Aug 3 2007Mena Suvari shaves her head
Mena Suvari, the cheerleader from American Beauty, was spotted having lunch at the Newsroom Restaurant in Beverly Hills looking like she took a lesson from the Britney Spears Guide To Being Ugly. It's not even that her shaved head looks terrible on her, it just doesn't make any sense. She's capable of looking perfectly lovely so why do it? It's like drawing on a fake mustache with a giant marker. Only less hilarious and not nearly as classy.

Oh FUCK! NOT AGAIN! YOU BASTARDS!!!

She's got that Alicia Silverstone fetus mole on her forehead, the shaving just makes it jump out at you even more.
7. elisbeth.hauss - August 3, 2007 4:46 PM
Just me. Greetings from Germany.
I had breast cancer and the same kinda hairstyle.
It was great, looked great with some clothes, but looked like shit with dresses...
Why the fuck do people do that, when the dont have 2???
Silly peace of shit. Who`s she anyway? Never heard of that bitch.
I just dont get it.
8. KatLady - August 3, 2007 4:46 PM
Bravo for her! Whatever her motives, she's carrying it off with dignity and class! It looks just fine.
Remember, perhaps this is a personal thing for her... maybe she's supporting a close friend or relative who has cancer, and lost their hair... don't assume it's some publicity stunt like Britney pulled.
Mena's a beautiful woman.
9. Lovely - August 3, 2007 4:47 PM
I bet he's got a big dick...
10. ali - August 3, 2007 4:48 PM
she wants to be shanade o'connor. not britney. britney shaved her head so they couldn't hair drug test her and steal her babies. the difference between these two lies in the white trash aspect. thats a key factor here.
11. dez - August 3, 2007 4:49 PM
perhaps it's for a movie role? otherwise, i think she's pulling it off just fine...
12. adeliza - August 3, 2007 4:50 PM
Who's the K-Fed wanna be in the red jack ass pants?
13. whatever - August 3, 2007 4:50 PM
What is it with women today and big glasses? I hate the fucking things. It looks like NASA installed solar panels on her face. How the fuck did this become the style?
14. Katy - August 3, 2007 4:51 PM
Why should this surprise anybody? She's always been a weirdo.
15. beyonduplication - August 3, 2007 4:52 PM
@ 13 i don't know how it became the style, but they sure seem more effective than smaller sunglasses. better this than some of the completely useless trends (like pink hair and bad liposuction....)
16. ali - August 3, 2007 4:52 PM
excuse me, sinead oconnor*
17. adeliza - August 3, 2007 4:53 PM
#7....
the movie American Beauty is her claim to fame. Kevin Spacey was in it along with Annette Benning.
The poster for the movie was famous because this girl was probablly only 13 or 14 at the time and she was lying on a bed naked with red rose petals strategically placed over her "privates"...
She's done nothing since that I know of.
You aren't missing much......
18. RattInnaCage - August 3, 2007 5:03 PM
I thought I'd look her up in Google to see if there was a reason for the Marine corp high and tight do. Didn't find anything, but did find this little nugget of information:
Her current "relationship"
Mike 'Murda' Carrasco (professional breakdancer from Las Vegas, member of Knuckle Head Zoo; met in October 2005 in Braunschweig, Germany).
Maybe that's the fine lookin' dude with her, and do people actually make money as a "professional" breakdancer? Now I gotta Google "Knuckle Head Zoo".

#3 @ kelly, those are definitely tom ford's: http://www.shoppingsolow.com/images/Jennifer%20Sunglasses.jpg
nice design :) should try them on at a boutique :)
20. wedgeone - August 3, 2007 5:10 PM
Wasn't she in American Pie also?
A while back Fish posted pics of her sunbathing topless. She has some of the teeniest ta-ta's of anyone in Hollywood.
21. jack - August 3, 2007 5:12 PM
She shaved her head for a movie. "Garden of Eden". It's based on a Hemingway book.
22. cspivey - August 3, 2007 5:14 PM
She was in American Beauty, the American Pie Series, Sugar and Spice, and Spun. Hair or no hair, she's hot.
23. lil princess - August 3, 2007 5:15 PM
the only problem i have with these pictures... is that they are wearing sweaters and its the middle of summer.. wtf?
but beisdes that... she is adorable! and i doubt it was for publicity. i agree with the KATLADY.
24. charm - August 3, 2007 5:22 PM
whatever the reason, she pulls it off better than brittany.
25. TAMTX - August 3, 2007 5:26 PM
she wasn't very pretty anyway. Now she just looks like a underage boy.
26. Maha - August 3, 2007 5:27 PM
I have breast cancer and I'm only 24 and chemo SUCKS and I'm going bald. why anyone would do it for fun (shave their head) is beyond me...
watching my beautifull hair fall apart was a mess....whatever she's doing it for I hope to god it's worth every penny!
I would say to you not to use the "guide to being ugly" because for some--like my case--you have to do it to beat cancer.. but then again this is the superficial and I would never want it to be politically correct.
rock on bitch
27. dawn - August 3, 2007 5:28 PM
I think she looks beautiful with her head shaved. Any woman who cn pill off shaved head and still look good truly is pretty.
28. you're soaking in it - August 3, 2007 5:31 PM
Suvari also had a recurring role as a faux artsy rebellious attention-seeking lesbian who dates the character Claire [played by Lauren Ambrose] in "Six Feet Under".
29. Chauncey Gardner - August 3, 2007 5:31 PM
Holy shit. I didn't think this crease could possibly get any uglier. And then this happens.
30. joflo - August 3, 2007 5:45 PM
i think it's an improvement and she looks really cute.
31. luv to you - August 3, 2007 5:48 PM
God bless you 26
32. Frick! - August 3, 2007 5:54 PM
She looks like a 15 year old dude. Sinead looked prettier bald than her; possibly even Britney did too. Anyways, I say it was all a ploy to get the paps to take her pics for attention. She sure could use some media attention, seeing as how she's basically completly fallen off the fricken fame map. Doubt it will get her anywhere though.
33. ph7 - August 3, 2007 6:00 PM
She was much hotter when she was jail bait. Now that she's of legal age, she's just another average cute chick. It was the taboo that made her hot....
34. FakePeopleSuck - August 3, 2007 6:03 PM
Ha this is funny my husband calls her.......................
"Forehead small teeth"
This makes that name even funnier!
She was always a little weird looking but now.......YIKES
35. ziggurat - August 3, 2007 6:24 PM
I shaved my hair off after BS did, and people thought I was a celebrity. I got celebrity attention at the supermarkets, in the mall--everywhere! If anyone wants to be an attention-whore, I heartily recommend it. Ironically, I shaved my hair off to look 'ugly' since I was sick of motley people hitting on me. I deserve rotten fruit, not cat-calls and stares. I subsequently learned that dressing in man-clothes and wearing a hat is a lot more effective for disappearing from the public eye. Glasses, hoodies, scarves, and head-raps (or capes) don't work. Celebs will never learn . . .
36. ziggurat - August 3, 2007 6:26 PM
Dude, summer is cold in LA in certain places. Sweater? hells yeah!
37. Lexoka - August 3, 2007 6:45 PM
That's just stupid. I simply don't understand... I mean from Britney it wasn't that surprising, nothing she does ever is, anymore. But Mena Suvari? Was she high or something?
38. Melladior - August 3, 2007 6:46 PM
#17-- Actually, she was 20 when American Beauty was filmed. The poster was famous, but not because she was underage.
39. shanipie - August 3, 2007 6:57 PM
w/e she totally pulls it off.
britney's head is a bad shape for it, but mena's looks good.
and atleast she's not being a pussy about it wearing god awful wigs and getting extensions done by Lakeeshia down the street.
40. #1hater - August 3, 2007 6:57 PM
jeeze...she looks just like crazy britney during her umbrella period.....
41. Guy - August 3, 2007 7:01 PM
Sexy, reminds me of tank girl.
42. KittyGoesAWOL - August 3, 2007 7:31 PM
I always thought that she would look HORRIBLE with a shaved head, but I'm pleasantly surprised! Not a bad look for her!
43. eXtasyStef - August 3, 2007 7:46 PM
I have to agree with the fangirls. While she's not as hot as she would be with hair, she actually can pull it off. More Sinead than Brit.
44. Albaham Rinkon - August 3, 2007 8:02 PM
Wondering whats she shavend first, tha twatt or tha head.
45. Josie - August 3, 2007 8:06 PM
#26, See #21.
I think she looks just fine.. ESPECIALLY when compared to BS. Of course anything would look fine next to shit, but I think she pulls it off well.
and a correction to the tummy on the poster thing...
"The hand and stomach on the film's poster do not belong to Mena Suvari, but are in fact those of actress/model Chloe Hunter." - imdb.com

46. JJ Girl - August 3, 2007 8:59 PM
What the fuck? Why does every stupid ass want to look like Sinead O'Connor?
47. mdiz - August 3, 2007 9:03 PM
Rumor has it she bats for the other team. Which honestly would describe the hair do.
48. listen - August 3, 2007 9:35 PM
Guess what? Not everything a person is about can be summed up by their looks. Maybe she's not trying to impress you?
49. MC - August 3, 2007 10:23 PM
mina suvari has the biggest forehead known to man. she isn't remotely attactive.
50. dbarnes961 - August 4, 2007 12:12 AM
She Looks Fantastic only a hot chick like Mena could pull this one off.
Remember it's not the face your fu#@ing it's the fu#@ your facing.
51. Jay - August 4, 2007 12:20 AM
After reading comment #26, I can't make a bad comment...Sincerely hope everything works out for you Maha.
52. TetterkeT - August 4, 2007 12:23 AM
I got news for you, Menu Suvari doesn't need any lessons on how to be ugly. Ol' fish eyes has been teaching that class for years.
53. Rimmy - August 4, 2007 12:25 AM
Mena Suvari's in her thirties.
54. Rimmy - August 4, 2007 12:29 AM
My bad, 28. Same diff.
55. Susan - August 4, 2007 1:13 AM
Hair can grow again. It can be short or long; it can be different colors and styles. But those are some seriously ugly sunglasses. If you're going to stick something like that on your face, it doesn't really seem to matter what you do with your hair. Because even WITH hair, she'd still look like a dork.
56. Duke Steele - August 4, 2007 1:28 AM
Without those sunglasses, she'll look more like a teletubbie than she ever did.
57. joe - August 4, 2007 1:31 AM
Mena looks hot. Her forehead looks normal. I thought it would be huge with no hair. Short hair looks good on her.
But most importantly. Why isn't she showing off that fine ass of hers?
We need more Suvari ass!
Less hair and less clothes.
That should be Mena Suvari's style.
58. Davis - August 4, 2007 1:47 AM
Hmmmm... maybe she's an actress. Perhaps some people shave heads for acting roles. CRAZY!!!
59. dataBody - August 4, 2007 2:00 AM
i totally dig girls with buzz cuts...anyways there's not only one hairstyle out there you stupid asses, don't fucking shit yourselves over something so trivial.
60. Marina - August 4, 2007 2:36 AM
I hated her hair before. The huge blunt fringe... she looked horrible.
Even this looks better. Not bad at all.
61. Mariliis - August 4, 2007 5:51 AM
Her father is from estonia and i'm also from estonia. anyway. i think she's a great actress and she pulls this haircut off. if she would be doing britney, she would be much worse and looked like a slut. but she doesn't and i the she is pretty in every way.
by the way, she was 20 in American Beauty. and she was also in a movie called Loser with Jason Biggs.
62. Kate - August 4, 2007 8:34 AM
I love it. Honestly. She looks cute.
63. sable - August 4, 2007 9:40 AM
awww, she looks like a cute little boy. in heels.
64. paco - August 4, 2007 10:01 AM
i think i read all of the comments here and only one of u, #58, reasoned that she may have done this for an acting role...congratulations dummies.
65. Ally - August 4, 2007 11:07 AM
17- the poster used a body double
before going bald, this girl had the UGLIEST hairstyle (the bangs made her look ridiculous) so I say this is an improvement
66. 123456 - August 4, 2007 12:54 PM
Does anyone know what kind of PURSE she's carrying?
Thx!
67. eXtasyStef - August 4, 2007 12:58 PM
Hey, she wants to go bishie, she can. One less thing to do in the shower.
68. Joe C - August 4, 2007 1:11 PM
She is not very attractive with hair, without it she is positively disgusting.
69. meh - August 4, 2007 1:47 PM
she used to be so pretty. i liked a few of her movies, but not because of her , mostly because there were other good actors in them. so sad.
70. HELP - August 4, 2007 2:11 PM
I always thought she was ugly...truly, I thought her face on the American Beauty poster was very ironic. Ugh.
And 26, I'm prayin for you. Hope you beat it and live a long, healthy life :)
71. Bling - August 4, 2007 2:37 PM
All I can say is...WTF?
72. Sheva - August 4, 2007 2:38 PM
She looks like a psychotic lesbian. And after seeing her breasts, she owes it to the public to retain some feminine hair.
Even Kevin Spacey wouldn't let her blow him now if she wore a US Navy or boy scout uniform.
After some chicks hit adolescence, it's all downhill. Okay, most chicks in the US who think being an adult means eating as much as Dad.
73. herbiefrog - August 4, 2007 2:48 PM
hey babe... : )
looks good... : ))
we love the saved look
[oops shaved] : )))
74. lindsay - August 4, 2007 3:27 PM
donno who she is but she looks a hell of a lot better than dumb ass brit, not many women can rock the bald or boy look and she does a pretty good job of it
75. Sauron - August 4, 2007 3:33 PM
Which tribe is this girl from?This could be Britney without wig.
76. Lowlands - August 4, 2007 3:39 PM
whoever this girl is,nice borrowed looks and items from Britney,Nicole and Paris (the glued cellphone).
77. mmmeh - August 4, 2007 4:00 PM
sunglasses are from the Tom Ford Eyewear collection, they are called the Whitney Sunglasses
78. jetta - August 4, 2007 4:31 PM
Not everyone can get aways with shaved heads ..
In this case she has a nice head here so it to me at least don'snt look bad I think its cute :D
I miss shaving my head but being I gained some weight it wouldn't look right on me now...darn :D
79. Susie - August 4, 2007 8:36 PM
That hairdo actually looks better than those hideous chili bowl bangs she likes to sport.
80. Vixen - August 4, 2007 9:27 PM
Her sunglasses are escada, someone above was wondering. Her head was shaved to avoid drug testing. I will keep most of the details to myself but she is not crazy or trying to be like britney.
81. Desiree - August 5, 2007 2:42 AM
I shaved my head when I was 17...I absolutely loved it. I had to wear a bit more makeup than usual. I don't see why all these breast cancer people are sensitive about this issue. You are not your hair. You are not your grande latte.
82. Me - August 5, 2007 9:25 AM
Looks fine, better than Spears' rat nest.
83. celebrity.web.net - August 5, 2007 11:45 AM
exactly, you are not your hair.
it grows back, not a big deal
84. Meh - August 5, 2007 1:26 PM
I usually think she looks like an alien from a planet far, far away . . . but this cut is actually cute as hell. Femininity is not defined solely by a hairstyle. She manages to look very pretty in spite of that haircut. (Unlike Britney, who just managed to look like a sweaty, enraged warthog.)
85. curlyfrie - August 5, 2007 2:53 PM
ok........ i defineyly dont get it why would a model shave her head she had a chance of looking real good and ruined it. i think she listened to britneys how to look ugly guide!!wow
86. Lauren - August 5, 2007 3:37 PM
Bitch looks hella dykish. I love it!
87. michelle. - August 5, 2007 5:52 PM
lol seriously has anyone saw pictures of her with hair?
It was always a mess (the style, not that it needed brushed or anything)
This is much MUCH better.
It's really cool actually. She looks really cute.
PS-
Any people talking about cancer need to shut the fuck up.
No one is disrespectful for cutting their hair because YOU like it long.
No one is REQUIRED TO HAVE HAIR, JUST BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE CAN'T.
That's like saying people are stupid or rude to ride a bike because you don't have legs and would give anything to be able to walk.
Shaving your head (women) is simply a hair style or a statement or a moment of madness, depending on the person.
88. Joanne. - August 5, 2007 8:06 PM
Uh, you all need to get a clue.
She is not "copying" britney. Loads of women have shaved their head before, hell, didn't Demi Whore and Natalie Can't Act Porkman shave their heads years ago?
It's pathetic when people say things like this. I wanted to shave my head next summer but I probably won't do it now because I know since Britney did it people will all just say I was "copying" her and it has become a joke. Idiots.
89. mari - August 5, 2007 8:22 PM
she looks like a fly with those sunglasses on..
90. crazy otto - August 5, 2007 10:05 PM
maybe some method acting tool............hahahahahahahahah icrack myself up
91. woodhorse - August 5, 2007 11:14 PM
Persis Khambata was stunningly beautiful as totally bald - not just buzzed. Demi Moore and Natallie Portman can pull off the buzzed look as well.
92. nuppy - August 6, 2007 1:30 AM
The descriptions written by this webmaster used to be witty and clever but now they are mostly bitter and sad.
93. Stacy - August 6, 2007 4:17 AM
Why is it so BAD for a chick to shave her head?
People then assume she's copying a dumb celebrity, suicidal or she's a lesbian. Get over yourselves, people! ESPECIALLY the people who say that they can't possibly comprehend that a woman would willingly shave their head.
Chicks with cancer: I'm sorry you miss your hair, I'll mail you some of my old hair for a wig. But don't sit their and use your illness to try and make other girls feel bad for shaving their locks.
-Straight, happy chick who flicks a Bic
94. sauvage - August 6, 2007 6:42 AM
She's an actress, remember? So maybe she shaved her head because a role required it?
95. Particleman - August 6, 2007 7:09 AM
Shave the cheerleader...shave the world!
96. theoriginalmilf - August 6, 2007 10:34 AM
She pulls off the shaved look a helluva lot better than Britney.
97. LayDeeBug - August 6, 2007 10:52 AM
Doesn't look bad to me. BUT, didn't she get photographed a coupla years ago getting all dykey with some chick?
Who knows, but now she has one less thing to worry about; hair.
98. Christ on a Crotch - August 6, 2007 10:54 AM
#10, ali, I tried to ignore it but please get with the program, it's "SINEAD" for christs sake.
99. deiner - August 6, 2007 2:36 PM
I think she looks cute. Much better than usual.
100. andreea - August 7, 2007 7:42 AM
@77 i agree, these must be TOM FORD. the only important thing in the post :-o
101. jilli - August 7, 2007 4:58 PM
It's for a movie adaptation of Ernest Hemingway's 'Garden of Eden'. She shaved it in June while filming in Spain.
102. Meg - August 8, 2007 3:06 PM
Guess what? Not everything a person is about can be summed up by their looks. Maybe she's not trying to impress you?
QUOTED FOR EMPHASIS.
I think she looks fucking amazing.
103. astella - August 9, 2007 1:01 AM
i dont get it either. why?
with all due respect, suvari looks PRETTY fab sportin a fuzzy hair, like natalie portman, which is way better than spears anytime!
spears can take lessons from her anyday abt being classy.
104. shygirl - August 11, 2007 5:18 PM
Looks like she's pullin a Brit, she's even got a dancer boyfriend Mike Murda from Knucklehead Zoo, Las Vegas. He's totally hot, check him out here:

105. edie - August 29, 2007 2:33 AM
She is crazy hot. with or without hair.
106. loveutoobitches - September 23, 2007 1:48 AM
i heard the reason she shaved her head was cus of a friend that had cancer - i think its kinda cool she did that
107. thedude - October 3, 2007 3:15 AM
i think that there is more to being female than being some hottie. has it ever occured to anyone that not every single female is trying to look like some hot beast?
108. paul - October 29, 2007 11:52 AM
Suvari was awesome in six feet unde,always hot.She looked great with long hair,not so good with bangs.She is cute wiith the crewcut,wish i could have been The barber.Anyone who tries to dictate what othe people should look like is an ashole.Haircuts are emporay nd can be a fun change or the daring.
