hair earlier this summer (a color transformation that had been expertly crafted by the hairstylist Syd Hayes), Hadid, it seems, is now experimenting with her lengths, too.
In a campaign for the Milanese brand, Miss Sixty, the model and founder showed off a new choppy set of bangs that fell just above the brow, featuring soft layers and a letterbox-style bangs.
Hadid is no stranger to a hair transformation. During the Cannes Film Festival in May, the model showcased her radiant crème brûlée-blonde tresses, which were a strong color contrast from her classic chocolate lengths. And while she has experimented with bangs before (in 2022, she revealed a new set of bangs for the launch party of Kin Euphorics, a brand she co-founded), this marks her first venture into a glistening blonde with choppy bangs.
If you have been musing over a hair change, look no further. Choppy bangs are seeing a surge in popularity for a number of reasons, and it's more than simply being it-girl approved. It's an easy way to imbue your look with playful, 2000s energy. The choppy texture and layers can also work for a number of different hair types and styles.
For anyone looking to achieve Hadid's bold, textured bangs, it's surprisingly simple. Let your hair air-dry or use a diffuser on low heat to emphasize its natural texture. A texturizing spray can also add some edge for that effortlessly cool-girl look.

Neon sets Oscar path for latest Cannes winner ‘The Secret Agent': Everything to know about the thriller
Could this be the next Anora for Neon? Brazilian political thriller The Secret Agent won four prizes at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival: writer-director Kleber Mendonça Filho won the FIPRESCI Prize, the AFCAE Art House Cinema Award, and Best Director, while star Wagner Moura won Best Actor. More from Gold Derby TIFF reveals its compelling documentary slate featuring Paula Deen, champion whistlers and balloonists 'Deliciously twisted,' 'murderously enjoyable': 'Wednesday' Season 2 reviews surpass Season 1 by double digits Neon picked it up for North American distribution at the festival, along with Palme d'Or winner It Was Just an Accident and second-place Grand Prix winner Sentimental Value, the latter of which is likely Neon's strongest awards contender this year (it's currently sitting at #2 in Gold Derby's combined odds for a Best Picture nomination). The independent distributor hopes to replicate the success it had with Anora, which went from taking Cannes' top prize to winning the Academy Award for Best Picture. The Secret Agent appears to be Neon's third-strongest contender coming out of the festival. Now, the company has set awards season release dates for the film. It will open in New York on Nov. 26, followed by a Los Angeles release on Dec. 5, with a national rollout to follow, per Variety. It is also set to screen at the New York Film Festival this fall. Neon is hoping The Secret Agent will continue its streak of turning Cannes hits into major award winners. Here's what to know about the film as its path comes into focus. What's it about? The Secret Agent is a political thriller set in the waning years of the Brazilian dictatorship. Moura plays a man trying to evade capture by government authorities. Critics describe it as a serious film with a mischievous sense of humor and a digressive narrative structure. Here's the film's official synopsis: 'Brazil, 1977. Marcelo, a technology expert in his early 40s, is on the run. He arrives in Recife during carnival week, hoping to reunite with his son but soon realizes that the city is far from being the non-violent refuge he seeks.' Who's in it? Moura — who is best known to American audiences for his roles as drug kingpin Pablo Escobar on Narcos, a performance that earned him a Golden Globe nomination in 2016, and as journalist Joel in Civil War — leads a cast that also includes Carlos Francisco, Tânia Maria, Robério Diógenes, Maria Fernanda Cândido, Gabriel Leone, and Udo Kier. What are its awards odds? The Secret Agent is a longshot contender for Best Picture. It's currently sitting at 15th in Gold Derby's nomination odds, but that relatively high ranking doesn't tell the whole story, as it's 18 percentage points behind #14, Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein. Mendonça Filho is in a similar position in Best Original Screenplay, as he's at #8 but 18 points behind the next contender. He's at #14 in Best Director odds, which puts him firmly outside of the ranks of top-tier contenders. The Secret Agent is a more likely contender in Best Actor and Best International Film. In addition to the Cannes win, Moura has earned the best reviews of his career for his performance. 'He's always been a good actor, but Mendonça Filho makes him a movie star,' The Hollywood Reporter's David Rooney wrote in his review of the film. Moura is currently sitting at #8 in the Best Actor odds, which in this race is within striking distance of the top five spots, especially if Neon pushes him hard. Gold Derby doesn't have Best International Film odds yet, but The Secret Agent is the third-ranked international film in Best Picture odds, behind Sentimental Value and It Was Just an Accident, which bodes well for its chances.

Sharon Stone has new take on infamous 'Basic Instinct' scene that made her legendary
That scene. Looking back on her infamous "Basic Instinct" leg-crossing scene, Sharon Stone says she wouldn't take it out, despite having had the legal right to do so at the time. "It made me an icon, but it didn't bring me respect," Stone told Business Insider of the controversial moment. She added, "I very much believe that none of us knew at the time what we were getting in regard to that shot, and when [director] Paul [Verhoeven] got it, he didn't want to lose it, and he was scared to show me. And I get that." She said once she calmed down, "I didn't make him take it out of the movie when I had the legal right to. So I did have the chance to do it differently, and I didn't because once I had the chance to step back, I understood, as the director, not the girl in the film, that that made the movie better." Stone went into more detail about her reaction in her memoir "The Beauty of Living Twice." "First, at that time, this would give the film an X rating," Stone explained. "Remember, this was 1992, not now, when we see erect penises on Netflix. And, Marty said, per the Screen Actors Guild, my union, it wasn't legal to shoot up my dress in this fashion. Whew, I thought. After the screening, I let Paul know of the options Marty had laid out for me. Of course, he vehemently denied that I had any choices at all. I was just an actress, just a woman; what choices could I have?" "I very much believe that none of us knew at the time what we were getting in regard to that shot, and when [director] Paul [Verhoeven] got it, he didn't want to lose it, and he was scared to show me. And I get that." She wrote that before she had been called in to see the shot, she had been told "'We can't see anything – I just need you to remove your panties, as the white is reflecting the light, so we know you have panties on.'" Stone wrote that she eventually decided to let it stay in because "it was correct for the film and for the character; and because, after all, I did it." In fact, Stone told Insider that she almost didn't get the part of villainess Catherine Tramell because Michael Douglas, who played the detective investigating her for murder, didn't want to work with an unknown. "Everyone they went out to would turn it down," she explained. "But the thing was, Michael Douglas did not want to put his bare a-- out on the screen with an unknown — and I understood that. He wouldn't even test with me, but that was also for a different reason: We had an argument prior to that." Stone said at the Cannes Film Festival before she was cast in "Basic Instinct" she called him out for talking about someone she knew. "So I said something and he responded to me, saying, 'What the f--- do you know?'" she said. "So he screams this at me across a whole group of people. And I'm not the person who goes, 'Oh, excuse me, superstar.' I pushed back my chair and said to him, 'Let's step outside.' That's how we first met." The pair did indeed go outside, Stone claimed, and she said she explained to him what she knew of the person he was talking about. "And then we parted," she said. "I wouldn't say as best friends, but amicably. So, fast forward to casting 'Basic Instinct,' I don't think he wanted me to be his costar." Reps for Douglas told Insider that he didn't remember seeing Stone at Cannes until they were promoting the film together. Allen Burry, a rep for Douglas, told Fox News Digital, "Michael Douglas has nothing to say beyond what was reported yesterday by People magazine online." Burry told People on Monday that Douglas was "very surprised [by Sharon's quotes]," as "he doesn't remember any argument in that timeframe" between them. "He actually only remembers seeing and meeting Sharon for the first time when he saw [director] Paul Verhoeven's screen test of her for 'Basic Instinct' and [Michael] said, 'Absolutely, she's the one,'" he continued. While Douglas "definitely spent time with" Stone at Cannes, "that was later, when they were promoting 'Basic Instinct' in 1992," Burry said. "And by the time they'd done the movie, they were friends." Stone said the tension helped their onscreen chemistry. "It worked great because I was not rattled if he yelled at me," she said. "That was interesting for the character because Michael has a temper, and I didn't care. That worked very well in our dynamic. Eventually, we became the greatest of friends, to this day. I admire him tremendously."
