While Anna Nicole has been topping all news clips, magazines and tabloids, Britney was put on the back burner. Not to be outdone with the Anna’s demise Britney decided to get back in the public face with this all time attention getter.
She shaved her head and possibly got a tattoo on it.
But that is not the end. This became a profitable situation for a beauty shop owner.
You can buy Britney Spears locks for a Cool Million
Spears had the drastic cut at Esther’s Hair Studio in California on Friday.
The website, buybritneyshair.com, claims to have been set up by salon owner Esther Tognozzi.
It includes photos of the hair, saying it is “absolutely authentic”. Meanwhile, Spears has been spotted in Hollywood sporting a short blonde wig.
Charity pledge ( Yeah Sure, I ‘ll believe it when I see it)
The salon’s website offers bidders an “opportunity of a lifetime” and says a portion of the proceeds will be donated to various unnamed charities.
As well as the hair, the winning bidder will also get the hair clippers Spears used, a blue lighter she left at the salon and the can of Red Bull she was drinking at the time.
The site adds that the successful bidder can pick up the hair from Esther’s Hair Studio in Tarzana, California.
Mr Tognozzi said they originally listed the hair on internet auction site eBay, but it was cancelled for an “unknown reason.”
Internet frauds ( Now everyone is in on the action )
On Tuesday morning there were scores of supposed locks of Spears’ hair for sale on eBay – including some located in the UK and Germany.
“It’s pretty crazy all the frauds and stuff that’s out there,” Mr Tognozzi said. “They’re not even in our state.”

Brittany looks like she has cellulite on her head. I wonder if that also applies to her ass.

She looks like one of those big headed aliens i Star Trek, who could communicate without speaking. I wouldn’t want her hair. How can people be so stupid to fall for this scheme? It amazes me how gullable fans can be!

The red bull she was drinking?? Did she spit in it so anyone who drinks it will go bald too?
That’s one freaky “hairdo” Brittany has! I would be covering my head up too if it looked like that.

I guess bad press is better than no press. A case of too much too soon in life. What is there to look forward too?

I read that one theory is that she had the hairdo because KFed threatened to get her drug tested, as part of their custody battle over the kids. But doesn’t she know, that if you shave your head, they’ll just take the hair from somewhere else? Anywhere else? Unfortunately, we all know she shaves ‘down there’, but they can get drug tests from arm hairs and such.
Anyway, I don’t know if that was her motivation or not, but I thought I would do my part to further the rumor machine!

Well, if they ever tried to remake Star Trek: The Motion Picture, Spears could audition for the role Persis Khambatta played.
