Some of the hottest and fiercest women of Hollywood don’t necessarily date men. These A-lister celebs helped transition the world from labeling lesbianism as taboo to recognizing it as a legitimate and natural sexuality. These fiery and strong women are some of our favorite actresses, personalities, singers, producers, and comedians. And check this out- they have smoking hot bodies to match their talents. We previously did a list of Fittest Male Gay celebs, and now we are researching the fittest lesbian celebs in Hollywood.
We have been making these lists of the Top 10 Fittest for several years now and continue our legacy with this new list. The HFR institute first compiled a list of the most popular 50 (and living) lesbian celebs and did research on all of them. We narrowed down the list to 35, 25, and finally to the fittest 10. We used interviews and social media accounts to find information, and took into account age, publicly known health issues, and lifestyle.
HFR is showing Hollywood’s favorite lesbians some love by recognizing the fittest and healthiest women – who love women just as much as we do. We present to you our 2017 list of the Top 10 Fittest Lesbian Celebrities in alphabetical order:
