Beyonce has got a strange new haircut and Twitter's gone into meltdown.
The singing superstar was pictured as she caught a flight out of Paris on Tuesday, showcasing the strange haircut.
Her long blonde hair was styled around her shoulders with a slight wave, so far all things appeared suitably coiffed.
However, it was her particularly short fringe or "bangs" as they're called in the US that caught people's attention.
"Ya seen Beyonce new bangs?! Shorter than my temper..." one @IAmNiaRich tweeted.
"This is a both hard & emotional time for the Beyhive. Please respect our privacy at these difficult times & please pray for Beyonce's bangs," @Dannyonce tweeted.
Some suggested the short, and slightly askew, fringe may have been the handiwork of her two-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy.
"Okay... Beyoncé's bangs look like Blue Ivy cut them for her," wrote one fan.
But the scariest - literally - description of her new 'do came from people comparing it to the haircut on the doll in the latest horror film, Annabelle.
The scary movie - which has been pulled from many cinemas in France after after hordes of overexcited teens swarmed movie houses - is about a vintage doll which haunts a couple.
The doll in question, Annabelle, has long blonde hair with a short fringe.
"Beyonce bang really does look exactly like Annabelle's lmao I'm in tearsss " @queenJada- tweeted, just one of many who made the horror-film comparison.
Others even posted comparison pictures of Beyonce with her new hair cut, side-by-side with the scary doll. Who knew an exposed forehead could cause such a stir?
