Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Some women (I'm told) fake it: but which actress was "Legally Blonde"?

Answer: Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon starred in the 2001 comedy "Legally Blonde" and the 2003 sequel "Legally Blonde 2" as a somewhat scatty college girl who wanted to prove to an ex-boyfriend that she had substance as well as style. Although socially a bit of a misfit, she set out to earn a law degree.
2. "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes", or so a 1953 movie would have us believe. With stars such as Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe in the cast, director Howard Hawks may well have had a point. What, though, did a song from the movie suggest that the blondes preferred as their best friend?

Answer: Diamonds

"Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend" was a song from the Broadway show on which the movie was based. Carol Channing sang the song in the show and Monroe reprised it in the movie. "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" was first a novel, then a stage show and a silent movie before it became a musical on Broadway. Russell and Monroe played two showgirls on a trans-Atlantic cruise looking to have a good time and to find a rich husband.
3. Which singer/songwriter was capable of many styles and rose to new heights with an album called "Blonde on Blonde"?

Answer: Bob Dylan

"Blonde On Blonde" was Dylan's seventh album and was released in 1966. It reached Number 9 in the US charts and Number 3 in the UK.
4. Which singer declared that "Blondes Have More Fun"?

Answer: Rod Stewart

"Blondes Have More Fun" was the title and a track from Rod Stewart's ninth album, which was released in 1978. The opening track "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" was a UK Number One hit. The answer is that some women at least did and he was known for his relationships and marriages to - mostly - blondes.
5. "It takes a lot of money to look this cheap": Which Southern songbird was the subject of a biography called "Smart Blonde"?

Answer: Dolly Parton

"Smart Blonde" was written by Stephen Miller and was an unauthorised biography of a country singer famous for her luxuriant blonde hairstyle and some other notable features. "It takes a lot of money to look this cheap." was one of Parton's own quips about herself and she freely admitted to enhancing her looks and that she once entered a Dolly Parton look-alike contest - and lost.
6. "I wanna be a platinum blonde Just like all the sexy stars Marilyn and Jean, Jayne, Mae and Marlene Yeah they, they really had fun In a luminous day-glo shade Walk into a bar and I'll have it made..." Which appropriately named band sang these lyrics?

Answer: Blondie

"Platinum Blonde" was a 1975 demo. It appeared on the reissued album "Blondie" in 2001 as a bonus track.
7. "The name's Blonde, Jane Blonde", or so might the hero of a series of espionage novels for younger readers have said. Who created the fictional Jane Blonde?

Answer: Jill Marshall

The 'Jane Blonde' books were, of course, a parody of the James Bond franchise. They told the story of an ordinary girl called Janey Browne and her alter-ego 'spylet' Jane Blonde. Like Bond, Jane Blonde had a liking for wonderful gadgets. The first in the series, 'Jane Blonde: Sensational Spylet', appeared in 2006.
8. Which actress nicknamed "the blonde bombshell" starred in a 1931 movie called "Platinum Blonde"?

Answer: Jean Harlow

Born in Kansas on March 3 1911, Jean Harlow was pretty-much stereotyped as a sultry blonde vamp. Harlow's most productive period was between 1928 and 1937, when she sometimes made up to four movies a year (seven in 1931 alone). "Platinum Blonde" was the story of a girl from a high class family who fell in love with a newspaper reporter who had published a scandalous story about the family.
9. There are lots of female characters in animated TV shows and cartoon strips, but which of these was the only blonde girl?

Answer: Angelica Pickles

Angelica Pickles appeared in the TV shows "Rugrats" between 1991 and 2004 and then "All Grown Up!" between 2003 and 2008.
Peppermint Patty and Lucy Van Pelt both appeared in the long-running "Peanuts" cartoon strip and TV show. Velma Dinkley appeared in the "Scooby Doo" adventures.
10. Some people maintain that the 1940s and 1950s were a golden era for Hollywood. Of these four stars from that era, which was the only blonde?

Answer: Greta Garbo

The three wrong answers were all noted for their darker tresses. (This is not to claim that one or more did not adopt a different from usual colour for a particular role.)
