Susan Powter: Stop the Madness!

In the '90s, the two most influential women with shaved heads were Sinead O'Connor and Susan Powter. Culturally, we Americans weren't quite ready for them. Translation: We feared them. However, unlike O'Connor, who had a political agenda and tore us a photo of the Pope on network television, Susan Powter just wanted to help us lose weight. And if you can offer us a way to lose weight that combines impressive testimonials with a low level of personal effort, we will overlook your bleached buzz cut.
