CHRIS ROCK'S DEVASTATED: Demi Moore says she will never cut her hair for a role like she did for 'G.I. Jane'
Demi Moore is quite sure she won't cut her hair ever again. Demi had famously shaved her head to play a Navy SEAL in Ridley Scott’s 1997 war drama 'G.I. Jane'.
Demi, while speaking to People, said she’d be “hard-pressed” to chop off her long tresses, if required, for a role like that today and would prefer a wig.

Demi has nothing left 'to prove'
The 'Indecent Proposal' actress said, “I think now that I’m older … I don’t have anything to prove. So if they really need my hair different, they can give me a wig,” adding that it’s “also not as clear how it would grow back!”
Demi believes she has done every experiment on her hair. She said, “I’ve done everything to my hair. I’ve shaved it. I’ve dyed it. I’ve had a bob. When I’m not working, I try to do as little to it as possible. It’s stressful even having someone touch it.”
Meanwhile, Demi is breaking beauty standards, opting to wear her hair down to her hips. Demi said, “I remember hearing someone say that when women get older, they shouldn’t have long hair. And something about that stuck with me."
Is it possible for Demi to keep hair short anytime in the future?
For her role in 'G.I. Jane', Demi did ace the buzzcut look, but the actresses is surely not doing it again. Demi said, “Like who says? It made me feel like, well, if it can grow and it’s not unhealthy, then why shouldn’t we? I’m not comfortable with rules that don’t seem to have any real meaning or justification.”
Demi's hair was at the forefront of her new campaign - Demi Moore x Andie swimwear collection, which comprises of bikinis and one-pieces. Demi is also raising her voice at assumptions regarding aging women's desires through the collection.
Demi is hoping for a change
Demi said that women “don’t want to look matronly or not feel sexy or desirable. That was really something in my own mind, which is changing this idea that we become less desirable as we get older.”
Looks like Demi is passing that same body positivity down to her daughters when the mother-of-three posed for a family-themed swimsuit shoot for Andie. Demi's daughters, Rumer, 33, Scout, 31, and Tallulah, 28, also joined their mother.
Demi was last seen in the pandemic-themed thriller produced by Michael Bay, 'Songbird', alongside Craig Robinson, Paul Walter Hauser and Peter Stormare. Demi played Piper Griffin, the matriarch of a powerful family "who will stop at nothing to protect her family and her way of life."
Demi also plays the titular role in Amazon's drama series 'Dirty Diana', which based on the podcast of the same name. Demi also serves as the producer with screenwriter Shana Feste.
