That’s right, folks. January 12 marks that hallowed day on the calendar when we all unite in showing our ginger-haired brothers and sisters some love! (**Always ask permission before kissing; do not take it upon yourself to give out unsolicited kisses to unsuspecting gingers.)
To mark this most momentous occasion, OnBuy.com surveyed 5,450 people to see which of our favourite redhead celebrities we would kiss if we could. Drumroll please…
Despite his dedication to Meghan Markle, Prince Harry is the ginger that we would most like to kiss on the 12th with 83% of respondents voting him as the most attractive. Said to get his fiery red locks from his grandfather Prince Philip, it seems he has him to thank for this win.
In second place is Isla Fisher. From Scooby-Doo to Wedding Crashers, it’s clearly hard to forget her beautiful ginger tresses when playing these iconic roles. She definitely left an impression on the 81% of people who voted for her as one of the most attractive.
Following closely behind with 78% of votes is Jessica Chastain. Known for playing roles with feminist themes and being voted one of the 100 most influential people in the world by Times Magazine, her natural ginger hair is just another thing to love about her.
Karen Gillan takes fourth place with 77% of people voting her as one of the most attractive natural redheads in the celebrity realm. Even after having to shave her head bald for Guardians of the Galaxy, the love for her natural hair still shines through!
Taking fifth place is none other than Michael Fassbender with 74% finding his ginger hair and copper coloured beard attractive. Among the many iconic films he’s appeared in include X Men and Assassin’s Creed, and his hybrid accent of English, German and Irish can also be said to add to his attractiveness.
Lower down on the list are Ed Sheeran (53%) and Benedict Cumberbatch (52%) who take up 17th and 18th place, respectively.
Completing the top 20 is Marcia Cross with 49% of people voting for her. From Desperate Housewives to the throwback that is Melrose Place, her iconic tresses have been gracing our screens for years.
