“You Won’t Believe How This Pop Star Looks Now—All After Romance With Yellowstone’s Kevin Costner!”
She first captured hearts in the 1990s with hits like Who Will Save Your Soul and You Were Meant for Me, becoming one of the decade’s most beloved folk-pop icons.
Over the years, Jewel has stayed in the spotlight not just for her music, but also for her high-profile relationships—she was once married to rodeo champion Ty Murray and has recently been linked to Yellowstone star Kevin Costner.
This week, the 51-year-old singer stunned fans with a bold new transformation on Instagram.
Her signature blonde locks were gone, replaced by a soft red hue styled into a voluminous, fashion-forward look. She paired the dramatic hair with glowing peach-toned makeup that highlighted her cheekbones, giving her an elegant, refreshed glow.
Jewel was dressed to impress in a dazzling Schiaparelli outfit at a fashion event in France honoring designer Daniel Roseberry, creative director of the famed fashion house.
Born Jewel Kilcher in Utah, she’s a Grammy-nominated singer, actress, author, and mental health advocate. With over 30 million albums sold worldwide, her music continues to resonate across generations, with classics like Hands, Standing Still, Foolish Games, and Intuition.
Recently, Jewel has also drawn attention for her fit physique. In a social media post last month, she flaunted her toned frame in a black swimsuit, crediting weightlifting for her sculpted look. She was also noticeably slimmer at the high-profile wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez in Italy earlier this summer.
Jewel first broke onto the music scene in 1995 with her debut album Pieces of You, one of the best-selling debut albums of all time thanks to its raw lyrics and heartfelt melodies.
Romance rumors with Kevin Costner began swirling in late 2023 after the duo were spotted together at a charity tennis event on Necker Island. While speculation ran wild, Costner later clarified on The Howard Stern Show that their connection was platonic, praising Jewel’s intelligence and beauty. Jewel called him a “great person” but kept the details of their relationship private.
Earlier this year, she faced political controversy after performing Somewhere Over the Rainbow at Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Make America Healthy Again Inaugural Ball—an event criticized for Kennedy’s political affiliations, including his appointment by Donald Trump as Secretary of Health and Human Services.
In an Instagram video, Jewel explained her decision, citing her commitment to mental health advocacy:
“As many of you know, I’m a mental health advocate. Mental health affects everyone—across party lines. I chose to participate in hopes of shaping policy and raising awareness.”
She acknowledged that some fans were upset:
“I’m truly sorry if I caused anyone pain. But if I wait for perfect conditions or people I 100% agree with, I may never act. Activism isn’t about waiting—it’s about engaging, even when it’s uncomfortable.”
Jewel remains dedicated to advancing mental health resources and sparking conversation in America, proving that even decades into her career, she’s still making bold moves—both on and off the stage.
