Ana de Armas just debuted the trendy French bob haircut you've been seeing all over Instagram lately, and the style looks like it was made for her. The actor debuted her new look on Jan. 17 in a YouTube video posted on Limara Meneses's channel. In the clip, De Armas looks right at home in her new chin-grazing bob hairstyle and choppy bangs.

Having previously had a medium-length layered hairstyle, the short chop is no doubt a big change for de Armas, but it might be just what she needed after the tumultuous year we had. Over the last 12 months, many people have opted for a big change by the way of a new haircut, including celebrities like Demi Lovato with her pink pixie cut, Keke Palmer and her chic mullet, and Chrissy Teigen with the famous Rachel cut.

While many are speculating the cut was inspired by a recent (ahem, high-profile) breakup, there are plenty of reasons people might opt for a drastic hair change, from a major life change to boredom to a desire to take back control in one's life. (Things we've all experienced our fair share of in 2020.)

  • Vaccine site overrun after false rumors said all could come

    A Florida vaccination site had so few eligible takers Saturday that is started inoculating any adult who wanted a shot rather than let the vaccine on hand go to waste. Word spread and on Sunday the Florida City site was overwhelmed, particularly after local state Sen. Annette Taddeo incorrectly tweeted that the federally run site would again take all comers. Police had to calm the crowd Sunday when the site again enforced the state's eligibility rules: 65 and older; frontline medical workers and police officers, teachers and firefighters over 50; and younger people with a physician's note saying they would be endangered if they caught the virus.
