Lisa Rinna Is Unrecognizable With Curly Blonde Hair Transformation

by

Lisa Rinna is owning it again—and this time it’s another surprising red carpet look.

Oh my god, you will NOT believe what happened! Lisa Rinna, my queen, completely transformed! She always has that amazing flipped brown bob, right? But she debuted a totally new look at the premiere of Stop! That! Train! – a full-on curly blonde pixie cut! And get this, the movie stars RuPaul and a bunch of other queens from Drag Race! I nearly died, it was everything!

The 62-year-old described her new and unusual hairstyle as a “Derby debutante” look in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. She explained they were aiming for a style inspired by both Madonna and Doja Cat.

Rinna styled her hair in classic Shirley Temple curls and wore a light blue dress with a full, ruffled skirt and a large ribbon at the event. The actress makes a brief appearance as herself in the Adam Shankman-directed film, alongside stars like Sarah Michelle Gellar, Joel McHale, Rachel Bloom, Nicole Richie, and Raven-Symoné.

Rinna was inspired to create her dramatic and unusual look by the celebrity drag queens in the satirical movie, including stars like Jujubee, Latrice Royale, and Monét X Change.

Rinna wondered how to make an entrance at a movie premiere packed with drag queens, and what outfit would be appropriate. She realized she needed to be bold and just go for it.

This isn’t the first time Lisa Rinna has turned heads with blonde hair at a major event. She previously rocked a platinum, voluminous hairstyle – complete with bleached eyebrows – at the 2025 Fashion Awards in London. And in 2024, she sported a spiky blonde bob at Paris Fashion Week.

Lisa Rinna told TopMob News in February 2025 that she uses wigs as a creative outlet because she doesn’t get enough acting roles. She explained that working with wigs allows her to constantly express herself and be creative, something she wouldn’t be able to do as often if she relied solely on acting jobs. It even makes her emotional to realize she has this outlet, as opportunities to create through acting are limited.
