Susan Boyle - Makeover

Susan Boyle has after all dumped the frizzy hair and the bushy eyebrows. In a surprise makeover she has been seen on the cover of The Sun with dyed and styled brown curls and less eyebrows.

She said on Larry King Live "why should I change?" but she clearly changed her mind.

Toni Jones, assistant fashion editor of The Sun, said "Compared to what she had, it's a 200 percent improvement. But our readers think this is as far as she should go. We want her to stay one of us, not get hair extensions and a fake tan."

Boyle got her hair done at a local salon for £35 ($50) rather than travelling over 300 miles to London to get it done for for £200 ($295). David Beckham famously had all his hair shaved off for a cost of £300 ($450) when a razor would have done the same job in his bathroom for £1.

Max Clifford, the most famous publicist in the UK, said the makeover could be a major risk as it could destroy the connection between Boyle and her global audience.

"Keep her as natural as possible for as long as possible," said Clifford. "It's more about protection than promotion. She's got the voice. She has to make sure that the person people all around the world fell in love with remains the same."

Miss Boyle has also got herself some new clothes. A stylish black leather jacket and what looks like a Burberry scarf.

The next round if BGT is live on May 23 when Susan Boyle will larn if she has got through to the final. Bookmakers in the UK have made her hot favorite to win the competition.
