I love Good Girl/Bad Girl matchups. Unlike most of you though, I generally like to imagine the bad girl picking a fight and getting taught some manners by the good girl. Anyways, here are some of my favorite celeb matchups…
Charlize Theron (Bad) Jessica Biel (Good)
Jaime Pressly (Bad) Kelly Monaco (Good)
Debbe Dunning (Bad) Erika Eleniak (Good)
Jenny McCarthy (Bad) Sofia Vergara (Good)
Lynda Carter (Bad) Cybill Shepherd (Good)
Serinda Swan (Bad) Laura Vandervoort (Good)
Raquel Welch (Bad) Linda Evans (Good)
Heather Thomas (Bad) Catherine Bach (Good)
Deborah Shelton (Bad) Donna Dixon (Good)
Charisma Carpenter (Bad) Kayley Cuoco (good)
I would add a couple more to the list:
Farrah Fawcett (Bad) Jacklyn Smith (Good)
Tanya Roberts (Bad) Lynda Carter (good)
Olivia Newton John (Bad) Pam Dawber (good)
Not sure the good girls will win all the fights. I might also flip the good/bad monikers between Dunning and Eleniak. All would be exciting and entertaining to watch.
I also like sometimes going against the grain with a bit of opposite casting, mind-you, some of these match-ups make it necessary
Catherine Bach (Good) ? ... then again, as it's vs. Heather Thomas, it works !
Lynda Carter (Bad) ? & Cybill Shepherd (Good) ? Personally, I see Shepherd being much more the bitch queen from hell type than Lynda. In this case, it could even affect the outcome: (Bad) Lynda would probably take (Good) Cybill, but, if it's the reverse and (Bad) Shepherd comes out swinging low and dirty right from the start, then Good'' Lynda may just go down.
My favorite is Olivia Newton John vs. Pam Dawber, but, Olivia (Bad) ? ... well, again, consider who she's facing here, vs. perhaps the ultimate goodie that is Pam, then even a woman like Olivia could seem like the baddie and she has shown that she does have SOME character, where as Pam deems devoid of any.
Back when I used to write catfight stories, those goodie vs goodie ones were often the most fun to do, but the hardest to get started (the "why" of it, how does it go beyond a verbal argument, then goes one step further after it becomes a shoving match)
Just to finish up on that, one of my favorite cases among the rare opposite-casting that I've considered over the years is Olivia vs. Madonna, with Olivia being the nasty and able fighter, dressed sexily (stockings ect) and Madonna as a prude woman, dressed like the cliché demure housewife (right down to dingy K-Mart pantyhose) who's the type to run to the showers the second that she's on the receiving end of two consecutive face-slaps... not that wicked Olivia would ever leave her off that easy...
