BEST BOB
Sure, cutting it off can have disastrous effects — see Keri Russell, circa second-season Felicity — but chopping her locks was just the bold move Rihanna needed to match her confident, sexy sound. Her kindest cut — which the singer debuted in March and revisited in various permutations throughout the year (including this edgy, banged version in summer) — made Rihanna just one of many bob stars, including Victoria Beckham, Katie Holmes, Hilary Swank, Christina Applegate, and Christina Ricci. Britney's shorn head notwithstanding, clearly hair was the accessory of 2007.
