With Christmas around the corner, it should be a time for cheer and merriment, which is exactly what the people of Devon expected when starlet Joss Stone returned to her home town to turn on the Christmas lights. Instead, many fans were shocked to see Joss’ new doomy, gloomy goth hair – the latest in the singer’s string of hair-endous hairdo's.

Joss, sporting a black and purple streaked barnet, looked worryingly like she’d forgotten to remove her Morticia Adams Halloween wig. No doubt this will have pleased record Company bosses, who started this colourful controversy by reportedly telling Stone to dye her hair blonde again. Joss, being the easy-going young lady she is, objected saying “The reason I keep changing the colour is to make the point that I sound the same whether I’m blonde or purple or blue.” [via contactmusic.com]

Previous hair crimes include excessive volume without a licence, running red [high] lights, and dangerous dyeing. Click here to sample some of Joss’ manky manes.
