Wanna-be Gingers

Recently a very well known celebrity decided to attempt the ginger look, and failed.

Who would’ve thought that a woman with naturally dark skin would choose fire hydrant red as a hair color? Surprisingly the crowd that voted on celebuzz.com chose “Yay – it’s red-hot and gorgeous!” To be honest, Rihanna is one of the very few people who can pull off her look, so props to you Rihanna! Even though you aren’t a natural, I’ll still give you props for trying.
New hair!
