Shakira hit the stage at last night's MTV Europe Music Awards ready to rock out.

How do we know?

She wore dreadlocks.

The fiesty she-wolf posed on the red carpet with her hair slicked back into a super-sleek, super-long ponytail.

But when it came time for her to perform, Shakira had something else in store for her fans.

The pop star emerged in a jeweled, cutout mini dress that reminded us of a funky Cleopatra throwback. She swapped her ponytail for a half-back hairstyle that had sections twisted into dreads.

The look gave Shakira an edgy, don't-mess-with-me vibe on stage.

The star's lengthy 'locks dropped to hip level -- perhaps a subtle reminder that those famous hips do not, in fact, lie?

I think dreadlocks are "dreadful," no matter who's wearing them. They just look like dirty ropes of hair. Disgusting. This look does nothing for her or for anyone else, in my opinion.
