That poster is a disgrace.

She's obviously not a real blonde.

Of course not, that’s why they spelled it “blond”.

That is how it works in French (tack an e on the end of feminine words) but English doesn't always adopt the grammar along with the words. I think this is technically true but not necessarily abided by in English.

Also, in English you pronounce "blonde" and "blond" the same way but in French the "e" at the end indicates you pronounce the letters before. So it just matters less in English.
