Top 25 List of Celebs I'd Like to Know

So, I am sitting here waiting for a dozen photos of a grant-funded project to load at the funder's website, and I thought I would participate in Little Merry Sunshine's Top 25 Celebs (Male) I'd Like to Know, and by "know," she means in the biblical sense. This was a difficult exercise for me, as I actually don't find many celebrities all that attractive, so I had to include some dead ones and some that are just plain weird to make it to the magic number. Without further ado, here goes ...

Viggo Mortensen - a true chameleon, liberal, and damn smart, too.... what is not sexy about this man?

Gary Oldman - he may be a crab, but he has taken some incredible artistic risks, and they have paid off brilliantly.

Patrick Stewart - bald Brit with a killer accent - Captain Kirk has nothing on Picard!

Julian Sands - the hair, the androgynous features - I do like them a little girly.

Robert Sean Leonard - is no longer the pretty boy he was in Dead Poet's Society. Now older and heavier, he wears a subtle weariness on his face that makes him all the more real, and therefore, handsome.

Djimon Hounsou - his smile just knocks me for a loop!

Liam Neeson - I do have a thing for the craggy, less than perfect, guy.

Ralph Fiennes - I think I find him hot simply because I am jealous of his cheekbones.

Edward Norton - I do have a thing for the intellectual types, don't I?

Clive Owen - dark, brooding and sensitive. Yum-o...

Mario Batali - men who like food are the best! And I am a sucker for a redhead ...

Michael Ironside - I've liked him ever since V. Go figure!

Alfred Molina - again with the chunky types!

Stellan Skarsgard - another craggy, Nordic type ...

Geoffrey Rush - because he pokes great fun at himself

Hugh Jackman - because he does song and dance!

Forest Whitaker - Another one with the killer smile - and interesting, too!

Liev Schreiber - because the first film I ever saw him in, he was in a dress.

Adam Beach - because I loved him on SVU and I was mad when his character got carted off to jail.

Dennis Storhøi - because short men are tres sexy. The apple dumpling cheeks don't hurt either.

David Wenham - because I am a sucker for a redhead

Oded Fehr - something about that nose ...


Johnny Depp - because I know my sweetie likes him and I was running out of sexy celebs!

River Phoenix - because his loss was far too early and it would have been interesting to see what he did with a full life ...


Thomas Jefferson - because I covet his garden.
