All the Celebrity Bob Haircuts of 2024
Is 2024 the year of celebrity bob haircuts? Judging by the red carpets, award shows, and fashion events we’ve seen so far, it certainly seems so.
Bob haircuts have already dominated the Golden Globes and Emmys red carpets, and J.Lo and Rihanna debuted especially chic, and somehow wildly different, chops while in Paris for Haute Couture Week. And now that Megan Fox and Kim Kardashian both chopped off their hair and dyed their bobs bright shades of pastel, it’s clear that while many hair trends come and go, the bob haircut—and countless varieties of it—will never go out of style.
As for why that is? Well, going chin length makes an immediate statement, grabbing attention and putting focus on your face. Shorter haircuts are also significantly less high-maintenance over all. But best of all? Bobs are extremely versatile. From the undone bob to the lob to the princess bob, there is no one way, no “right” way, to wear a bob. Just take it from the handful of celebrities boarding the bob train this year.
No matter your bob preference, the best celebrity bob haircuts of 2024 are sure to inspire your next chop. Ahead, see all of our favorite bobs of the year, and get ready to screenshot for inspo.

Perry shared a behind-the-scenes Instagram reel of celebrity hairstylist Jesus Guerrero chopping her hair into a bob, asking followers if they had any “thoughts, comments, concerns?” Our answer? Nope, not one!
Within a few hours, the “E.T.” singer shared actual pictures of her edgy, side-parted chopped bob to her grid. The photos, which seem to have been taken backstage on the set of American Idol, shows Perry drinking Coca-Cola out of a can with a straw. Relatable!
