In a twist in the world of music and fashion, Ice Spice’s new hairstyle has become a hot topic of debate. According to the rapper’s hair stylist, Ice Spice’s new look was Princess Diana-inspired. Recall that for the longest time, the Bronx native rocked her signature ginger curls. However, Ice Spice recently shocked fans when she debuted a new hairdo while teasing her upcoming album Y2K! A video shared on the star’s TikTok page showed her sporting a voluminous bob and a slightly retro cut. In the video, Ice Spice sang along to her single, Phat Butt, which is also part of the Y2K! album.
Shortly after, the stylist behind the hairdo took to X to showcase Ice Spice’s new hairstyle. In the tweet, they revealed that Princess Diana inspired the voluminous bob. To buttress their point, the stylist put a picture of Ice Spice in the new look and Princess Diana side by side. Rightly said, both hairstyles were quite similar. “Reference was Princess Diana and she nailed it! She is really the modern Princess Diana,” the caption read. Unfortunately, the homage didn’t land as intended with many fans. Social media platforms quickly buzzed with reactions, with many fans disagreeing with the comparison.
“She is who? She’s a princess, yeah, but never in a million years could be a Diana,” one person wrote. Another person also commented, “Girl be serious Ice Spice not copying no damn Princess Diana.” The Neighborhood Talk also reposted the stylist’s tweet, and many more disagreed with her claims. “Now this is a stretch😂😂😂😂, it’s cute but not Princess Diana,” one fan shared. A second puzzled fan asked, “Why do yall keep calling her the modern Princess Diana. I’m not understanding😭.” Another Instagram user remarked, “Now we know damn well her hairstylist didn’t get this look from no damn Princess Diana. Let’s be real here.” Meanwhile, some fans compared Ice Spice to Nicki Minaj. They said Ice Spice’s new hairstyle was similar to a style Nicki Minaj rocked in the past.
