Hottest Women in the World: Famous Red Heads

So many of my favourite things on earth are red: Ketchup, little riding hoods, etch a sketches…the list is endless. But at the top of my list is the flowing, fiery hair atop those fair, freckled females known as redheads, or gingers. I suffered my first heart break at the hands of one back in high school. At 12-years old I had already acquired a taste for older women. She was 14. Her name was Corrina Lee. How ‘effin perfect is that? Whenever she passed me in a hallway my insides would turn to pudding, while my pudding would retain its chemical composition. One day I summoned all the courage I could muster, equal parts summoning, equal parts mustering, and I handed her a letter. In it I confessed how “neat” I thought she was and how “cool” it would be if we “could” go out sometime. A few days later she wrote back. All the letter said was “You’re going to die alone.” Okay, actually what it said was “I’m flattered but I already have a boyfriend”, but what it said and how I felt were two, very different things.  I had the perfect gold ring picked out for her and everything!  Okay I was obsessed.   The following is a list of my favorite Corrina Lees of the world, hope you enjoy!

    So, if someone has red hair, they make this list?

  • Posted by Habibies at 11:21am on 05:11:10

    Really hotest women like chocolate :P

  • Posted by Adam at 11:25am on 05:11:10

    So why do half these women not have red hair?

  • Posted by Dan Bingham at 11:33am on 05:11:10

    @ Adam. If by “half” you mean the blondish picture of Laura Prepon then I apologize, I must have been on mushrooms when I included her in my list of famous red heads. It won’t happen again, I promise. Please don’t beat me.

  • Posted by Alex at 2:18pm on 05:11:10

    “Whoever the hell this is” is Elena Anaya

  • Posted by toy30604 at 2:33pm on 05:11:10

    What about Felicia Day?

  • Posted by chesh at 2:49pm on 05:11:10

    Or Tori Amos for the Music category?

  • Posted by Dan Bingham at 2:51pm on 05:11:10

    @ Alex. Thanks!
    @ 30604, Thanks for the heads up, she wasn’t forgotten, I’ve included why I didn’t add her at the end of the article. Cheers!

  • Posted by Rob Frost at 3:15pm on 05:11:10

    Yeah, that was pretty much every red head in show business.

  • Posted by Scifideity at 3:29pm on 05:11:10

    Music category needs a few more additions:
    Marian Call (mariancall.com)
    Alison Sudol (afinefrenzy.com)
    Haley Williams (Paramore http://tinyurl.com/296nt88)
    Tori Amos (as mentioned by chesh)

    Also, Christina Hendricks was in Firefly, not just Mad Men

  • Posted by Garnet at 3:44pm on 05:11:10

    Where am I?

  • Posted by Garnet at 3:46pm on 05:11:10

    Also, how about Gillian Anderson? Scully was super hot.

  • Posted by Trey at 4:13pm on 05:11:10

    I was going to mention Haley Williams,Karen Gillan, and Felicia Day but other people have already…

    also could have added:
    Alyson Hannigan (Buffy, American Pie, How i met your mother)
    Molly C. Quinn (Castle) {i know she’s only 17, but she’s still gorgeous}

  • Posted by g at 4:14pm on 05:11:10

    plus..redheads smell, “down there”…
    i know everyone smells some way or another..but if you lined up 100 redheaded snatches and 100 “other” types of snatches….you’ll get more smellier redheaded ones.

    scientific fact.

  • Posted by John at 4:34pm on 05:11:10

    Where’s the chick from Desperate Housewives?

  • Posted by kellanist at 4:40pm on 05:11:10

    G, you are retarded in some small way.

    You also missed Alyson Hannigan….one of my fav redheads!

  • Posted by Sweeny Tod at 1:03am on 06:11:10

    Since when is a dye-job considered real? Have of the ladies I saw in the list are dye-jobs: not real redheads.

  • Posted by imjrt at 2:11am on 06:11:10

    Agreed that Gillian Anderson needs to be on the list, as well as Kari Byron, the Mythbuster! A hot redhead that likes to blow stuff up! Schwing!

  • Posted by LAHOTMAN at 6:20am on 06:11:10

    Someone should take a closer look…that ISN’T Lucille Ball!! As a matter of fact, it migh be a man….

  • Posted by kefkah at 10:28am on 06:11:10

    Why isn’t Angie Everhart on this list?

  • Posted by G-money at 5:11pm on 06:11:10

    You could have included Renee Olstead on that list. She’s smoking hot.

  • Posted by Katie at 1:40am on 08:11:10

    Perfect list of red heads. some of them are really gorgeous.

  • Posted by S at 8:25am on 12:11:10

  • Posted by Pffffffftttt at 8:41am on 13:11:10

    And where is Jayma Mays!?

    She’s most gorgeous real red hair woman on the planet. c:

  • Posted by LaMorteNoir at 8:49pm on 11:12:10

    S is right; that is not Melissa Auf De Maur. That is British supermodel Karen Elson.

  • Posted by Akorn at 5:50pm on 09:01:11

    Just as a note, the woman that played that screaming vamp on the end was Elena Anaya as Aleera in Van Helsing

  • Posted by kevinvalor at 2:57pm on 17:03:11

    Here are a few redheads: Esther Williams,Sarah Bernhardt,Mark Twain,Woody Allen,Winston Churchill,Anne Boleyn,Stan Laurel and who can forget Mason Reese

  • Posted by russell brown at 4:01pm on 11:04:11

    love the movie

  • Posted by russell brown at 4:02pm on 11:04:11

    good look yea

  • Posted by sasa at 12:49am on 16:04:11

    that is not Melissa Auf der Maur :(

  • Posted by hardparts at 10:45pm on 17:04:11

    are you kidding, what 3 or 4 dead women, a washed up spice girl, and a who is this? I vote for Czech model Ariel as the hottest redhead ever. Even if she isn’t a natural redhead, (and I don’t know if Laura Prepon is either) she should have been because she looks perfect as one. Best looking eyes ever.

  • Posted by Laurene at 1:23am on 21:09:11

    You’ve omitted probably the most famous redhaired movie actress: Katharine Hepburn

    and don’t forget model Lily Cole

  • Posted by Patrick at 7:02pm on 02:10:11

    you would think if they are going to put Lucille Ball on the list they would use her picture instead of some look-a-like

  • Posted by jp_in_japan at 8:58am on 05:10:11

  • Posted by zygama at 1:30pm on 04:12:11

    dont forget gates mcfadden for all the trekkies!

  • Posted by BroTwist at 10:04am on 03:01:12

    Now, can we have a list with *real* redheads only?

  • Posted by mike reynolds at 4:27pm on 04:01:12

    My favourite has to be Isla Fisher she is hot as hell and is closely followed by Julianne Moore. Hot as hell in Boogie Nights

  • Posted by sahir at 5:02pm on 21:01:12
