But only if they’re famous. Here’s a list of celebrities I love:
1. Natalie Portman. I have to say that.
2. Zooey Deschanel. I just think she’s really cool.
3. Molly Shannon. I would follow her to the ends of the Earth.
4. Ian McKellen. Gandalf.
5. Martin Freeman. Cute and Hobbity.
6. Jewel. I’ll listen to anything she puts out. Even her 0304 album.
7. Sigourney Weaver. Even if there wasn’t Aliens, there would be Galaxy Quest.
8. Michelle Pfeiffer. The best Catwoman.
9. Nathan Fillion. Kinda like Han Solo, but not currently a grumpy old man.
10. Kristen Bell. Veronica Mars, and now on Heroes. Awesome.
11. Katee Sackhoff. Ass kicker extraordinaire.
12. Drew Barrymore. Body Fuzion.
13. Becki Newton. The best part of Ugly Betty.
14. Amy Sedaris. As moist as a snack cake.
15. Robin Williams. I know, but I’m a sucker for gay Elmer Fudd doing Jack Nicholson impressions.
16. Queen Latifah. What I would give to be her for a day.
17. Emma Watson. They don’t even try to make her look homely anymore.
18. Shohreh Aghdashloo. MILF. Not really, but still.

I love Amy Sedaris. Never heard of number 17 and 18 though.

The actor commentaries on the Strangers with Candy TV Series DVDs are hilarious. Amy’s talkin’ in the Jerri voice, Stephen Colbert is drooling over the school girls, and Paul Dinello is a sweetheart, as always (he once risked his own life to save a dog from drowning)!

How can you not include Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert on your list?
August 21st, 2007 at 2:17 pm
you forgot Christopher Walken!!!!

Where am I on that list? Am I not a celebrity??!

You know…Ian McKellen should be every gay boy’s idol. Aging gracefully, still acting up a storm, smart and confident, with cute boy toys on his arm. And you know he totally was perving on the hobbits. All those visits to the shire…

So are you going to see Sir Ian in King Lear at BAM in September?

OK, DWQ Online - How can you NOT know who Emma Watson is? Have you been hiding under a rock for the last five years? Think two words - Hermione Granger??? She’s finally out of that “homely teenager” phase.
As for Shohreh Aghdashloo, she is only one of the most fabulous actresses that the Middle East has produced in, like, forever! She has most recently had a recurring role on the Fox series “24″ with Keifer Sutherland (yum-o!!), and she received an Oscar nomination for her role in “The House of Sand and Fog” with Ben Kingsley and Jennifer Connelly.
I will certainly give you Sir Ian, but I’m in agreement with Crystal - what about Christopher Walken? I’m totally crushed you didn’t include him.

I love both Sedaris’s and anyone on Ugly Betty! Good list, Craig!

Actually it was this list that started by Jewel rediscovery period this week. I read number 6 and remembered I’d never actually heard 0304, but was convinced that if you liked it, it couldnt be that bad.
And you were right the first time, Foolish Games is her best song (the original album version). You Were Meant For Me is a close second though. And actually, Everything Breaks is an even closer 1.5th
Enough.
