These blonde pinup queens exuded sex and were the fantasy girl for many men in their time.
The original "Platinum" blonde, Jean was discovered by Howard Hughes and was known for her sexy but tough girl image. Although many critics said she couldn't act, she had an undeniable sexy presence. Tragically, like other Hollywood blondes she died at the young age of 26.
Another tragic blonde, Marilyn's popularity continues decades after her death. The most popular of the blonde bombshells, she longed to be recognized for her acting instead of her curves.
Often called the "poor man's Marilyn Monroe", Jayne Mansfield was bigger busted than Marilyn but rose to fame for exploiting her blonde hair and curves for the camera. She also died tragically when she was only in her 30's.
Mae West was not only a blonde bombshell but she was controversial because of her one-liners that showed her feminist side in an era where women did not publicly display their sexuality.
Another of Howard Hughes' blondes, Mamie was a blonde bombshell who like Jayne Mansfield was noticed for her blonde hair and curves and was not taken seriously as an actress. She never gained the success that Marilyn Monroe did but she was one of the blonde bombshells of Hollywood.
These famous blondes were seen as sexy in their time and some of them remain as timeless blonde bombshells.
I like the fact that Marilyn Monroe wore a size 14. She was all woman.
All true and I think Dolly Parton is up there, too. :)
