Rapper Future Hendrix cut off his dreadlocks for his appearance at the 2025 Met Gala on Monday in New York City.
Future showed off his new, short blond haircut as he left The Mark Hotel heading to the Met Gala on Monday evening.
He wore a Pharrell Williams-designed Louis Vuitton grey and red outfit with embroidered crystals, pearls and beads in keeping with the gala’s “dandyism” theme.

The rapper’s fans say he is entering his “Soft guy era” – a reaction to the “soft girl era” trend that was popularized by young black women in 2023. The trend is also known as the “Soft boy era.”
A Soft guy is a sensitive, intellectual man who exudes charm and sex appeal, but he remains non-committal to women in his life.
Future’s new haircut got mixed reviews on X. One fan wrote: “Wanda Sykes cut is crazy.” Another fan wrote: “I love how Lori Harvey ruined these men.
Future and Steve Harvey’s stepdaughter, Lori, dated briefly. The father-of-8 tried but he failed to get Lori pregnant with his 9th child.
The rapper dissed Lori in his 2021 track “Tell Steve Harvey I Don’t Want Her.” They broke up after she caught him cheating while they were on COVID lockdown in 2020.
Other celebrities dressed in Louis Vuitton at the Met Gala included Louis Vuitton’s men’s creative director Pharrell Williams and his wife Helen, pop singer Sabrina Carpenter, rapper Pusha T, Denzel’s son Malcolm Washington, singer Doechii (below) and more.
