Ginger of the Week


After moving to America at the age of six, Swedish-born Ann-Margret was Hollywood's 'It' girl in the 1960s, with her sultry lips and strawberry-blonde waves. She possessed the looks of a sex symbol, but unlike many others, Ann-Margret had loads of real talent (singing, dancing, and acting). The Emmy and Golden Globe winner became familiar to audiences in 1963's "Bye Bye Birdie", playing innocent Kim Macafee. She went on to star in such films as "Viva Las Vegas" (with then-boyfriend Elvis Presley), "Stagecoach", "Criminal Affair", "Grumpy Old Men", and "The Break-Up". She even garnered two Oscar nominations for 1971's "Carnal Knowledge" and 1976's "Tommy".
