Bella Hadid has left her fans speechless after she recently posted a new video channeling her inner Marilyn Monroe.

On Tuesday, the 26-year-old Palestinian-Dutch model unveiled a stunning new platinum blonde hairstyle, which her 57 million Instagram followers branded an ode to pop culture icon, Marilyn Monroe.

Hadid posted a short clip of her spraying hair mist on her new blonde locks, before turning to the camera and asking: "What do you think?"

And understandably, everyone was obsessed.

Comments poured in, with many comparing her new look to that of Monroe.

"Monroe in 2024," exclaimed former Disney actor Moises Arias.

"Bella Monroe ??? [It's] so cute," added another.

"I just fell to my knees at Walmart," this user admitted.

And this one described Hadid as "so pretty it hurts."

Bella's hair was coiffed in the style of the movie siren's short, platinum blonde curls, which were packed tightly to her head.

She did not reveal whether she had undergone a bleach job or was using a wig to make the dramatic transformation, or what the look was in aid of.

The model's father, Mohamed Hadid also praised his daughter in the comment section stating: "You are beautiful. And they are dying of envy."

He's not wrong there.

The statement look comes courtesy of Sam McKnight, a celebrity hairstylist who frequently works with notable public figures including the likes of Bollywood-turned-Hollywood princess, Priyanka Chopra as well as 'Only Love Can Hurt Like This' singer Paloma Faith.

As per E! News, this isn't the first time we've seen Hadid rocking the blonde vibe, as according to McKnight's official Instagram account, the model actually transformed into a blonde baddie in December as part of Chaos' 69 Poster Book.

While she did have blonde locks for some of the pictures, we also saw her donning a classic sleek black bob cut on the cover, really honing in on that 1920s flapper look.

In that same month, Hadid also rocked a honey-blonde look, posting that she was "Feeling a little better & a little blonder" to her Instagram Stories.

A few days on, she doubled down on the look, posting a captionless selfie to her Instagram feed which gave fans a better look at her new hair.

"And it's just like honeeyyyy," commented Jonathan Van Ness, referencing Mariah Carey's classic song 'Honey'.

Either way, it seems as though Hadid has been experimenting with her hair color and we're hoping the revelations are teasers leading to a new project.

We'll just have to wait and see!
