We’ve already written about the hottest redheads so it’s only fair we share some words about some of the world’s hot brunettes. Brown hair isn’t as rare as red hair but it still doesn’t make up a large part of the population, with only 11% of people born with brunette hair. Although a small number, it is still the second most common hair color in the world. That’s why you see more famous people who are brunettes showcasing their talents in the entertainment world. It also means there is a large portion of hot brunettes to choose from.

Whether they are actors, musicians, or sports stars, the entertainers and celebrities on this list all have three things in common. They are brunettes, they are very attractive, and they are extremely good at what they do. So read on and discover more about these 12 hot brunettes from the entertainment world.

The Israeli model and actress is best known for playing Wonder Woman in the big-screen adaptation. Crowned Miss Israel in 2004 at the age of 18, the sexy brunette then enlisted in the Israel Defense Forces and did her mandatory two years of service. Once complete, Gadot began modeling before getting her biggest break after being cast as Gisele Yashar in Fast & Furious. She went on to appear in three more Fast and Furious films before being cast in the huge hit Wonder Woman. 

The mother of three is one hot brunette who could be considered a MILF. As well as acting, modeling, and being a mom, Gadot is also a black belt in both karate and krav maga. Her lush brown hair and model looks have seen her top many lists, including being chosen as the ‘Sexiest Actress Alive‘ by Glamour magazine.
