Celebrity Trends That Make Us Cringe

However original we’d all like to proclaim ourselves to be, celebrities are definitely influential when it comes to deciding what’s trendy and what’s not. Since we are also so critical of everything that celebrities do (and wear), it’s a given that they will often have a few not-so-trendy mishaps. Here’s to all those moments where celebrities have made us go “oh noooo” instead of “oo-la la.”

Faux hair colors: First there was Pink, who sported neon pink tresses for quite some time after she first stepped onto the music scene. Because her hair color coincided with her name though, she gets a pass. What’s Rihanna‘s excuse? I’m willing to bet any amount of money that no redhead is truly that red.

Exotic Animal Ownership: So I know Michael Jackson was the proud owner of a few exotic animals that lived peacefully in the backyard of his amusement park — I mean home. But now that BeyoncĂ© is taking wild hyenas for a walk in her latest video “Girls Run The World,’ I’m starting to wonder, do I need to finally invest in that koala bear I’ve been eying for my Brooklyn apartment now? I sure hope not.

Bleached eyebrows: Lady Gaga’s face is missing something on Rolling Stone’s latest cover. What is it? Eyebrows would unfortunately be the correct answer. Okay so maybe she just bleached them. But there’s no way in hell I’d be willing to rock the Whoopi Goldberg-eque look of a browless face. Would you do it?

Camel Toe: Khloe Kardashian caused some instant eye covering and eyebrow raising recently when she was photographed wearing a stylish-yet-far-too-tight pair of red skinny jeans that revealed a detailed profile of her womanhood. Let us hope that the camel toe will forever be a no-no!

The list of celebrity trends we simply cannot stand goes on and on. Check out some more celebrity oh-no’s we hope will be short lived here.

    I naturally don't have much eyebrows… they're very, very blonde and sparse even though I have light brown/ dirty blonde hair and a LOT of it. Not sure why, I think it's genetic. I hopw it doesn't look THAT bad though…

    I'm blonde, and I also hardly have eyebrows…Maybelline ExpertWear blonde eyebrow pencils are a life saver! And if you put it on too dark, tissues do the trick. Really helps define your face :)
