GL's 6 fave strong female celebs

Check these out, too...

  • Tune up your summer concert wardrobe with these picks
  • It's puppy love with The Last Dogs: Dark Waters
  • Fash face off: Selena vs. Taylor
  • Our take on Demi Lovato's latest album
  • Book series you've gotta start this summer
March is National Women’s History Month. Time to celebrate! We’ve picked six celebs we feel are strong, tough and able to do anything. We consider all of them our role models. What about you?

  • 2-Jordin.jpg
  • 3-Jennifer.jpg
  • 4-Beyonce.jpg
  • 5-Michelle.jpg
  • 6-Tina.jpg
  • SlideShowBanner.jpg
  • 1-Ellen.jpg
    Ellen DeGeneres

    Sweater vests and random dancing are only the beginning of what make Ellen, well, Ellen. She’s smart and funny and stands up for her beliefs. Celebs love being on her show, we love watching it, and she enjoys making it. A win for us all!

  • 2-Jordin.jpg
    Jordin Sparks

    Mustering up her courage at 16, this fierce femme auditioned for American Idol. And the rest is just beautiful entertainment history. Hit singles, fabulous albums and music videos. This woman is not only strong vocally, but mentally and physically.

  • 3-Jennifer.jpg
    Jennifer Aniston

    She never really plays an action star in a movie. Can’t sing like Christina. But Jennifer Aniston definitely has strength. She can rock a bikini and strapless dress like it’s nobody’s business. She deals with the constant nagging from the media about her and Angelina’s fighting over Brad and blah blah blah. Jennifer can handle anything that is thrown at her, which is why she always remains on top.

  • 4-Beyonce.jpg
    Beyoncé

    She sang it best in the Destiny’s Child song, “Independent Woman.” Because that is exactly what Beyoncé is. Yes, she has Jay-Z, but she doesn’t need him. She can run a music empire, sing her amazing heart out, inspire others, give money to charity…and anything else she sets her mind to. This woman wants to do everything, can do everything, and our bet is that she will do everything.

  • 5-Michelle.jpg
    Michelle Obama

    As the First Lady, Michelle Obama has had to act strong for her husband, you know, the Prez? But the thing is, she’s not acting. Michelle is a mother of both her children and of the entire country. She has come up with her own national programs to get children to eat better and healthier. She has one of the warmest smiles around. But her toughness always shines through.

  • 6-Tina.jpg
    Tina Fey

    Humor is strength. Tina knows how to be free, to have fun, and to be able to laugh at herself. A great Saturday Night Live star, an awesome movie career, an author, and an all-around businesswoman. Tina Fey has got it going on because of her strong-will and dedication to being the best she can be.

okay i think it is great to feature women on this day, but it disgusts me on WHY you feature some of these women. I have nothing against them but should we seriously be looking up to someone because they "have strong vocals" or "rock a bikini"? what about the women that are campaining against Kony, or helping starving children, or visiting cancer victims? has our world become so shallow that our new standards for a role model is how good they look at the emmys?

Why isnt Demi Lovato on here? After all shes pulled through she deserves to be #1 on this list.

They only picked SIX strong celebs! It doesn't mean they don;t think there are lots more. Calm down if your fave star didn't show up.

You forgot Megan and Liz and also Taylor Swift!! :O

I probably would've added Demi Lovato in place of Jennifer Aniston, and maybe someone like Bethany Hamilton in place of Tina Fey (although I absolutely love her!)

@Deedles1621 - yes, Michelle Obama... why is that a problem to you?

report

by fireworks1071 on 3/8/2012 7:13:01 PM

 
 

Where is Demi Lovato? She is wayyyy braver and stronger than Michelle Obama. Demi is a great role model not only for me but also for other girls who are struggling or recovering. When I saw the article's title I thought that Demi was definitely going to be in it. I'm not hating on the people in this article. I look up to most of them. I think they are brave but I also think that GL should have included Demi.
