Susan Boyle shocked fans with her new ‘do while making a rare red carpet appearance in London.

The Scottish singer, 64, stepped out with a blond bob and blunt bangs when she attended the Pride of Britain Awards at the Grosvenor House Hotel on Monday.

Boyle’s stick-straight lighter locks marked a big change from the curly dark hair fans are used to seeing on her.

The “Britain’s Got Talent” star flashed a big smile while posing for pictures, wearing a glam fur shawl and a black-and-white long-sleeved dress. She accessorized with a pearl necklace, bracelets and a black clutch.

Although she didn’t end up winning and was the runner-up of the show’s third season, her debut album, “I Dreamed a Dream,” went on to become the best-selling international album of that year.

Boyle went back on the singing competition in June 2023 to sing the song that made her a household name with the West End cast of “Les Misérable,” and also revealed that she had a stroke a year prior that left her unable to talk or sing.

“This evening was even more special for me as in April of 2022 I had a stroke,” she wrote on Instagram after her performance. “For the past year I have worked so hard to get my speech and singing back, with the sole aim of being able to sing on stage again & tonight my hard work & perseverance paid off, singing the song that started it all, ‘I Dreamed A Dream.’
