Oh. My. God.
Vladimir Putin. Don’t ask me to explain, because I don’t understand it.
Monday night, Erica Hill was talking with Anderson Cooper, about some woman who’d written him saying that he was the most wonderful thing ever, and Erica said, “She loves you” in a sing-song junior high school voice that made me feel tingly. Her or Jennifer Eccleston, (crappy picture of her) who manages to look fetching when she’s all smudged and the desert wind is whipping her hair all over the place.
Yes, including this so-inclined man. But you know, sometimes when you have a crush on someone, you have to overlook some of the things you know about them. But it’s really hard to overlook ***everything ***you know about them.
Um, I’ll admit it. I have a tiny bit of a crush on Obama.
But I mean, really. He’s kindahot, dontcha think?
ETA: I think it’s his voice that does it for me.
I’ll take Joe Biden.
You took one of mine – even at age 55, Maureen is still quite the fetching redhead.
I think J.K. Rowling is quite attractive … not at the Princess-of-Sweden level, but J.K. has what? 30 years on the princess? I’d love to see shots of Ms. Rowling from when she was in her 20s.
In the realm of politicians and world leaders, I always though the late Benazir Bhutto was sublime. She really aged well, perhaps looking better in her 40s than in her college days.
So long as I get to keep the sound off…
Sarah Palin. Or Condoleeza Rice.
If authors do indeed count, I’ll take Caleb Carr.
That’s who I was going to say, so instead, let me mention author Donna Tartt (A Secret History, The Little Friend), Susanna Clarke (Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell), and, dare I say (I guess this is cheating) Joyce Carol Oates if only I were 25 years older or she were 25 years younger.
