Anna Faris, from Scary Movie 1, 2 and 3. Hot damn, she’s cute!

Major Kira Nerys… er, Nana Visitor.

Another vote for Michelle Forbes.

Whoever the actress was who played Rogue in the X-Men movies.

I couldn’t wait for Candace Cameron to turn legal. And I see that her on-screen sister, Jodie Sweetin, is looking pretty damn good nowadays. No, the Olsen twins do nothing for me.

Crystal Bernard.

I have a Yamaha poster. She’s standing in front of a (then-new) yellow FZR600, and there’s a Long EZ in the background. Cute girl, nice bike, and a great plane all in one photo! 🙂

Absolutely! I saw her recently on Bravo’s _Celebrity Poker Showdown_. One of the other players was [Lacey Chabert](http://belles.rebelles.free.fr/Lacey_Chabert.jpg) in something sexy and low-cut. Yet Bonney Hunt had tons more sex-appeal, and I kept wishing they would just keep the camera on her.

I third Bonnie Hunt; she’s just one of those women who exudes sex appeal.

Anna Paquin. She grew up REAL good!

Throw in Famke Janssen.

That Jodi Sweetin pic was pretty sweet also. Much better than a pic a saw of her a year ago.

Then again, if my Catholic school teachers saw my current spelling and grammar, I’d be doing laps around the church on my knees till kingdom come 😃

I’m glad you mentioned her, as I’d forgotten all about her, except in the abstract. [Here](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0267506/)’s her IMDB page; it appears she’s just three years younger than I am, and I don’t feel nearly as bad, now.

Personally, I like her better with dark hair. But I wouldn’t object to her as a blonde.

I always thought that Janeane Garofalo (at least the way she used to look) was pretty hot.  
Also, not an actress, but thanks to BBC America, I’ve had the pleasure of viewing Anna Ryder Richardson. Damn she’s hot.

Allison Hanigan, rowr!  
Bridget Fonda, double rowr!!

Others that have already been mentioned,  
Tina Fey  
Donna Reed

Joan Cusack??? Dear God she is hideous to me. I even hate her voice. I chose a cellular company that has worse coverage than U.S. Cellular just because Joan Cusack is their spokesperson.

What, no one’s mentioned [Lauren Graham](http://www.thewb.com/Faces/CastBio/0,7930,815,00.html)? Especially after _Bad Santa_.
