Kate Moss's hairy moment

Clip-on hair is for Kardashians and Hiltons, right? People who love teeny dogs, cosmetic surgery and stripping in Vegas. Oh, and people like Kate Moss.
As you may have already heard, Kate lost her head—or part of it—while leaving the Berlin launch party for her new fragrance, Velvet Hour. A track of blond hair extensions tumbled from Kate's tousled bed-head and plopped on to the red carpet, shortly before being scooped up by an intrepid papparazzo. He then sold the  locks on eBay, with proceeds benefiting a drug awareness foundation in Germany. Go figure.
To avoid such embarrassment in the future, we'd urge Moss to go the whole hog and get some proper celebutard tresses: from Hollywood extensions guru Sheila Stotts, of course. She charges ladies like LC, Paris and Courtney Love anything from $1500 to $16,000 for a 'strand-by-strand', where half-inch pieces of are glued or bonded into place.
Or Kate could go right to the source, and clip in one of Jessica Simpson's HairDos (created with Ken Paves), or a headband fall from Paris Hilton's new Dreamcatchers brand of  hair extensions which promise that "Finally, you can have the exact same hair as Paris Hilton."
Yikes.
