Italian term or phrase: "la rossa incazzata"
"Chissà se mio marito apprezza tutto quello che faccio per lui?" si chiede Luigia, una belle signora dai capelli rossi. [...]
"Quando ero più giovane, tutti mi temevano per il mio brutto carattere, impulsivo, scontroso, aggressivo. Mi chiamavano 'la rossa incazzata'".

"Rossa incazzata" renvoie à l'expression "rosso incazzato", mais en français ça me paraît un peu tiré par les cheveux.
D'avance, merci de votre aide !
