When Omarion's new video dropped the other day, people hardly seemed to care that it was the song was more than a little reminiscent of Mario's "Break Up"—nope, they were too busy trying to figure out what was really happening with the back of dude's head. And it's official: there's an eyesore where his hair used to be (it's so cold, it's so cold, it's so cold...). Shag action + LA logo = brand-new candidate for worst R&B haircut of the year!

The thing is, O's bad idea isn't even a lock for the award. Nope, R&B dudes have spent the past couple of years steadily one-upping each other with horrible domes (ayo2K!). Don't believe us? Read on...then print it out, take it to the barber shop, and let 'em know: "ANYTHING but this."

OMARION BONUS!
Wait, we went to college with that dude. Last time we saw him, he was at a Palestinian Rights rally wearing motorcycle boots in 90-degree weather and gazing soulfully at chicks with leg hair.

QUE FROM DAY 26
What's so bad about a high, tight fade? What's that? It's not a fade? It just looks that way because the side of his head are dyed platinum blonde? Well, in that case, please shoot us in the head.
