Actress Ellen Barkin has always been unapologetically authentic. The Ocean’s 13 star, 71, is being celebrated by fans for her “gorgeous” appearance after being spotted walking her dog in New York City. The Animal Kingdom actress, known for her outspoken and fearless persona, sported a casual look—jeans, sneakers, and a white blouse—while out and about with her beloved pooch. But it’s her hair that has fans talking.

Barkin’s once-infamous golden blonde locks are now cut into a chic, ear-length bob and dyed a more natural shade, a shift from the platinum hue she sported in her breakout roles in classics like Sea of Love alongside Al Pacino.
In a video shared to social media of Barkin’s stylish dog walk, fans flooded the comments with praise for the 71-year-old actress.
