Almost every morning, one of the first things I do is go to [this place](http://www.puzzability.com/cgi-bin/commonknowledge.pl) and work the daily puzzle. It gets my mind off whatever dream(s) I may have had and gives me a sense of accomplishment. (There are days – maybe 1 out of 10 or so – when I just can’t get the answers, but they have them next day so I can feel stupid a whole day with no relief.)
Whatever.
Today’s “common theme” is NECKS and one of the clue answers was “Audrey Hepburn” which got me to thinking about other actresses and female celebrities whose most recognizable feature is (or was) their necks. Hell, there may even be some guys that way, too.
Who, besides Audrey, has (or had) a nice neck?

Grace Kelly (Princess Grace of Monaco) comes to mind.

Nice? or just distinctive? I’m thinking Charlie McCarthy. 😃

I couldn’t locate any decent pictures of Capucine online, but she’s one to rival Nefertiti for necks. Her IMDB page says she was a suicide but I guess I had forgotten that.

Keira Knightley. Beautiful.
Can’t stand her, but Jennifer Love Hewitt (didn’t she play Audrey in a bio-pic?).
