'''Legally Blonde 2: Red, White, and Blonde''' is the 2003 sequel to ''Film/LegallyBlonde''. Creator/ReeseWitherspoon returns as Elle Woods.
Harvard lawyer and GirlyGirl extreme Elle Woods is on her way to Washington to pass a new law banning cosmetic testing on animals, after learning that her beloved dog's mother is being used as a tester for cosmetics.
While a financial success, critically this film did not do as well as the first.
!!Tropes:
* ActorAllusion: In the sequel's opening, the girls look at a picture of Elle with Congresswoman Rudd (played by Creator/SallyField) and say "Those are two kickass women. I like them, I really like them" - referencing Sally Field's Oscar acceptance speech.
* AlmightyJanitor: Elle makes friends with one of the doormen, Sid Post. He quickly proves to be an invaluable resource, as his years of manning Congress' doors have given him an excellent inside view on politics.
* BrokenPedestal: Elle greatly looked up to her new boss, Congresswoman Victoria Rudd, [[spoiler:until she discovers that the latter had shot down Bruiser's Bill (that would ban animal testing) in order to keep a valuable campaign donor. Thankfully, Rudd redeems herself at the end.]]
* CampGay: [[spoiler:Bruiser is revealed to be this. He develops an attraction to another male dog, much to the chagrin of that dog's owner. The owner coming to terms with this leads him to show his support for Bruiser's mother being set free. Also, he is seen always wearing pink, and Elle mentions after this revelation that he likes to wear her shoes.]]
* {{Flanderization}}: Elle's super effeminate side dangerously comes up more often in the sequel after having nearly gotten rid of it in the first movie. While pink was her signature color in the first movie, she rarely wears head to toe pink, sticking to fashionable and colorful but still appropriate outfits.
* FunWithAcronyms: The lab is called '''V'''eterinary '''E'''xperimentation '''R'''esearch '''S'''cience '''A'''nd '''C'''ritter '''E'''xploitation. Elle mistakes it for the clothing company Versace.
* GayConservative: Parodied where a senator comes out and states his dog is gay and in love with Bruiser. Everyone in the court reacts to this revelation as if the senator himself came out as gay.
* HardWorkMontage: Elle, when she finally applies herself in studying after the bunny costume debacle.
%%* PluckyOfficeGirl: Elle.
* SequelNonEntity: Vivian neither appears nor get mentions in this film. While Vivian isn't the only character this happens to, she stands out [[spoiler:since she is stated to be Elle's best friend at the end of the first film and all Elle's ''other'' close friends - Margot, Serena, and Paulette - show up.]]
* UnconventionalWeddingDress: In ''Red, White & Blonde'', Elle tries on a traditional white dress but ultimately decides to go with her "signature color" and wears a pink dress for her wedding.
