    I didn't understand the Benedict Cumberbunch thing for ages but I saw him being interviewed recently... and there's something there all right.

    Anyone watched Graham Norton just earlier? BC is an interesting thing alright. He looks really strange (an acquired taste type of thing), but has some kinda subtle charm about him. I liked how he kept touching Ford's and Whitehall's arms whenever they gave him compliments. Good body language! :p

    Georgia Salpa. I just do not see the attraction at all! She looks like a poor man's Kim Kardashian or Nichole Scherzinger.
    are you female?

    I won't have Jessica Alba mentioned as not being a sex symbol again in this thread. See this video to see why she is simply amazing.

    Jeez, what a dog.

    The fact that a lot people thanked his comment agree that Scarlett Johansson is hot shít.

    Well, the thread is about sex symbols you personally don't get. So it doesn't really matter that a lot people think she is "hot shít". People aren't going to go "Oh I find the person hot now because the majority of opinion says they are." I've heard a surprising amount of male "I don't get why Scarlett is considered so hot" comments down the years, more than for any other celebrated sex symbol. It's generally is along the lines of "Yeah, hot bod, but what is UP with her face?"

    *ponders for a moment*


    Possibly not worth .. mentioning I think. The baloobas part I mean. Or the chippers actually.




    ..Never mind.

    I actually like a guy to be a bit broken, so I can save him. That said, I prefer that he has a secret up his sleeve....of the Clark Kent/Superman kind. I think he's vulnerable and I get my kicks but really he isn't and it's all a facade just to maintain his super hero cover.

    Disclaimer: I might not be entirely serious about that whole paragraph lest I get labelled a crazy. Oh shuck it, I meant every single last word smile.png.

    Meh, I don't think your alone there.

    Sure, look how many Christian Greys/Edward Cullen fans there are :P

    I see Miley Cyrus wants to market herself in such a way. What a 20 year old with short hair, no tits and arse? She looks like a prepubescent boy.

    Nyes. For now.

    Dammit, now you're gonna make me come across, you know.. judgey? Well, personal taste aside, I think the whole..


    *makes gesture then clasps hands together*

    well scenario mightn't have been ideal? oO


    DEFTLEFTHAND - I don't know whether the current hair don't has something to do with her trying to get away from the Hannah Montana thing or what. Sineád O' C might come across very opinionated and a little off the charts at times, but she can see a train wreck coming on when she sees it. Mileys father said he was proud of his daughter, and that he recognised she was coming into her own as a woman or something along those lines. But I do think he needs to intervene there, or at least try to get her to come down for a huddle and rethink things.

    Benedict Cumberbatch is not conventionally handsome but he does have a very sexy voice which makes him more attractive.

    Rihanna reminds me of a Shih-Tzu dog.

    Although I've found that more women than men comment on her sexiness

    I accosted him in that chipper beside the Olympia telling him how much I fancied him (early 20s - drunk and foolish), he hugged me then tried to give me a drunken kiss. How can you not say that was romantic?
