'Alien' Britney Spears slammed by an English designer

British designer Scott Henshall has branded Britney Spears' extreme makeover one of the worst fashion mistakes he's ever witnessed.

The style guru, who has clothed celebrities including Paris Hilton, is stunned the troubled pop star dared to shear her scalp last month because it makes her look like "an alien".

Although the brazen new buzz-cut has won praise from stars including Courtney Love, Gwen Stefani and Justin Timberlake, an unimpressed Henshall sneers: "What has Britney done shaving all her hair off? She's too fat and looks like an alien.

"You can take the girl out of the trailer park but you can't take the trailer park out of the girl. She looks like trash."
