There’s different flavors of perky; there’s good perky (Zooey) and scary perky ([Gazelle.com](http://Gazelle.com) spokescutie). It’s an “eye of the beholder” thing.

**Sir T-Cups** , are you also attracted to Jennifer Connelly? Because this gazelle girl bears more than a passing resemblence to her.

I myself have always had a thing for the guy in [this Listerine commerical](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1mlJPb1l6s&feature=related). Love the dark eyes 🙂

Wow, what a great site. Thanks for the link.

But as I went through page after page and hadn’t heard of a single commercial, I realized that since I got a DVR a few years ago, I haven’t watched a single commercial. I suddenly feel like I’m missing part of my culture (such as it is).

Years ago there was an ad for Reese’s Puffs cereal with a kid and his older sister who worked as a waitress in a diner. I thoughts she was gorgeous.

I’m going with [Katie Brown](http://whoisthathotadgirl.tumblr.com/post/14565590448/q-who-is-the-hot-rock-climber-girl-in-the-citi), the rock climber in the Citibank commercial. Apparently there’s no CGI magic involved, she’s really standing on top of the ten square foot tip of a several hundred foot high pinnacle. At that point, her hotness is really just the icing on the cake.

Does the gazelle girl want a few used vibrators?

Couldn’t, Be, Simpler. 😃

I prefer the rock climbing girl. That is totally a wild climb.

Don’t leave it to me, the Christmas ad campaign was “Walking in an Orgy Wonderland”

Brothers and sisters typically don’t stare at each other directly in the eyes while having a warm smile, standing there, not saying anything. Now, maybe it happens in real life, but on TV, it’s code for having a crush on someone.

And, yes, if my sister ever stared at me like that, no matter how long I’d been away, I’d be freaked out. If you do that in your family, fine, but it’s weird to me.

She is hot, though. I don’t know how much her googly eyes being made at the camera help that, though.

I’m a girl, but I am obsessed with the dancer in this [Fernwood gym ad](http://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=fernwood%20ad&source=video&cd=1&ved=0CDcQtwIwAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DLBVdZqVBfjE&ei=dYkCT5W1HdH3mAW54_mEAg&usg=AFQjCNH8P0SQuuo78oMu0LMT1_AhcrwDMQ) (a chain of women-only gyms here in Australia).

IMO, not only one of the most beautiful girls currently in advertising, one of the most beautiful on TV period.

I think it’s her resemblance to Anne Hathaway…the long dark hair, big-brown eyes, cute smile…_swoon_

Carly Foulkes fans will want to know she’s been cast in an upcoming TV series _Powers_.

I disagree. Brothers & sisters may do it after not having seen one another in a long time and missing one another. Well, a brother and a sister, anyway. My baby sister reacted to my returning after a long absence that way, and trust me she has nothing resembling sexual designs on me.

She doesn’t seem especially hot to me, but it’s probably because she looks so young – sixteen or so.

I think CF is better looking than Hathaway, though she could do with a couple of cheeseburgers a week for a couple of months.

I kinda like Christina Cuenca, the lingerie girl in the Windows 7 “Really?” commercial.

Just for her mind, of course.
