"So, no one ever says something like, 'If I were attracted to men, I guess I'd go with Boris Kodjoe?' "
"Nope."
"But it's hypothetical."
"We just don't have those conversations."
Whatever. I had no trouble coming up with my top five, even after booting the once top-seeded Angelina Jolie for brazen man-poaching. In no particular order:

Salma Hayek: Owner of some of the most dangerous curves in Hollywood. She's also a smart woman and a budding entertainment powerhouse who is committed to helping mothers in developing nations. Plus, have you seen her?

Sanaa Lathan: A beautiful actress who is way underrated, in my opinion. If you haven't seen her movies "Out of Time," "Love & Basketball" or "Something New," you ought to.

Dame Helen Mirren: I suspected that 60-year-old Mirren was smokin' long before that "holy s***" bikini photo appeared. And, duh, she's a great actress. Regal, talented and British. That's enough for me.

Padma Lakshmi: Salman Rushdie's ex-boo is a food nerd, former model and host of Bravo's "Top Chef." I'm even gonna forgive her for that cameo in "Glitter" as a lip-syncing pop star named Sylk.

Cate Blanchett: As if Australia hadn't done enough by providing Hugh Jackman, it also came up with actress Cate Blanchett. Those cheekbones! She has such a powerful onscreen presence, even when she's playing an icky character like the student-diddling teacher in "Notes on a Scandal." I'm sure she has bad days like the rest of us, but I have yet to see the evidence.
Who's on your list?

I've had my top 5 now for years. Nicole Scherzinger, Zooey Deschanel, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Kat Von D....and LiLo when she eats.
That's a great list, especially Kat Von D. She's the baddest.
Your Hubby is right...i have NEVER had this conversation based on a same sex list.
Also...I have an upcoming story that features Helen Mirren :)
He's willing to go as far as, "Brad Pitt's a nice-looking dude." But that's it. I want to be Helen Mirren when I grow up.
Yeah, this is not a Guy Conversation. But what did you think of Cate Blanchett as Bob Dylan?
Jennifer Love Hewitt? really?
LOL! Well, the orignal JLo does have a great figure. I worry about her Audrey Hepburn obsession though. DG, I haven't seen that Dylan flick yet. Is it good?
I liked it. It's arty, but I think it managed to pull off what it was trying to pull off.
