If there ever was a reason for finally going through with that radical new hairstyle, i.e. blowing your head clean off and leaving the mass of your pulverised brain and fragments of skull for that poor sod doing community service to clean up, then the worldwide attention and comment about a young woman going into a hair salon and shaving her hair off is about as good as they come.
Over on Comment is Free, Ben Hammersley not only manages to opine about exactly why this woman, whose name I'm not going to mention, did the deed, but also lets us know about his hideous dragon tattoos. Meanwhile, Zoe Williams, also known as the Guardian's most pretentious and worst columnist, thinks that this is definitely the sign of a nervous breakdown. In the Guardian's own reporting of this world changing event, we're treated to the interpretation of psychoanalyst (the quack section of psychiatry) Bethany Marshall:
Frank Sinatra has never sounded worse.
The Scum, not being one to over intellectualise when it can instead just scrape the bottom of the barrel, gives us the most naive lines it's probably ever written about anyone.
Hello? Earth to Rebekah Wade? This is called marketing.
Being told to get help by the Sun is like being told you're a cunt by Russell Brand.
Elsewhere in today's Grauniad, Sophie Ellis-Bextor entertains with her brilliant reasoning for getting a "sailor-style" tattoo:
This seems to miss the point that if a sailor had actually ever got one of those tattoos then they would have been thrown overboard, but maybe that's what Sophie's trying to tell us. Is this her cry for help? Perhaps Zoe Williams and Ben Hammersley should let us know.
Will you excuse me? I'm going to look for my noose.

"The hair represents the stylists, the handlers, people who are in control of her life and manage her looks. Now she's saying, 'I'm in charge of my looks'. The shaving of her hair is a fresh start, a new beginning, taking matters into her own hands, doing it her own way."

IF anyone portrays how easy it is for young people to fall down the slippery slope, it is troubled pop princess Britney Spears.
She once attended church, spoke out against drugs and restricted her boyfriend to a kiss and cuddle in the back row of the movies.
Hello? Earth to Rebekah Wade? This is called marketing.
That’s all a distant memory. Only 25, Britney has had two children in a year, is going through her second divorce and is in and out of rehab.
The sight of her shaving her locks was pitifully sad. She needs help.
Get it soon, Britney, love.
