Troubled star Amy Winehouse has shocked fans by chopping off her trademark beehive hairstyle.

The ‘Back To Black’ singer has had her hair cut into a short crop, and has swapped her formerly dark locks for a peroxide blonde hairdo.

The new style is reported to have been the work of her hairdresser Alex Foden, who lives in the same east London apartment block as Winehouse.
