Lily Allen has gone back to black by dying her pink locks especially for her nan's funeral.

She used her blog to inform her fan-base of the change, but was embarrassed nonetheless.

Allen said: "I got bored of the pink, I can't believe I'm posting a blog about my hair!

Her change of appearance was a decision based on her grandmother's passing and she added: "My nan would have killed me if I went to her funeral with pink hair."

The Smile singer also updated her Facebook relationship status to inform fans she's back together with former partner Ed Simons of the dance act, The Chemical Brothers.

The couple were seen arm-in-arm at Glastonbury Festival last month, where Allen dedicated a song to her late grandmother when she performed with Mark Ronson.
