Em Rusciano left fans doing a double take as she stepped out sporting a strikingly different look on the red carpet for Six The Musical on Wednesday night.
The comedian, 45, has changed up her style many times throughout her career and once again showed off another dazzling look as she stormed the glitzy event.
She is best recognised with mainstream Australian audiences for her glossy slicked-back raven locks and her colourful and edgy sense of style.
But the former radio presenter showed off her new hairstyle this week as she sported a much choppier bob and let her fringe frame her features.
Sporting new bangs and a shiny teal outfit, Em was in jovial spirits as she posed up a storm with a group of bedazzled drag queens.
She made sure to turn heads in a cropped metallic jacket and fitted velvet leggings from Australian luxury fashion label Zhivago.
Em added a few extra inches to her frame with a pair of pink platform heels and toted her essentials in a statement gold handbag.
She added to her features with a dramatic make-up palette and accessorised with a pair of chunky gold earrings.

Em attended the premiere for the popular musical, based on the six wives of Henry VIII, with her lookalike teenage daughter Marchella, 21.
The singer also has two other children – Odette, 16, and Elio, four – who did not appear to be present.
She also made the time to pose and catch up with her friend and Heartbreak High actress Chloé Hayden, 27, on the red carpet.
Of her bold turquoise outfit, Em joked on Instagram: ‘I look like a witchy poo, which is not bad. Lighting is everything.’
The media personality also said the crowd at the Melbourne premiere gave her ‘a lot of love for the outfit’ as she posted a glowing review of the musical comedy.
‘It helps having a best mate who is a head designer at an internationally-renowned label,’ Em continued, giving her friend Lara Kovacevich a shout out.
‘Lara is based in Perth and she’s quietly stocked on Saks on Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom and Revolve. The Australian fashion industry have no idea that their most successful export is just quietly killing it in Perth. And I get sent boxes of clothing,’ she added.
‘I don’t get paid I just love her and she’s my best mate,’ the former radio star clarified while picking some stray gold tinsel out of her hot pink ‘feature bra’.

Em is currently touring Australia with her new live show Outgrown, which has sold out in almost all cities with the exception of Launceston and Hobart.
The mother-of-three has made a career out of being relatable, but has vowed to ‘unmask’ herself on her tour and candidly discuss issues including living with ADHD, autism and menopause, as well as raising her three neurodivergent children.
The comic recently joked that getting the triple diagnoses of ADHD, autism and early menopause later in life makes her an ‘overachiever’ as well as being ‘a total ego death’.
‘Everything I kind of believed about myself was scorched earth,’ she shared in an interview earlier this year as she kicked off her comedy tour.
‘Everything I thought about who I was, and why I was, was suddenly put into context. Stuff I’d developed shame around made sense.’
‘For me, the label was really important. I’m proud of being part of the disabled community,’ she added.
‘It shouldn’t be pot luck. We shouldn’t hope that we turn up to a doctor that believes us.’

During a recent stand-up show on her Outgrown tour, Em was praised by her fans after she stepped in to help a distressed woman in Thirroul, NSW.
At the gig last month, eyewitnesses reported that the podcaster stopped her performance after an audience member experienced a medical episode.
Em was seen racing down the aisle of the auditorium of the south coast theatre to comfort the stricken fan and calm onlookers.
‘I don’t shy away from the hard stuff because that’s where the magic is. That’s the real stuff of life and I enjoy getting under the hood of being human,’ she added.
Em is next taking her tour to Newcastle and Canberra, before wrapping up in Melbourne at the end of the month.
