Pamela Anderson is to beauty what McDonald’s is to fine dining, IMHO. ---

Off to IMHO, I guess. And let’s show a little respect for other people’s preferences, shall we? Personally, I don’t particularly care about miss Anderson either. If I had to pick an attractive celebrity, names like Tyra Banks and Laetitita Casta come to mind. ---

No PA is not the most beautiful in the world, definitely not. Two things… one everybody can agree on and one a little controversial: 1. Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever has the worst dialogue of any film made in the last year; and 2. Lucy Liu could be the most beautiful woman in the world.

Pamela Anderson was very pretty before she got all artifically plastic and grotesque. Currently she is representative of all that is slutty and revolting in a shallow woman. Personally I consider either Natalie Portman or Elizabeth Hurley as ideally beautiful, purely on that superficial level we are referring to. But that’s just my own taste, of course. ---

Angelina Jolie is weird, but gorgeous. But my heart still belongs to Farrah. [http://www.hollywoodjesus.com/movie/charlies\_angels/Farrah\_poster.jpg](http://www.hollywoodjesus.com/movie/charlies_angels/Farrah_poster.jpg) ---

I don’t find Pamela Anderson even remotely attractive. Speaking as a heterosexual woman, I’d much rather look like plain old me than PLA. However, Audrey Hepburn has always been my ideal of feminine beauty. StG ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by StGermain \* > \*\*However, Audrey Hepburn has always been my ideal of feminine beauty. > > StG \*\* \ My dad told me Saturday that I had an Audrey Hepburn neck. Not sure that the neck is the part of Audrey Hepburn that I would want to have, but you take what you can get! \ Personally, I love the old fashioned look on a woman - the lush hair is what always gets to me - so I definitely have a weakness for Catherine Zeta Jones and Nicole Kidman.

**susan\_foster** - Audrey had a lovely neck, long and sylph-like, with very clean lines. It, like the rest of her, was elegant. Maybe I should chage my score on **Qagdop’s** Kinsey poll from a 0 to a 1. StG ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Polycarp \* > **_De gustibus non est disputandum_ (freely translated, “Everybody has their own taste.”)** I usually translate that as, “OK, as long as I don’t have to watch you eat it.” (Of course, that falls into the _very_ free translation category … 😃 ) Pam A. looks better since she had those ridiculous implants removed. But I’ll concur that Audrey Hepburn is a much likelier candidate for ‘most beautiful woman ever’. I haven’t seen every woman in history-I’d bet that Helen of Troy would win the honor, though … ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by susan\_foster \* > **Nicole Kidman.** Finally, someone with some sense in this thread. ::happy dance:: I think Nicole Kidman is that epitome of female reality–she’s made of what God gave her (as near as I can tell) and she’s not afraid to try various looks. Personally, Nicole Kidman has to be my absolute favorite beautiful woman, and she’s most definitely my role model, in everything from her beauty to her style to her talent to her strength. Besides, she got Tom Cruise. Mrowr. OK, that totally voids my arguement. I didn’t mean for that. ~Ferry, disillusioned ---

IMHO Pamela Anderson=skank. Sorry, **JerseyDiamond**. This is why there is no Most Beautiful Woman/Man in the World. There is no accounting whatsoever for taste. ---

Nah. Pam’s do-able, provided she get’s steam cleaned first, but I gotta go with Katherine Zeta Jones, Alyssa Milano and Rose McGowan. Charmed, I’m sure.
