AfterEllen Hot 100 of 2009

[lishesquex]

I'm looking at AfterEllen's Hot 100 for 2009, and grinning like a fool because... srsly, lesbians have good taste.

Top 20s which I whole-heartedly agree with:
#9 Angelina Jolie (duh)
#10 Gro Hammerseng (Scandinavian, hot, athletic and gay - there is no better combination)
#14 Eliza Dushku (loved her as Faith, still loving her as Echo)
#3 Lena Headey (she is so kick-ass in Terminator the Sarah Connor Chronicles)
#13 Kate Winslet (recently saw her in The Reader and thought she was awesome, as always)
#1 Portia De Rossi (her sweetness just kills me)

..and damn, there are so many more in the Top 20 that I'd second, but there's no point in me just rehashing it all, when you can see the full thing at AfterEllen.

Some other thoughts:
- Lucy Lawless managed to grab the 27th spot, but... could they have chosen a more unflattering photo? Srsly. No. They should have used one of the Pleasuredome ones. Or one of Xena would do just fine.
- I'm glad Missy Higgins is on the list (at #42) but she deserves so much higher!
- Wait... is that... George Bush's daughter? Number 64, Sophia Bush? o.O
- Why is Anne Hathaway even on this list?? *glares at 83*
- OMG Yvonne Strahovski at 88! But dude, she should be in the top ten!
- Woot Michelle Obama!

People who weren't on the list who I think totally should have been on it:
- Erin Kelly
- Milla Jovovich
- Jeri Ryan
- Kate Mulgrew
- Ana Marie Cox

Did I miss anyone?

Sophia Bush is an actress, not Dubya's daughter, thank god *g*

Lol, good to know. Although, apparently one of Bush's daughters spoke out against the Republican party being too socially conservative, particularly with regard to gay marriage. Which is why I thought it could have been her.

Gabby... ? :(

You know I dig Xena more. :P

The fact that Yvonne is at number 88 is evidence that lesbians aren't watching Chuck - and should be! But OMG I was so happy to see Patricia Vico on the list (from Hospital Central). And of course Laura Sanchez (Pepa).

Portia at number 1 made me supremely happy. :)

Heh, that was my first thought when I saw Portia at number one - "Ingrid must have been overjoyed."

All lesbians need to watch Chuck and worship at the altar of Strahotski.

what's wrong with the pic of lucy lawless?

I just thought it was a horrible photo. I've always preferred her with darker hair, too.

Oh, I like the darker hair too. I'm watching Xena right now :P

List is okay... Scarlett Johansson and Rachel Weisz would have definitely been higher if I had a say. xD

My faaavourite actress (for hotness) pretty much never appears on those hot-lists. :( Sherilyn Fenn.
