Probably for the same reason I am strangely and inexplicably attracted to Steve Buschemi.

AND that annoying guy on the DELL commercials…

_embarassed_

Even when watching Pay It Foward, and Kevin Spacey had the burns on his face, I still found him attractive. There is definatly some sort of quality about him, and it’s not completely physical looks.

_goes off in a daze_ Mmm, Kevin Spacey…

I’m with you on the Steve Buschemi cruch, but I have to agree with **Lola** when it comes to the Dell kid. That one I’ll never understand, but to be fair I’ll share one of my odder attractions.  
OK, ready, here goes…Crispin Glover :o

The answer to this question is simple.

You find Kevin Spacey hot…  
…  
…because Kevin Spacey **is** hot.

(And probably gay.)

The end.

I had read in an interview (can’t remember the magazine) that Kevin Spacey said he was straight. He said that he acted gay around women so that they would try and “reprogram” him. I’m not sure what to think. In this time period, known gay actors of Kevin Spacey’s caliber have no difficulty getting choice parts, so he shouldn’t need to be afraid to come out. Then again, maybe he doesn’t consider his private life to be anyone’s business but his own, so that’s why he doesn’t really spell it out. I don’t care; Kevin Spacey could get off sucking eggs and I’ll still go to see his movies. Except for Pay It Forward.
