Firstly, we’d just like to say, don’t worry ladies, the Top 10 Most Attractive Men in Rock and Metal will be along very shortly and we’re sure you’re not going to be disappointed! This however is, in our opinion, the top ten most attractive women in rock and metal music today. Bring it on…
Hayley Williams – Paramore
The quintessential emo pin-up girl, Hayley Williams is a firm favourite in the ‘scene’. Still fronting the increasingly popular Paramore and with no plans to go solo, hopefully we’ll be seeing much more of Williams in 2010.
Maria Brink – In This Moment
In This Moment’s lead singer Maria Brink only ever seems to appear dressed as Little Bow Peep, and no that’s certainly not a complaint! The relatively well endowed rocker is planning to head back to the studio this February with the band to bring us the follow up to 2008’s The Dream.
Karin Axelsson – Sonic Syndicate
Proving (along with Lyn-Z) that you don’t have to be the lead vocalist to be the eye candy in a band, Sonic Syndicate’s Karin Axelsson combines bass skills with stunning good looks. In a band not short on attractive members, being the only woman probably helps… With their new album, featuring new vocalist Nathan Biggs, in pre-production, the band are hoping for a March/April release.
Lyn-Z – Mindless Self Indulgence
Mindless Self Indulgence’s Lyn-Z is the second bassist in our list, and unfortunately not as sweet on the ear as on the eyes. Legend has it that when she applied to join MSI to replace previous bassist Vanessa YT she knew she wouldn’t get in on instrumental skill alone, so instead blew fire across the room. But alas, we can only dream of what might have been with Lyn-Z after her marriage to the infamous Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance back in 2007.
Emilie Autumn – Emilie Autumn
The new queen of rock to many of us, Emilie Autumn has actually been around for a while, her first album coming out a full 10 years ago. Not afraid to bear all, as the above photo testifies, Autumn is also a classically trained violinist who as a child practiced a good nine hours a day!
Lacey Mosley – Flyleaf
Texan Rockers Flyleaf have Lacey Mosley as their lead singer and very talented she is too. Having been an outspoken atheist when she was younger, Mosley was persuaded to attend church by her grandmother, from where she became a committed Christian. We don’t know whether God had a hand in it, but we do know she’s very blessed indeed!
Cristina Scabbia – Lacuna Coil
The royal empress of metal, Cristina Scabbia has thrilled us all for a good 10 years or more now. Lacuna Coil’s awesome onstage antics and five studio albums have gathered them, and her, a huge following of dedicated fans and critics alike.
Angela Gossow – Arch Enemy
With a penchant for growling rather than singing, Gassow has become hugely popular in the death metal scene with her band Arch Enemy. On top of her ‘singing’ career she also contributes vocals to a character in the animated series Metalocalypse. Angela, if you ever do any proper TV, let us know, we’ll definitely be tuning in!
Simone Simons – Epica
One of the few stunning redheads of rock (alongside Paramore’s Hayley Williams). Apart from the rather silly name, this Dutch leadsinger has striking good looks as well as an astonishing voice. With powerful operatic vocals, Simons is a talent to be reckoned with in the world of metal.
Lennon Murphy – Devil’s Gift
Firstly Lennon Murphy is lead singer of US metal band Devil’s Gift, secondly she’s a saucy Suicide Girl penchant to a bit of naughtiness. A prestigious talent, Lennon’s skills lie both in being a metal front lady and also in her solo sideline of far more mellow piano ballads. Other than her name, there’s absolutely no connection to the famous Scouser.
Have we got it right?

The 20 Most Essential Rock & Alternative Driving Songs
Shirley Manson (Garbage) and mayyyybe Kelly Clarkson.. (is that Rock?)
Garbage is totally Rock. Not sure I am seeing the attraction though! haha. Maybe a few years ago, in her youth?
Here is a worth addition!
Ashley Costello from the alternative band New Years Day…
http://a19.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/23/l_d0dc55993045f460a62d690e887acea2.jpg
How about Sharon den Adel (Within Temptation)…? She’s a stunner! And Amy Lee from Evanescence.
2 missing!!
Marta from Bleeding Through
Krysta from IWABO
tsk tsk
All of these babes are amazing. To rate them would be wrong. How do they perform?
Lzzy Hale of Halestorm?
Amy Lee from Evanescence should’ve topped this list.
Seriously, Emma Anzai (bassist for “Sick Puppies”) should have been near the top, if not queen o’ the hill. Instead she’s not even on the list. WTF.
Emma Anzai from Sick Puppies hands down
I think Emma Anzai – bassist of the band Sick Puppies – should definitely be here :3
agg
no no no no.
More then half of them don’t cut it. From those you listed Cristina Scabbia seems to only be the best one.
You’ve completely missed Charlotte Wessels from Delain. Proper metal chick!
what about Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth or Kim Deal of the Pixies and the Breeders?
no kathleen hanna from bikini kill?
And WHY isn’t Amy Lee – Evanescence on this list?
Amy Lee, Tarja Turunen, Anette Olzon nowhere to be seen, instafail list.
Brody Dalle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IJ3k7CaqGA
otep anyone?
Man they are smoking hot. But where is Amy Lee or Yulia Volkova from Tatu.
Man, this shit ain’t rock ‘n’ roll.
Anissa and Alexia from Eyes Set To Kill should both be on this list!!!
Lzzy Hale should be in this
Lzzy Hale
http://large.pictures.hydrogen.dailybooth.com/e71e04a15af77073e732733d9e453bdc_2122234.jpg
why the hell isn’t Karen O of the yeah yeah yeahs on this list.
Trenton said,
“Anissa and Alexia from Eyes Set To Kill should both be on this list!!!”
I completely agree!!! Also, not a bad list, however, i think that that Emilie girl is maybe a hard techno. I listened to like five tracks and there was no rock, therefore she does not belong in this list.
Laura Nichol from Light This City and now she’s in Heartsounds
I put my vote in for Orithani
Lzzy Hale without a doubt, watch the music video for “I Get Off” and try to tell me that she’s not attractive.
There’s Amy Lee from Evanescence and Tarja Turunen (former Nightwish) missing…other than that…great list. Hayley Williams, Simone Simons and Cristina Scabbia sure get me drooling every time I see them *¬*
Simone should be number, definitely.
BULL-FUCKING-SHIT! have you ever heard of Iwrestledabearonce? look them up!
You left out Orianthi, not only is she gorgeous, she plays amazing lead guitar, and sings.
I love how everyone’s so passionate about hot metal chicks
I’d like to share some praise and appreciation for this awesome list, which opened my eyes to a couple bands I hadn’t heard of, and reminded me of a couple I’d forgotten, and it did it all in such a beautiful, sexy, ****able way.
Thanks so much for putting this together, what a rockin’ idea!
Where is Tarja Turunen???
Where is Tarja? She set the stage for female metal leads. I can’t believe the Flyleaf girl is on here and not Tarja.
Jen Ledger, drummer for Skillet.
Beginning and end of list
Maja Ivarsson…… The lead singer of the Sounds….
Sandra Nasic from Guano Apes? Anyone?
Maja Ivarsson would be my second choice of women who should be on that list.
ummm Amy Lee, anyone?
Maria Brink isn’t as hott in person. it’s depressing. T__T
How can you forget Lzzy Hale?
You have some OK selections. But Paramour, Emilie Autumn MSI, Socic Syndicate (probably the biggest group of talentless hacks on the list)? They are NOT rock or metal by any stretch. You include Simone Simons of Epica, but not Amy Lee. Epica is practically a clone of Evanessence. You need to expand you musical awareness. But hey, it’s your list
Stumbled. Very nice, I got to see the Flyleaf and In This Moment girls in concert and they can really can sing!
cool no karen o
Where the hell is Amy Lee???
Tarja Turunen as well as Liv Kristine (of Leaves’ Eyes).
Glad to see Simone here!!
You’re kidding? No Devil Doll???
Otep Shamaya!!
Agreed with Shirley Manson (if not for her looks, her personality is just as attractive)
Brody Dalle – Yes
Amy Lee – a must on this list
Ana Johnsson ?!
Now, let’s see the male version.
What no love for Tarja Turunen/Anette Olzon from nightwish.
Amy Lee tops them all!
Anybody else got a crush on Allison Mosshart from The Kills?
Check out Queen V
Brought to you by the fine folks at Animal Planet!
UHHHHHHH! HELLO! WHERE THE HELL IS NUMBER ONE? AMY LEE! SHE IS HOTTER THAN ALL OF THESE AND CAN OUT SING ANY OF THEM TOO!
where the fuck is Amy Lee? half of these bitches look like anorexic coke sluts.
I never heard of any of these girls
But the only expetional Lacey Mosley seems to be the less fancy of the ones.
This list MUST include Eva Spence, one of the cutest and (sexy) singer from rock/metal or derivative (Rolo Tomassi)
apparently talent =/= beauty.
it’s a shame too.
Where the hell is Doris from Chthonic? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a37gAVen-Rc&feature=related
lolz at the people going “ZOMG where’s Amy Lee?” Amy Lee is NOT hot, and get real, she’s not that good of a singer.
Alissa White-Gluz from the Agonist should be number 1.
OR AT LEAST ON HERE!
yah… Sharon den adel can beat amy lee in singing… definitely… who I’m looking for are Sharon den Adel, Lisa Middelhauve, Ailyn from Sirenia and Tarja…
where is Marta from bleedingthough??
This is great and stuff but what about alissa white-gluz from the agonist?
This is exactly why people hate Americans. We are so ignorant to everything, including music. Looks does NOT make you hot, talent does. Amy Lee is cute, but she has nothing compared to Tarja, Simone, Sharon den adel…and the likes of those women. There is soooo much more out there than just Amy Lee and Hayley Williams! Challenge yourself to find trained, TALENTED women!
And to the person who suggested Anette Olzon: DIE!
I’ve never heard of the bands, but … huzza-huzza!
sarah underwood from The Creepshow??? brody dalle from The Distillers??? the girls from The Devotchkas??? damn you missed the really good looking ones
what about Tairrie B of My Ruin!!!! surely she is the hottest woman in rock and metal!!!
I do believe you are forgetting Emma Anzai from the band Sick Puppies
amy lee wtf listen to real metal f ing tards
where is poison ivy where is kim gordon
Where the hell is brody dalle? fuck half these girls brody dalle should be on here.
You all know that Sierra Kusterbeck of VersaEmerge is the hottest. And damn, does she have a voice.
what about emma bunton from the spice girls lol
two words: Brody Dalle…..
Soloman, why on earth isn’t Emilie Autumn rock to you? Honestly, you don’t seem to realise how broad the genre is.
YEAH! EA for the win! In other news, I love how most of these comments are all ‘Where the hell’s Amy Lee?!’ not that i don’t agree that she’s pretty, it’s just that there are so many more people out there than just her.
EA is the best and she wins most gorgeous by far <3 <3 <3
Emilie Autumn sould top the list!!
I am also questioning where is Alissa White-Gluz from The Agonist. She’s extremely hot and her voice is also extremely intense and cool.
I also miss seeing my favorite Amy Lee
Emilie beautiful Emilie! Beauty and talent! The comments about Amy Lee really crack me up. I agree with her beauty and vocal talents but when I saw some of my favorite female leads top this list like EA, of course, and Simmone, all I can say is great job choosing! However, I do agree with the concerned individuals with saying that Amy Lee should be up there if other mainstream individuals can top this listing!
Where the hell is Destroy-X of Angelspit?
Sure they’re not metal, but they’re about twenty times more brutal than half of this list. Seriously. I was fucking shocked that Avril Lavine didn’t make an appearance on this web page, that is how un-brutal all of this is.
Also- I’m electing Hizaki of Versailles. He might not be a woman, but he looks better than most women do in a dress.
Lucia Cifarelli of KMFDM, she’s obviously attractive, frontman Sascha Koneitzko agreed so much he married her!
plus she is an amazingly versatile vocalist
Emilie should have gotten number one…because it’s true…but I’m so happy she’s on the list! <333
You gotta check out this chick from South Flordia
heres the link to NME on itunes

http://itunes.apple.com/album/nme/id354768757
Love Emilie Autumn! Amy Lee sucks.
Tarja Turunen and Sharan Dan Adel do deserve to be on the list. Amy Lee… I guess so but.. not as much. She’s pretty and all but there are many SO much better. Emilie Autumn of course is a great choice! Beauty, brains, and talent! How can anytone be betteR?
talentless whores of babylon all of them
FAIL. brody dalle isn’t on here.
I agree, Brody Dalle needs to be here.
Plus, Haley Williams is fail, paramore isn’t even close to rock or metal. BOO!
otep???
Yeah, I couldn’t care less about most of these skanks, where the hell is Brody Dalle on your list?
Where’s Amy Lee- Evanescence??
valerie poxleitner is one of the most beautiful girls. not quite sure if her music would be considered rock, but definitely alternative.
where is Amy Lee and, Sharon Den Adel, , and Tarja Turunen?…well idk, i suppose sharon is more gothic than rock, same with amy, and tarja is like vocal….
What? Most of these women are just barely attractive… Definitely not the hottest rock ban chicks… Hell i think most of them look damn ugly…
What. NO AMY LEE?!
Amy Lee is gorgeous.
Hayley Williams is also.
Besides that, everyone’s….BLEGH.
Christina Scabbia mmm…
You should also put Alexx Calise there. Love me some Italian grrls.
Geez….next you’ll put up Janis Joplin. Not one of these chicks is more than a 6
Where Is Amy Lee !! she is gorgeous and sings astonishingly in Evanescence .
What about Alissa White from the agonist she is simply gorgeous!
Can’t believe you left out Amy Lee and Tarja Turunnen (or however her name is spelled!).
what about lizzie hale from halestorm?
I agree with you JP, where is Lizzy Hale.
nice ladies. looking cooooooooool…..
No Brody Dalle?
no nora aunor too?!
where is amy lee i can`t belive that her is not here and tarja turunen too.
Evanescence is awful. However, Tarja should have been on here. Not all of the pictures are the best, Simone Simmons’ pic doesn’t do her justice at all.
What? No Amy Lee? No Floor Jansen?
Lacey Mosley isn’t that attractive. :/
And what about Candice /ETHS/ – she´s very hot !
all i care about is hayley willaims, since shes first.. i am all good.
wonderful girl. Amy Lee is not enough
no shamaya otep? no rayna from coalchamber? i know coal chamber has been gone for a long time but shes still smokin
amylee!!!
To hell with Amy Lee, what about either Morgan or Mecedes Lander from Kittie, eh?
Gossow is the ONLY one in a real band…
I laugh at all the comments about Amy Lee not being talented, ha!
Just because she doesn’t “scream” or her music doesn’t have the “heavy” sound some of you judge on that basis…
You cannot let your own personal taste get in the way of what are the general facts about a person!
Amy Lee talented? Yes! Very much so, compared to many on this list
Amy Lee: classically trained pianist
classiclaly trained Harpist
painter
songwriter (won national songwriter icon award by the NAAP in 2008)
spokesperson for an epilpsey foundation called “out of the shadows” (outoftheshadows.com)
two time Grammy award winner
over 20 million records world wide (with only 2 studio records)
amazing memorized strong vocals!
Tell me any of those “top” female rock icons reache that
If it wasn’t for Amy Lee you wouldn’t have bands like Flyleaf and Paramore so famous in the US! They paved the way for them in America…
Where the hell is Brody Dalle and Shirley Manson?
Karen O. from the yeah yeah yeahs should be on here, she tops the charts
No Doris Yeh? This is an outrage!
what about sisters alexia and anissa rodriguez from eyes set to kill? cmon guyyyyy
no Amy Lee, the girl from WATF or the girl from Bleeding Through?
And not sure about Lyn Z or Angela Gossow :L
Should be titled “Top 10 Women In Bands Only Because They are Hot”
Or “Top 10 Crappy Acts That Benefit From Having a Hot Girl in The Band”
Where the hell is Amy Lee!? She should be number 1!
NO WAY!!! ALYSSA WHITE-GLUZ from the agonist is more beautiful and hot than any of those named here. Also a Doris Yeh from Chthonic beats anyone in this list.
YAY Emilie Autumn! Finally, some recognation for the lady! And about Amy Lee, oh well, it’s someones opinion xD
Amy Lee is not a hot chick at all… it’s more of a dissapoinment. apart of being chubby (and do not try to convince the world she is not)… she CANNOT sing live at all (fact!!!). Talented? her song writting is average and self centered.
Missing girls here? Yes…
Sharon den Adel (Within Temptation)
que gustos tan malos
como puede lynz estar en este conteo?
esta del puto navo, parece hombre
paramore nisiquiera es rock y mucho menos metal
y dejar a simone simons entre las ultimas pecado ella es la mas hermosa de todas
¬¬
xoxo
LynZ married Mikey Way (bassist for MCR), not his brother, Gerard.
You forgot Doris Yeh of ChthoniC in your list.
► hey hey hey, how about DAWN from fireflight, famous AMY LEE from evanescence?!?
► i so agree with RANDY!
► hey hey hey, how about DAWN MICHELE from fireflight, famous AMY LEE from evanescence?!? and also CASSADEE POPE from Hey Monday…
since no one else has really mentioned her, WHOOOO, GO EMILIE AUTUMN!!! omg she is so beautiful and talented
DD
All of them are gorgeous!!! But Karin, Simone, Lenon and Cristina RULE in this list.
