List of Five: The Crossover Edition
Okay, I'm not a lesbian; I am, however, capable of appreciating women aesthetically. So in the spirit of fairness (and taking male friends to their Happy Place momentarily), I thought I should list the five women I wouldn't kick outta my bed for eating crackers.
Lucy Lawless: A.k.a. Xena. I also wouldn't kick her outta my bed for spanking me with her chakram.
Milla Jovovich: Sure, you think she's just another pretty face, judging by the bajillions of magazines and ads she's been in. But she's also a darn good actress, as demonstrated by the power and vulnerability she shows in both "The Fifth Element" and "Messenger". There's so many elements, to this woman, I could go on and on and on…
Drew Barrymore: Ooooh, who can resist the combination of classic beauty and freak?
Eliza Dushku: I have Faith that she's not really a bimbo. She's nasty, in the best possible sense of the word.
Liv Tyler: Okay, she's ridiculously, ethereally beautiful. But doesn't she seem just a little bit goofy, like the kinda gal you could totally pal around with? Have over for manicures and movies, have some wine, put on your pajamas, cuddle up on the futon ... have to go now...
(And as a bonus, here's My Happy Place.)
