M&S model Noemie's cropped hair horror
Updated 15:54pm on 13 Mar 2007Unbelievably, it seems the Britney look is catching on. Gorgeous French model and actress Noemie Lenoir, the face of Marks and Spencer and Next, was spotted in New York - with a freshly shorn blonde crop.
Noemie is barely recognisable without the signature golden brown pre-Raphaelite curls she normally sports in television and advertising campaigns for the companies she models for.

What was she thinking?: Model and actress Noemie Lenoir has cut her beautiful brown curls off for this severe blond crop
With no clue as to why she's undergone such a severe transformation, one can only conclude that she's been cast a baddie in her latest film.
She is currently filming the third instalment in the Rush Hour franchise with Chris Tucker.
The mother of one, who is married to French international and Chelsea star, Claude Makelele, looked like she was getting into character, as she sat stern, and unsmiling while lunching with friends at popular celeb restaurant Cipriani.
Let's hope this attack of the crops isn't catching.
Who will it strike next?

If I'm not mistaken, her hair was that short before she shaved her head for her part in Rush Hour 3.

It's a departure, but she is gorgeous nonetheless. She's a supermodel, not a hair model.

Most models have cut their hair at one time, it's part of her job, she looks great, she has beautiful features and her hair will grow back.

I have to agree, she still looks fantastic! I wish people would get over this long hair syndrome which encourages young girls to go out and get weaves and hair extensions. Noemie's proved you can have short hair and still look amazing. You go girl!
