Check out the most surprising celeb transformations of the week...

Katy Perry

This throwback look has us wide awake.

Perry brought back one of her signature styles from the mid-aughts, showing off brand-new baby bangs in a June 20 Instagram video. The American Idol judge's fresh fringe was swept to the side and complemented the rest of her loose, textured waves in the short clip, which featured Perry celebrating the anniversaries of her One of the Boys album (which turns 15 this month), the Prism album (turning 10 in October) and her chart-topping tune "Teenage Dream" (turning 13 this year).

Nina Dobrev

These bangs have fangs.

The Vampire Diaries alum switched up her signature long hair when she opted for a fringe, debuting her trendy new look in a June 28 Instagram post. "chop chop," Dobrev wrote along with the series of photos of her hairstylist Mark Townsend trimming her tresses.

Dobrev then showed off her fresh cut at the premiere of her Netflix movie The Out-Laws, captioning pictures from the event, "She's bangin'."

John Goodman

Having lost 200 pounds since beginning a health journey more than 15 years ago, The Conners star showed off his lifestyle transformation at the Monte Carlo TV Festival in Monaco June 18.

Goodman had previously reflected on his weight loss, explaining it was part of his process to live a healthier lifestyle that he began when he became sober in 2007.

"In the old days, I would take 3 months out, lose 60 or 70 pounds, and then reward myself with a six-pack or whatever and just go back to my old habits," the Roseanne alum told ABC in 2017. "This time I wanted to do it slowly. Move, exercise. I'm getting to the age where I can't afford to sit still anymore."

Chloe Grace Moretz

Now this look is kick-ass.

Moretz said goodbye to her long looks when she showed off a bob haircut at the New York City screening of her animated film Nimona on June 24.

Moretz's hairstylist Gregory Russell showed off the star's dramatic chop, cheekily writing in a June 22  Instagram, "chop chop" with two scissor emojis.

Maluma

Can someone pass the salt and pepper?

Maluma kicked off his silver fox era when he debuted a gray hairstyle at Paris Fashion Week June 22. The "Hawái" singer rocked voluminous, textured waves, with the front flipped up into curls that were dusted in silver while the rest of his strands featured his natural brunette roots.
