History Main / BlondeRepublicanSexKitten

* The TropeMaker is probably Kay Thorndyke in the 1948 film adaptation of ''Theatre/StateOfTheUnion''. She's a hard-as-nails Republican Party power broker and newspaper publishing magnate who is determined to elect her lover, Grant Matthews, as President of the United States. She's also played by a young and gorgeous Creator/AngelaLansbury in a series of either tight business suits or sexy cocktail dresses, so the "blonde sex kitten" part is covered.

* The rather {{anvilicious}} ''Series/MastersOfHorror'' episode "Homecoming" had Jayne Cleaver, an obvious {{expy}} of Ann Coulter. Fallen soldiers return from the dead as zombies ''to vote'' in protest of unjust wars.

* Katie Killjoy from ''WebAnimation/HazbinHotel'' has the looks, and she derisively tells Charlie that she doesn't touch "gays".

Since shows heavy in [[StrawCharacter Political Strawmen]] can overdo it by painting the other side as evil, this character can sometimes be a raging example of EvilIsSexy for an established character with opposing political views. The political dissonance can consequently ignite BelligerentSexualTension between the two, leading to a SlapSlapKiss relationship, often involving arguments about contentious culture war issues as the making out gets heated. Sometimes the established character can find the kitten sexy ''because'' they're so diametrically opposed to everything s/he stands for.

A character type that shows that not all Republicans/conservatives are redneck boys and stuffy old men and that not all women are Democrats/liberals. As it says on [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin the label]], this character is female, attractive, and [[HairColors almost always blonde]]. She's also usually rather more "traditional" in her gender expression than her politically opposite peers. Though this characterization is by no means universal, the look has been noticed, [[https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2017/06/156668/trump-female-standard-of-beauty-diversity-issue described]], and [[https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/2017/feb/20/women-fox-news-dress-alike-republicans-blondes-pundits-ann-coulter-kellyanne-conway-rightwingers analyzed]] across – and outside of – the political spectrum as a kind of performative femininity.

* In Creator/MiraGrant's ''[[Literature/{{Newsflesh}} Feed]]'', Representative Kristen Wagman (who also used to be a stripper) promises in her first election that for every thousand votes, she'll wear something ''else'' inappropriate to the floor. Obviously she won by a landslide for Congress but lost the presidential candidacy.

* The ''Creator/GordonKorman'' book ''Born to Rock'', which features a Young Republicans Club, does have one of the female members be blonde and a lust object for several of the male members, although she avoids most of the negative stereotypes associated with the trope.

* ''Film/{{Bombshell|2019}}'', being about Creator/{{Fox News|Channel}}, discusses this trope ("Early on [Roger Ailes] realized for a network to stay on 24 hours a day you need something to hold an audience. That something is legs. There's a reason for clear desks."), features Creator/NicoleKidman and Creator/CharlizeTheron playing two real-life anchors of that channel, and even one case that works behind the scenes of the network, Creator/MargotRobbie's Kayla Popsil.
