Although she wasn't a natural redhead, Rita Hayworth carried the look well. She was one of the first redheads I remember noticing as a kid growing up. I was quite smitten. Even though her career was over by the late 1950s, she was still occasionally in the public eye. That was when I must have first noticed her.Happy one hundredth birthday to Margarita Carmen Cansino, better know by her stage name:
Rita Hayworth was an American actress and dancer. She achieved fame during the 1940s as one of the era's top stars, appearing in a total of 61 films over 37 years. The press coined the term "The Love Goddess" to describe Hayworth after she had become the most glamorous screen idol of the 1940s.

Died: 14 May 1987, Manhattan, New York City, New York, United States
My first love was a natural redhead, and I was partial to them for years thereafter. Haven't cared anything about them for well over 30 years now. My partner and wife of 33 years is a brunette. No longer think about Rita Hayworth or any other redheads.
@GHT, thanks for the post that brought back fond but forgotten memories.
