When Nelly Furtado initially traded her dark brown locks for this shade of blonde, I wasn't sure if it worked for her. But I decided that she has such beautiful features it's hard for her to look anything less than stunning. Here, her barely-there makeup makes her look young and clean, a stark contrast to some of the decade-younger pop stars who caked the makeup on for the Grammy awards. What do you think of Nelly's look? Did she play it too safe or just right?

I like her better with dark hair.
1She's only 29! She looks easily 40 with this hair/makeup/dress combo.
2She had naturally pretty olive skin why cake it with bronzer???
The blonde does nothing for her. The darker hair looked way better
3SOMEONE HELP HER!! There's a snake around her neck!!!
4She does look older and I loved the dark hair.
5Not her best look. Too much bronzer and the necklace thing us FUG.
6The blonde is completely unflattering on her.
The makeup and earrings are horrible too.
She's very pretty, but this look is all wrong.
7*is
8It doesn't even look like her! and not in a good way...
9Way too much bronzer!
10Yeah, I think a lighter hand on the bronzer would have been better, but then again, she's being photographed/videotaped, so sometimes you have to lay that stuff on thick. But if the bronzer were not so heavy, would you like this look?
11She looks old. Definetly get rid of the blnd hair.
12w/o bronzer? possibly, the blonde hair kinda kills it for me
13she looks awful, the hair is really unflattering
14i can't even understand how anyone thought this was flattering. she looks like the late-40s-ish, over-tanned, martini-sipping wife of a rich guy in miami. cannot. understand.
15Even with out the bronzer you still have that hair.... Ahhh....
16I like it,she looks very pretty.love the eyeshadow.
17i dont like her to begin with but the blonde hair is so very unflattering on her. she looks so much better as a brunette.
18Terrible hair color, terrible eyebrows, terrible lipstick, terrible bronzer, and terrible lip'pursing, just plain terrible.
19I just couldn't stop staring at her hairline - the color at the hairline is so odd.
20that is a bit more bronzer than she needed, but it complements her skin pretty well. i suppose she should still tap that brush a couple more times before applying, though.
and yeah... that necklace...? yuk.
21Her eyelashes look pretty... but I really really wish she had darker hair!!
22Bella you have got to be kidding about the caking it on part because that is exactly what this picture is an epitome of...caked on bronzer. Yes I would like this look if the bronzer was tamed down
23She looks weird to me. This hair color is just bad on her.
24The hair color makes her look common and cheap, like some producer's trophy wife. She was so much prettier and sexier with dark hair.
25She needs to change it back to the darker shade.
26her hair is too light for her skintone, her eyebrows are gray (Wtf!) and her necklace looks like a centipede...
27Oh wow I didn't even recognized her. She looks like she is 29 going on 40.
28She definitely looks way older with all that bronzer and such light hair. Girls with olive-toned skin are not meant to be blond. She is going to be on tv, but so are all the other women and their faces don't look overly bronzed like hers does. I was very surprised to see that Bella thought she looked good. I was definitely expecting a negative review.
29I'm surprised - I thought there was no way ANYONE could like this!! The hair colour looks terrible on her, her eyebrows look grey, her blush and contouring is way too harsh, and the lipstick looks bad on her!! There's pretty much NOTHING about this that looks good!
30The blonde hair looks HORRIBLE on her, and her eyebrows are gray. She needs to go darker, and fast.
31I didn't even recognizer her, definitely down with the brown!
32Not liking the dangly earrings with the choker necklace, wear one radical piece of jewelry at a time woman!!
33Why Nelly, why ???
Hate the hair, oh and that necklace and those earrings...
34She should never had dyed her hair blonde. It makes her less striking and more ordinary.
35JESUS CHRIST HOW MUCH BRONZER?!
36The hair color makes her look old. I think brunette is looks best on her.
37She definitely wears brunette way better!
38she looks so weird...not right for such a pretty girl
39No, definitely didn't like it. When she came on stage to present, I was all confused, like "what the heck did she do?!"
40I like the make-up actally. I think it's just the hair I have an issue with
41She has played into the Hollywood thing with the blonde hair. She was more exotic darker.
42I liked her so much more when she was a brunette. She's wearing a little bit too much bronzer. Also, I think she should have worn the earrings or the necklace, not both.
43She's monochromatic!
44She looked awful! With that terrible hair, which looked dirty, and that hideous dress...yick!
45I tried to look at her without all of the bronzer but it's just about impossible. had to choose a thumbs down for this. it looks like someone tossed her into a makeup cake.
46how is this barely there makeup bella??? and that hair - no no no!
47She looks SO much better as a brunette. I agree with sugarcupcake, she's monochromatic and that's never a good look.
48Is this Nelly or her mother? Jesus this is just awful!
49Gold face, gold hair, gold ugly necklace....
