Susan Boyle's Got Talent - And A Makeover!

Now If Someone Could Get Simon Cowell To Cover-Up His Chest Hair . . .

Holy extreme makeover! Has Susan Boyle gone Hollywood?

The overnight Britain's Got Talent sensation, whose frumpish appearance is a large part of her considerable appeal, has certainly given her appearance some tzujing over the last few days.

While many (including Susan herself) claimed she looked perfectly fine the way she was, it took less than a week for Susan's transformation to start taking effect.

After getting her fuzzy brows tamed and shaped, she was spotted with a new hair color and cut, new slacks, makeup (gasp) and a Burberry scarf. Geez, what's next, botox and implants?

While no one could accuse Suz of turning into a WAG -- as the highly stylized Wives and Girlfriends of England's wealthy athletes are called -- her decision to dye her hair brown is causing some consternation among the powers-that-be who fret that her new fancy-schmancy-ish look may cost her some support because she "no longer seems real." Oh... PUH-lease!

Who can blame her for a little browscaping? Being referred to as "The Hairy Angel" is not exactly a term of endearment. And it's not like Susan would be mistaken for Katie Price's cosmetic twin or anything. She doesn't look like a dowdy gray-haired matron anymore. She looks like a dowdy BROWN-haired matron. And we mean that in the best possible sense.

So unless she starts flashing a thong, hanging out with Paris Hilton, and talking about a celebrity fashion line, we don't think her Cinderella story has gone to her head. Just her roots.
