Phoebie Cates (Still pretty hot)
Heather Locklear (Amazing still)
Christi Brinkley (Not bad now)
Kelly LeBrock (Heard she got a little plump)
Suzanna Hoffs of the Bangles (Still cute)
Honorable Mention: Carrie Fisher (now a train wreck)
Dasiy Duke(Catherine Bach) Showing her age
Christine Applegate: still pretty good, not doing sexy stuff anymore so can’t really tell(I was the same age, In case anyone was thinking it was creepy when she was in the 80’s)
Kathy Ireland: Havn’t seen in a while
Blondie: last I saw looked like she had a hard couple of years
Terry Hatcher(I was so in love with Penny in MacGyver) Looking creepy to me now.
Although she and Dagwood just had their 75th wedding anniversary, I think she looks as hot as ever.
Just because I’m a fan, I have to say that Debbie Harry is the sexy singer, Blondie is the name of the entire band.
I think Christie Brinkley, Lynda Carter, and Heather Locklear have aged remarkably well (if at all), Susannah Hoffs is still gorgeous, and Christina Applegate only got prettier since her Kelly Bundy days.
Ione Skye, who was in Say Anything with John Cusack, was a stunner back in the late '80s, and still looked really terrific the last time I saw her, in a small role as Ann Veal’s mother on Arrested Development.
When I was a kid, I had a big crush on Markie Post, who played Christine Sullivan on Night Court (despite her '80s fem-mullet). I have no idea what she looks like now, though.
If you were married at one time to the great thespian Steven Seagal, you too would balm your achining spirit in donuts.
Has something happened lately to Carrie Fisher to make her into a “train wreck”? Last time I saw her in a movie - and it’s been a few years - she looked like a normal 40-something year old woman. Or is that the look that now qualifies as a “train wreck”?
She was in the film Employee of the Month recently which was a horrible, horrible movie.
But she was still looking good.
Sheena Easton.
I have no idea what she looks like now, but I thought she was awesome.
Wow, Markie hasn’t aged either (and her hair is a helluva lot better)!
As for Christina Applegate, she was also in Anchorman, looking damn good. (I won’t go into why that movie had such a great cast of hilariously funny actors, but still WASN’T funny.)
I can barely remember the 80’s, much less the poster girls from that era. But a few moments of gazing into the past yields…
Sigourney Weaver
Kelly McGillis – had a crush on her after seeing her in Reuben-Reuben
Jessica Lange
Geena Davis
All fairly handsome women, last I’ve seen of them.
I guess Madonna was the quintessential 80’s girl, but she was always just a bit too skanky to be “hot” (although the bar on “skankiness” has been raised substantially by contemporary celebrities). In current photos, she looks – artificial. Kind of hard to tell what’s below the makeup.
Let’s see, I doubt I can confine myself to just 5. In no particular order:
Erin Gray - Wilma Deering of Buck Rogers. Loved her then, but way to skinny for my tastes now.
Pamela Hensley - Princess Ardala from Buck Rogers. She was evilicious!
Lynda Carter - I mean, damn! I saw her in Sky High recently. Still a knockout.
Victoria Principal - The only reason I didn’t complain about watching a soap opera on Friday night.
Barbi Benton - Waiting in breathless anticipation to see if she’d show up in Love Boat or Fantasy Island.
Crystal Bernard - Way too cute still
Adrienne Barbeau - Loved the sexy DJ voice in The Fog, too.
Emma Samms - Good things come in small packages!
Betsy Russell - See Private School, with the far more famous Phoebe Cates.
Charlotte Lewis - Embrace of the Vampire made me happy in my pants…
Janet Jones - I almost hate Wayne Gretzky.
Belinda Carlisle - Once she got off the drugs she turned into a major babe.
Samantha Fox - Take one part bubble gum pop song, two parts busty british babe, jiggle well, serve hot.
I’m stopping now.
Sheena Easton - Now average
Heather Locklear - Now nice, but will never live up to her T.J. Hooker self again
Bo Derek - Now leathery
Vanessa Williams - Still looking good from what I have seen
Sheila E - Now ?
Heather Locklear
Back in the SwampThing movie or later in Spin City, still fine.
When we see her on TV, my wife says “There’s your girlfriend”. And I say “Oh Yeaaah”
She has told me that if I ever meet Heather and she makes it known she must have me there and then, it would be okay. But only her.
I’m good with that.
And a second for Barbi Benton, Erin Gray (circa Buck Rogers), and Markie Post!
Oh Man!
Watch Wonderland, about the Wonderland Murders involving porn uberstar John Holmes (played perfectly by Val Kilmer, thus demonstrating that somewhere in that expressionless shell there is indeed some acting talent.) Fisher plays the j.f. in the very beginning. She definitely isn’t going to be appearing in any bikinis for George Lucas or anyone else.
And buy some SOS pads to use in the shower after viewing; there is no way to watch that film without feeling…scummy. Good movie about the sort of people you’d never want to associate with in real life.
Stranger
My top 5
Daphne Zuniga - still looks very very good.
Samantha Fox - still hot
Alyssa Milano - ahhh yeah, still hot.
Molly Ringwald - I still think she’s rather attactive anyhow
Lisa Bonet - looked pretty darn good in High Fidelity
A few Others
Demi Moore - not for me but she’s held up well
Melanie Griffith - Meh. I might be way off base but she appears to have had some work done (which I’m not against, it just seems obvious with her)
Pam Dawber: somewhere in infomercialimbo.
Daryl Hannah: dunno.
JoBeth Williams: matronly but still hot.
Kathryn Harrold: disappeared off the face of the earth.
Kathleen Turner: lunch meat.
Pretty much my top 5 if you replace S Fox with Dana Plato who IIRC was still looking quite hot when she died in 1999.
I did that exact same thing every week. I was only 4 - 6 years old at the time too so I tend to scoff when people say that little kids don’t know their sexual orientation. Between Wonder Woman (Linda Carter) and Barbi Benton, I worked out the concept of a menage a trois on my own before I was in Kindergarten. I got to hang out with Barbi Benton without too many other people around in college before the start of a Mardi Gras parade. She looked good then too but it was stressful not saying those things that my child mind had so carefully worked out years before. I loved them so much that I eventually found a wife with the same look as well just like I always told people.
Oh I loved Samantha Fox. Her songs were just so, trashy. They fit perfectly on me at the time. I played the plastic off the tape I had.
Ummm, Ginger Lynn?
Looked kinda yucky in the E! THS, but in her day she was my fave. And I’m a girl.
