Alicia Keys new fauxhawk: totally hardcore or copying Willow Smith?

Do you know it’s only been six weeks since Alicia Keys gave birth to her little baby boy ‘Gypt? It feels like forever ago. Anyway, Alicia walked the red carpet last night for the film Biutiful (the Javier Bardem film). Alicia decided to forgo her previous incarnation as Cleopatra Keys, and this time aim for the stars with a very high fauxhawk. I kind of like it… well, I prefer it to the Cleopatra look she was doing while pregnant, what with the excessive, cheap-looking face jewelry and headpieces.

You know who Alicia reminds me of in these photos, with this hair? Willow Smith. For real. This fauxhawk style was little Willow’s a few months ago, before Willow dropped it for something trendier. Haha, Alicia is copying style techniques from a kid.

    I used to think she was really pretty, but she has been looking bad lately.

    Yes, I know she just had a baby, but her face is strange looking.

  2. margie says:

    totally hardcore…how about totally stupid.

  3. Kaboom says:

    Looks like a chicken is roosting on her head.

  4. georgiagrl says:

    Strange looking?
    Her face has never looked better and I can’t stand her!!!

  5. Megan says:

    she looks like a cockatoo (sp) i liked her til she became a man stealer!

  6. gabs says:

    I like it better on Willow.

  7. Nina says:

    I like it from the side but straight on, it just looks weird.

  8. jen says:

    All that Aqua-Net isn’t good for the environment.

  9. sickofit says:

    well for once she looks ok. black suits her.

  10. anti says:

    In photo 2 she looks like the disgruntled department store Santa’s helper lady elf in “A Christmas Story”.

  11. Amanda says:

    She’s too old for this hairstyle.

  12. mln76 says:

    The hairstyle is lame but she looks great and seems to have completely lost the baby weight.

  13. mln76 says:

    The hairstyle is lame but she looks great and seems to have lost alot of the baby weight or hidden it very well.

  14. LindyLou says:

    She looks tired to me. Maybe she doesn’t have nannies to help with the baby? Strange for a celeb.

  15. Reasonable says:

    @ Devilgirl – totally agree!!! Her face has always been strange looking – people just never openly commented on it. She is not a pretty person at all!

  16. serena says:

    She’s a naturally beautiful woman. But she kept choosing horribile dress and ends up doing something weird to her hair. Also, a bit of make up?

  17. InVain says:

    The “nude” makeup look doesn’t do her any justice…not that she has to look fake-up’d either…but with the all black, she could have gone for a little more color on the eyes. The hair is just plain stupid…maybe a 9 year old can pull it off..but come on Alicia..that’s a no for you.

  18. original kate says:

    her hair usually looks bad. i think she would rock a short cut.

  19. francesca says:

    She really does have bad skin.

  20. craigc says:

    PLease give me attention!!!
    Please! please! please!!
    Look at my fauxhawk!!

  21. Roxanne75 says:

    stupid

  22. chickieboo says:

    alecia is a pretty girl. she probably looks strange to some people because she is slightly cross eyed

  23. luls says:

    lol…. this is actually VERY similar to the Cleopatra thing she was doing before, both styles involve something stupid-looking dangling over her forehead!

  24. HakuraChii says:

    There is something a little off about this look, to me. I mean, the hair is *totally* like Willow’s, but she can’t pull it off as well. I think she needs a style that frames her face… Softens it.

    I don’t like the neckline of the dress… It looks sort constricting and uncomfortable. I don’t think the shape was doing anything for her body lines, just made her look wider than she was tall. She’s such a beautiful unique looking woman, she just style- ‘misses’ more than she ‘hits’, in my opinion.

  25. Missfit says:

    Actually Gwen Stefani has done this hair do and many other funky ones…way before Alicia and Willow herself. I actually think she’s a very pretty person…she just needs a bit more color in her face. She can always look worse, like Xtina. :/

  26. Trippin says:

    I still miss her pretty face pre-surgery.

  27. Bitter fruit says:

    When did she get so smarmy?

  28. Liana says:

    not hardcore, just dumb.

  29. DSM says:

    Ya know what they say about dogs and people. When they start spending alot of time together, they start looking like each other. In Alicia’s case she is starting too look more and more like “Squidward” a.k.a. “Swizz Beatz” ooouch!

  30. Seri says:

    She looks so beyond amazing for having just given birth a month ago! I mean, overlooking all the other personal stuff in her life, she really actually DOES look great!! Hope in the future I look that fantastic 6 weeks after giving birth.
