Emma Stone shocked fans when she debuted a pixie cut at the 2025 Golden Globes.
Stone, 36, stunned at the Sunday, January 5, awards show in a strapless red gown with a matching belt at the waist while rocking her new hairstyle. She walked the red carpet with her husband, Dave McCary. (Stone and McCary, 39, tied the knot in 2020 and welcomed daughter Louise the following year.)
To create the look, Stone collaborated with longtime stylist and OLAPLEX Global Ambassador Tracey Cunningham, who described the current cut as “like Mia Farrow.” Cunningham added in a statement to Us Weekly, “She basically has no hair. It’s super short, and she’s going to have it cut again, so it’ll be even shorter.” Cunningham noted that the color was “auburn, a smidge darker than her usual color. I call it ‘Nutmeg.’”

Fans previously speculated that Stone may have had a hair transformation when she attended the 2024 New York Film Festival in October 2024. In a clip shared via X, Stone could be seen adjusting what appeared to be a wig on her head after hugging Kieran Culkin’s wife, Jazz Charton.

“I’m so intrigued by why Emma Stone is wearing a wig at NYFF,” one user wrote via X.
The rumors were fueled the following day when photos began circulating online of Stone wearing a tight beanie — without her previous long locks visible — while in New York City on the set of Yorgos Lanthimos’ new movie, Bugonia.
The film, which stars Stone and Jesse Plemons, is a remake of the 2003 movie Save the Green Planet! Per The Hollywood Reporter, Bugonia “tells the story of two conspiracy theory-obsessed protagonists who kidnap a CEO of a major pharmaceutical company, convinced that he is an alien out to destroy the planet.” Bugonia is set to hit theaters in November 2025.
Stone has previously collaborated with Lanthimos in 2018’s The Favourite, 2023’s Poor Things and Kinds of Kindness, which was released in June 2024. While promoting Kinds of Kindness, Stone made headlines when she playfully corrected Lanthimos when he told a reporter she went by “Emma.”
Emma Stone Playfully Corrects Director on Using Her Real Name
Stone previously revealed that her name was Emily upon birth — but she changed it to Emma when she started acting because there was another Emily Stone working for SAG-AFTRA. Stone chose the name as a nod to Emma Bunton.
“Growing up, I was super blonde, and my real name is Emily, but I wanted to be called Emma because of Baby Spice and guess what? Now I am,” Stone previously said during a 2018 appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. “It wasn’t necessarily because of her but yes, in second grade, did I go up to the teacher on the first day and ask her to call me Emma? Yes, I did, and was it because of Emma Lee Bunton from the Spice Girls? Yes, it was.”
