The first time I saw [Emmanuelle Béart](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tb9zS04PgBM). Say what you want about _Date With An Angel_, but that face is from Heaven itself. ---

David Tennant as Peter Vincent in _Fright Night_. I adore him as the Tenth Doctor and I fell for him the first time I ever saw him as Barty Crouch Jr. in _Harry Potter_ (I didn’t even know who he was yet, but I turned to the spouse and said, “Wow, he’s _cute._”). But the shirtless, leather-pants-wearing, eyelinered Tennant strutting around as Vincent…rawr! 🙂 ---

Naomi Watts as [Jet Girl](http://www.ugo.com/tv/hot-girl-mechanics-jet-girl) in _Tank Girl_. In anything else, I can take or leave her, but as Jet Girl… wow. Might be the glasses. ---

Maybe I’m just weird, but I generally don’t have any desire to see actors I like naked. I’d much rather see them sexily dressed (see aforementioned shirtless leather pants outfit) than completely nude. I haven’t even tried to hunt down any naked pics of Tennant (I think I might have looked at a couple linked from here in a Doctor Who thread, but that’s it). ---

I haven’t even tried to hunt down any naked pics of Tennant (I think I might have looked at a couple linked from here in a Doctor Who thread, but that’s it). Depends on the actor with me. For most, suggestive clothing is the sexier I’ll admit, such as Tennant and my other Doctor Who crush of Arthur Darvill (he’s so skinny and all). OTOH some bodies, such as Henry Cavill’s “I know there’s a Gawd!” butt, have to be seen in a state of nature to be fully appreciated. > [@Lemur866](#): > > So…did you know Sean Maher was gay when you watched the show? If so, do you think that made him hotter to you? IIRC he wasn’t out until many years after Firefly. No I didn’t, but now that I do know that it makes him all the hotter because now I have a chance with him (once I break up his marriage and family). Actually Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk were pretty damned hot as well- Maher’s just a little more my type- and I don’t know either’s sexual orientation and it doesn’t much matter, though I will admit that Adam Baldwin being a Tea Party blogger makes him less hot than I might otherwise find him. (I didn’t watch the show until a couple of years ago.) Anyone else have"Instant boner’s gonna get ya" playing in their minds to the tune of “Instant Karma”? No? Me neither. ---

Oh, and to give my response. I had a serious crush on Claire Danes when she was on “My So-Called Life”. I still hate Jared Leto, when he got his faced smashed in “Fight Club” I kvelled a bit. But I didn’t have the same reaction to her in any other movie or show I’ve seen her in. Something about the character she played made her incredibly desireable. ---

[Nicole Wallace](http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080402180306/lawandorder/images/9/9f/Nicole_Wallace.jpg) played by Olivia d’Abo. Oh. My. God. So she’s a serial killer… I want to touch her in every way possible. ---

[QUOTE=NoClueBoy] So she’s a serial killer… I want to touch her in every way possible. [/QUOTE] That just means she needs to be punished. Hard. Reminds me of the old joke: A guy sees a beautiful young woman in a seedy bar and moves close to her. Him: So… haven’t seen you around here before, and I’d have remembered. Her: First time here. I just got out of prison. Him: What were you in for? Her: I cut off my husband’s \*\*\*\* and then stabbed him in the heart twelve times until he died. Him [sliding in closer]: So you’re single, then? ---

Don Draper from _Mad Men_. He’s a cad, but brilliant and tortured and I’d love to seduce him into divulging all his deep, dark secrets. ---

For some reason, I fell passionately in lust with Jeremy Renner in the long-cancelled TV show _The Unusuals_. I do like him in other things (especially as Hawkeye–those arms!) but nothing else hit me quite as hard as his role as cop/diner owner, for some reason. Paul Gross in _Slings and Arrows_, a Canadian TV show about a Shakespeare troupe. I don’t find him that alluring in most things (although I think he’s certainly an attractive man), but he does a great job of playing the role of someone who’s supposed to be an incredibly charismatic actor/director: which can’t be easy. He’s also super hot. ---

Sigourney Weaver in _Alien_ pretty much tops the ‘Screen Door in a Hurricane’ list for me. ---

Her slight overbite, her cute face, her smallish build, her “Hello, Bubby” accent, her expressions (esp the demure smile), her eyes… What’s really cool… except for the axe murderer thing and the accent, I pretty much nailed this with my wife. Lucky me. (Nicole still turns me on, tho. Wife knows it, too) ((Hey, she really likes Tony Dinozzo, NCIS. And I really don’t look much like him.))
