From Snooki to social media: The 2000s pouf hairstyle is back
Better grab your Bumpits.
Back in the 2000s, celebrities like Lauren Conrad, Lindsay Lohan, Hilary Duff and — most notably — “Jersey Shore” star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi popularized the pouf, a pinned-back bouffant that paired beautifully with everything from ponytails to long, loose locks.
Now, decades later, the voluminous look is roaring back into fashion, thanks in large part to social media stars who were in kindergarten the first time the trend took hold.
Take Addison Rae, the TikTok superstar born in 2000 — just four years before “Laguna Beach” premiered on MTV.
Rae recently called for the return of the throwback ‘do, showing off her own version (courtesy of stylist Kiley Fitzgerald) and writing, “Bring back poofs [sic]. Btw where’s my bump it [sic]?”
Fitzgerald tells Page Six Style that she and Addison “get nostalgic over old trends,” particularly the “fun and spunky” pouf.
The hair pro swapped Bumpits for Velcro rollers to create a “more mild, modern” version of the look, explaining of its renewed appeal, “Having height in the front of the hair gives something to the shape of our face.”
Not everyone was a fan of Rae’s decision to revive the style, however.
“WHAT IN THE SNOOKI IS GOING ON HERE?! NO! Absolutely not. We fought too hard to make this trend leave in the early 00s,” one follower wrote in the comments section of her clip.
“Ma’am I was made fun of of this style lol. Please no,” another wrote.
But while millennials might have pouf PTSD, Gen Z is clearly here for the pouf’s return.
“My mum used to do this hair style [sic] all the time, i think its [sic] cute,” one defender commented.
Anne Hathaway rocked a pouf of her own during last month’s Cannes Film Festival, hitting the red carpet with center-parted, half-up hairstyle topped with a mini beehive.
The “Devil Wears Prada” star’s hairstylist, Adir Abergel, told Harper’s Bazaar he “was inspired by the height of the 1960s and the effortlessness of the models during that era, like Jean Shrimpton, Veruschka, and the curtain bangs on Brigitte Bardot and Farrah Fawcett.” (So … not Snooki?)
For those inspired by the nostalgic Y2K style, Bumpits are still available online for the low price of $6.69 — and in a delightful twist, an old photo of Hathaway still features in the promotional materials for the product, proving she never gave up on the pouf.

Actress Anne Heche, known for her roles in such films as Donnie Brasco, Volcano and I Know What You Did Last Summer, was involved in a fiery car crash in the Mar Vista area of Los Angeles on Friday.
According to TMZ, Heche was driving a blue Mini Cooper and had first crashed into the garage of an apartment complex. Residents of the apartment complex tried to get her out of the vehicle but she backed up and sped off.
Footage of Heche speeding down the streets of her neighborhood had been obtained by TMZ as well as her initial encounter at the apartment complex.
In the first clip, you can hear her car crash towards the end. It has been reported that the actress crashed into someone’s home, causing her vehicle and the house to erupt into flames. Heche suffered severe burns and was resisting being taken away in a stretcher. You can also view footage of this via the TMZ article.
It has not been confirmed whether alcohol has been involved in the incident since her condition prevents doctors from performing any tests to determine if she was driving under the influence. She is currently intubated in the hospital but expected to live.

Stay CL4SSY, New York!
The state Department of Motor Vehicles nixed 3,752 requests for vanity license plates in the last three years because it deemed them too raunchy, radical or simply ridiculous.
New York’s personalized plates go for $60 initially, and then $31.25 annually for renewal. You can get any plate as long as no one else has it and it’s not offensive.
Odds are a request for a plate that marks a wedding anniversary or shows your allegiance to a team — like METS86 — will pass muster with the DMV gatekeepers.
Vulgarity won’t get you to first base.
So plates with the phrase LFGM — the acronym for Pete Alonso’s “Let’s F–king Go Mets” rallying cry — did not make the cut.
And you won’t see anyone driving around with the custom plates MILFDAD, AS5M4N and WLHUNG.
The DMV also put NICEBUNS, FATFANNY, GOTAPOOP and BENDOVER in the rear-view mirror.
One player unsuccessfully tried to score the plate YESDADDY, to no avail.
The DMV also shot down such dark requests as DEADGIRL, GENOC1DE, S8TAN, DETONATE and MURDERM3.
Getting political is a dead end too — FJOEBIDN, FDTRUMP and CNNLIES were nixed.
LUDEDUDE, NARCO, GOT METH and BLUNT also went up in smoke.
Staten Island attorney Bill Dertinger said his blue 1995 Jaguar SJS was tagged with ESQLTD after his company and his 2014 Porsche had the plate GHOSTGTS because the sleek sportscar was white.
“The plates can make you stand out — which can be a curse or a blessing,” the 54-year-old Dertinger said. “Make sure you don’t cut anybody off.”
There must be a New York Jets fan playing referee at the DMV because a request for the seemingly innocent plate GASE was sidelined. Ex-Jets head coach Adam Gase had an offensive 9-23 win-loss record during his forgettable two-year tenure.
The DMV would not reveal who gives the final yea or nay.
“The DMV reviews all custom license plate requests and works hard to ensure that any combinations that may be considered objectionable are rejected,” said agency spokesman Tim O’Brien.
He said guidelines on what plate combinations are restricted can be found on the DMV website: https://dmv.ny.gov/learn-about-personalized-plates. Approximately 50,000 personalized and custom plates are sold per year, O’Brien said.
