We're serious about taking nominations for Scanner's Top 10 Hottest Women in the World.
On Scanner Emily's list: Jenny Lewis, Rilo Kiley frontwoman, child actor and even better solo artist.
Leave your suggestions in the comments section.
Faye Wong!!!
ScarJo, by a lot. If you're having a senior division, a dead heat between Helen Mirren and Charlotte Rampling.
S. Emily, do we have the same hetero-but-if-we-swung-that-way-we-totally-would taste in women?
It wouldn't even be an issue of "if" I swung with her. I'd just swing, if given the opportunity.
I second that on the swing for Jenny.
Tina Fey--add 10 hot points for sense of humor and at least 5 for the mysterious little mouth scar.
and seriously, from the other post,
Neko Case--she's hot to start with, plus she also gets the humor points, plus she's adopted a retired racing greyhound. How sexy is that?
Jenny Lewis, absolutely. Damn.
But I've got to vote for Chan Marshall. Just how the eff did she get William Eggleston in on one of her music videos?! She's amazing. Bangin'.
seconding neko case, on the real.
also, zooey deschanel. because... damn.
oh, and Chloe Sevigny. Though perhaps the Chloe Sevigny of yesteryear.
thirds on neko case.
also eva green, cate blanchett, eliza dushku, and liv tyler.
ooh and katee sackhoff. have you seen her in interview this month? hot.
might not spell em all right, but here goes: Julianne Moore, Jennifer Connelly, Kate Winslet, Clea DuVall, Rosario Dawson, and, hit me with a bucket, but yes, early Angelina Jolie. And throw in some Natalie Portman for the petite section...
right, the Liv Tyler, and throw in Tilda Swinton...
Is Scanner Emily gay? I've always wondered. She'd make a hot lesbian. haha
PS I totally vote for Jenny Lewis. And Missy Higgins and Leslie Feist and Tasha from the L word!
FEIST
Woah, Faye Wong is totally hot. Did anyone see Chungking Express? Or her amazing performance of Heart of Glass? youtube.com/watch
alyson hannigan is my first and last love. despite my lack of affection for blonds, i would not say no to kristen bell. jenny lewis, chan marshall, zooey, and leslie feist are also all yeses. also, though she is pretty much the most two dimensional character i have ever seen, give me 13 (olivia wilde) or death.
Monica Bellucci, Sophie Marceau, Salli Richardson, Porsche de Rossi, Laura Linney
Biff, not to get all pedantic on your ass, but it's "Portia" as in "the quality of mercy is not strained," not "Porsche" as in "wir fahren, fahren, fahren auf der Autobahn."
OK, that *was* to get all pedantic on your ass.
Ooh, and strong seconds on the Alyson Hannigan. More yummy redheads. And add Charlize Theron--that perfume ad where she comes stomping at the camera pulling off various items of jewelry and clothing with that "take me to bed *now*" look on her face...
sorry...must go...take care of something now
Aight, look, you know I got nothing but love for y'all, but there better be a "Hottest Men" after this, otherwise Nerve is just indie Maxim, and American Apparel is already indie Maxim, so for the love of crikey, tend your niche and talk a little sausage. "Hottest Miscellaneously Gendered" would also be nice, for those of us thinking in non-binary terms, and/or various shades of Bowie.
also-- Katee Sackhoff. Hubba!
Emily Farris writes about culture and food for numerous publications and websites you've probably never heard of, including her own blog eefers. Her first cookbook will be published in fall 2008. Emily lives in Greenpoint, Brooklyn with her cat, but just one . . . so far.
Brian Fairbanks is a filmmaker living in the wilds of Brooklyn. He previously wrote for the Hartford Courant and Gawker. He won the Williamsburg Spelling Bee once. He loves cats, women with guns, and burning books.
Nicole Pasulka is a Brooklyn writer and editor who's always on the lookout for the dirty. Her other virtual home is at The Morning News, where things are squeaky clean most of the time.
