The discussion centers around the question of who is considered the prettiest person, specifically among celebrities, both past and present. Participants express varied opinions, with some stating that attractiveness is subjective and often tied to personal connections, such as being in love. Many contributors assert that they do not find most celebrities attractive, citing perceived lack of intelligence or authenticity as detractors. Several names come up, including classic stars like Hedy Lamarr and modern actresses like Jessica Alba and Sandra Bullock, with some participants sharing personal anecdotes about encounters with celebrities. The conversation also touches on the idea that physical beauty can be overshadowed by personality traits, with references to the “ugliest pretty girl” concept. Overall, the thread highlights a mix of admiration for celebrity beauty while also critiquing the superficiality often associated with fame, emphasizing that true attractiveness often lies beyond mere physical appearance.

Yep! Diana Rigg was hot. So were Bardot, Loren, and Welch (another funny and very intelligent lady).
I also had a crush on Louise Jameson who played Leela, a companion of the 4th Dr. Who (Tom Baker).

What can I say - I had a thing for redheads, especially one who is strong and can handle weapons. :biggrin: :rolleyes:

If we move over to TV, Barbara Feldon was pretty hot, too!

I agree. And even if they had brains, I still wouldn't find them attractive. They're all so...plastic.

So, you're attributing stupidity to celebrities based on what?

Also, physical attractiveness is independent of someone's mental capacity.

When I was younger I had a thing for Terry Farrell and Calista Flockhart. There are certainly some very attractive celebrities around now, but none I'd want to go out with nor any that I could put forward as the prettiest.

Get Smart! I forgot all about that show till you mentioned her name... pretty hot is an understatement!

I'm waiting to see how many, if any, bring up Alexandra.Bastedo.

Not all actors and celebrities are fake and/or dummies. For the females here, I would like to nominate Paul Newman (he of the impossibly blue eyes) as an actor who is handsome, smart, and compassionate and committed to charitable works. His wife is no slouch, either. :approve:

The Champions! I have been going nuts trying to remember that program. It was briefly on US TV back in 68-69.

And its on DVD!

Thanks, B! You made my day!

Oh, yeah, Alexandra is gorgeous - and 4 languages (not counting English) - wow!

I saw Lena Horne at a USO show in the mid sixties when I was 25. She was stunning then even in her late 40's.

There are so many beautiful people in the world, its just too hard to choose. So I asked my wife for some help. It turns out that my wife is the most beautiful person in the world. I'm not bad looking myself, despite the bruise on my forehead.

I am being frank. I certainly am referring to the kind of attractiveness one mentions in the OP. I say what I mean, and I mean what I say, otherwise I wouldn't make such a comment. Sure I like the women here, and I especially appreciate the intelligence and interesting interactions.

Attactiveness is not everything. There person inside is what really counts.

I would hope, and I expect, that that is not the case.

I'm glad that was settled without requiring a trip to the ER.

Choice was easy - find the one who could tolerate me. Finding her was the hard part. :biggrin:

I've always had a thing for Ellen Barkin in Buckaroo Banzai and The Big Easy. She is sooo shy-yet-sex-kitteny. Though time has not been very kind to her.

They say attractiveness is related to strong symmetry in features. Ellen's sexy crooked smile is a powerful refutation of that principle.

Joey Lauren Adams, Selma Hayek, Uma Therman, Gabrielle Anwar. I have no idea what these women are actually like and that could drastically change my opinion of how I perceive them. But from the way they look and the roles I've seen them play I think they are the celebrities that are most attractive to me at this moment.

I haven't seen all the ladies. As for the second question, I shall refrain from comment.

We're all equally stunning, although only MIH has been drawn by zoobyshoe and she looks so beautiful in that picture.

A critic once called Ellen barkin "the prettiest ugly girl in Hollywood". Her attractiveness is definitely non-standard, but she exudes such intrinsic self possession, confidence, and verve that she's downright magnetic.

She's beautiful, and the rest of you are stunning, but what's interesting is that I am prettier than all of you put together.

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 can vouch for that. I've seen him!
