Blogger’s s all over the world are going wild for Britney Spears' new hair-do. Friday evening, the 25 year old pop singer reportedly decided to convince her Los Angeles hairstylist to cut off all of her hair and shave her head. After discussing the decision with the stylist for several minutes, Spears apparently became frustrated, grabbed the hair tool and removed her hair herself. With all of Britney's recent impulsive decisions (marrying K-Fed quickly, seemingly abandoning her music career altogether, partying with Paris and company, and now the recent hair-do) I can't help but wonder if her drastic changes are publicity stunts, or just bad choices. For years, I was a huge Britney Spears fan, prior to her marriage to Kevin Federline, mostly for her music but also admittedly for her sassy, confident image. Her series of poor choices and frightening image turnaround's have caused me to rethink Britney as a positive role model. Shaving your head is one thing, to each their own, however what do these drastic choices say to her children, family and adoring fans? Because her music career seems to be 'on the fritz,’ so to speak, has Spears resorted to less labor-intensive publicity techniques? It just doesn't seem fitting to blame Britney for loosing her mind, but rather to brand her with a severe case of a media craving. What do you think?
