Claudia Winkleman reveals new hair on Strictly after poking fun at her fringe trim

She's the proud owner of one of the most famous fringes in television so Claudia Winkleman got fans talking after going in for the chop.

Claudia, who has sported her famous floppy fringe for more than 20 years, revealed that she'd had a trim ahead of Saturday night's Strictly Come Dancing (November 13).

The 49-year-old BBC dance show co-host poked fun at her new look by sharing a picture of Jim Carrey's goofy blunt-fringed character Lloyd Christmas from the comedy film Dumb and Dumber on her Twitter and Instagram.

"Also, I've had quite a fringe trim," she teased.

"You’re getting carriedd away," replied one follower.

But when she stepped out onto the dancefloor fans needn't have worried, with some saying her the new fringe showed off her striking eyes with less length.

"Beautiful eyes Claudia," said one.

"At last we get to see your beautiful eyes," admired another.

"She bangs, she bangs. No you don't look like Jim Carrey," another reassured.

"Loving the trim!!" another enthused.

"Claudia Winkleman is hair goals. And my fringe icon," commented another.

Claudia also mixed up her looking by swapping her trademark smart black outfits on the show for a red and white flouncy dress.

"Polka Dots!! Not really a fan but on you Claudia....STUNNING," cried one fan.

On last Sunday's results show Claudia dazzled in a pair of striking sparkly boots worn with her black outfit.

And for Saturday night's competition she switched her trademark nude lipstick for red and wore an oversized suit.
