Smart Bitches Trashy Books | All of the romance, none of the bullshit.

Damn, that is a hawt photo of Jake G. Almost makes me consider him for my list, which I now feel I need to compose…

*snort* Okay—coffee through the nose on an oily Depp. Sososo true.

It must have something to do with age and/or cultural specificity but I only knew three of these. And of those the only one I’d be remotely interested in is Johnny Depp. I doubt I could come with 10.

Here’s goes after some thought
Geroge Clooney (boringly predictable I know and of course Miss Snark deserves him)
Willem Dafoe
Alan Rickman
Harvey Keitel
Cate Blanchette
David Wenham (Oz actor, Faramir in LOTR but much sexier than that)
Anthony LaPaglia (in Lantana)
Catherine Zeta Jones
Bruce Springsteen (sentimental favourite)

Can’t come up with another two. How pathetic is that?

Johnny Depp is definately on my list. And Beck is such a cutie, and a whacko. So my type.

In addition: (See, a lot of mine are for the moment. I tend to be interested in characters rather than people in their entirety. I’m fickle like that)

Ryan Phillipe

Jason Patric. In The Lost Boys. Those EYES. Those LIPS. I so wanted to look like Star, too.

Stuart Townsend as he was in Queen of the Damned.

Zakk Wylde - So he’s married with like a hundred kids. So what?

Jason Issacs, as he looks playing Lucius Malfoy. I’m freaky like that.

Criss Angel, the magician. Oh, baby.

Nick Rhodes of Duran Duran. He STILL looks fine. I just saw them on tour last year, and they were awesome. Simon used to be my boy, but he did not age well. Back in the day, though… (fights fangirl squeal)

And the final proof of my Generation X status: Morten Harket of A-Ha. Still very hot.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who can’t stand David Caruso. His gravelly, trying-too-hard-to-be-sexy voice gets me like fingernails on chalkboard.

Eric Bana- my fav is him as Hoot in Blackhawk Down

Jason Statham - yowzaa whatta accent, whatta bod- what’s not to like

Gerard Butler - another yummy accent to go with a gorgeous pair of eyes

Ben Browder - John Crichton of Farside- best sense o’ humor ever- I mean EVER

The guy who plays Jin on Lost - those eyes… those cheekbones

Patrick Stewart - but he must be reciting Shakespearian sonnets as we shag

Milla Jovavich- hot chick who kicks ass

Mark Decasscus - have you seen him as Mani in Brotherhood of the Wolf?  (yeah, well you should cuz he’s in it and it’s a cool flick)

Monica Belluci- cuz face it, she is one amazingly beautiful woman

Sean Patrick Flanery- my God, did you see him on rhe cover of Playgirl? I almost didn’t recognize him he looked so grown up

yummy… all of them… and these are just a few of my flavors of the month although Eric is ALWAYS on the list

I agree on the Depp and Jake Gyllenhaal, and ESPECIALLY on Jonathan Togo, who as Ryan Wolfe is a refreshing break from Horatio “Captain Obvious” Caine. I’m at a loss as to why they’d put him in the “will-he-or-won’t-he-go-blind” scenario, it echoes a bit too strongly of Vegas’ Grissom’s hearing problem.

On the guy list, I tend to go for skinny, geeky, sweet guys:

Patrick Dempsey
Cillian Murphy (evil dudes in both Batman Begins and Red Eye)
Liam Neeson (yes, I have an Irish fetish)
Topher Grace
Tobey Maguire (both in Spider-man 3!0
Scott Speedman
Elijah Wood
And of course, Jonathan Togo. ^_^

That pic of Jake G. looks like an 80s Calvin Klein ad; that is to say, slightly wrong in illegal, sacrilegious ways.  What’s wrong with you people???  Do you not see the old school allure of Matt Damon?  What about Josh Hartnett and his delicious squinty eyes?  Naturally I must have Don Cheadle for my very own and Morgan Freeman with his sexy older guy pierced ear could read anything to me and I’d probably have an orgasm.  Sadly I’m finding a new sexiness to George Clooney that I categorically did not see during his ER days.  He’s 45-ish and suddenly so interesting and therefore sexy to me.  And to be perfectly honest, Will Smith.  I know, I know, what the fuck am I thinking, but all you bitches need to do is watch the first 5 minutes of “I, Robot” to know what I’m talking about.  The man used to be goofy, but somehow, a pair of black boxer/jockey shorts and a shower scene makes him FINE.  Do you hear me?  FINE.

I hardly know any of the Gen X list.  As a Baby Boomer, my list says two things, age doesn’t matter (there’s a 46 year range) and I tend to be a sucker for an accent.  In no particular order:

Brendan Shanahan (hockey player, Detroit Red Wings)
Colin Farrell
Colin Firth
Michael Vartan
Pierce Brosnan
Liam Neeson
Sean Connery
Gerard Butler
Sam Elliott
Patrick Stewart

1. Ewan McGregor - I love him.  He’s my number one celebrity crush.

2. Charlie Hunnam - Another Brit-boy I find myself lusting after.  Go see Green Street Hooligans and rent the tv series Undeclared.

3. Jake Gyllenhaal - Who doesn’t love him?  It’s the beautiful eyes that get me every time.

Aw, I don’t feel so bad about accidentally posting that Jake G picture in here now. 

Good list!  I think Valentine’s Day is sparking many hunk pictures.  Jill Monroe is giving us a hunk a day and you just have to trot over to Gena Showalter’s blog to see the nice little gift I sent her.  heh heh

Ewan McGregor - I love him.  He’s my number one celebrity crush.

Me too!  In fact, I’m having a devil of a time thinking beyond Ewan in order to get anywhere near 10 people…

1. Daniel Day-Lewis, who achieved Hottest Romantic-Action Star Damn! That’s His Own Hair-dom in Last of the Mohicans.

2. Yeah, all right. Ewan McGregor.

3. Jonathan Rhys Meyers. Subject of my first mid-life crisis when I found out he’d only been 19 when Velvet Goldmine was shot. But complicated calculations prove unequivocally that I am NOT old enough to be his mother.

4. Qui-Gon Jinn. No, not Liam Neeson, who is perfectly fine, but looks like an oversized professor in real life. But put him in a flowing cloak and leather Jedi boots and...hell, if the hair had been real, he’d be up there with DDL.

5. Ioan Gruffudd. Made Hornblower great, and even almost redeemed King Arthur.

6. Xena, Warrior Princess. Again, it’s the character, not the actor. And the boots.

7. Rutger Hauer. Okay, Rutger pre-1990, but he was daaaaaaamn hot.

8. Drew Barrymore, because she’s damn cute. And she giggles.

9. & 10. Candy and Sarah, for obvious reasons that have nothing to do with wanting my book to move up a few places in the “to be reviewed” stack. Honest.

My hot list? Wow! Lots of names coming up and quite a few date me. Here goes and in no particular order:

Viggo Mortenson - as the King, he’s way odd as a person.

John Kay of Steppenwolf - My 15-yr old hormones went nuclear while watching him sing “Easy Evil” one lonely Saturday night.

Johnny Depp - Have you looked at his eyes?

How’s this for odd - Craig Fergusson of the Late, Late Show - he cracks a whip and knows everything!

The guy who plays Jin on Lost - those eyes… those cheekbones - Daniel Dae Kim.

Anthony Michael Head - Buffy’s watcher - yummy!

The kid who plays Superboy/man on Smallville even though I don’t watch the show because it makes my stomach churn.

George Eads - The one with the shoulders on CSI.

Worf’s not bad either.

Aidin Quinn’s butt.

I almost forgot about David Wenham! As Faramir and in ‘Better than Sex.’

Colin Firth.

No women that I can think of. THis list was longer than I expected it to be.

An opportunity to put then hot women’s pix on my blog? I am sooo up for this.

But first, I want to know what plans desertwillow has for Aidan Quinn’s butt.

BTW, Candy—Beck? Usually, I can see what women see in a cute guy, but Beck???

Um, ten.

What you have to do to make that show (CSI: Miami) enjoyable is to play the David Caruso drinking game: http://www.laist.com/archives/2006/01/31/the_david_caruso_drinking_game.php It makes the times between Mr. Wolfe’s appearances much more tolerable.

Oh yes Andy Lau is hot stuff, but you need a sprinkling of of J-rock goodness to top off that treat. ^_^
Tasty Eyecandy

CANDY - Brilliant Post, you insane person.

That picture of Andy Lau reminds me of the SICK, DEMENTED, PERVERTED, LUSTFUL, AGONIZED, HEARTWRENCHING fantasies I used to have about Carlos, from the Taiwanese Wiggles (the Wiggles is an Australian children’s show, which is now being franchized around Asia).

Honestly.  I met him in person and I went WEAK IN THE KNEES. Truly.  Weak like a heroine on a romance cover.  There were cameras around, too, because it was an opening for a new Toys R Us in Taiwan. They probably play the clip of me on one of those late night Chinese “laugh at the foreigners” TV shows.

That man is TOO HOT for children’s TV. 

P.S. Kezia - Anthony LaPagia in Lantana YES, ME TOO!!

And Harvey Keitel in Holy Smoke (I would play the Kate Winslet part in that scenario)

Stewart Finlay-McLennan
Brent Spiner
Aiden Quinn
Chris Noth
Patrick Dempsey
Goran Visnjic

*Sigh* I’m old.  Some of my faves are dead now.  But I’m going to give it a shot:

Colin Firth
Ioan Gruffudd
Viggo Mortenson
Timothy Dalton (Jane Eyre)
Rutger Hauer (Ladyhawke and Blade Runner era)
Oded Fehr
Pierce Brosnan
Jean-Marc Barr
Andy Lau

and my darling husband, of course.

I believe I’ve already made my opinion on this matter perfectly clear.

Oh my God. I broke the SmartBitches board.

I am so sorry. (Now I’ll have to pay for it.)

That’s what I get with messing around with Photobucket when I don’t really understand its powers.

Um, that guy up there who can’t keep his pants on? So. Male. Whore.

My list is up, FWIW.

>> I want to know what plans desertwillow has for Aidan Quinn’s butt. <<

Well, um, the usual things...:-))

Hey, I forgot all about Adrian Paul (and his butt) can I swap a CSI guy for him? They are way over represented. (This is fun. I had a very weird week with unpleasantness. I’m feeling better now, Thank you Bitches)

Bless you, sherryfair.  To paraphrase Ben Frankin, that picture proves there is a God and he wants us to be happy.

And I must say that Jake gives all the argument men should ever need as to why they don’t necessarily need to wax their chests to be teh hawt.  Me-Ow.

I’ll be in my bunk....

Ok I here is my list:
Authors (yes I’m a geek)

Sebastian Junger
Paul Auster
John Irving
and my absolute favorite:
Neil Gaiman

Actors:
Clive Owen
Matthew MacFayden
Rosamund Pike
(so I like the Brits, sue me)

I forgot about Goran. Absolutely.

This weekend I read an article about Charlotte Rampling. I have to add her to my list. I hope I look like that at 60.

Can I bring them all together in a fabulous beach house on the coast of Amafali?
1.My own hubby
2.Patrick Fitzgerald
3.Alessandro del Piero
4.Paulo Maldini
5.Didier Drogba
6.StarSailor
7.Andy Lau
8.Sean Penn
9.Spike
10.Richard Gere

Ah, the first 7 are easy because I did them before over here. As I’m in the UK, I have provided helpful links for the ‘unlikely to have a global fanbase’ people.

1. Johnny Depp

2. James Marsters
except only if it were Spike

3. Orson Welles
the young Orson Welles - circa 1940.

4. David Tennant
in character | actor
which is embarassing not only as he’s the new Doctor Who which thus undermines my “female Who fans don’t fancy the Doctor” stance but because there’s only two degrees of seperation.
Americans may recognise him as as the Scottish detective in Viva Blackpool.

5. Jayne Middlemiss.
Yes, Celeb Love Island was dire but I’ve had a crush on her for about ten years.

6. Zhang Ziyi.
So beautiful.

7. Goran Visnjic.
A man so beautiful a recent episode of ER caused me to want Luka’s babies.

8. John Simm
I fell for him when he played Raskolnikov in Crime & Punishment, and have watched everything he’s been in since.

9. Ewan McGregor
There’s nothing light about his sabre.

10. Dylan Moran
He’s no Johnny Depp in looks, but I so, so would. In fact, his Bernard Black character is very like my ex.

OMG, I forgot to put Nathan Fillon on my list!  How could I forget Captain Mal!

Ah well, I guess my dear husband will have to sit this one out.

I thought I was the only person who had a serious thing for Rutger Hauer-- back a ways, tho.  My hubby even looks a little like he did-- then.  He looks a bit like Sean Penn, too.  Also hot.

Oh, I have a way wicked nekkid picture of Adrian Paul somewhere, but I can’t share it here.  (grin)

Damn! How could I forget Charlotte Rampling? I first saw her in Zardoz, loved her in Angel Heart. I haven’t seen her lately, but if that’s a recent photo, she’s still a hottie.

I’m horrible at this.  It’s not looks so much as, well… something else.  Plus, my hubby’s so hot that everyone else pales in comparison....  But he’s been gone for a week & will be gone for another, and since I’m getting a wee bit desperate:

Oh, yes.  Gaiman would be on the list.  Have you seen a pic of him in glasses? 

And I’d do Jason Statham or Johnny Depp, sure, if they begged. 

7 more?  God, this is tough. 

If I could resurrect Freddie Mercury, I’d be willing to get a sex change.

Nathan Fillion would do in a pinch.

Samuel L. Jackson is a little old, but hot anyway.

Sheesh.  4 more. 

Okay.  Guilty pleasure:  Vin Diesel.

Alexis Denisof.

Michael Weatherly.

And if necessary, I’d go gay for Charlize Theron. 

Bet it’s not a coincidence that the word verification is “wife74”.

Wait, I didn’t realize we could include cast members from Joss Whedon projects.  Since that is the case and since there so much FUCKING SNOW ON THE GROUND that all I can do is sit at my computer and ruminate on cute boys (I could write, but nah), I’d like to co-sign on Spike, Captain Mal, and Wesley (the later years when he was working the hell out of the nerd turned bad ass look).

Also I’m going to include John Cusack.  I preferred an 80s, “Say Anything” John Cusack, but he’s managed to maintain his quirky cuteness.  Kit Oxendine of my 1980-something high school graduating class.  At 17 that boy was HOT HOT HOT.  Now, not so much.  Balding I think.  Perhaps a pot belly.

I would say Matt Dillion to conclude my 80s theme, but after seeing “Crash,” he’s just not the dark, brooding boy I used to know and salivate over.  He molested Thandie Newton for crissake.

Argh! I forgot Captain Tightpants as well!

And John Cusack. I can’t believe I forgot the Cusack. Although it’s not so much a shag thing with him as a hug to tell him it’s alright, then shag, then more hugging.

They’ll have to replace Orson Welles and...er...Zhang Ziyi. Damnit.

And looking like a male whore is ... bad, Doug? C’mon, Jake G. is really a nice Jewish boy. Who happens to look really good in blue denim shirts.

Now I feel like I should add some serious historical figures as well.

Yes, of course, Johnny Depp, but not always. (I sat through “Pirates of the Caribbean” just for him. And will probably do it again. All the while wondering how any female in her right mind would even give Orlando Bloom a second glance, with Depp around.)

Alain Delon, during his youth. Somewhere between “Purple Noon” and “The Leopard.”

Paul Newman, for about a 20-year span. Talk about aging well, like a fine cabernet.

Whoever said the young Orson Welles ... I like your way of thinking.
Yes, most definitely.

For some reason, I never really felt Jake G. was all that irresistible until Brokeback—now, though, I think he acted and smoked Heath Ledger off the screen (anyone else bugged by the Heath Ledger mouth pursing?).

John Cusak used to be on my list until that movie with Diane Lane last year—the unnaturally dark hair did something to me, and it wasn’t good.

I’d also go for:

Ian McShane in “Deadwood” mode

Harvey Keitel in “The Piano” mode

Matthew McConaughey in any mode

Robert Redford in “The Way We Were” mode

Laurence Fishburne in “Othello” mode

Johnny Depp anytime, anywhere, any mode

I had a big crush on Dustin Hoffman after the first time I watched “All The President’s Men” but that’s over

James Spader—the man just keeps getting sexier and sexier, IMO

I’m sure there are more, but my mind is blanking at the thought of just these boinkables that I think that’s enough.

Now I feel like I should add some serious historical figures as well.

LOL, Sherry!  I’ve got visions of a Smithsonian exhibition!

Oh, and I forgot to add Thierry Lhermitte to my list—even old this guy is smokin’

Oh, and Owen Wilson, too.

Sidney Poitier

Oh, and how could I forget Ralph Fiennes and Christopher Eccleston . . . and Colin Firth

YES to boinkable authors! Neil Gaiman and Alex Garland top the list like ROOOOOOWWWRRR!

Old dudes whom I’d totally have shagged in their salad days:

Alain Delon

Harrison Ford

Paul Newman

And sherryfair, bless you for that picture of Jake (and for the two you e-mailed me--sorry I never e-mailed you back to thank them because, well, the pictures were...distracting). He can male-whore all over me any time. Oh good god. I think I need to go lie down. Um. Yes. Hooray for hot nice Jewish boys! (I’m sure Sarah can attest to their appeal, too, tee hee.)

1. Jake Gyllenhaal - that pic alone would garner him a place on my list. 
2. Daniel Dae Kim
3. Colin Firth - Mr. Darcy… sigh.
4. John Cusack
5. David Beckham
6. Fredrik Ljungberg - continuing with the soccer theme. Someone else who looks good in their Calvin Kleins.
7. Rivers Cuomo - There’s something about those glasses…
8. Vince Vaughn - he’s funny and he seemed like a pretty good dancer in Wedding Crashers.
9. Victor Garber - the spydad on Alias. 
10. Lena Olin - Victor’s duplicitous TV wife.  I’d love to look like that at 50. Or you know, now.

As a newbie to this site I just wanted to add how much I’m enjoying it so far!

Andy Lau over a younger brooding Chow Yun Fatt, really?

I keep pestering my wife with these lists, and all I get is, “No. Nope. Like him as an actor, don’t want to see him naked. Uh-uh. Ew.”

Her only two picks, so far—and they don’t appear on anyone’s list:

Dolph Lundgren (because he used to be a physics grad student)

David Duchovny (because he’s smart and funny).

Really, I’m shocked, shocked, that none of y’all picked Duchovny. The guy is off the air for two or three years, and suddenly he falls off everyone’s radar.

Ok I’ve been thinking about this all day, and I think I can stand by my list.

Gabriel Byrne - Beautiful.

Johnny Depp - I liked him as a bad boy but I find I love him as a devoted family man.

Neil Gaiman - when I wasn’t that into Anansi days I could just turn to the back and gaze into his beautiful eyes.  It kept me going.

Romell Regulacion - Has this band Razed in Black, goth, knows he’s beautiful, uses it against me!  So so wrong.

Jonathan Rhys Meyers - I sat through that bad elvis movie for this man.  Ok I’ll be honest, I mostly tivoed towards the dancing scenes.

Jet Li - That man can move, and hes so cute and small.  I want him in my bed.

John Cusack - John and I go way back, once a long time ago he held up a stereo to my window and played the most beautiful song…

Maggie Gyllenhaal - Fell in love with her in the Secretary.

Gael Garcia Bernal - Seriously, noone?  Are you sure?

James Marsters - I get to call him Spike.  His band was playing at some con in Atlanta last year, and for some last minute reason I couldn’t go. Noooo.

< >>

Ohmygod! Duchovny!  I forgot all about Mitch Pileggi!!!

I thought of a woman - Kathleen Turner in Body Heat.

I was ready to be horrified by your pix after your line about small, skinny and goofy but must admit I agreed with a few, namely Jake, Ryan, Johnny and Jason.

On top of those four above (and I do literally mean on top, like a great big pile up) I would add:

Viggo, Hugh Jackman, Vin Diesel, Jet Li, Denzel and Gary Dourdan.

hmmmm...Gary

Doug, your wife mentioned Dolph Lungren.  She’s got damn good taste.  I think he was probably my first crush.  I had a picture of him (From Rocky) taped to my binder in Grade 8.  I saw some recent piece o’ crap movie on tv with him, and you know what, that man is STILL beautiful. 

World’s best bone structure.

What?! No one mentioned Avery Brooks? That voice… That shaved head…

I’ll totally geek out here and do a Sci-Fi list:
Avery Brooks
Michael Dorn
Nathan Fillon
Terry Farrell
Cirroc Lofton
Alan Tudyk
Morena Baccarin
Sean Maher
Monica Bellucci
Carrie-Anne Moss

Yummy.

(Johnny Depp is so incredibly hot he transcends the list)

Here’s my current crush list:

Jake Gyllenhaal
Eric Szmanda of CSI (I love my Greg Sanders).
Wentworth Miller
Christian Campbell (and he can sing...anyone see Reefer Madness: The Musical?)
Steve Sandvoss (Google him, seriously.)
Topher Grace
Josh Charles
Clive Owen
Jason O’Mara
Cyrille Thouvenin (French actor, Google him, too, trust me)

weee! Posting mine tomorrow.

I’m reading this and all I want to do is shout names randomly while drooling.

Jason Statham!!!

Rutger Hauer!!!

Ioan Gruffyd!!! (sp?)

Aidan Quin!!!!

Vin Diesel!!! (but only when being a BAd Boy...)

Vince Vaughn!!!

Jet Li!!!

And may I add James Purefoy of Rome fame?

Actually, did I miss it, or has no-one mentioned Ryan Reynolds yet?  How is this possible???

I can’t think of my own list. You all have my knees weak from reading yours.

Gael Garcia Bernal - yes, absolutely. And while we’re in the hot Latin male category, I must confess to a fascination with Benicio del Toro. Just want to hug and kiss that man until he’s all better.

John Irving—hot, smart, and that VOICE! Have any of you ever been to one of his readings? OMG. Go.

Johnny Depp—the modern reformed rake. Gotta love him.

OK. My brain is literally short-circuiting. All I want to do is read everyone else’s lists and swoon.

“Steve Sandvoss (Google him, seriously.)”

Seriously is right!

In honor of the Olympics I also want to include Jeremy Bloom and Bode Miller in my list.  There’s probably other list-worthy Olympians I’m forgetting here…

WAIT A MINUTE!! Nobody’s mentioned Clive Owen!!  Or is he just so obvious that we don’t need to put him on our lists.  I guess it’s just assumed we’d all shag him retarded if given half a chance..

I went to sleep last night trying to think of who I would boot off my list for James Spader, there must be someone…

Ok crap Ryan Reynolds too, I’m in overload!!

I can’t just stick to 10, man.

I’m so glad someone else mentioned Eric Szmanda! Greg! Give us more Greg! Kill off that weird European chick that everyone hates on CSI, and get him more screentime!

I have to add more, I’m sorry. Blame God, if you must, for making so many good-looking individuals:

Steve Carrell (I dunno why, but I love his nose....)

Jason Lee (with or without the ‘stache)

Mark Ruffalo! No one’s mentioned Mark Ruffalo! Rhymes with buffalo, people!

Chris Noth

Paul Rudd

TR Knight (George from “Grey’s Anatomy")

Fred Armisen from SNL

Christian Bale (Duh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh BATMAN!)

Rinda?  Where’s the nekkid picture of Adrian Paul? 

Hah!  I don’t believe you have one!  Maybe you’d better prove it!

When my boys were small and watched Highlander they’d call out, “He’s taking off his shirt again!” and I would come out and watch tv for a few moments, then go back to work.

They did the same thing for the Soloflex ads: “Your ad is on!”

It’s wise sons who know their own mother.

Eww, David Caruso.  I can just see him telling the director “Hey, why don’t I stand with my hands on my hips side-facing the camera while I deliver my line looking over the top of my sunglasses?” And the director says “Again?  Okay, whatever.”

I’ve got to agree with Duchovny, Cusack, Firth and Topher Grace.  And I’ll add Joshua Jackson and Ari Hest.

I have to admit that David Caruso does have a sexy voice, probably to compensate for his appearance, which is akin to a puppet with popsicle sticks for limbs and a shrived old potato for a head with some ginger-coloured mold on it.
If he had better lines to say, he’d be more interesting.

If we’re ranging into hot voice terroritory, though: Ron Perlman. He could melt butter with his voice from 20 yards away, but he’d have to be in full “Beauty and the Beast” or “Hellboy” makeup, first.

Lots of repeats, and a few new ones:

*Goran Visnjic - he should have a HUGE movie career, the man is gorgeous

*Jason Behr - uh, didn’t anyone else lust over this guy on “Roswell”?  He is bee-yoo-tee-ful

*the 80s Mel Gibson - have you seen this man in “The Bounty”?

*Daniel-Day Lewis in “The Last of the Mohicans” only

*Johnny Depp - especially in “Edward Scissorhands”

*John Cusack - only in teenage/college-type flicks like “Say Anything”

*Hugh Jackman

*Harrison Ford in the 70s/80s/early 90s (now he’s starting to look like somebody’s granddad, and he is losing his stud-ness)

*River Phoenix (oh, that he survived his drug overdose)

*Kiefer Sutherland in “24” mode only, please

Gawd, all this yummy goodness in one spot? I’m not sure I can come up with ten either, but I’ll try--

in no particular order:

Orlando Bloom (yeah, a girl can like a younger man, no?)
Adrian Paul
Brendan Fraser
Josh Harnett
Eric Bana (the more I look, the more I like)
Dean Roland (latest *swoon*)(and Ed, too.. I could do a Roland brother Sandwich) (from Collective Soul)

um....um.....um.....

okay, twist my arm, I’ll say Johnny Depp. But that’s really about it.

You bitches have taken all my men! I’m in for pretty much every guy named on this list (but most esp. Oded Fehr; God he’s hot, and TALL!).

To add a few I think you’ve missed:

Clancy Brown (that fricken voice!)

Tyron Leitso (the ever adorable Eric from Wonderfalls)

Gary Dourdan (Warrick Brown on CSI)

Sean Bean (God I love that Yorkshire accent!)

and how could we forget Cary Grant?

Wesley (the later years when he was working the hell out of the nerd turned bad ass look)

The Wesley on my list would be from the beginning of season 4...that scene in Deep Down where you find he has Justine in the closet?  Guh.  I think my ovaries swelled up to twice their normal size.  (Gotta have a bad boy on the list to keep it well-rounded.)

And this is completely off topic but I can’t help myself: why doesn’t that man have a job?  He’s so flexible as an actor.

Damn, You guys have some good ones.  I have to agree with the following:
Gerard Butler (*sigh*), Liam Neeson, Sam Elliot, Viggo Mortenson, Oded Fehr, Clive Owen, John Cusak, and Matthew McConaughey. 

The men that haven’t gotten enough attention on these lists:
Jason O’Mara and Raul Bova.  Jay-sus they’re yummy!

Gari

Course, there’s also Mark Harmon, Hugh Laurie, Anderson Cooper, Jeremy Piven (he’s funny, ok?), Tim McGraw, Patrick Dempsey, John F. Kennedy Jr., Joaquin Phoenix..... the list can go on for-eva!

Does anyone remember that awful show Temptation Island? The Hubby and I came up with a fabulous idea: Celebrity Temptation Island. We chose our celebrity “tempters” (or is it temptors?) and compared notes as to why or why not we included certain celebs. We still update our lists from time to time, and when someone goes especially bad (a la Tom Cruise) they are “off the island”. My current list is composed of:

Hugh Jackman
Takeshi Kaneshiro
Ioan Gruffudd
Christian Bale
Karl Urban
Orlando Bloom
Josh Duhamel
Brad Pitt (I know, obvious)
Jake Gyllenhall
Tom Welling
Keanu Reeves (Neo only, please!)

That’s 11, but hey, it’s my island!

ShuzLuva--my idea for a reality show was simpler: strand me on an island with my Top Ten, and call it “Who CARES if I Survive?”

Mmm Cary Grant and Toshiro Mifune.  10 is not even close to enough.  Huge girl crush on Ingrid Bergman in Casablanca, now that I’m thinking about the classics.

Hmmm… concentrating on some truly thigh-melting people I haven’t seen on this list, bearing in mind I’m not a fan of scrawny (male or female):
Mia Tyler (Liv’s sister)
Val Kilmer
Jennifer Connolly
David Boreanaz (y’all can have Spike & Wesley, gimme Angel!)
Janeane Garofalo (who gets to play me in the movie of my life)
Stephen King
Angelina Jolie (when she was a young, fleshier model - Growr!)
Kevin Smith (Silent Bob, mmmmm...)
Nia Vardalos
Kevin Kline

And I’d so be all about Ducovney, Jason Lee, Vince Vaughan, and John Cusack, too, but their calendars looked a little busy…

YES to Cary Grant and Harrison Ford (as Indiana Jones or Han Solo). And Sean Bean. And Sting (from The Police days). And Hugh Jackman.

Hugh Laurie?  Anyone?

I must also confess my inexplicible urge to watch Keanu Reeves in almost anything.  I am at a loss to explain why.

Ok, yes, Hugh Laurie in “House” is fantastic. Very scruffy and injured to the depths of his soul. Sigh.

I, too, feel compelled to watch Keanu in all of his movies. Please help me understand myself. And that one movie, “Chain Reaction”?  I really, really like it. What is my problem?

ShuzLuva - there was actually a series called ‘Celebrity Love Island’ here in the UK last year, in which six female and six male D-list celebrities were on an idyllic south seas island...My lovely Jayne Middlemiss was on it, so I watched.

Hugh Laurie confuses me. I grew up watching him in Blackadder, Fry & Laurie, Jeeves & Wooster etc etc. Heck, I even chose my bank when I was sixteen partially because it was advertised by Fry & Laurie. So it’s taken a long time to get used to him with an American accent and stubble. I can see why he’s attractive to people, but I can’t quite escape the “...but it’s Hugh Laurie” thought.

Here’s the list...keeping in mind that there are probably others who would bump some of these off, if only I had thought of them first.

1.  Ioan Gruffydd
2.  Karl Urban
3.  Eric Bana
4.  Nathan Fillion
5.  Goran Visnjic
6.  Don Cheadle
7.  Patrick Stewart...but only if he wears the Cpt. Picard uniform and quotes Shakespeare and John Donne to me.
8.  Javier Bardem...because not only does he look good, he can hablame in espanish, which makes my heart go pitter pat.
9.  Juliette Binoche
10.  Daniel Day Kim & Naveen Andrews & Matthew Fox...I’m counting them all as one, since they fall under my “Lost” obsession.

Ahem. In case anyone requires a little themed inspiration: http://www.hotolympians.com/

And a few other suggestions to throw into the mix:

Jack Nicholson in his “Easy Rider” era.
Freddie Ljunberg. Ahhh Freddie.
John Malkovich
Spike Spiegel of Cowboy Bebop fame. (It’s not weird to fancy cartoons, really).

I am also confused by Hugh Laurie in “House”, and Dylan Moran is indeed oddly attractive.

And you may wish to make your selection from any one of these handsome creatures:

Okey-doke. Nose --> grindstone

Oh, EAP, yes indeed to Spike Spiegel. So tall. So skinny. So smart-alecky. So kung-fu tasty. So hot.

So very, very NOT REAL.

Oh, and speaking of Hot Olympians: Swimming has always been my favorite eye candy event, mostly because I love slim, lean men, and a swimmer’s build is just about my ideal male body. During the 2004 Summer Olympics, I was idly watching the swimming events when I caught sight of Michael Phelps. I yelped out loud, turned to the Very Tall Husband and said “Holy crap, he could be your younger brother!”

Except the VTH is actually even hotter than Phelps. Not as muscular, but his face is is a lot prettier. And taller, of course--don’t know how tall Phelps is, but I doubt he’s 6’8”.

Anyway, the next day at work, some his co-workers were telling the VTH the very same thing.

In no particular order…

Joaquin Phoenix, because INTENSITY is sexy.
Vincent D’Onofrio, because BIG and WEIRD are sexy.
Jon Stewart, because SMART and FUNNY are sexy.
Paul Newman, because BEAUTIFUL is sexy.
Bradley Whitford, because...again...SMART and FUNNY are sexy.
John Cusack, because MIDLY NEUROTIC is sexy.
Alan Rickman, because EXPERIENCE is sexy.
Joseph Fiennes, because TALENT is sexy.
Goran Visnjic, because the ACCENT is sexy.
George Clooney, because PRETTY and POLITICAL are sexy.

Candy you are so right!  Swimmers have fantastic bodies and Michael’s is fantastic!  I lusted after this boy all during the Olympics.  Damn, thanks for the memory - now I’ve got to go google some pics of him.  Yum

Hmmm..... in no particular order

Sean Connery
Humphrey Bogart
Jamie Bamber (’Apollo’)
Katee Sackhoff (’Starbuck’)
Joseph Fiennes

Julius Caesar and Vercingetorix

Ok, I know this topic has been so over with for quite awhile now, but I saw a commercial for “Prison Break” the other day, and realized I had completely left WENTWORTH MILLER off my list!

I am now claiming him.  He has the most intense, sexy stare ever. Sets me to a-shiverin’ every time he comes on the screen. And something about an innocent man in prison garb--GROWL!

I’ve just found this amazing blog of yours and I already love it!! Specially Sarah’s spelling which is very simillar to mine if u translate it to portuguese, swearing in non-mother languages doesn’t come as natural as u want it to, i’ve tried…
Anyway the reason I’m writing my comment in this post is most peculiar, apart from me loving dork, skinny and goofy celebrities also… Andy Lau is HOT HOT HOT³! *___________*
Imagine my surpise at seeing two of the things i love most in the SAME website: Romance books reviews + And Lau/Super HOT Asian Celebrity!
It’s a dream come true! Now i know anything is possible. *crying of happiness*
