Andy Cohen Mocks Tom Schwartz’s ‘Kate Gosselin-Inspired Haircut’: ‘What’s the Story Behind It?’
Andy Cohen hilariously critiques Tom Schwartz's bold hairstyle on 'Watch What Happens Live'
Prior to revealing his latest look, Tom Schwartz had Kate Gosselin on his mood board, as reported by Andy Cohen. During the November 28 episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, Cohen, 55, drew a comparison between Schwartz’s spiky hairstyle and Gosselin’s iconic gelled-up pixie cut.
Cohen playfully teased the 41-year-old Vanderpump Rules star, comparing her haircut to Kate Gosselin's iconic style while she burst into laughter. Schwartz denied any deliberate resemblance, but Gosselin proudly sported the look on her TLC show, Jon & Kate Plus 8, as she discussed the effort it took to maintain the signature hairstyle in a 2009 interview with People.
When Gosselin competed on Dancing With the Stars in March 2010, she did away with her previous hairstyle and revealed shoulder-length extensions. Since then, she has been seen with even longer hair while maintaining the bright blonde color.
Meanwhile, Schwartz has experienced several hair transformations. Before sporting his shaggy combover, the Bravo personality briefly flaunted a platinum blond mane. In August, Schwartz surprised Us by posing for a photo with a fan in Los Angeles, showcasing icy tresses.
On August 21, Schwartz revealed his new look by posting an Instagram carousel with friend Jo Wenberg at a hair salon. He captioned the post, "Give me the Draco Malfoy," referring to the bright blond hair of the Harry Potter character.

The notable transformation caught the attention of Schwartz’s former wife, Katie Maloney, who commented, “Oh boy,” in response. Fans promptly speculated whether Maloney’s reaction was in relation to Schwartz’s hair or the photos with Wenberg.

Maloney, aged 36, has openly expressed her aversion towards Wenberg, aged 35, following Schwartz's decision to live with the hairstylist during their divorce. (Maloney and Schwartz confirmed their separation in March 2022 after six years of marriage, with the proceedings being finalized later that year.)
Schwartz had previously made an exclusive statement to We in February, attempting to clarify his relationship status with Wenberg, stating, "We are not cohabiting and we are not in a romantic relationship, but she is someone whom I deeply appreciate and she is a genuinely great person, and we simply enjoy each other's company."
