At the Gotham Awards in New York City on Monday night, Jared Leto hit the red carpet, struck a pose … and then removed his glasses to unveil a hair-raising new look: He waxed off his eyebrows!
I know, I know he went from hot sauce to winner of the freak of the week award once again!
However this time it isn't one of his fucked up fashion choices. Thank goodness he's back in movies and this transformation was all part of a master plan.
The 30 Seconds to Mars rocker underwent the painful transformation for his role as an HIV-positive transvestite in the upcoming movie "The Dallas Buyers Club," which also stars Matthew McConaughey, who has plummeted down to 143 pounds to play another HIV-positive character in the flick. Crazy!
On the set as Rayon. (PacificCoastNews.com)Leto, 40, has documented his transformation process for his Twitter followers and the images are not for the faint of heart.
In a series of photographs posted on November 14, he gave fans an up close look at how he prepped for the role of Rayon just before he shooting in New Orleans.
In one picture, Leto's right armpit is completely red after all the hair was waxed off, while in another an esthetician is seen plucking his eyebrows. But another shot he posted on Instagram is so gross, it should come with a warning: clumps of wax with Leto's eyebrows still perfectly intact. "Ladies, I feel your pain," he wrote. "What I have learned today: Beauty is pain. Wax on wax off."
