Laura Dern. Dern isn't one of those women whose hotness jumps out at you like, say, Alexis Bledel. Bledel just looks like a movie and TV star, or a Tiger Beat cover girl.
Dern has more of that Maggie Gyllenhaal thing going on, wherein she looks like a regular person, just who every now and then manages to look like a pinup.
Dern most recently appeared as Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris in the HBO film, "Recount." I haven't seen it, but the film was nominated for 11 Emmys, including a nod for Dern. A role in "Jurassic Park IV" is also said to be in the works.
Now married to musician Ben Harper (that's right, she moans, "Oh Ben," when she...oh hell, I'm not gonna finish, I'm better than that...no I'm not) and a mother.
She was quoted recently as having said
"It's really fun to act like a bimbo. But it's fun to act like a bimbo only when people know that you really aren't one.
Andie MacDowell
Is she worth it? When she's in a good film ( Short Cuts, Sex, Lies & Videotape), MacDowell can actually be quite a winning actress. I've often said that I consider Groundhog Day to be the first Bill Murray movie in which I bought the romance.
When she's in a bad movie though (Bad Girls)...she can't help.
She has got nice laugh lines around her eyes...
...and her nipples appear to be made out of adhesive, which must come in handy.
MacDowell joins Sharon Stone, Michelle Pfeiffer and others in trying to stay sexually desirable (in Hollywood) after 50. I don't know if this'll help that or hurt it, but a male colleague from her modeling days has recently published a memoir, in which he reportedly kisses-and-tells about a night they spent together.
