Jared Leto goes platinum blond on the same day as Kim K

It's always a bit awks when someone turns up to a party wearing the same outfit as you, but Jared Leto and Kim Kardashian went one step further and debuted matching platinum blond hair at Paris Fashion Week.

In even more of a coincidence, they both wore velvet. Holy heavens above, how ever did they survive the indignity? The fashion gods will strike them down! Well, maybe not.

They handled the situation like pros, posing together with ice-cold glares and Kim's posse of husband Kanye West, sister Kendall Jenner and mum Kris Jenner. He fits right in, doesn't he?

While Kim's change is purely for style, Dallas Buyers Club Oscar winner Jared, 43, bleached his newly cropped hair to play The Joker in DC Comics' upcoming blockbuster Suicide Squad.

He's also shaved his beard, looking more like Tilda Swinton than a Mumford and Sons member. Others have compared his look to Karl Lagerfeld, which we'd have to agree with.

Check out Jared's looks below at the Balmain and Lanvin shows. Notice the label still on his jacket in the first photo? It happens to the best of us.
