Creampuff's Top Ten. Or Eight. Whatever.
Between Winter bemoaning the homogeneity of Lesbian Nation's Top Ten Women of Sci Fi and Dorothy Snarker's Top Ten (in tank tops, no less!) and Syd's Hot List slideshow of hotness (holy Hannah, I'm still blushing) , I thought it was high time to finally flesh out my own Top Ten list, which, as longtime readers know, is general a Top Two list, those two being Dawn French and Gina Torres.
Dawn French
I know I'm not the only one who finds Dawn French fabulous. You know how I know? Because ever since I posted the photo below in relation to a post about vicars, the phrase "dawn french naked" is the top search term on my blog EVERY WEEK. I get more "dawn french naked" visits than I get "free porn podcast" visits. I also get "dawn french is hot" and "any pictures of dawn french naked". Oh, Dawn French. You are one luscious creampuff.
Gina Torres
There are other photos of Gina Torres out there, but this is still my favourite. I can't tell if she's saying "Get over here and I'll make you a woman" or "I filed that restraining order for a reason". Or possibly "make me a sandwich." I'd make you a sandwich any day, Gina Torres. Call me.
Emma Thompson
We were watching Harry Potter V the other night and even though I've seen it a few times and the scene is only, like, 30 seconds long, the part where Professor Trelawney is getting kicked out is so totally heartbreaking that I got a little misty. Oh, Emma Thompson. Even with the Coke bottle glasses and insane hippie hair, you still move me to tears. Also, why have I NEVER SEEN THIS PICTURE??
Katee Sackoff
I just got Season 3 of BSG on DVD and my fabulous friends Dapo and Jebr sent me the first two eps of Season 4 in the mail. I am primed for some BSG gluttony, people. But when?? When will I get my Cheetos and Starbuck time?? Why do I have so much work? And why is "paying the rent" and "wearing pants" so important to Katr? Sigh.
Queen Latifah
I'm pretending right now that I don't know she's currently schilling for Jenny Craig. Shhhh. Don't disturb my fantasy.
Christina Hendricks
I haven't seen the super-talented Christina Hendricks on Mad Men, mainly because we don't get whatever channel it's on. But I remember her extremely fondly from her tremendous performances on those two episodes Firefly. Just thinking about it makes me blush just a little. Hotness.
Eva Mendes
I never thought much about Eva Mendes until I saw her in Hitch (I'm a closet Will Smith fan. I don't know what it is...I love that Will Smith. Am I straight for Will Smith? Possibly.) She's so smart n' sassy and hilarious. Also, I have a feeling she'd boss you around and not put up with your crap and tell you to get over yourself. And you WOULD.
Drew Barrymore
Why is Drew Barrymore never on these lists? Sure, she has patchy taste in men and was in rehab before she could drive. But she's ADORABLE. And she has her own production company! And is reportedly extremely flexible!
Okay, I realize that this is only eight, but I'm fucked for time. Who will be my final two?? Will history decide? Will YOU?? I'm taking suggestions, people...






Ok, I agree with your picks, especially Dawn French, Queen Latifah, Emma Thompson and Drew Barrymore, YUM! (and I have a thing about Will Smith too...weirdness.)
But I would like to add America Ferrera and Sara Gilbert. :) What do you think?

you missed kate winslet and i will not stand for it! she is a ridiculously good actress, stupid smart, firey hot, and gets naked in EVERYTHING she acts in. 'nuf said.

This is an awesome list. I would pay to be Queen Latifah's bitch, actually. Emma Thompson makes me sob like a baby in Love Actually. And that picture of Dawn French is rockin'.
How is it that between this blog post, my comment on it and my own blog, I am so sexually confused and ambiguous all at once?
MAKE IT END!

I can't believe I forgot to put Queen Latifah on my list. She's been a longstanding crush of mine.

I can never decide if I want to be Kate W. or be WITH Kate W. You must add her.

Eva Green and Pauley Perrett (who plays Abby in NCIS) every single time.
A friend and I have a rating system and not only wouldn't we push Pauley Perett out of bed in the morning, we'd willingly make her breakfast in bed to make her stay longer.

Same thing I said on Syd's.. Mariska Hargitay. Rose Rollins is pretty damn hot, too.
Never heard of Katee Sackoff before, but oh wow, she's smokin'.

Hey roro, I liked your list, you got some great ones. I started thinking about suggesting another one or two, and when I really thought about it, I thought of so many women that weren't on your list, I did my own top ten!
Posted by: red mojo | May 08, 2008 at 11:11 PM
um...Meg Tilly? Meagan Follows?
Posted by: Padu | May 09, 2008 at 03:38 AM
Roro, no Salma Hayek?! And I'd have to put Kate Winslet on the list, too.
Posted by: kimananda | May 09, 2008 at 10:50 PM
Yes, the Queen takes up a couple of spots on my list...what the heck is that Jenny nonsense, what happened to beautiful women with curves darnit.
I would add:
Belinda Carlisle (can't help it)
Mariska Hargitay
Annmarie Lucas from Animal Precinct
Hmm, maybe I need to make a list?

Sara Ramirez. I like boys but she is HOT.

Um, HELLO?! Where's Mary Stuart Masterson!!
Posted by: Sarah | May 12, 2008 at 10:48 PM
Hmmm - since we all clearly need you to list the women we find hot, I ask, why no Jodie Foster? Damn sexy.
Posted by: Monica Hamburg | May 13, 2008 at 09:34 AM
Nice! Very nice ... especially Katee. I'd do her.
Posted by: greymatters | May 13, 2008 at 07:09 PM
Your list is a good start, but I do think that Kate Winslet needs to be on it. Also Liv Tyler. She is stunningly beautiful, and in LOTR she speaks Elvish! The ears are hot too. Just sayin'...
Posted by: Monique | May 18, 2008 at 02:22 PM
I'm going to chime in a second the motion for Kate Winslet and/or Sara Ramirez. Kate's always been very vocal about not conforming to Hollywood's standard of beauty, and Sara was in SPAMALOT! How can you not love her for that??
Posted by: Mander | May 23, 2008 at 03:05 PM
Pink.
Her abs alone merit a picture on ANY blog.
