ROSÉ ALL DAY

Brandy Looks Like a Pink-Haired Afrofuturistic Deity in Recent Instagram

This cotton-candy hue is perfection on the R&B singer.

Brandy got fans very excited about potential new music with her recent Instagram post on December 1. The image in question features Brandy looking like an android in pastel pink straight hair, bangs, and a gilded bodysuit.

At first glance, we too thought this photo was an album cover. But it turns out it's not an album cover — or a real photo. It's actually the work of graphic artist Ozriy, which explains why Brandy looks like she's from a completely different world. Ozriy gave the R&B icon straight, cotton-candy-colored hair, with wispy bangs slightly parted down the middle. Her dark roots transition into the gorgeous rosy color with most of the hair swept behind her shoulders.

The second image in the post features a slightly pulled-back shot of Brandy with her roots out of the frame and a better shot of the bangs. This time the fringe is chopped into a V-shape that descends right between her brows, giving them an almost extraterrestrial vibe that fits this afrofuturistic design.

It's honestly hard to believe this wasn't shot with a camera because it looks just like the R&B singer. Ozriy really nailed all the details of Brandy's face, including her gorgeous high cheekbones. Brandy seemed to agree because in her caption she thanked Ozriy for his amazing work and wrote, "they don't want me to go pink," with the hashtag #BlackBarbie.

Though she tends to experiment with her hairstyles, we don't usually see Brandy play with fun hair colors like pink or orange. Perhaps this simulation is giving the singer-songwriter some ideas for her 2023 look. If she needs a nudge, for the record —  we would 1000 percent love to see Brandy with very real pink hair.
