The Best Songs About Redheads

As a redhead, I'm biased, but these are some fabulous songs, ranked from top down.

This is terrifying; if this trend continues, there will be several thousand psychokillers qu'est-ce que c'est-ing around, hanging, stabbing, torturing, and enslaving us in the coming decades. On the plus side, TV serial killers tend to be a lot better looking than their real-life counterparts; I’d rather be abducted by James Van Der Beek or Eddie Cibrian than John Wayne Gacy, even if Eddie was cutting [...]

The Seven People in the Entertainment Business I Would Like to Meet

1. The person who photoshops nipples, candlesticks, and g-strings into and out of Erotic Photo Hunt.

2. The make-up artist who does the post-beating work for Lifetime movies.

3. The child-wrangler for movies in which babies are voiced by adults.

4. The director who makes the generic karaoke music videos usually featuring nature shots and bikini-clad ladies from the early '80s regardless of the lyrics or song tempo.

5. The guy or gal who chooses which stock photo subject (a.k.a. unsuspecting sad person) to use in drug/domestic violence/VD PSAs.

6. The costume designer who chose Blossom's hats.

7. The person who does the physics equations I assume are used in Angry Birds product development.
