Beautiful Women

I like to look at beautiful women. (and men, of course--but that's another thread). I like to look at movies, etc. and see how the styles have changed.

Who do you think represent the most beautiful women of the 20th/21st century?

Nora Charles. Not Myrna Loy; Nora Charles.

just one soul's opinion

20 years later she's married to the very talented kevin kline

Salma Hayek, Sarah Chalke, Joey Lauren Adams, Greta Garbo, Lucille Ball (she's great in, "Miss Grant Takes Richmond"), Milla Jovovich, Samantha Brown (travel channel), Megan McCormick (travel channel), Justine Shapiro (travel channel). Just to name a few.

for pictures of Megan and Justine: http://www.meganmccormick.com/ (not an official site, just some screen caps)

I don't know from "the 20th/21st century"--I wasn't around for most of it. :D

But I'll always have a soft spot for Winona Ryder, Kirsten Dunst, Jodie Foster, and Judy Garland.

Norah Jones

but cameras have been!

and, not to fault your taste, but I find your list a bit odd. Smart? Talented? Yes. Most beautiful?

Well, tastes differ, as do styles of beauty. Being a small blond myself, I tend to like statuesque brunettes--Sophia Loren and Salma Hayek, for example. But there are lots of beautiful women out there.

Not me, alas!

Jennifer Hawkins..


Megan Gale...(below)
They are both gorgeous Australian chickie babes, but they appeal to me as they are both down to earth and just great personalities.

Jessica Alba is wwaaaaaayy up there on my list.

(I don't like skinny) Greta Garbo, Elizabeth Taylor, Vivien Leigh, Lucille Ball, Brigitte Bardot, Jean Harlowe, Lauren Bacall, Marylin Monroe, Raquel Welch...
My top two are Audrey Hepburn and most beautiful... Sophia Loren


Modern two exceptions are Charlize Theron and, sometimes, Angelina Jolie.

.I've always thought Uma has a classic beauty.

Now I think Roselyn Sanchez (from Without a Trace) might just be the most beautiful woman who ever lived!

Kudos to UT for the Phoebe Cates!

I'd like to add this quote:

Yet her features were not of that regular mould which we have been falsely taught to worship in the classical labors of the heathen. "There is no exquisite beauty," says Bacon, Lord Verulam, speaking truly of all the forms and genera of beauty, without some strangeness in the proportion."
--Edgar Allen Poe, Ligeia

I agree about Uma, a grievous oversight on my part. Also, damn I can't think of her name, black lady on Ugly Betty now, also played the Queen Of Trash in Elmo goes to Grouchland.

Vanessa Williams.

Ahh, yes...Vanessa Williams.

I like Michelle Pfeiffer, too.

Diane Kruger
Natlalie Portman
Ashley Judd
Catherine Deneuve

Briana Keilar
Sharon Stone (I know...)

Natalie Portman is a beautiful young lady, but then I see a pic like this and think what are you doing?

Where is her camp tattoo?

Her hair is growing back after she shaved it for a movie role, and the light is very unflattering, and her dress is much too large and fugly. It makes her look like a skeleton, but she's not.

There's somethin about skier chicks..

Lindsey Kildow of the US Ski Team

Definitely the dress. She looks like a poster child for starving Trekkies.

She even looked good with the shaved hair. She's very pretty. I loved her in Garden State.

wow. natalie portman has a huge head

Natalie "Hot Grits" Portman...*drools*

This woman is beautiful. ;)

They keep the White House soooooooo cold.

No. 1 would be my wife. A distant second would be Jane Seymour. Jane fits my wife's rule for looking at other women. Drool all you want, as long as they are older than she is.

How old is your wife, so I can avoid breaking the rule.

Hillary Clinton is a Hag. Nice puppy noses on the other one though.

My wife is 42, I think Jane 60, or close to it.

I think I would be embarrased mightly by that photo if I were Natalie

Radha Mitchell

You think she's cuter than Picabo Street?

For sure. She's less than a year older than me, can only dream I'll run into her on the slopes next winter and ask to buy her a drink!

Madeleine Stowe..........that's not me in the background, but I have been stalking the woman for years now.

Persis Khambatta...........not many women can shave their heads and still look gorgeous. Deceased unfortunately and only accessible by the gods. Goddamned gods.

Janine Turner..............I like her better with long hair, but dirty old men can't be too terribly particular.

Zooey Deschanel is smoking hot!

In the last half of the 20th century, we've swung from Ginger to Mary Ann as the ideal.

I personally think Sela Ward is beautiful

i was gonna post a pic of jinx in her wedding dress.....cuz dayum. but i was denied by the oversite commitee. anyway....i really like Mia Sara:

Matt Damon. :D

Got a mouse in your pocket? :right:

Yes, wanna pet him?

did you know sheldonrs - that matt damon is making a new "Bourne" movie

Hmm, I'll have to break this down by decades..

1960's - Audrey Hepburn,Ann Margret
1970's - Raquel Welch, Farrah Fawcett, Jaclyn Smith
1980's - Susan Sarandon (also 70's, but that decade was getting crowded),Patty Smyth,Christie Brinkley,Veronica Hamel
1990's - Krista Allen,Lucy Lawless

2000-TBD

Helena Bonham Carter

She was on Jonathan Ross last Friday and I couldn't stop staring at her - she's a living Pre-Raphaelite beauty.

Uncalled for, xo. Just as soon stomp a mudhole in your ass, but Tina Louise was....well, you know. Don't you? or don't you?

Halle Berry. Can't believe no one's mentioned her.

Yeah I know, a Hollywood tart, with 3 tons of make-up, limited talent, and as phony as they come.
If you don't want to pet my mouse why did you ask about him?

How about some Black magic:

You used the term "we" when you should have said "most of us". A common, tongue-in-cheek remark is "We? You mean you and that mouse in your pocket?" if one doesn't consider himself a part of "we". And that overly made up phony tart was one damned good looking woman in her prime.

I didn't know you leaned that way. I'd have chosen my words more carefully, as should you have. :cool:

I said we because the nation as a whole has changed it's taste in pop sluts. Now they look more like Mary Ann than Ginger. If you want to chose your words more carefully, don't make threats you can't back up.

depends on ones criteria... there are two that I like looking at for the sake of looking at. and both hard to find on the web anymore. Luba (from the hegre photographs.. married the sum-beeyotch!) and zsanetta (aka. sandy/vega vixen) who now owns her own porn company.) like I said they are close to what I see as female perfection (specifically luba). statues in motion.

oop! didn't read that.. mary anne was a keeper... ginger was a a one night fling (that I would keep in the back of my mind when mary-anne wasn't being too enthusiastic.

Ginger or Mary Ann?

A little change in direction...and my first picture post. <crowd begins to cheer until pic comes into view...d'oh!>

But to make amends (for the last post) and to keep (or repair) integrity of the thread...

Not a threat, son......a choice. And as far as can't, you just don't know what the hell you're talking about.

Can't, boy. Just hot air.

I've always said that bull queers give the gay community a bad rap. You're welcome to the last word, old girl, but I won't see it because you're going on the ignore list. Then again, if you have balls enough to turn it into the real deal, PM me and we can set something up. You hit up on the wrong hetero.

Bring it on, I'll meet you at the airport with a brass band, cupcake.

Renee Zellweger is hot, for me it is as much her poise, humor and attitude as it is her looks.

I'm slow, But just WTF is going on here in a thread about gals?
Help me out someone!

I said our tastes have changed.
Hyoi asked if I had a mouse in my pocket
I asked if he wanted to pet it.
He threatend to, "stomp a mudhole in your ass", said, "I didn't know you leaned that way", called me a, "bull queer", and generally showed how homophobic and clueless he is.
Very funny.

Stop fighting, guys. Your turning me on.

I agree.

And there's somethin' about alternative rock chicks from the home state of POTUS 42:

Aishwarya Rai

Draxie likey :D

Aishwarya is supposed to be the most beautiful woman in the world.

Personally, I think her nose is unattractive.

How in the multiverse can you not like that nose?

What makes her the most beautiful woman in the world? I've never even heard of her, so I don't think that could be true anyway.

She's very pretty, but there are lots of very pretty women.

It's a matter of perspective. One person's trash is anothers treasure so to speak.

She is the big Bollywood actress in India. Bollywood is pretty big everywhere outside the US and a few other countries so it makes sense.

it's too long and sharp, or something. The posted picture really doesn't show it, but I've seen live shots of her and --

well, us lesser belles gotta find something to complain about, ya know?

The most beautiful woman in the world is Delta Burke?

+1 for Adriana Lima

Catherine Zeta Jones takes a nice picture. As does Charlize Theron.

And Laetitia Casta

Look familiar:

Catherine Zeta Jones is one of the hottest women on the planet...and one of the most talented as well.

IMHO most of these have waayyyyy too much make up. Dishonourable mentions go to Charlize Theron and Aishwarya Rai. I like 'em natural or close to.

Alas, I don't have a picture, but the most beautiful woman in my reality was one I knew distantly while at university: half Chinese (cute little nose, great skin) and half Hispanic (strong cheek bones, great skin). Big dark eyes, lustrous hair, wonderful body ....
Ohhh for a photo.....
If I ever get rich I am going to start an exchange student scholarship program to bring young Chinese and Hispanic people together. There should be more of this.

The lord is good :D:

She looks bizarrely asexual for a stunning blonde in a swimsuit.

Some women can do that.

Tilda Swinton played the male angel Gabriel in Constantine and the White Witch in the Chronicles of Narnia. Although Tilda can't be called classically beautiful, I would still classify her as 'stunning'.

She was amazing as Gabriel. Hard to see how anybody else could have played that role. Very brave move for the director to cast a female.

But...Tilda was asexual in an inhuman way. That picture above just seems to lack depth, to me, leaving the figure asexual in the same way a plastic doll is.

All depends on the doll, Dana.

Kate Mara

:D

definitely liv tyler.. can't think of anyone that comes close

Yeah...she is beautiful that's for sure.

Hard to believe she's the daughter of an ugly aging rock star.

Alexa Vega, WOW:



She ain't no little "Spy Kid" no more!

The Michalka Sisters:

Those two should stop sharing their food and get their own meals.

That's not the Olsens? :confused:

In no particular order:


Adriana Lima -




Kiera Knightley -




Shannyn Sossamon -




Natalie Imbruglia -




Rihanna -




Jessica Alba -

Rihanna - The Mummy Returns - and I want my mummy

Jessica Alba - succubus - but she could succ my ...bus?

Ah yes, Shannyn Sossamon. I remember her from "A Knights Tale".

"Prithee my good maiden, art thou up for some bangers and mash?"

Yes, I do know it means sausage and potatoes, but I'm not really up on the British colloquialisms for 'fuck'.

Was Shannyn in Constantine, too?

Nope. That was Rachel Weisz

no, I don't mean Constantine (slaps forehead). I mean The Order with Heath Ledger! Guess I'll check the IMDB.

ahhhh

yep, that was her. Weird--I didn't realize she was the same girl as the one in The Knights Tale.

A Hero worth saving:

Hayden's a very pretty girl but, I think, not yet a beautiful woman.

*nods* she's going to be stunning though when she grows up. And her performance in heroes shows some serious style.

yep. she's one to watch, for sure.

Data...forgive me for saying this but I have to ask.

Don't you think there's something creepy about you (being 37) liking the look of all these very young girls?

Its like when my mates little sister, whom I have watched grow up and always known as Tilly, suddenly decided she wanted to be called Maddy. I call her Maddy but in my head she's still Tilly.

OKay maybe not quite like that cause you're a guy on a message board, who's been posting here a few months, but similar.

Age is just a number, ya'll.
