Bad idea. REALLY foolish idea. I'm not aware of this woman, but I can't imagine that her fans are pleased.

| From what I could see online (and through Internet translations), it kind of sounds like she's desperately trying to get out of doing it because of a few haircare or makeup endorsement deals. It'll be interesting to see if it happens -- I could see this being a publicity stunt of sorts. |

Latest I found online is that the writer/director/producer/whatever decided to let her keep her hair after major fan outcry.
So crisis averted. No more to see here. Go back to your homes... ------------- 3 pm is simultaneously too late and too early to start anything. |

By the time I created the topic (July 10) the writer Walcyr Carrasco was keeping his decision to not change the plot and keep the shave scene. He said "I hope she will keep her promisse and shave her head".
Yesterday (July 11), due to her protests and her fans complaints, he gave up and said he will change the plot and she won't cut her hair, like JerkyFlea noticed. I'm happy with this ending. I LOVE short haired and bald girls, but I don't like unwanted haircuts. |

While the world will remain more aesthetic with this decision, one of my biggest superficial pet peeves is when someone says they'll do something (such as agreeing to shave her head to get a role) only to try to wriggle and whine their way out of it when the time comes to deliver. You see it all the time on America's Next Top Model, where girls say they're willing to do anything, and then freak the hell out over the smallest cut.
Granted, shaving your head is not a small cut, but this woman gave her word that she'd do something, and then welshed on it. That makes her more unattractive than a bad haircut ever could. |

America's Next Top Model, with the unsufferable Tyra Banks, is a show I will never watch again. They seemingly have longhair women cut their hair for no apparent reason while giving extensions to shorthair women. All for what? Ratings? They lost me! ------------- Who has more fun than people? |

Yes, many people here in Brazil now are angry with her, not because of her hair but because of the broken promisse. "She's not professional" they are saying (and other harder things). The solution found for the plot: the character will die and she will come back in spirit (with long hair). |

We have plenty of room for women with long beautiful hair in the United States. Please extend an invitation once they kill her off. Thank you in advance.  ------------- Who has more fun than people? |

In this case many people do care. Ordinary people don't forgive this kind of behavior when a celebrity, who earns a lot of money, don't do what is needed for her job. it's the same with a famous soccer player who refuses to training with the team. Many persons can handle with the abism between their own incomes and celebrities big fortunes, but becomes angry if the celebrity doesn't seem to worth each penny. In people's mind Marina Ruy Barbosa was transfered from the "idols" file to the "not reliable person" file (along with a lot of politicians). It may sound unfair (she's only eighteen), but it is how it works. |

Personally, I think it takes a lot of courage to stand up to pressure, and make a decision which you know is right for you. I'm very happy for her. I'm tired of women being bullied into cutting, or worse, shaving their hair off.  |

| But a key point, Bob, is that she wasn't being forced into it. She was told it was a requirement for the job, and she accepted the job. She made a commitment to do it. I'm sure there are plenty of actresses who would have accepted the role if she had turned it down, and now she basically cheated them out of a job. |

Fair point. But they could bump her off, and hire an actress who will willingly do it. But, she has gained a nice fan base now who have howled their protests. (Yes, we howl.) And the producers don't want to lose a popular character, so the story line changed. Hey, she's only 18, and she loves her hair. Who can blame her? I remember when thigh-length lovely Bai Ling shaved her head, and cried a bucket of tears. I thought it was cruel and pointless.  And her hair has never been anything to speak of since. |
