I need to join in supporting Susanna. To me no one else in music is all that close.

I always thought Gwen Stefani was very attractive. She tends to favor hair, makeup and fashions that (IMHO) are unflattering.  
Susanna Hoffs is certainly near the top.  
Belinda Carlisle of the Go Gos was pretty cute at their peak.  
Too many to list really.

So why not post some non-pale ones you think fit the OP, rather than a drive-by thread shit?

[Linda Ronstadt](https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/linda-ronstadts-road-to-the-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-10403/) was the first to come to mind.

Also [Stevie Nicks](https://www.pinterest.com/pin/507921664201418755/).

And [Margo Timmins](https://www.pinterest.com/pin/42080577738274221/).

The queen/angel of them all: Emmylou Harris.

I also endorse Debbie Harry and Susanna Hoffs. My own contributions are [Natalie Imbruglia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natalie_Imbruglia),[lsobell Campbell](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isobel_Campbell), [Melissa Auf Der Maur](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melissa_Auf_der_Maur), and Neko Case.

Oh, and also Katie Melua, she’s ridiculously beautiful.

You are all quite mistaken. It’s [Carly Simon](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/0523/0523543_sa.jpg), no contest.

Several of my teenaged and young adult crushes have been already mentioned here: Olivia Newton-John, Debbie Harry, and Shania Twain.

I’ll also nominate Kristin Chenoweth, particularly from [a few years ago](https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/annie/images/b/be/Kristin_Chenoweth.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20180601191759).
