58. Emilia Clarke, 2019
It’s only normal if it takes you a minute to recognize her, since we’re used to seeing Emilia Clarke in blonde as the iconic Daenerys Targaryen (also known as Khaleesi) in the hit show Game of Thrones. However, as natural as she looks in blonde, the British actress’ real hair color is brunette. That’s why for the Academy Awards red carpet in 2019, she decided to go back to her origins, and surprised the crowd when she showed up to the ceremony as a brunette.
Blonde, brunette or even blue, the talented actress looks good no matter the hair color. To complement her old-new brown hair, the Queen of Dragons wore a metallic, strapless lavender dress by Balmain. The actress had a lot to celebrate that year, such as the successful season finale of Game of Thrones, but that year she was also presenting an award, so this might explain her dazzling look.
