Chris Messina hit the 2019 Golden Globes red carpet with a totally new hair color. The Mindy Project hunk stepped out with platinum blonde hair for the first time and social media users are split on the look.
The surprising change in appearance is likely for his latest role as villain Victor Zsaszin in DC film’s Bird of Prey. The film, which is set to premier in 2020, will follow the story of Harley Quinn. And the difference from his usual brunette hair hue is dramatic!
As this comes as a total shock for insiders and fans alike, people on Twitter are having very strong – and hilarious – reactions to his brand new look. And not all of them are into it. “Y’all need to get it together Re: Chris Messina,” wrote one Twitter user. Another wrote, “I’m sure this is for a role but also OHMYGOD CHRIS MESSINA NO.”
However, other fans think the blonde locks propel him into a whole new level of hotness.
“Chris Messina being just as hot as a blonde confirms that he should be included in the list of hot Chrises in Hollywood. In this Ted Talk, I will,” Tweeted one person. Another wrote something that a lot of people agreed on: “Blond Chris Messina could get IT.”
Then there were others who just had some… thoughts. “Chris Messina looking like all of the gays I unfollowed on Instagram last year,” Tweeted one person, while another wrote, “blonde Chris Messina looks like a music producer you’ve never heard of who somehow has 14 Grammys.”
