Charles is undoubtedly one of the biggest stars on the internet today, and he\u2019s no stranger to pulling a fast one on his followers, but one of his most recent attempts definitely didn\u2019t go according to plan. On February 16, the star posted a pic of himself doing his regular James Charles thing, but completely and utterly bald-headed \u2014 it would have been one of the biggest surprises of the year, had he not shown his hand too soon. View this post on Instagram For a couple of days at least, for all we knew, James had actually gone and cut all of his hair off, and was now walking around filming videos and making content completely bald. But a couple of days after posting the prank photo, Charles unwittingly uploaded a photo of himself sitting on a ski lift to his Instagram story, with his well-known hair poking out between his hat and goggles, instantly ruining the ongoing joke. According to Charles, the posting schedule for his videos has been thrown out of whack, and he didn\u2019t even realize what he\u2019d done until he reached the bottom of the mountain (presumably). \u201cI posted a selfie on my story earlier today, and looking back at it, I realize I showed my full head of hair. I\u2019m not bald anymore surprise!\u201d Charles said in another video also his story just after posting the picture. \u201cI completely ruined my own prank, like, I exposed myself, of course. This is so stupid, I am so mad, I thought my hat was down and you couldn\u2019t see it, but alas, I have a full head of hair.\u201d James also added that the video that was supposed to go along with this bald prank was supposed to come out today, but his video editors weren\u2019t able to meet the deadline due to ongoing winter weather in Texas. Instead, the video of Charles going bald for a day will come out on Friday, February 19 \u2013 and even though the illusion has been shattered and the prank ruined, he\u2019s promised us it and people\u2019s reactions to him completely hairless will still definitely be worth watching.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>James Charles ruins his \u201cbald\u201d prank with accidental Instagram selfie James CharlesInfluencer James Charles turned out to be his own worst enemy when he tried \u2013 and failed \u2013 at pulling off a recent prank on Instagram.
