Bald Celebrities: The Bald and the Beautiful

Bruce Willis

When his hairline began receding, the 'Live Free or Die Hard' star manned up, yelled "Yippee-kay-yay motherf**er!" and Bic'ed his head.

Demi Moore

Not to be outdone by her former hubby (that'd be Willis), Demi took clippers to her coiffure to play a badass Navy SEAL in training in 'G.I. Jane.'

Matthew McConaughey

Matt ditched his normally long locks to play a badass dragon hunter in the post-apocalyptic action-adventure 'Reign of Fire.'

Jack Nicholson

The chrome-domed look Jack unveiled at the Oscars wasn't a preemptive strike against thinning hair; he'll play a dying man in 'The Bucket List.'

Cate Blanchett

She lopped off her locks to play a fugitive from the law in 2002's 'Heaven' -- and still managed to look heavenly.

Jeff Bridges

'The Big Lebowski' star ditched his Duderific hair to play badass baldie Obadiah Stane in the upcoming 'Iron Man' movie.

Arnold Vosloo

He went bald and villainous for his two best known roles: the eponymous baddie in 'Mummy' and terrorist Habib Marwan on TV's '24.'

Natalie Portman

She famously had her head shaved on-screen for her role as a freedom fighter in a futuristic -- and effed up -- Britain in 'V for Vendetta.' The results were killer.

Sigourney Weaver

Believe it or not, her Lt. Ripley was the original badass chick with a bald noggin in the David-Fincher directed stinker 'Alien 3.' Please don't hurt us, Ripley.

Denzel Washington

Denzel rushed to the barber and subsequently to the podium at the Oscars (he won Best Supporting Actor) for his role in the Civil War drama 'Glory.'

Robin Tunney

The bewitching star of 'The Craft' shaved her head on-screen (in the bathroom of a record store!) for her role as a semi-suicidal indie chick in 'Empire Records.'

Samantha Morton

The 'In America' Oscar nominee went hairless as a water-logged "Pre-Cog" (anti-crime psychic) in the Tom Cruise sci-fi thriller 'Minority Report.'

Michael Rosenbaum

He sports a smooth scalp as a young Lex Luthor on TV's 'Smallville,' but he kicks it new school (with hair) in the comedy 'Kickin' It Old Skool.'

Kevin Spacey

Spacey balded up to play an older version of Rosenbaum's bread and butter: Man-of-Steel nemesis Lex Luthor, in last year's 'Superman Returns.'

Rodgrigo Santoro

The man formerly known as Paulo on 'Lost' (yeah, he bit it) shaved his entire body to play the evil (and slightly homoerotic) Persian god-king Xerxes in '300.'

Luke Wilson

He gave himself an impromptu haircut in a pivotal scene from Wes Anderson's ode to the bittersweet beauty of familial dysfunction, 'Royal Tenenbaums.'

Cuba Gooding Jr.

Cuba went cranially aerodynamic as fleet-footed, motor-mouthed pro football player Rod Tidwell in 'Jerry Maguire.' Lucky for him, Tom Cruise LOVES bald people!

Hugh Jackman

He ditched his out-of-control Wolverine 'do for a futuristic hairless look in Darren Aronofsky's trippy time-bending love story 'The Fountain.'

Live and Let 'Die Hard'

All About Live Free or Die Hard
