The world's smallest violin plays for Phil Spector


The Age.com.au:
A prison mug shot of Phil Spector that has been released confirms what most have suspected - his curly shoulder length hair during his trial was a wig.

The music producer, sentenced last month to 19 years to life in a US prison for killing actress Lana Clarkson, had to take off the wig and is now wearing a Jewish yarmulke (skull cap) in his cell, his publicist Hal Lifson said.

"They took my husband's freedom and dignity. So why not his hair?" said Spector's wife Rachelle, who had previously suggested that her husband's thick mane of hair was his own.

"This is a personal matter," she said. "But in case you don't know, they don't allow for much accessorising while in prison."


The heart breaks, does it not?
