Valerie Bertinelli perhaps proved the old saying that blondes have more fun, at least when they fool people.

The former Food Network and “One Day At A Time” star debuted a striking blonde hairstyle on Instagram on Monday, writing “New hair, who is it?”

But just below he added: “(it’s a wig).” And a very convincing one.

The “Hot in Cleveland” alum pulled back the curtain on her ruse in an Instagram Story.

“So yeah, it’s a wig. And I have no idea how to take it off,” she said as she struggled to remove the hairpiece. It is said that it is for a role.

Bertinelli has almost finished removing the hairpiece.
