Unplugged: Bald music mogul Phil Spector ditches wig in prison mugshot after murder conviction [Pic in URL]

By PAUL THOMPSON 10th June 2009

Former music producer Phil Spector has been forced to pose for a prison photo - without his wig.

The 69-year-old, who was jailed for 19 years for the murder of Lana Clarkson, had to leave off his famous bouffant-style wig for the prison mugshot photo.

He was photographed after arriving at the North Kern State prison in Delano, California, where he is being processed before being sent to jail.

Bald: Phil Spector looks gaunt as he poses without a wig for a prison mugshot

Spector became famous at his murder trials in Los Angeles for a series of increasingly outrageous wigs.

His hair always seemed carefully coiffed which added to his bizarre, gaunt look as he stood trial.

The latest prison photo reveals the few last wisps of natural dark hair on the legendary producer's head.

He also looks haggard in the photo which will remain on his file until his release.

You are right.

“She said he and other inmates were being treated ‘like animals’ and that he wouldn’t ‘last a week’.”

That’s another week longer than Lana Clarkson lasted.

[Cicero]

I don’t think the whigs help. He looks just as ugly in ALL those shots.

They say that younger people can’t help how they look, but older people gradually grow into the faces they make for themselves. That certainly seems to be the case with this guy.

I’m sure the inmates will prefer him in a wig...

[Radl]

Don’t be so rotten. He’s not that bad looking.

[org.whodat]

The man may be a nut, drop the may be part, but he produced some fine music in his time.

[EAGLE7]

Haha. If Spector knew he was being compared to Lettermans wife, it would drive him to kill some....oh....never mind.

[DJ MacWoW]

He looks like the crypt keeper.

Yikes!

Dude looks like the psycho-killer in every B Movie ever made! (Which, of course, he is...)

[dragonblustar]

[al baby]

Alan Combs could be his twin

[RegulatorCountry]

Sans wig, Spector's traight out of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, lol. The guy that zotted Frankie at the end.

[mysterio]

I actually thought the previous pics were his real hair.

[mrmargaritaville]

he actually looks like Chris Elliot’s character in “Scary Movie”

[EAGLE7]

"And the guy from the Rocky Horror Picture Show." True. But I think the Rocky Horror guy looks more like Rahm Emmanuel......
