C'mon, I know about your thing for Kelly Osbourne.
Nice list Ms Cali. Especially the movie actors. Oh and I agree about Teddy Dunn. He didn't actually have to take the same meds as his character.

C'mon, I know about your thing for Kelly Osbourne. Thanks a lot, Ann. I thought I made it perfectly clear that that was between you and me. I guess you've just proven that there ARE wainches in Australia. At least you didn't reveal my Kathy Bates secret. OOPS! |

Here's a question - why are females more apt to have crushes on guys that aren't all that physically appealing whereas the same usually doesn't hold true for guys?
For example, several women find Sean Connery to be "sexy." When I ask why they respond, "That accent! That charm!" So? Does that really make you want to see him with his shirt off?
Judi Dench has an accent too, but you'll never see me drooling over the old bag.

I'm not being a smart aleck here Johnny - but to not beat around the boosh on the issue, it's quite simple:
Because girls think a little bit more with their heads and less with their sex drive when compared to men.

Yeah, cute try. An accent still relates to Sean Connery's sex appeal. If he was just an old man with saggy old man boobs with a redneck (rather than a distinguished British) accent then he could be the nicest old man in the world and the ladies wouldn't give him the time of day. Unless he was rich. |

Hmmmm... I seem to recall a few British beauties on your list, Johnny...
With all due respect to both you and Kate Winslet, she's got a good 30 lbs. on your average Hollywood starlet - are you saying that her accent and nationality have nothing to do with her place on your list? And if they don't, then why did she make it? And where are the other "big" girls? 
Just curious... |

Hmmmm... I seem to recall a few British beauties on your list, Johnny...Yes, absolutely. I'm all for a woman with a sexy accent. My point was that the fact that Judi Dench has an accent doesn't overcome the fact that she's old enough to be my grandmother, therefore, I'd never have a crush on her. However, I know females who are young enough to be Sean Connery's granddaughters and yet they claim he's sexy because of his Scottish accent. The guy's almost 80!

Just curious...Again, I'm not knocking accent and/or nationality. I also like a good sense of humor, but even if I think a 90-year-old woman is the funniest person on the planet there's still no way I'll have a crush on her. For any of you ladies who might have crushes on Hollywood octogenarians, is there no ewwww factor there? I think Kate may have a little less than 30 lbs on her peers (although having 30lbs on someone like Nicole Ritchie is healthy)but I think she has her curves in all the right places, just like J Lo. I wish more actresses were brave enough to showcase a few curves (thank you Ms. Hayek and MS. Bellucci). The Calista Flockhart rail-thin look has to go. But please, let's not go crazy and adopt a Rosie O'Donnell prototype either. Pleeease. |

I think Sean Connery is sexy, and it really is all because of his voice (not just the accent...). Do I particularly want to look at him? Not really, but I do like listening to him talk. Sigh.
I think the difference is that girls can have different levels of crushes. Just because I crush on Sean Connery or Robert Osborne or Bill Curtis doesn't mean I want to run away with them. That's the type of crush I have on Ewan McGreggor. Hee hee
Because we aren't always as visual, we can find certain aspects of someone sexy and just crush on that while ignoring the rest (how do you think so many ugly guys end up with hot women?)
I think Colm Wilkinson (the original Jean Valjean in Les Miserables) is sexy, and I've never even seen what he looks like. But he has an incredibly sexy singing voice (imagine Sean Connery singing...that's what Colm Wilkinson sounds like), so I find him sexy. Even if he were the ugliest old man on earth, that wouldn't change.
