Sinead O'Connor falls foul of the Daily Fail
sinead's appearance displeases the style experts at the DM
It's hard to believe that this is the Sinead O'Connor who, 20 years ago, stared intently into a camera and sang the now iconic song Nothing Compares 2 U. "The Irish singer, renowned for her shaved head appearance, looked somewhat different as she was pictured in Dublin yesterday.
Surprisingly, the 43-year-old campaigner was sporting a full head of hair, which she teamed with a very dowdy-looking coat and flowing red dress."
How dare this 43 year old mother of four not look like she did 12 years ago!

Pathetic journalism.
O'Connor was a beauty back in the day IMHO but the shaved hair and doe eyed look was 20 years ago. I genuinely don't understand what point they are making.
Oh because she's 'let herself go', I expect. That's a hanging offence. And she's out in public in a comfortable coat, and not all dolled up. Another hanging offence.
Sinead has always been a very careless beauty - one of the reasons, apart from her amazing voice, why I've always liked her. She's never relied upon her looks.
We're talking 20 years down the line here - of course Sinead is going to look different!! She has never been one to trade on her looks or be super-groomed anyway.
On saying that - she looks fine in those pics.
Once again, typical Daily Mail :rolleyes:
sinead has turned into a bit of a baglady imo and just because we're 20 odd years on from Nothing compare 2u is no excuse to let yourself go which she clearly has.
She can let herself go if she wants. It's her appearance. Just because she was a big-selling recording artist, doesn't give her some obligation to the community to maintain any sort of image.
Obviously the Mail is giving her a break over the Easter weekend.
Interestingly enough, both Punch & Judy used to take items out of the DM when they presented This Morning and used them for topicss in the programme the following day.
I wasn't aware that people needed to excuse the way they looked to Daily Mail writers. :rolleyes: I suppose with such gorgeous stunners as Richard Littlejohn, Jan Moir and Paul Dacre working for them, they are in a great position to judge.
And what business is it of the Daily Nazi if she wants to let herself go?:rolleyes:
Probably. What's pretty disgusting here is that they take one shot of her out shopping, just going about her business, and use this to demonstrate how she's - in their words - gone all dowdy and aged. Whereas they could have used another contemporary shot of her to show that she still looks great and still has the fabulous bone structure and eyes she was renowned for 12 years ago.
F for FAIL.
And of course if she does decide to get botox, the Daily Mail will mock her for that too.
Yep!
Even in that pic I thought she looked fine for an off duty photo - she actually reminded me a lot of Sorcha Cusack when she played that nurse in Casualty.
What does the fact she has four children by four men have to do with ANYTHING? ooh, stupid daily mail.
Because they're incapable of having an article about a woman where they don't mention who she's having a relationship with or how many kids she's got in a way that they don't do with men. And oh how they rub their hands with glee if they're to more than one father! In the DM women are defined by these things not who they are, what they do, what they say or what else they've done :rolleyes:
Of course the underlying dig here is 'ooooh she's had 4 children and really let herself go!' Well so what? Maybe she was having a comfy day. I should imagine a lot of their readers have also have 4 kids and don't look how they did 20 years ago. I'm about the same age as Sinead and would hate to be compared to a photo of myself from then! :eek:
Leave Sinead alone. Not all of us get dressed up to the nines a la Cheryl Cole or Victoria Beckham to go and get a pint of milk.
Oops, sorry - forgot about the 'Ms X is too fat or too thin' and 'Pregnant woman weighs more than before she was pregnant' stories.
The Daily Fail just hate women. All women.
LOL. Just more of the same, Disapproval that she won't march to their hypocritical and narrow beat.
What a pack of old hags they are.
