People achieve fame for a wide range of reasons: they land starring roles in the most popular films and TV shows, reach the top of the music charts, lead social movements, or marry a famous celebrity. The world's most powerful female symbols have varied from pop singers and A-list performers to first ladies and sports athletes over the years.

See if you can identify these female celebrities who were famous or infamous during those colorful decades.
