The Weeknd Announces New Album 'Starboy'

The Weeknd is preparing a new album, and rocking a new hairdo.

The Weeknd caused a bit of a stir this afternoon. Earlier today, Captain XO took to social media and dropped some pretty big news. After activating his Twitter fingers, Abel wonderfully announced his next album, Starboy. Fans may be familiar with the title, as it's been previously teased on his Instagram feed. But don't bother digging into his timeline, because the singer deleted all of his previous pics.

Perhaps the most noticeable (or noticeAbel) about the album artwork, is the confirmation of the singer's new haircut. After famously rocking his signature hairdo for years, The Weeknd is now opting for a new look. If you're still in denial, the Torontonian posted another picture on social media. It's a bummer, but at least we'll have the internet. Thanks for thememeories, dude.

There has yet to be a confirmed date for Starboy, but Abel teased a fall release in his captions. This would make sense, given that he's the "King Of The Fall". For more on Starboy, stay locked onto Complex CA.
