As they say, there's no such thing as bad publicity. From there, her career took off.

[[folder: Anime and Manga]]
* Mariah from ''[[JojosBizarreAdventure Jojo's Bizarre Adventure]]'' gets many comments from the heroes on her legs.
* ''{{Princess Tutu}}'' highlights the characters' legs, but it's justified in that they're ballet dancers.
* ''Venus Wars'': The [[DumbBlonde bubbly airhead reporter Susan]] in the anime has this in spades. Besides being gorgeous and ''very'' long, her well-endowed gams are a subject of conversation by several male characters, to the point one character suggests she cover them up so the enemy soldiers occupying the city don't pull her over to "search" her. Oh yeah, and she basically doesn't have any other attire besides [[{{Fanservice}} miniskirts]] for most of the movie. And the epilogue focuses on her [[MsFanservice mostly from the hips down, in ''cutoff jeans'']]. Basically she's eye-candy (much needed, in what is initially a rather grim movie).
* The main characters from ''{{Dangaioh}}'' (save for the lone male), are all drawn with very shapely, very long legs which are made all the more prominent because they dress in skintight, revealing [[strike: swimsuits]] spacesuits all the time. The character art makes it even more clear that fanservice was the character designer's predominant concern... Some of it, well, "cheesecake" doesn't begin to describe it. Most seems to be drawn at an angle where we can look straight up their legs, and makes them look even longer, and about half involve them arching their backs and thrusting out their chests like their breasts are slap-fighting with the air. [[{{Fanservice}} Mmmm, fanservilicious!]]
* In ''IchigoMashimaro'', this is one of the things that a drunk Nobue notices about Ana.
* ''{{Kampfer}}'' made up for its (intentional) lack of PantyShot with these, along with ZettaiRyouiki for Shizuku and Natsuru.
* In ''AiKora'', Maeda lusts after [[HotForTeacher Tsubame-sensei's]] lean, streamlined legs.
* ''MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha'': The LadyOfWar Signum has incredibly shapely legs. In fact, her [[TransformationSequence combat outfit]] was specifically designed by her oh-so-GenreSavvy mistress Hayate to show off her legs up to the thighs.
* Mana Fujisaki in ''OnegaiMyMelody'', an athletic young girl who is openly boastful about the length of her legs (and terrified of cuteness... for some reason). When a rival "steals" her legs (and her friend's breasts, and some other traits) with magic she's naturally aghast.
* ''NeonGenesisEvangelion'': [[MsFanservice Misato]] gets a lot of leg focus, especially when exiting a vehicle. Also many low-angle shots tracking her determined marches down the Geofront's hallways.
* Nouhime, from ''SengokuBasara'', has a pretty nice, shapely pair of legs, and isn't shy about showing them off. Especially when she starts shooting at you...
* ''{{Tamayura}}'': Riho, Fuu's [[BigBrotherMentor big sister mentor]], is often depicted showing off her long legs for some reason, even though the show is pretty much devoid of {{fan service}}.
* Tomoyo and Kyou from {{CLANNAD}}. The former is very fond of high kicks, and the latter likes to kick too and even has some delicious Grade A ZettaiRyouki.
* Nanako Misonou from ''OniisamaE''. The series isn't exactly known for its {{fanservice}}, but there's still quite the focus on Nanako's very long and slim legs.
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Comic Books]]
* Caitlin Fairchild of ''{{Gen13}}''. This is Lampshaded repeatedly.
* [[XMen Psylocke]]. Whilst most X-Women are drawn in a manner that emphasizes their breasts, Psylocke's ultra-hotness is much more a product of her legs and butt. But damn, those legs...
* Black Canary in TheDCU. Highlighted by her [[StockingFiller trademark fishnets]].
* Ditto for Zatanna, and frequently lampshaded over in TheDCAU.
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Film]]
* ''Film/GoldenEye'': Xenia Onatopp. [[MurderousThighs And she knows how to use them.]]
* This is parodied in ''[[TheNakedGun The Naked Gun 3]]'' (which has the up the legs shot [[OverlyLongGag repeat]] itself several times).
** And ''TWO'' knees.
* ''PrettyWoman'': Very clearly pointed out by JuliaRoberts' character. Important enough that they got a body double for the legs in the film's poster.
* Parodied in ''HotShots''. "I had them lengthened. Now they go all the way up."
* GoldenAgeOfHollywood musicals literally without number. BusbyBerkeley, in particular, was devoted to this trope.
** As seen in the page picture, Cyd Charisse had legs all the way up to ''there''. And the rest of her was smoking hot too.
* In the movie ''TheGraduate,'' and the poster for it, MrsRobinson shows off her legs. The [[CaptainObvious "Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me"]] scene has become part of the public imagination through PopCulturalOsmosis.
* [[SexySecretary Ulla]] in ''TheProducers'' definitely counts.
* Tony points this out about Elvira in ''Scarface''.
* ''{{Grindhouse}}'' spends an exceptional amount of time showing off its female characters' incredible legs, and in the case of ''DeathProof'', the [[FootFocus feet]] as well. This is especially important to Cherry Darling (who gets a rather awesome replacement) and Butterfly.
* Lili von Shtupp in ''BlazingSaddles'', pointed out by Hedley.
* Marlene Dietrich, whom Lili von Shtupp parodies, shows her gams in almost ever movie of hers. ''WitnessfortheProsecution'' had a special scene written just so Marlene Dietrich could show off her accordion. And her legs, of course.
* 'SpyHard'': Parodies the trope with a long, long trip up some ridiculously long legs.
* Vicky Vale in the 1989 ''Batman'' movie is introduced by showing us her legs sticking out from underneath a newspaper she was reading. Alex Knox comments, "Hello, legs."
* ''ElviraMistressOfTheDark'':
--> "If they ever ask about me, tell them I was more than just a great set of boobs. I was also an incredible pair of legs!"
* ''[[HeroicTrio The Executioners]]'': MaggieCheung's character is introduced with [[http://www.takeshikaneshiro.org/pictures/d/1293-4/TK_Lau+Ching+Wan+and+Maggie+Cheung+Man+Yuk+in+Executioners.jpg this]] pose.
* At least three-quarters of Kristen Wiig's outfits in ''{{Bridesmaids}}'' involve very short skirts or dresses displaying her long, long legs and several lines draw attention to them (usually in a more comedic way but still.)
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Literature]]
* In Louis Sachar's ''Dogs Don't Tell Jokes'', Gary Boone has an attractive teacher named Miss Langley whom he secretly calls "Miss Longlegs". (He accidentally uses the nickname [[DidIJustSayThatOutLoud out loud]] during his comedy routine at the climax of the book, but the audience and Miss Langley take it as a joke.)
* ''TheLongDarkTeaTimeOfTheSoul'': When Kate exits TheAllegedCar, it's noted that she has the kind of legs a film soundtrack editor would feel obliged to put [[{{Sexophone}} a smoky saxophone solo]] against.
* For a male example, see the WheelOfTime series. Whenever a female character comments on a male character's attractiveness, it will usually involve admiring his legs, especially the calves.
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Live Action Television]]
* ''Richard Diamond'': In the 1950s detective show, Diamond's answering service lady Sam (played by MaryTylerMoore) was only seen from the legs down. When she posed for a magazine spread - fully clothed, but allowing viewers to put a face to the legs - she was fired and Roxanne Brooks replaced her.
* Sally on ''ThirdRockFromTheSun''. Subverted in that Dick et al. say they're a ''failing'' of hers [[SoBeautifulItsACurse along with her perky breasts and long flowing locks]], and she agrees. Then Mary tries to cheer her up after a breakup by saying that she's got legs -- and Sally cuts her off, saying "You don't have to rub it in!" It is presumably because Sally is implied to be a rather macho male of the species early in the series.
** Her boyfriend, Don, defends his choice to date her with "Alright, so she's crazy. But she's got legs up to her chin!"
* ''Series/DoctorWho''
** Amy Pond.
*** In the 6th Series premiere, the Doctor codenames River Song as "Mrs. Robinson," Rory as "The Nose," and Amy? [[LampshadeHanging "The Legs."]]
* In ''TheJeffFoxworthyShow'', we get one episode in which the girls — Karen, Jeff's pregnant wife; [=DeeDee=], Wayne's girlfriend and former Louisiana stripper, and Gale, Karen's eternally depressed sister — have a girls' night where they put on make-up and dress up to look cheap. The viewers get treated to a lovely performance in which Karen hides behind a wall and shows nothing but leg in a way that shows she retains extreme flexibility despite pregnancy. Even HollywoodHomely Gale is shown to have some attractive legs. As for [=DeeDee=], she can be summed up by stripper music playing when she appears. "Da na na na * whipcrack* "
* Cerie from ''[[{{Ptitleolsdue4jfzga}} 30 Rock]]'': Her office attire, which usually includes a tiny denim miniskirt, is used for comedic effect as well as {{fanservice}}. The leggy outfits are a distraction to the male characters on the show, and Liz has confronted Cerie about her wardrobe to no avail.
** Also alluded to in the character's short-lived web series [[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eziW18toGyg Video]]]
* Shannon from ''{{Lost}}'' wears an assortment of shorts, skirts and bikinis, and was nicknamed "Sticks" by Sawyer because of her long legs.
* EntertainmentTonight hostess Mary Hart had a special "leg light" under the anchor desk just to show hers off...and, as with many of the RealLife examples, hers were insured.
* ''KeepingUpAppearances'': Despite being in her fifties, Mary Millar who played Rose had an amazing set of legs. Many of the characters even commented on them, with Emmett in particular calling her: "The one with the friendly legs."
* Despite his FanNickname of "Lil' Stumpy", Dean Winchester of ''{{Supernatural}}'' has had a slow pan up his legs at least twice.
* ''TheWestWing'': "I have wit, I have charm, I have brains, I have legs that go all the way down to the floor, my friend."
* Marcia Gay Harden's character on ''{{Damages}}'' spends a fair amount of time leisurely putting on her [[StockingFiller stockings]] after trysts with different men.
* ''GossipGirl'''s Serena van der Woodsen, in keeping with her [[MsFanservice status on the show]], possesses such things and is fully aware of what they're for, thank you very much.

-->Here she comes again, like good medicine\\

Her legs go on and on for days...\\
* HelloProject had a duo consisting of Fujimoto Miki and Matsuura Aya, called [[MeaningfulName GAM]], that was centred on this trope.
* We absolutely must mention ZZTop's "Legs", which is of course both the TropeNamer and the source of the page quote.
* VanHalen's "Drop Dead Legs".

* Former {{WCW}}[=/=]{{WWE}} employee Stacy Keibler was notable for having legs that took up half her height. She would rely on them in the ring as well, using them to choke other Divas by pinning them against the turnbuckle by the throat. In fact, one of her theme songs was a cover of ZZ Top's "Legs" sung by Kid Rock.\\
\\
WhatCouldHaveBeen: "With Legs Like That" was originally intended for Stacy, but since she had left the company by then the theme was instead given to Maria. Stacy's legs were a favorite thing for the DancingWithTheStars judges to praise, since it obviously gave her an advantage in dancing. Well, that and all the years of jazz, tap and ballet training she had, which was arguably how she got those legs to begin with.
* Michelle [=McCool=] after her FaceHeelTurn showed what she'd been hiding under all the tomboy ring attire. Once the LayCool gimmick started off, her legs were on show practically every episode of Smackdown. Layla too since they wore matching outfits a lot of the time.
* There was actually a gimmick match called a "Legs Match" when Gibbons and Hill of ZZ Top themselves hosted Raw. It was just a regular wrestling match but the four ladies involved had to wrestle in short shorts. Two of the divas in it already wrestled in hotpants anyway but that's beside the point.

* In ''CityOfAngels'', the PrivateEyeMonologue's description of Alaura says that "only the floor kept her legs from going on forever." A later scene has her on a chaise longue with her stepson Peter sensuously oiling her bare legs.

* ''StreetFighter''
** Chun-Li has very long legs, but she also has really thick thighs. The thighs may distract, but she still has [[http://fightersfury.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/MvC3Chun.jpg long legs]].
** [[http://www.fightersgeneration.com/characters/elena.html Elena]]. Even [[ExtremityExtremist all her moves]] [[KickChick are kicks]], just to show off her legs.
* Tifa, in addition to being the poster girl for BoobsOfSteel, is this. In one of the many, many (many, many...) ''FinalFantasyVII'' spin-offs, the guy who runs the bar she works at says he's looking for a new bartender -- "With ''big'' breasts and ''long'' legs!" he exclaims. Guess who he hires?
** Rikku from ''FinalFantasyX'' and ''FinalFantasyX2'' also. In every game she appears in she is introduced by a long, loving pan up her very long legs. She seems to flaunt it, too, as she dresses in miniskirts and hotpants wherever she goes, including battle.
** Vanille from ''FinalFantasyXIII'' (notice a pattern forming?) who is also not shy about it. She actually wears a skirt ''shorter'' than Rikku (somehow...) and her promotional pictures feature her stretching out her legs. [[{{Fanservice}} Like, a lot. Like enough to be distracting]].
* In ''JadeEmpire'', if you have Dawn Star in your party when you first meet Black Whirlwind, Whirlwind will make some comments on Dawn Star's legs. Her response? "Would you like to see the damage these legs can inflict firsthand?"
* ''RivalSchools'': [[DeadlyDoctor School nurse]] and fellow KickChick Kyoko Minazuki from the games. She wears a short skirt that shows them off nicely.
* In ''[[BackToTheFuture Back to the Future: The Game]]'', according to Kid Tannen, Edna Strickland has some nice gams. Though we never get to see for ourselves, as she's always wearing a long skirt that goes down to her ankles.

* An unnamed character in ''LackadaisyCats'' was remarked upon as having "gams up to your eyeballs!" Admittedly, this case was a joke panel, meant to demonstrate one character's unfamiliarity with the slang of the era, but considering all that is ever shown of the girl is her legs.

* Cheesecake, of the ''GlobalGuardiansPBEMUniverse'', has the power of hot legs, and she uses it to mentally manipulate weak-willed men. Naturally enough, this is all a part of it.
* Tennyo, of the ''WhateleyUniverse'', has been described several times as having disproportionately long legs given her 5'3" height.
* The idea behind [[http://www.gamingpixie.com/75/all-videos/othervideos/100-subscribers-film-noir-cheesecake-edition-p/ this video]] by TheGamingPixie, which involves a long, black dress and thigh-high stockings put to good use.
* TheNostalgiaCritic is dressed as [[TheLegendOfZelda Link]] in ''SuburbanKnights''. The fact that he's wearing a short tunic with no pants or tights gets a lot of [[FemaleGaze attention]] from the camera, although Doug said later he was in so much pain from the cold that it wasn't worth it.

* Jessica Rabbit from ''WhoFramedRogerRabbit'' is another Disney redhead who has quite the pair. Showcased quite nicely in her brief cameo as a park ranger in the short ''Trail Mix-Up''.
* Marge in ''TheSimpsons'', when she and Homer get "frisky". This is explicitly mentioned by Lenny in one episode.
--->"She's got legs from here to yah-yah!"
* On an episode of ''AmericanDragonJakeLong'', Jake's [[TokenBlack sassy black friend]] becomes a cheerleader. When her friends see her in a revealing miniskirt for the first time ''[[DistractedByTheSexy this]]'' is their reaction. One of them goes on to talk about her legs for a while afterward, questioning why she never showed off her legs before since they're apparently '''hawt'''.
* In "TheGreatMouseDetective" Miss Kitty has quite a pair. [[http://ospreygraphix.com/Screen%20Shots/GMD/Miss-kitty/Miss-Kitty259.jpg See for yourself.]] WOW!
* In ''FindingNemo'', a female patient seen in the dentist's waiting room was unintentionally revealed to have long, thin legs near the end of the fullscreen version, during the scene where she is entering the waiting room and is mistaken by the fish for Darla just right after they bash the Aquascum. We still see her legs during her second and third appearances in the original widescreen version, however, but she was sitting.
* Superman:TheAnimatedSeries gives us Mercy Graves, Lex Luthor's [[BodyguardBabes bodyguard/chauffeur]]. She wears a ridiculously short dress [[YourMilageMayVary (or a tight shirt with tight pants)]] that shows off her legs to the point where it isn't even funny! [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSqI69PT0C4&feature=related From all the high kicks and other action she gets]], you'd expect a PantyShot or two, [[MagicSkirt guess what never happens?]]
