Joss goes straight with sleeker new image

After splitting up from her boyfriend, Joss Stone could be forgiven for wanting to wash that man right out of her hair.

But the 20-year-old singer obviously decided to go one step further, trading in her frizzy pink hairstyle for a sleek, straighter style with two-tone purple highlights.

The star sported the dramatic new look as she signed autographs at her concert in Vancouver, Canada.

But it is not just the hairstyle that has changed for Joss, who was propelled to stardom when she was a 15-year-old Devon schoolgirl.

In recent months she seems to have become increasingly eccentric and was booed by fans at a London concert after turning up more than two hours late to perform.

She is on record saying her best friends are her hairdresser, her mother and her dog.

She is said to be heartbroken over her split with long-term partner Beau Dozier, a record producer eight years her senior.

The singer has been living in an apartment in New York, which could have prompted her sophisticated new image.
