Michelle Monaghan is switching things up for summer, and honestly, it’s a vibe. After playing Jaclyn in White Lotus Season 3, she stepped into the blonde zone—and fans couldn’t get enough. Now, with warmer days ahead, she’s gone back to that soft, golden-blonde look. Not the overdone kind, but the kind that looks natural and easy, even if you’re just chilling at the beach.
She recently told People that she’s been "craving that change again.” You know how sometimes you just want to feel different without doing anything too crazy? That’s the energy here. Instead of going super bright, she’s going for a buttery blonde that doesn’t need a ton of upkeep. It’s more about feeling good and having fun with her style. And she’s doing it in the healthiest way possible.
Michelle is working with celeb stylist Harry Josh, and their focus is on keeping her hair strong and hydrated. They’re using bond builders, moisture-heavy products, and a cut that actually works with her natural curls. So yeah—it’s not just about the color, it’s about making it last and still feel like her.
She’s Not Just Changing Her Look—She’s Everywhere Right Now
Honestly, Michelle’s got a lot going on besides her hair. She’s starring with Robert De Niro in a new Netflix movie called The Whisper Man. It’s based on a bestselling thriller, and the cast is pretty stacked—Adam Scott, Owen Teague, and Michael Keaton are all in it. Filming started back in April in New York, so we might see it drop sometime soon.
And if you liked The Family Plan on Apple TV+, get ready—she’s back for the sequel with Mark Wahlberg and Kit Harington. Her character is caught in some wild situations again, and let’s just say it’s gonna be intense.
Outside of acting, she’s still active in the beauty world. Michelle just launched a skincare campaign with U Beauty called “Meet U in Your Moment.” She’s been real about her routine—talking about sun protection, shrinking pores, and how she keeps her skin fresh on the go. It’s refreshing to see a celeb actually talk about skincare in a way that feels relatable.
She’s Still Talking About White Lotus—And That Wild Fan Theory
Of course, her White Lotus role is still getting attention. In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Michelle said she was ready for the emotional depth of playing Jaclyn. The character went through a lot, and the season touched on messy friendships and toxic relationships. Some fans weren’t too happy with Jaclyn’s choices, but Michelle gets it. She said it surprised her how many people either defended or totally hated her character.
Oh, and about that crazy fan theory? Someone thought monkeys were involved in a murder on the show. Michelle laughed it off in an interview and said it was “hilarious, but definitely not true.” Still, she’s glad the show got people talking—and guessing.
