You cut all your hair off. Yeah, I'm a lot more comfortable with my sexuality now. For a long time I wanted to be a feminist who flies in face of convention. I kept my hair long and overcompensated by dressing up to here [brings her hand to her chin]. Now I like to wear sexy things as much as baggy clothes. |

I agree with Alanis.
I feel sexier and dress much sexier and more feminine since I cut my hair short.
I also feel more like a woman, less like a girl.
Alanis does too.
She's great. I love her new look. And I love her music!

I don't think that long hair makes a woman look "girlish", just beautiful!(in most cases) I think Alanis has lost that intangible edgy, dangerous, libidinous look which I found compelling. I think many others who find long hair sexy are similarly deflated over her haircut. Bob P.S. If I didn't know how ravishing she looked with long hair, I'd be more pleased with her appearance now.

I'm definitely voting for Alanis's current, shorter look. First, I think she looks SO much better without the weight of her hair obscuring her face and body, sort of dragging her down. Second, I think it's a more mature (but still very sexy) look that suits her as she gets older. Third, I just think the cut itself is adorable, and the long bangs and styling suit her face really well. Well done, I say!

I agree that she looks "adorable" and quite "mature" now, but I much prefer her steaming hot image with "endless" tresses rippling down her back. Hey, I'm a guy who loves sultry women! It's the sensuality of long locks that gets me to tune in. (lol) Bob P.S. Her music still rocks!

She doesn't look as bad in the pic... but she really really doesn't suit short hair, she looks like a granny. I think she missed the point of her own style entirely one day, and that's what led to this.

A grandma? You are weird, the woman is 30 years old and looks 30. She looks like many young professional women or middle class housewives. It's not a spectacular look but it isn't bad either. I like it and I really like her music.

It may sound harsh, but I agree with Brenda. She does look like a "professional" woman or "suburban housewife". That's why I have little interest in seeing her in concert anymore. I'd have paid a ridiculous price to see her show if she kept the long hair. She was so HOT! Bob

Bob, I don''t know how you think she was so sexy before. She dressed in the biggest sack-like clothes before. Sure she had great hair but it was almost like she was ashamed of being pretty.
Now it seems that she''s realized that she can be a feminist and be attractive at the same time. Good for her! Women CAN be pretty without compromising their principles.

Acutally, that's exactly right. I read in an interview the other day that she used to think being a feminist required her to dress in frumpy clothes and keep her hair long and natural. Now she's realized she can celebrate her womanhood without compromising her principles.
Yesterday morning she performed on CBS's "Early Show" and anyone who thinks she looks like a housewife, think again. She had makeup on, a colorful form-fitting top, and jeans. Her hair was a little flat but still flattering. Damn sexy look if you ask me!
