44. Debbie Harry
Born July 1, 1945
Why She Sizzles:  Her face jump-started the music video revolution. Any further questions?

When We First Fell in Love: When she ‘rapped’ on the 1981 smash hit “Rapture," featuring the lines: “And then you’re in the man from Mars/ You go out at night, eatin’ cars/ You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too/ Mercuries and Subarus."

Career Highlights: Blondie's Parallel Lines featuring “Heart of Glass” and “One Way or Another” in 1978; the band’s induction into the Rock ‘N Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.

Career Lowlights:  Her last recording with Blondie, 2003’s The Curse of Blondie, had some terrifying rap-rock elements, and still managed to bore:
“Work”: Blondie admitted to a facelift a few years ago. She’s also probably had eyelid surgery and Botox injections. She’s said, “Everybody knows that I’ve had plastic surgery. I did it for business reasons…All sorts of horrific things happen in life—why make it worse by worrying about getting older?”
