I for one do not understand the infatuation with Vida Guerra. She’s got a huge fucking ass. Gimme Jessica Alba any day of the week.

I don’t see that the question changes that much when you change the technology used. Who do teenagers pick for their desktop wallpaper? Screensaver? Cell phone background? Maybe there’s more variety, but I imagine we can still figure out the top picks.

Here is an earlier thread on [Vida Guerra](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=408630&highlight=Vida+Guerra). Note the lack of disapproval in that thread.

I for one do not understand the infatuation with Jessica Alba. Essentially, she’s Shannon Elizabeth without the nude scenes.

I’m posting, thus making me a poster.

I’m a woman.

I nominate myself.

Instead of posters on walls, I think nowadays it is _ **desktop wallpaper** _.

I guess it’s time for a little research…

[http://www.allposters.com/getthumb.asp?Search=91951&c=c&CID=3E3795918E08463EAD0D036989B8169D&prevPage=1&prevAmt=12&CategoryID=&SortBy=PD&ecard=&psize=48&FilterType1=0&FilterType2=0&FilterType3=0&MinWidth=&MaxWidth=&MinHeight=&MaxHeight=&MinPrice=&MaxPrice=&ItemType=](http://www.allposters.com/getthumb.asp?Search=91951&c=c&CID=3E3795918E08463EAD0D036989B8169D&prevPage=1&prevAmt=12&CategoryID=&SortBy=PD&ecard=&psize=48&FilterType1=0&FilterType2=0&FilterType3=0&MinWidth=&MaxWidth=&MinHeight=&MaxHeight=&MinPrice=&MaxPrice=&ItemType=)

That monster of a link will lead to [AllPosters.com](http://AllPosters.com)’s Top 48. There’s not a single modern **female** celebrity until Maria Sharapova and Hilary Duff all the way at the bottom.

People who enjoy the male form appearently like David Beckham as he’s #1.

She looks like she has flesh covered bowling balls for a butt. Yuck.  
I’m pretty sure that the only reason Jessica Alba is alive is to appear in tight clothing or swimsuits. My husband is perfectly ok with this master plan of hers.
