Bad Blondes.

In Young Adult, Charlize Theron plays (spoiler alert) a bad blond who is NOT redeemed by love.  After more than a month, movie grosses around $16 million.     Theron collects an Oscar nomination.

In Bad Teacher, Cameron Diaz plays a bad blond (SPOILER ALERT) redeemed by love.  Movie grosses $100 million; Diaz pockets $28 million. http://nymag.com/arts/all/celebrity-economy/salaries-2012-2/  

To recap:  Evidently, money may not buy you love, but love can buy you money.  Well, love plus drop-dead gorgeous blondness.  That helps, too.
