Fame Academy star Carrie Grant has debuted a dramatic new hairstyle, swapping her signature bright red bob for a wolf-cut mullet. The 60-year-old singer and vocal coach shared the transformation on Instagram, telling fans she 'needed a change' and felt 'stuck with a haircut'.
In a video showcasing her new look, Grant thanked her stylists for the confidence boost. She encouraged followers to 'try something new', noting that hair can always be grown out if the style isn't liked. Fans were quick to compliment the change, with Spice Girls star Mel C commenting: 'You look amazing, I love it xxx'.
Grant rose to prominence as a judge on the BBC talent show Fame Academy, which aired from 2002 to 2003. She also worked on Pop Idol and co-hosted the children's series Carrie and David's Popshop with her husband, David Grant. The couple, married since 1989, have four children and now run a vocal coaching and motivational speaking business.
Carrie Grant was diagnosed with autism in 2023 and has become an advocate for neurodivergent children and those with special educational needs. Her career began in the pop group Sweet Dreams, which represented the UK at the Eurovision Song Contest in 1983.
