Therefore, it is evident that several names that possibly also deserve to be on the list had to be left out. Names such as Shirley Manson, Lzzy Hale, Simone Simmons, Annie Lennox, Angela Gossow, Gwen Stefani, Floor Jansen, Hayley Williams, Sharon Den Adel, Wendy O. Williams, Maria Brink, or the Brazilians Natacha Cersosimo, Pitty, Dani Nolden, among many others.
