Revisiting her Tom Cruise days?! Not so fast. Katie Holmes tricked her fans into thinking she chopped off her hair for the 2015 Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute benefit, aka the Met Gala, on Monday, May 4. But turns out, it was just a wig.

The Woman In Gold actress, 36, teased fans on Instagram prior the A-list event. “Upside down about my hair for #metball @zac_posen @djquintero,” Cruise’s ex-wife captioned a wild photo of herself in a headstand while seemingly getting her hair cut. “Dare me….. #metball @alternahaircare @olay @zac_posen @djquintero,” she added alongside another close-up photo of scissors near her wet locks.

Keeping to the theme of “China: Through the Looking Glass,” Holmes’ dress featured an “auspicious cloud” embroidery, which was shaped like a ruyi sceptre and means “as you wish” in Chinese.
