"  If you don&amp;#039;t know who Emilia Clarke is, she&amp;#039;s the 26-year-old British actress who plays Daenerys Targaryen on Game of Thrones (who&amp;#039;s the only female character to earn a perfect score in our badass-ness ranking, naturally). Everything about Daenerys is insanely awesome, from her pet dragons to her platinum blonde hair, which Emilia spoke out about in an interview with The Los Angeles Times yesterday.  Apparently the actress, who&amp;#039;s naturally a brunette, has a bit of a love/hate relationship with that platinum blonde wig she wears on GoT. It was what she immediately called out when asked about her biggest challenges on the show&amp;#039;s set: &amp;amp;gt;&amp;quot;The challenges are namely the physical aspects of being under the baking sun in a desert in Morocco with a wig on feeling very hot,&amp;quot; Emilia said.  But it&amp;#039;s also something she clings to as a confidence-booster, because it forces real life Emilia to channel a bit of Daenerys&amp;#039; strength: &amp;quot;Every night the wig comes off, you&amp;#039;re like, &amp;#039;Aww.&amp;#039; I can feel my energy going,&amp;quot; she said. Which makes sense. Hair has the power to do that, doesn&amp;#039;t it? Especially when it looks like this?
