And who would you describe as pretty? We were chatting about this at work today and I'm interested to see what everyone else thinks. My nominations are Brad Pitt and Cheryl Cole for 'pretty' and Jonny Depp and Penelope Cruz for beautiful. We also got onto the subject of supposedly pretty people who we think aren't - I'd put Victoria beckham in this category - she's vile!!

I think Barabara Streisand in her older films like 'whats up doc' is absoltely amazing to look at, so interesting and not at all bland.

I on the other hand, love a pretty boy, like that black guy Miranda had a fling with in SATC..I'll try and find a picture. He was gorgeous.

please stop saying penelope cruz for beautiful= she's got that awful lip thing going on that makes me want to punch her.. you know, where it goes straight across rather than down in the middle??

Beautiful: agree R.Graves was delicious, think he IS ageing ok but with some help from hair dye,
