Tom Cruise's son Connor has ditched his usual prim and proper look for an edgier style. The 17- year-old, who adopted the stage name DJ C-Squared, revealed a lofty Mohawk, with winding designs etched into the side of his head, via Instagram. The caption simply read "Chopped."

While Connor's new cut looks rather badass, the drastic change has us wondering whether his father's split with actress Katie Holmes, has somehow influenced his rebellious new look.

After his father's much publicized split, Connor took to Twitter to voice his opinion, "#LaFamilia Always. Friends Come And Go, But Family Is Forever." We now believe something more might have been bubbling beneath the surface of that reserved tweet.

His adopted sister Isabella, has not been vocal about the divorce. But we imagine she can't be too thrilled with Holmes, since she was reportedly fired from her clothing line, "Holmes and Yang," two months prior to the split.

"There was never any trouble between them," a source reported. "Bella called Katie 'Mom.' She was fired out of the blue, and once Katie filed for divorce, it all made sense. This was a carefully planned ambush. Katie didn't want Bella working for her anymore because she was Tom's kid."

What do you think of Connor's edgier new do'? Could it be a way to look the part at the turntables or is he crying out for help? Weigh in!
