Kylie Jenner's hairstylist Jesus Guerrero's cause of death revealed after shock passing aged 34
The cause of death of Kylie Jenner's hairstylist Jesus Guerrero has been released almost four months after his sudden passing. Jesus, whose celebrity clientele included Kylie and Jennifer Lopez, died at a hospital in Los Angeles on February 22, 2025, shortly after working with Lopez in Dubai. Guerrero died from a severe form of pneumonia, per a report from the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner. Causes of death listed are Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PCP) - a fungal infection that primarily affects people with weakened immune systems - and Cryptococcus neoformans, a serious fungal infection that can spread to multiple organs and tissues in the body. The report also listed Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) - the most advanced stage of HIV infection - as a secondary cause. His manner of death is listed as natural. Guerrero's death was announced by his family on social media on February 23, shortly after he was in Dubai with Lopez. Prior to his trip overseas, he had spent time with Jenner in Los Angeles. Jenner broke her silence on Guerrero's death days later, writing on Instagram: 'Jesus was more than my friend - he was a light in my life, a source of laughter, comfort, love, and unwavering support. 'I don't know how I would have made it through the last almost decade without him by my side. He had a way of making even the heaviest days feel lighter. 'Thank you, Jesus, for always being there for me, for lifting me up, for being my friend. 'The pain of losing you is just unbearable and I don't know how to move forward without you but I know great grief is born only of great love. And I loved you so much.' Jenner added: 'You were the best person, with a talent that was unmatched. a true artist. You inspired so many, and you always will. 'Your words, your laughter, your kindness, your beautiful spirit will live in my heart forever. I'll cherish all our moments together. every laugh and hug. I wish I could hug you again. 'I laid in your bed the way you used to lay in mine, talking for hours. I would give anything for one more deep talk. I'm going to miss you so much. more than any words can say. 222 my angel.' Guerrero was buried in his native Houston, Texas a month after his death, with both Jenner and Lopez in attendance, TMZ reports. His sister Gris had previously confirmed in a GoFundMe update on February 25 that Jenner offered to cover his 'funeral expenses and offering up all her help and support.' 'She has told us anything we need. Jesus was family to her, and she was family to him,' Gris told Us Weekly. 'She has kept an open line. Anything we need, any questions we have, she has been there for us. 'She wants his memory to be honored and wants to do as much as she can so he gets the farewell he deserves.' Guerrero also handled the tresses of Jessica Alba, Rosalía, Demi Moore, Charli XCX, Camila Cabello, Dua Lipa, Jessica Alba, and Shay Mitchell.

Kim Kardashian's hairstylist Chris Appleton leaves little to the imagination in TINY speedo
Kim Kardashian 's go-to hairstylist Chris Appleton flaunted his gym-honed figure in a tiny white speedo while on the beach in Cannes this week. The 41-year-old British hunk bared his ripped abdomen and bulging biceps while cooling off in the ocean. He accessorized with a dark beaded necklace and narrow black sunglasses as he waded hip-deep in the sea. Appleton — who recently transformed Kim's mom Kris Jenner — took a swig from a glass water bottle at one point. His short, sandy-colored hair was perfectly tousled and he sported a thin, scruffy beard while soaking up the sun solo. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. On Thursday he engaged his Instagram audience of four million as he took to the app's Stories feature to upload two posts. One of them was a brief black and white video snippet showing him opening an invitation to the amfAR Gala. The invite teased a performance from Adam Lambert and listed Taraji P. Henson as the host. He tagged his location as Hotel Martinez — where Selling Sunset stars Emma Hernan and Jason Oppenheim were spotted days ago. Appleton, who is dad to two adult children, also posted a mirror selfie as he prepared for his evening out in France. His visage was covered in a rejuvenating face mask and he wore a plush white robe with the hotel's logo. Chris has been doing 44-year-old Kim's hair for nearly a decade, and styled her raven locks as recently as last week when she was in Paris. Sharing a video of the mom-of-four sporting a sleek and taut updo online several days ago, he wrote, 'Last night in Paris, I wanted Kim's updo to speak volumes—timeless, but with a strong edge to complement a look. Definitely a favorite.'

He said, 'Nine years ago in Paris, Kim and I stared working together, and we created a moment that would set the tone for so many more to come. 'Since then, we've shared a lifetime of transformations—on the outside and in. We've been through marriages, divorces & milestones.' He added in the heartfelt note, 'But through it all, I've had the privilege of standing beside someone who isn't just beautiful, but loyal, strong, and real.

EXCLUSIVE The JAW-DROPPING yearly cost women are saving at the salon with 'recession blonde' hair
Rachael, 27, had to break up with her hairstylist after the cost of dyeing her hair blonde had become too expensive for her budget. 'I could buy a plane ticket to Europe with one hair appointment,' she told And she's not alone, as millions of women across the United States have declared themselves too broke to shell out hundreds of dollars on high-maintenance dye jobs at the salon. Enter 'recession blonde'. The trend, which has recently taken over both TikTok and real-life hair salons, refers to low-maintenance colors and cuts that allow people to scale back on their spending amid woes of economic uncertainty. On social media, photos and videos of recession blonde have gone viral, as life-long blondes showcase their grown-out dark brown roots and cite money troubles as their reason why they have yet to touch up their contrasting locks. However, not everyone is willing to ditch the self-care tradition of dyeing their hair. Instead, they're opting for more manageable (and frugal) shades of blonde. According to expert hair stylists, an increasing number of clients are requesting these money-saving services, and some even think the 'recession blonde' trend is here to stay. Kate Ross, a 25-year-old beauty PR manager living in New York City, has been dyeing her hair platinum blonde every six to eight weeks for the last five years. With each session, which costs Kate up to $350, she was dishing out a whopping $1,800 to $2,100 a year at the salon, and that's not including tips or haircare products like purple shampoo. The frequent touch-ups required for platinum blonde were draining Kate's budget, so after learning about the recession blonde trend on social media, Kate instantly decided she needed a transformation. 'With rising costs – rent, groceries, everything – I needed to cut back without losing my style,' she told Instead of her usual icy blonde, this time Kate went for a warmer, darker blonde with softer roots. Now, she visits the salon every 12 to 16 weeks, paying just $150 for partial highlights and a cut. 'That switch saves me over $1,000 a year,' she revealed. Kate's math isn't entirely wrong, said Jessica Ruby of The Flamingo Lounge hair salon in Los Angeles. For Jessica, who's been doing hair for over 20 years, this isn't the first time she's seen people cut corners at the salon amid financial strain. As such, she's begun to offer her loyal customers a sliding scale of services – pay what you can, when you can. She needs to keep the lights on too, of course. 'With my regular clients, if they come to me and say, "I can't afford this, my husband just got laid off," I will say, "What is a budget that you can work with?"' The most popular recession-proof styles currently being requested at salons, according to stylists, is a 'hand painted balayage' or 'reverse balayage,' a coloring technique that creates a softer, multidimensional transition from root to end; a 'money piece,' which offers highlights around the face; and a 'gloss,' a low-cost color service that adds shine to otherwise dull hair. While these recession blonde styles may still cost a pretty penny, averaging between $200 to $400 depending on the salon, Jessica revealed that some customers have saved thousands of dollars by visiting the salon less frequently with these low-maintenance treatments. A 2024 report from Advanced Dermatology found American women spend an average $1,064 per year on their appearance – with women spending $286 per year on haircuts and hair coloring alone. However, one in six women admitted to spending more on beauty and wellness than they can afford. The study also found that nearly one in 10 Americans have gone into debt to pay for appearance-related products and services, with the average debt amounting to $1,342. This was unsurprising to Kristina Maccaro, the founder of Love Lane Salon in Jersey City, New Jersey. She's witnessed first-hand a downturn in clients shelling out hundreds of dollars for their usual color and cut. 'One of the things that we're hearing a lot right now is just how to be more cost-effective, and how to be lower maintenance with in-salon services or just routines in general,' she said. For Hope, the threat of potentially losing her job forced her to retire her dyed bleach blonde hair and embrace her natural-born dark roots 'Some of those touch ups can range from $200 to $700 a session, so clients are definitely concerned. 'They're embracing looks now that have more low lighting and more lived in dimension,' Kristina continued. 'We have a lot of clients who have families, so they're thinking about their obligations to their children, or other bills that they're starting to see increase.' For Hope, a 25-year-old database manager at a non-profit company, the threat of potentially losing her job forced her to retire her dyed bleach blonde hair and embrace her natural dark roots. She went into her local salon in Brooklyn and asked for a reverse balayage, despite her internal monologue attempting to convince her that the darker hair color will 'take away' from her bright and sunny personality. But for Hope, the freedom to spend a few hundred dollars on her hair only twice a year, compared to once every three months, was worth the mental gymnastics. Plus, seeing hundreds of other women on TikTok show off their recession blonde results has made Hope feel cautiously optimistic that she'll implement the money-saving hack for many years to come. 'In the back of my head, I think seeing people avoid bleaching their hair as a trend has made me not want to bleach it as often because, at the end of the day, I'm a follower of the trends,' she said. Recession blonde isn't the only cost-saving beauty trend to emerge online in the wake of President Donald Trump's tariffs. Do-it-yourself goods like hair glossing kits, press-on nails, lash extensions, self-tanners, brow lamination kits, and at-home waxing products have risen in popularity for salon results without the hefty price tag. Young women are also buying 'dupes,' products similar in appearance and functionality without the high price tag, especially when it comes to more affordable makeup and beauty products. Not only has 50-year-old Liz spent the last four months letting her dark roots grow out, but she's also cut back on trips to the nail salon too. 'My manis and pedis are off the budget and I'm letting my roots grow in, and will only be going to the salon three times a year at most, but more likely twice a year,' the Idaho-based marketing and PR executive told And Tracy, who's spent up to $400 every eight weeks on her high-maintenance platinum hair for the last 15 years, has reduced her hair salon budget to just $50 to $80 every three months. 'For me, the change is permanent,' she said. 'I might get some highlights in the future, however, I'm keeping it natural because it just feels better – more me, less pressure.' Recession blonde is just one of the hundreds of beauty trends to emerge on social media in recent years, but both life-long blondes and expert hair stylists agree this particular trend actually has staying power regardless of economic uncertainty. Not only is recession blonde more cost-friendly and lower maintenance than a full-head of highlights or bleach blonde locks, but it's also more appealing to the eye. 'I honestly think this trend is not going away because it just looks better,' said Nikki Corzine, the founder of Canyon Salon in Westlake Village, California. 'When you have a little bit of depth at your root, it just brings out your features and it overall looks better on people's skin tone.' For now, it's unclear exactly how much the beauty and haircare industry will be impacted by a potential recession. After all, some financial experts have long theorized that women actually spend more money on self-care goods and services during economic uncertainty – cough, cough, the 'lipstick effect' – as a way to treat themselves for being otherwise frugal in all other aspects of life.

KIM KARDASHIAN'S MET GALA LOOKS OVER THE YEARS BY HEIDI PARKER Kim Kardashian has made some striking fashion statements at the annual Met Gala in New York City over the years. During her first year (2013) at the splashy, star-studded event she had on a tight floral-print dress that made the most of her very pregnant belly as she posed with Kanye West. Later she would be seen in a gold column dress, a silver suit that made her look like a robot, a see-through lace wonder and a dress that came in so tight she had to wear a waist trainer for weeks beforehand. In 2021 she covered her face with black cloth in a shocking move as she shared she had a full face of makeup on underneath for some reason. In 2022 the siren slipped into Marilyn Monroe's old Happy Birthday Mr President gown as she was seen with boyfriend-at-the-time Pete Davidson. In 2023, the SKIMS founder was draped in pearls, and in 2024 the diva wore a cardigan with a silver gown. In 2025 the diva modeled a tailored black leather off-the-shoulder dress with a hat. Here is a look back at the pricey togs The Kardashians star has tried out during the most important night in fashion. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2013 - GIVENCHY Her first time at the Met Gala was for PUNK: Chaos to Couture in 2013. She was pregnant with North and wore a floral print dress from Givenchy. The California native said that she was not invited but rather was Kanye West's plus one. Sadly, after the gala she 'cried' because she was so insecure about everything, she has said. '2013 Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy. I was Kanye's plus one & so nervous! I didn't know anyone & I'm sure no one wanted me there lol. I did my own lipstick & the color is so off. I went home & cried after of insecurity but this is one of my fave looks now,' said the TV vet. 2014 - LANVIN In 2014, Kim had on a blue strapless Lanvin outfit as Kanye had on black. The theme was Charles James: Beyond Fashion. The daughter of Kris Jenner said it was the first time she had been invited on her own. 'My dress was originally made of this amazing leather with metallic detailing,' Kim said earlier. 'But we decided at the last minute to redo it in blue satin.' 2015 - ROBERTO CAVALLI She wore a very sheer and sexy lace and net gown by Roberto Cavalli for the May 2015 event. Her jet-black hair was slicked back and she modeled huge diamond earrings. And the star posed with rapper husband West, who went with a black suit and boots. The theme was celebrating China: Through the Looking Glass. 2016 - BALMAIN Kardashian tried out silver at the Manus x Machina: Fashion In An Age Of Technology in 2016. She wore Balmain, a shimmery silver dress that looked like a futuristic gown with a slit up the side. West was in the same designer. She said: '2016 Olivier Rousteing for Balmain. I was back to insecure this year because I hadn't lost all of my baby weight. 'Big mistake to bleach the brows but Kanye looked so good this year with those blue eyes! It was super controversial that he wore denim.' Earlier she had noted: 'I thought Balmain was the perfect choice for me and Kanye, especially. I think Kanye's look is a little bit more downplayed with the denim mixed with all the Balmain bling.' 2017 - VIVIENNE WESTWOOD In 2017 the theme was Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garcons: Art of the In-Between. The Selfish author had on a white Vivienne Westwood off-the-shoulder dress with no jewelry and strappy heels. In the bus ride to the event she had to stand up so the dress would not wrinkle and she said she was already sweating and had to use the bathroom because she was so nervous. The pal of Paris Hilton said, '2017 Vivienne Westwood. 'This was my first year going solo. I was so nervous to go by myself I almost threw up on the way & I had to pee every second. 'I was FaceTiming my sisters to meet up at the top of the stairs. Vivienne made me this beautiful dress from her archive.' 2018 - VERSACE Kim attended the Heavenly Bodies: Fashion & The Catholic Imagination Costume Institute Gala alone in 2018. She said this gold mesh Versace dress fit her like a 'glove.' Kardashian added, 'I knew exactly what I wanted and was most confident this year. 90's, chainmail, sexy and simple.' She looked sensational with her hair partially up with a long curl down her chest. She added a cross necklace with diamonds to match the cross on her dress. 2019 - THIERRY MUGLER Kardashian was in a wet look for Camp: Notes on Fashion in 2019. She had to wear a waist trainer to get her midsection as small as possible to pull off this Thierry Mugler dress. The look was supposed to be 'wet' which is why she had crystals that looked like raindrops coming off of her. Her hair also looked wet as she had oiled skin with shimmering eye shadow and a glossy lip. 2021 - BALENCIAGA Kim shocked fans when she wore a head to toe black look that covered her famous face in 2021. Later the red carpet fixture said that she was fully made up under that face sock which seemed like a lot of effort for no payoff. Turns out, it was not her favorite move. 'I fought against it. I was like, I don't know how I could wear the mask. Why would I want to cover my face?' she told Vogue. 'But Demna [Gvasalia, Balenciaga's creative director] and the team were like, "This is a costume gala. This is not a Vanity Fair party where everyone looks beautiful. There's a theme and you have to wear the mask. That is the look."' 2022 - JEAN-LOUIS Kim stunned fans when she wore an iconic Marilyn Monroe dress — the same one the movie star wore in 1962 when she wished President John F. Kennedy a happy birthday at Madison Square Garden. The star lost 16 lbs. within three weeks to fit into the dress that she had borrowed from Ripley's. Her blonde hair was slicked back and she added a white fur jacket. And there was another accessory: her boyfriend at the time, SNL star Pete Davidson. 'To me it was like, "OK, Christian Bale can do it for a movie role and that is acceptable,"' she later explained to The New York Times. 'Even Renée Zellweger gained weight for a role. It's all the same to me.' 2023 Kim wore a Schiaparelli Haute Couture look in 2023. The theme was Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty. The SKIMS SWIM founder had on a skirt and top that included over 50,000 freshwater pearls and over 16,000 crystals. There was also a molded corset made from satin. 2024 Kardashian showed up to the steps of the Met in a Maison Margiela Artisanal outfit designed by John Galliano. There was a silver gown with a gray cardigan. Kardashian told Vogue that her look was meant to evoke 'the wildest night of [her] life in a garden.' 2025 Kim had on a black leather dress with a hat that fit with the theme of the year: Superfine: Tailoring Black Style. The gown, which was plunging and had a long train, was by Chrome Hearts. She added layers of diamond necklaces and added matching earrings with a side belt.
