...to ask you, who do you think is beautiful?! (no, Sam Brick - you are not so don't even try to say you are!)

[ilikecandyandrunning]

...following on from the delusions of Sam Brick who, is not, in my - or many people's eyes - a 'beauty', then who is?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder of course, but some people are just so universally damn gorgeous!

I think...

Women
Monica Belluci
Nicole Sherzinger
Christina Hendricks
Brighter Bardot (in her heyday)
Gina Lollabrigida (in her heyday)
Racquet Welsh
Halle Berry
Beatrice Dalle
Sherilyn Fenn

To name a few!

Men

Brad Pitt
Eddie Cahill (CSi NY programme)
Antonio Banderas

There are others who will come to mind eventually!

What about you?!

Cate Blanchett
Christy Turlington
Olivia Hussy (Zeffirelli's Romeo & Juliet)

Olivia *Hussey

Frances McDormand

Kate Winslet

Joaquin Phoenix

Wally De Backer aka Gotye

Beautiful peoples!

Alexander skarsgard. Helena christianson.

Yes Yasmin Le Bon still looks fantastic.
Cindy Crawford about 15 years ago.

what do you mean - not beautiful?

Zooey Deschenal is absolutely gorgeous. As is Audrey Tatau and Patricia Arquette and Sherilyn Fenn as Audrey in Twin Peaks.

Jennifer aniston
Robert Downey jnr. A god in my opinion.......

Michelle Williams
Zooey Deschanel
Natalie Portman
Miranda Kerr
Aishwarya Rai

Enrique Iglesias
Jake Gyllenhaal
Josh Hartnett
Heath Ledger
James Dean.

Oh yes, Jennifer Aniston. Gorgeous eyes.

I forgot zoe dechanel. She is stunning.

Zooey Deschanel also has a wonderful voice. Check out She & Him.

Has anyone mentioned Polly Walker? She was in Enchanted April and was utterly breathtaking. More recently she played Frannie in prisoners wives.

Agree about Holly Willoughlby- she's just not fair on the rest of us!

Morena Baccarin, the one who plays Brody's wife on Homeland!

keira knightly
kate moss
mila jovovich
juliette lewis
bianca beauchamp

Rebecca Hall
Aishwarya Rai
Christy Turlington
Charlotte gainsbourg
Alexa Chung
Halle Berry
Natalie Portman

Brad Pitt when he was young.

Damon Albarn when he was young.

Sadly, age has withered them both.

Orla someone or other - actor - is quite old but looks v young. She's beaut.

Paul Newman when he was young and alive was beautiful. Angelina Jolie (although scarily thin) is beautiful I think. Erm...Catherine Zeta Jones, Jennifer Lopez. Gerard Butler. Ooo this is hard, sure I'll think of loads more in a minute. Maybe alcohol will help....

You are all jealous and that's why I'm not on any of your lists

My friends went out to dinner with Catherine ZJ and said she wasn't all that!

(And she had that grey gum thing going on around her crowned teeth)

Miranda Kerr is a beauty.
As is her husband Orlando Bloom.
Agree with Jennifer Aniston.
Brad Pitt
Johnny Depp
Robert Redford

My DH...

Men
Michael Fassbender - not conventionally good looking like Brad et al but beyond sexy.
Tom Burke - he yummiest voice I have heard in a while - I have a thing for very posh english accents. Again not conventional but beautiful. I was stunned into silence when I first saw/heard him on screen.
My husband - the most beautiful man I have ever seen. He is Scandinavian and thus a bit more conventional with his blond hair et les yeux bleus. General consensus is that he is hot.
Mr Denzel - there are no words.

Women
My mother (think Dorothy Dandridge is in her fifties without a single wrinkle), my mother-in-law, Natalie Portman, Halle Berry, Adriana Lima and Thandie Newton are all just perfect. Really stunning beautiful women.

Most Hollywood actors and actresses are beautiful. If I could look like anyone, it would be Vivien Leigh in her Scarlett OHara days.

My best friend, Kerry - Like Jennifer Anniston but cuter

Helena Christiensen

Cherlese Theron (haven't a clue how to spell)

Bo Derek

Kate Middleton

Sandra Bullock
