    Phil Spector wore that bloody huge thing during his trial didn't he?

    Any number of them from Afro 'Hair Bear Bunch' to 'sleek 'n sassy'! ;)

    Barbara Windsor - she's allegedly as bald as a coot in 'real life' :eek:

    Barbara Windsor most definitely has a wig, or a weave of some description, I have a close family friend who has alopecia and goes to a top london hair replacement specialist and Babs is one of her clients, she was there the same time as her a few times... its Sylvia something or other

    Most female stars will proabably have hair extensions at some point. Kylie and Dannii have both had them.

    Shirly Bassey wears a wig, Tina Turner does have hair now, it all fell out after she tried to bleach it but it all went wrong, it grew back, but she used to wear wigs.

    Trisha Goddard has a weave, as does Elton John, Gwen Stefani and Beyonce, as do most black female artists, Like Lauren Hill used to sing, "Hair weaves like europeans".

    I remember an interview with Tina Turner where someone asked what her real hair was like. She said, "short, braided close to my scalp".

    Its the white sideburn that gives it away

    I'm still nt convinced Terrry Wogan wears a wig as he does have a big bald spot on the top/back of his head and surely the point of a wig is to cover that up? I think he just has a bad Donald Trumpish comb over.

    I saw Terry Wogan on his Channel 4 show today, and he had the most bizarre hairstyle. Comb-over front and longish back with blondish highlights and greying strands.

    Still love Tel, though.

    I once read that Terry Wogan has many wigs of different lengths to make it seem as if his 'hair' is growing. :)

    Britney wore wigs throughout 2007 after the hair shaving incident. Now she wears extensions.

    Ted Danson.

    Barbara Windsor claims to have very fine hair which is why she always wears wigs. Looking at the carry on films, looks like she has always worn them though.

    Joan Collins is bald, allegedly. I remember a story on popbitch, i think, that someone barged into her dressing room and she was sitting there naked, no make up and bald as a coot, looking exactly like Gollum. I can't think of anything else when I see her.

    Tina Turner was once asked if her hair was her own. Of course it is, she exclaimed indignantly and I have the bills to prove it! :D

    Dolly Parton said that too about her boobs .. haha

    'of course they are my own, bought and paid for :D '

    amazing comeback :)

    I adore Dolly. My favourite quote of hers is 'It takes a lot of money to look this cheap'

    Nothing to do with being black because a lot of white stars have weave or extensions too...Britney, Paris Hilton, Jennifer Simpson and her sister..the list goes on.

    She used to have her wigs made in South Africa.Her wig maker there became very famous and rich on the publicity of this client .Think it was in Durban but stand to correction on that city.

    Joan Collins has worn wigs for so long I wonder if she has any hair at all. Ditto for Barbra Windsor.

    I think there is barely one celeb. who has not or does not do extensions or wigs

    I wish the African American ladies would stop with the long flowing locks of extensions and wigs. I love their own hair plaited in those teeny railroad things.So much more natural and real.
    Oprah Winfrey is a victim of the wig too.

    railroad things? They are called cornrows. Plus people have a right to do what they wish with their hair.

    I've heard Wogan's wig also has a bald patch at the back to trick you into thinking it's his own hair.:D

    Quite clever when you think about it...;)

    With all that money she has (left) she could at least invest in some decent ones and not the half-arsed efforts she seems to favour :confused:

    A certain Mr William Young has got a hair weave, if you look at it closely its just a bit too "slick" for my liking, what do other posters think?

    And when she was asked how long it took to do her hair she said "I don't know - I'm never there!"

    Another time, she said she didn't mind if people called her a dumb blonde because she knew she wasn't dumb - and wasn't blonde.
