Hathaway's LES MIS Hairdo Named All-Time Most Influential

The short-cropped hairdo that topped Anne Hathaway's head as she made her way to Academy Award glory as put-upon prostitute Fantine in the mega-successful stage to screen transfer of LES MISERABLES has now been voted the "most influential" haircut of all-time in a new poll.

The Hairdressing Council of Great Britain and Universal Pictures conducted the poll of 1000 people and Hathaway's 'do ranked at number one overall, besting some seriously iconic other onscreen looks.

Other contenders who placed in the top five in the poll include ALONG CAME POLLY's Jennifer Aniston, Audrey Hepburn ala CHARADE, Veronica Lake in THE BLUE DAHLIA and Molly Ringwald in THE BREAKFAST CLUB.

Hathaway famously shed her long brunette locks live onscreen for the pivotal scene in the sung-through musical in which her tragic character sells her hair and teeth for money to send home to her daughter, Cosette, before then declining even further.

Hathaway received the 2013 Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her work in LES MISERABLES.
