See Sexy Throwback Photos of a Young Jennifer Tilly with a Blonde Pixie Cut
You'll never recognize The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills friend in these throwback photos.
Jennifer Tilly has sported many looks over the course of her decades-long acting career. But, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 14 friend sported one of her boldest looks in the mid-90s when she rocked a sassy, sexy, and super-short pixie cut.
Lucky for you, we have the photos to prove that Jennifer is definitely a risk-taker when it comes to her style.
Although she might be a brunette now, Jennifer was once a platinum blonde. The Chucky actress sported a bleach blonde pixie cut in 1996, two years after being nominated for an Academy Award, hitting the red carpet to show off the super fun look.

Jennifer continued to keep the pixie cut throughout 1996 and 1997 but opted for darker tresses and went brunette. She sported the look during an Oct. 1996 interview with Jay Leno and in a 1997 appearance with supermodel, Cindy Crawford, where she showed off the short haircut dyed brown.
Jennifer Tilly at the Liar, Liar Premiere
Jennifer even wore the pixie cut at the 1997 premiere of Liar, Liar in Los Angeles. In the photo, Jennifer can be seen posing on the red carpet with her hands up, showing off her super fabulous dress. In 2022, Jennifer took to X (formerly Twitter), where she reflected on her time working on Liar, Liar with actor, Jim Carrey. "Until I met Jim Carrey I had no idea there were so many different ways to do a take," she explained.
Jennifer Tilly talks about her sexy persona
Jennifer has had to embody so many personas over the years — from the murderous Tiffany in the Chucky series, to the talentless Olive Neal in Bullets Over Broadway. But early on, Jennifer adopted a "sex pot" persona. "We were all obsessed with Marilyn Monroe back then," she told Vulture in August 2024 of her breathy voice.
"I did start out doing the Marilyn Monroe thing and talking with a little voice — kind of spacey, kind of innocent. Because of that, I would say the biggest misconception, perpetuated by me, is that I was not very bright," she continued. "But I'm razor-sharp smart. I try not to do self-deprecating humor anymore. I don't think it's super appealing when you get older."
But, she does fully embrace this as Tiffany. "I love playing Tiffany because she's such a campy character," she told Us Weekly in October 2022. "She gets to kill people and looks sexy doing it."
Jennifer Tilly explains her "campy" sense of style
Jennifer loves to have fun with her style, and that is very clear from her amazing looks on RHOBH. "Life's too short to wear torn jeans and a white tee," she told Vogue on Dec. 17. "I'm kind of like a female drag queen — I love anything campy and over the top."
She takes pride in the fact that all of her outfits are original. "I don't have a stylist," she explained. "I have a very strong sense of what I like, and I have relationships with the designers. Even in the '90s, I would always go to photo sessions with a big suitcase of clothes; I didn't want to get stuck with what the stylist brought."
