Jen. Not a shadow of a doubt. Though I’ll take Britney as a consolation prize. ---

It takes guts to act out a part being so vapid vapid and dorky as Anniston has protrayed rachel trhoughout the series. She might never be Oscar material, but she does a pretty good job as a runner up to Meg Ryan in the Romantic Comedy genre, which is my fave of all movie genres and the hardest one to do well. In the movies I’ve seen her, she is at least credible and human, not just a barbie doll. I can easily see her in sweat pants and thick socks, curled up on the couch and playing PS2 games while munching on Oreos and drinking milk. This combined with her looks make her girlfriend material. BS is just BS. She’s so stupid, trash cans seem smart. Being that stupid makes her un-hot, even though she’s kinda good looking with the right clothes, makeup and phosowork. Smart is sexy. Stupid is a turn off. ---

Definitely Jennifer Anniston. End of discussion. Period 😃 ---

“I’d say me.” LOL Right now, I’d take Spears. She HAS To wear the catholic school gorl get up from that video though! 😉 Five years from now, she won’t look good anymore. Aniston,who would be pushing 40 in five years, will still look incredible. She has real person good looks. Spears is all silicone and youth. It will fade and biodegrade. ---

Why choose? I’ll take both at once. 🙂 ---

This should be in the great debates. MODS?!?! MODS?!?!?! Seriously though this one is a toss up. Aniston’s Greek and has such a lovely body-but then again Britney’s got a great body too. Hmmm…They are both very facially attractive. I suppose I have to go with Spears by default-she’s younger and closer to my age. ---

Ooh, I wanna play! Jewel. She’s not on it? Oh. Let me try again. Joey Lauren Adams Huh? Well, crap. Ok, Nicole Kid… well, dammit to hell. Who were the choices again? Oh, never mind then. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by watsonwil \* > [B Spears is all silicone and youth. It will fade and biodegrade. \*\* Cite? Much as I adore the hotness and bangability that is Jennifer Anniston I could and would never sleep with her for one simple reason: She smokes. And it is a proven fact that kissing someone who smokes is like licking an ashtray. Now, if Jen were to quit smoking… Nope, I still go with Britney. ---

ok… since i’m bored… and the humour was good… spears: 10 aniston: 12 neither: 3 both: 1 ofcourse, i have taken the liberty to judge the intent of an answer where the answer was not straightforward. so now, as you vote, just add to the tally that you append to. that would make **Wisconsin Princess** ’s task a lot easier. hopefully she’ll specify a deadline, either time or votes. \ i wish the board would incorporate the polling option, and allow it atleast in the IMHO forum. \ ---

I’d take Jennifer any day of the week. While Britney is somewhat hot, and certainly would have the better body of the two, she’s just so vapid, and that tips the scales highly in Jen’s favor. Jman ---

Anniston. For some reason, I just can’t take Spears seriously. ---

I’d like Aniston’s head on Spears’s body. If I can’t have that, I’ll just take Britney. ---
