If looks were all that matters - ladies

The other day I got into a heated discussion about beautiful actresses with my colleagues - of course we failed to agree. Well, they are men (and therefore clueless) so I will not list their picks here. I will list mine, please feel free to agree or disagree. Just remember, it's looks I am talking about, not acting skills.

Angela Basset - saw her for the first time in "Strange Days". Then liked her even more in "The Score".
Charlize Theron - impossible not to like, and one of the girls that featured on my colleagues "best of the best" list, too. Love her in "Italian Job". I don't like many blondes, she is one of very few exceptions.

Eva Longoria - perfect as an adulterous Desperate Housewife.
Julianne Moore - simply perfect. Don't miss her in "Shipping News".

Kate B. - beautiful as a vampire ("Underworld") and as a vampire slayer ("Van Helsing").
Kate W. - English rose, I like her in "Holiday".

Keira Knightley - here is one love/hate relationship. Love her when she looks serious, hate her when she smiles. She knows it, and has her Posh act perfected. I like her in "Atonement".

Liv Tyler - Elven Queen in LOTR, amazing.

Michelle Pfeiffer - perfect in every single movie. Brilliant in "Stardust".
Lucy Liu - "Payback" is my fave. Ouch!

Milla Jovovic - we were born same year in the same city. So where did I go wrong? LOL. "Fifth Element" is hard to beat, but I also like her in "The Claim".
Monica Bellucci - the sexiest woman alive. Perfect in one of my fave movies, "Brotherhood of the Wolf".

Natalie Portman - I don't know what it is about this girl that I like so much. She is great in "V", and equally great in "Star Wars". Just, beautiful.
Nicole Kidman - the ultimate femininity. I chose this pic on purpose - not the most flattering or airbrushed one, she looks very natural, and the movie I like her most in is "Cold Mountain". For a change, the one where she wears more clothes than makeup.

Rachel Weisz - amazing amazing amazing. Quirky, interesting and unusual kind of beauty. Love her in "The Mummies".
Salma Hayek - I saved the best for last. Traffic-stopping knockout in "Desperado", and that dance with the snake in "From Dusk till Dawn" - it doesn't get better than that.

Touchy,

My list only includes actresses, not models. Besides, I find Bundchen rather plain. And Adriana - too playmatey.

;-)

Julianne, Angela and Nicole are possibly the best looking of them all, if you ask me. Then again, you're too young to appreciate their beauty as yet, baybee!

OK am I getting my butt kicked now? Haha I sure am!

The beauty is a personal taste or even this you want it to be on your taste like Barby doll !!? :P sure you'll get many kicks on ur butt..you asked for it :-)

About Julianne, she is average woman (nothing perfect as you said :-P) and Nicole too much whitey, no curves, hard face characteristics (i.e. not feminine), where is the beauty ?
For Adriana Lima, she is amazingly exotic and Giselle has a lot of charms… and both features my girl has :-)

This is the opinion of beauty taster....you don’t know about beauty kitty ! :P
