Lil' Blonde Darling: Angelyne!

Blonde Beauty Icon Angelyne

This is definitely what you would call an "LA Blonde"! Behold the epic blonde glaMOUR of Angelyne! An "actress" and "model", she's been an LA fixture since the early 80's, when a series of handbills baring her photo started to appear around the city. She soon transitioned to huge billboards, paid by, in her words "investors" which became a Hollywood pop culture landmark. She can often be spotted around Hollywood, driving in her pink Corvette with vanity license plates reading "ANGLYNE"and toting around her pink Maltese dog, Buddah. She even ran for California Governor in 2003!! Her slogan during the campaign was "We’ve had Gray (Gov. Gray Davis), we’ve had Brown (Gov. Jerry Brown), now it’s time for some blond and pink." Calling herself a real-life Barbie doll, she is usually only seen wearing shades of pink, something that was lampooned for the character Vylette, in the 1999 film Jawbreaker. Yes, she is over the top BUT you have to admire her complete and total commitment to her look. She is never seen not "done"....and of course I have to applaud her on the shameless self promotion! Shwerk!

I mean?!
