Pamela Anderson might be attractive if they could tone down the makeup three or four notches. Prevent her from speaking any dialog (Barb Wire, anyone?). Oh, and suction out whatever they did to her lips.

I don’t understand how anyone can watch one of those cellular telephone commercials with Catherine Zeta Jones and still retain even a scrap of lust for her.

Catherine Zeta Jones is gorgeous, classy ,elegant.

Pam is hot in a cheap hooker sort of way. Everything on her is fake, so it’s hard to know how hot she would have been without all the plastic.

Overall, Nicole Kidman takes the cake. She is everything a movie star should be.

The funny thing about this is - you are talking about the most beautiful FAMOUS person. What I mean is, anyone, ANYONE who lived in Hollywood would be considered beautiful with that expensive hair, makeup, collagen, etc. Seriously, if Pam took off her makeup, didn’t have 2.3 gallons of hairspray in her hair, and ate more than 2 carrots per year, you would not look twice at her on the street.

I know this is a shallow thread, but famous people are PAID to look good 🙂

I checked that webpage, and found to my delight that Leonardo DiCaprio looks like Arch Hall, Jr.! (of MST3K’s _Eegah!_ fame)  
And anyway, you’re all wrong, it’s Katarina Witt.

I do not think PLA has perfect facial features. (JMO)

I think Audrey Hepburn is classic beauty.  
Her features are soft and porprtionate. In still shots her eyes show expression.

I also agree that N. Wood is attractive as well as E. Taylor.

FWIW, I think Elvis had perfect facial features.

Damn you UB!!!

I was going to jump down to reply thinking no one would have mentioned her. I decided to scroll and check out the replys anyway and I saw your post. Schucks.

She was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen in “Breakfast at Tiffany`s”. Georgeous.

Maybe she is, without the make up. I think its too much.  
Myself, I think Carmen Electra is better looking. Check out her photos online!

[Merle Oberon](http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Hills/2440/mob1.jpg) is one of my favorites, along with Audrey Hepburn and [Diahann Carroll](http://www.tcf.ua.edu/Classes/Jbutler/T577/Students/dcweb.html).

I have to say Shannon Elizabeth from American Pie is from head to toe one of the best looking.

I must be weird. I can see that most of these women are attractive in one sense - symmetry and balance of features, etc., but they seem so boring looking.

I think one of the hottest actresses out there right now is Katherine Keener. Give me a face with character.

The ‘weird’ part doesn’t really bother me. I think she’s stunning. And yeah, I guess that would make me a 1 on the kinsey scale 😉

I always thought that Terri Hatcher was beautiful. I did like it when her hair was a bit longer. It was the only reasons to watch Superman. Check her out [here](http://www.celebritywonder.com/cgi-bin/frame/frame.cgi?terihatcher==http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Set/3320/index.html)

He face is like the idealized Kabuki mask of an uber whore complete with huge stylized pencil brows drawn onto her face above a pair of puffed out collagen plumped lips. She is to attractive femininity as a velvet Elvis painting is to the Mona Lisa.

Aside from it being an unflattering photo (the one without make-up), I think she’s better looking in the “awful” picture. I think Pam = Loni Anderson – plastic, helmet head hair and almost a caricature. I think the most beautiful woman would have to Ursula Andress in her hey day.

[Carmen Electra](http://www.2tup.com/e1/g1p1.asp) is a hottie! She is right up there with Pamela.

[Yasmine Bleeth](http://www.celebwelove.com/cgi-bin/create/bigimage.pl?name=Yasmine_Bleeth&imgname=yb03.jpg) is right up there too.  
I am not very fond of Angelina Jolie. I have been told so much how I look like her. I guess I see the resemblence, but there are so many unattractive pictures of her, that I kind of get insulted.  
I think it’s the lips that insult me. 😛  
I think she is ok, I just don’t want to look like her. I would much rather look like Pam A.

[When I saw this picture, I was in shock. It was like looking at a pic of myself](http://www.actressarchives.com/display.php?path=/angelina&loc=servn1&img=99.jpg). This is one of her less than pretty pictures though. Maybe it’s just some of the angles that the photographer grabs.  
Maybe I should get a lip reduction. 😃

I think her head is too big for her body and her lips are too big for her face. She seems awkward. There are some pictures that are really nice, but the more I look at her, the less I like her.
