The Saturdays get more than they bargained for at Hair
A scene in Hair stunned unprepared girl group The Saturdays
Friday, 16 April 2010
They are far too young to remember new musical Hair from the first time it hit the world's stages, so perhaps The Saturdays can be forgiven for being a little bit shocked by its content.
According to the Sun, the girl group knew the show is about hippies in the 1960s, but they were not aware that the cast appear completely naked at one point.
The newspaper said their Tweets after they emerged from the Gielgud Theatre gave away their surprise.
"They were actually all fully naked … was unsure where to look!" commented Vanessa White.
However, her bandmate Rochelle Wiseman added that they'd all had a good time once they got over the shock, commenting: "What an amazing show."
Meanwhile, Daily Mail critic Baz Bamigboye has also said he enjoyed Hair this week, calling it vital, energetic and beautifully sung, as well as heart-breaking due to its relevant anti-war message.
