Emma Roberts has revealed that her hair turned green after she dyed it blonde for upcoming movie It's Kind of a Funny Story.

According to WENN, the 18-year-old wasn't sure that her hair would ever be the correct colour.

She explained: "I just thought it would be fun to do something different but I had to sit in the hair chair for ten hours for two days to get this because my hair was brown and then they tried to dye it blonde and it turned green - very scary."

Roberts added: "I was literally like, 'Are you sure this is going to be blonde?' And then it turned red. And then it was blonde."

The actress recently admitted that her blonde hair is getting her more attention from the opposite sex.
