TV star left shocked after a man RIPS OFF her wig

Sinitta was left shocked after a man appeared to rip the wig off her head in London on Thursday as she arrived at The London Cabaret Club in Bloomsbury. 

The singer, 54, was greeting pals out on the street when a man walked up and removed the red hairpiece from her head as she bent down to pick the purse she had dropped. 

Clearly startled in the video footage, the former girlfriend of Simon Cowell was left speechless as a pal picked up her wig from the ground.

Sinitta was seen emerging from a white vehicle in Bloomsbury and seemed to be in good spirits as she kissed and hugged her friend. 

The excited commotion caused her to drop her purse and as she bent down to pick it up, the unknown individual in a light tan jacket approached her. 

He then quickly took Sinitta's wig from her head and dropped it to the ground as he rapidly left the scene.

While no one in the short clip appeared to chase after the man, they all proved to be incredulous.

Sinitta in particular, who was left without her red wig, was seen standing still as she processed the shocking sequence of events.

MailOnline has contacted representatives for Sinitta for further comment.
