Sia is spotted looking glowy & beautiful WITHOUT her wig
We're all too used to seeing a huge black and white wig covering Sia's face, but for a trip to the airport, the award-winning artist let it all out... Where have you been hiding that pretty face, Sia?!
The Chandelier singer forwent her signature wig when she moved through LAX airport en route to check in.
The 41-year-old (yes, you read that right) looked fresh-faced and glowing, showing off her naturally blonde hair and dark roots, wearing a Kenzo tracksuit and white trainers.
The singer is visiting Dubai, where she’s headlining the Dubai World Cup.
