The fifth of November means different things to different people. It’s Guy Fawkes Day for the British. It’s Tilda Swinton’s birthday for the homosexuals. But for America, and much of the world waiting with bated breath, this year it’s Election Day.
But for Reba McEntire, it’s National Redhead Day. Something she acknowledged in a post earlier today that didn’t go over well with people who thought she should put her focus on the polls and not her roots.

McEntire shared her celebratory post on social media with two pictures, one featuring her long crimson locks, the other with a cropped ginger ‘do, writing, “Long or short, either way I love being a redhead! #NationalRedheadDay.”
On Instagram, McEntire included her 2020 duet “Redhead” with Caylee Hammack, featuring the line, “They raised a little hell when they raised a little redhead.”
While some of McEntire’s fans weighed in favorably over her dedication to her coiffure, the post did indeed raise a “little hell” with others.
“We will celebrate redheads tomorrow. It’s only blue heads today,” one user wrote in one of the most popular comments.
“Read the room, Reba,” wrote another.
“Ma’am…not today,” read a fellow comment.
“Reba, you know what we’re not going to do today? We’re not going to talk about your hairstyle,” said yet another.
The “Fancy” singer, for her part, doesn’t seem to mind. Her X post has had nearly 10 million views and her Instagram post has over 25,000 likes, as of this writing. Maybe some non-Election Day content is just what the people need. And Reba is for the people.
Reps for McEntire did not immediately respond to Entertainment Weekly‘s request for comment.
The singer and The Voice coach is currently starring on NBC’s Happy’s Place, her first sitcom in more than a decade, reuniting her with her Reba co-star and IRL bestie Melissa Peterman. McEntire plays Bobbie, the fiery owner of the titular bar, left to her by her dearly departed father, Happy, only to find out she has a half-sister, Isabella (Belissa Escobedo), who was left half the bar in Happy’s will.
Pulling double duty, McEntire also sings the show’s theme song, which she co-wrote with friend Carole King.
“It just doesn’t get much better than that!” McEntire said of penning the tune with King. “I hope my fans will love this song as much as they did the theme song for the Reba show.”
