What Is the Prettiest Person You've Ever Seen?

[zoobyshoe]

Can anybody explain why Julia Roberts was chosen to star in "Pretty Woman"? When she married Lyle Lovett, people were gabbing about why such a "pretty" woman would marry such a homely guy. I couldn't see it. Physically, they were a good match, though if Lovett's songs are any indication, she was badly out-classed in that match-up.

She was chosen because she's an excellent actress, and, she's VERY pretty:

What's most appealing about her, though, is not always apparent in still photos. Her way of shifting from a neutral mood into a sudden, unexpected, vivacious laugh is remarkably sexy. She does this in most of her films at one point or another, and the impression it gives is of a woman who can be tickled very easily and thoroughly without much provocation (sexual connotations intended).

In my mind the Lovetts/Roberts thing wasn't about relativity of looks at all. It was a tickler/ticklee match up. I can see him sitting there all day sending her into laughter and giggle fits with his wry, dry, dead pan humor.

Apparently -

Roberts first catapulted to worldwide fame when she co-starred with Richard Gere in the Cinderella/Pygmalianesque story Pretty Woman in 1990. Roberts was able to win the role after the first two choices for the part, Molly Ringwald and Meg Ryan turned it down. The role also earned her a second Oscar nod, this time as Best Actress.

Roberts is married to second hubby, Daniel Moder, so hopefully it'll work out.

Not like a movie (entertainment) star, but like Hawking, DD is a celebrity, perhaps more so in the academic/scientific population. He's not yet a household name, but few mathematicians are.

Who is DD?

Only my deepest most heart felt feeling. Man or woman, Keanu Reeves is the finest looking person I have seen and he has grace with insightful beauty.

What's "insightful beauty"? And, in what way are you afraid Reeves is going to dirty his nose? (A coke habit I haven't heard about?)

I must admit that I haven't seen this thread before, and it's too long now for me to read it.
As an answer, however, there are a lot of very attractive women in both show business and my life. I have to go with my first reaction to seeing the question. One name and face popped into my head as soon as I read it... Audrey Hepburn. I don't think that anyone before or since has ever been that beautiful.

I don't think that anyone before or since has ever been that beautiful.

Not even Ingrid Bergman?

Not even Biff Naked...

who is the prettiest person youve ever seen? I am mostly want to know which celeb dead or alive you find more attractive than others?

How about Nigella Lawson?

Ooh, you dragged this thread back from the dead. I have recently re-watched the Mummy, and I've got to say that Rachael Weisz is pretty darned cute. She was wonderful in The Constant Gardener, too.

 

[pivoxa15]

I remembered this thread but didn't post anything then but recently just realized Nigella Lawson as probably the only person on TV or not physically there to make me ... 'think'. Surprised no one has mentioned her yet.

rewebster, that last woman you posted has a unibrow! Ewwwwwwwwwughhhhhhhhh...

How pretty you think someone is can depend on the mood you're in as many a person in a failing marriage could tell you! Also how pretty you think someone is depends on how used to seeing a particular kind of body shape or face you are, but there are some basic things people look for like a symmetrical face/body (everybody is asymetrical to some extent but the human mind decides at some point that the asymmetry is too great).
A friend of mine - a woman - once told me that in her whole life she had only seen one woman who she thought everyone would think was pretty without make-up on.And this woman was not a celebrity!

I'll tell you this about pretty and famous women:Sandra Bullock is pretty.There are however prettier women than her out there.I could resist them.But if Sandra Bullock came on to me I wouldn't be able to resist her.She has got intelligence and a great personality - of all the holywood stars she's got the best combination of looks and personality.And her partner must be constantly worried about losing her to someone else.

 

[Cyrus]

And her partner must be constantly worried about losing her to someone else.

:rofl: Why would you say that? Thats silly. There are plenty of women just as good as Sandra Bullock in the world. You could find them just as easily as turning on your tv. Halle Berrys husband cheated on her, plus you don't know any celebs real personality. You just know what you see of them on tv.

 

[turbo]

None of us know Sandra Bullock's personality, but the fact that she's married to Jesse James tells me she's probably got a great sense of humor.

 

[wolram]

I wonder who the ugliest pretty girl is. I never can figure that stuff out. I just found out the other day that Ellen Muth (Dead Like Me) is "ugly". All this time I thought she was so sexy and cute.

I think she is cute, also Kate Bush, and i have not seen an ugly PFer yet, in fact i would say they are way above average.

 

[pitot-tube]

I think you can tell something about someone's personality and intelligence from what they put into several acting performances and from interviews.You may not get a full picture but you can get a good enough one.Most people can't fake their personality over a large number of years particularly with the press being so intrusive these days.
