In the 90s in country music, Shania Twain knocked Faith Hill off as the top selling artist by using sex to sell - I don't see it as a hair color excuse to say one is better than everyone else, rather using sex as a marketing strategy to propel one's fame and wealth...because it works.
Each hair color has its stereotype that gets perpetuated, and there are those who require validation of themselves and will use those stereotypes to claim a trait they desire others to respect of them. The problem with that strategy is of course having to them back it up with action (ever seen a red-head who's constantly flying off the handle? No, they just like to say they have temper when they want someone to do their bidding. LOL) Of course there are still brunette beauties, and even Monroe couldn't erase Bette Davis, Sophia Loren, Elizabeth Taylor, Ingrid Bergman, Audrey Hepburn, or Katharine Hepburn despite using sex to sell. Had she lived, she probably wouldn't have been nearly as famous or revered as other actresses of her time, though she was talented. She certainly did have an impact on attitudes abut blondes, but since most stereotypes are largely false, people would be silly to wholeheartedly believe them.
I wouldn't know about the hair color of all the people in Playboy,
but Hefner's got other issues, that's for sure.
