ANGIE DICKINSON: “Antonio Banderas. He’s great-looking and has that wonderful thing called humor, and he’s mature. He’s dazzling.”

WANTED BY: Anne Heche

ANNE HECHE: “Vince Vaughn [her Return to Paradise costar]. He’s old-fashioned in that he’s a true actor; he doesn’t rely on celebrity, as many actors do these days. To me, talent is very sexy.”

CHYNNA PHILLIPS: “My husband [William Baldwin] is definitely the most handsome man I’ve ever laid eyes on.”

ALLY WALKER: “Mel Gibson, because he makes you laugh, and laughter is very seductive to me.”

KATHY NAJIMY: “Jeff Bridges. My first movie ever was with him in The Fisher King. He was so sexy and charming and made me feel so comfortable. At one point he took his T-shirt off because it was wet and asked me to hold it, and I just about buckled down and died.”

AGE: 37

LAST SEEN: Playing politics in ABC’s Spin City

WANTED BY: Kellie Martin

KELLIE MARTIN: “I’m going to have to stick with Michael J. Fox. He’s pretty sexy. It’s that Alex P. Keaton, brainy conservative thing. I go out with a guy who’s a law student, so I like the brainy, conservative thing.”

WANTED BY: Cybill Shepherd

CYBILL SHEPHERD: “I kind of have the hots for Jimmy Smits. He’s just fabulous looking. He’s a kind, gentle man—and strong—and he’s kind of funny, too. I also love Harrison Ford. I hate to choose one. You know who I love? I’ve been looking back at Moonlighting because I’m doing a memoir, and Bruce Willis was fabulous—so funny, so sexy and such a good actor.”

LAUREN HOLLY: “I’d have to go with Harrison Ford, because he’s a total gentleman but you know there’s something raging underneath.”

KATARINA WITT: “Harrison Ford. He’s very muscular and manly but still soft—not so macho. You still feel comfortable with him.”

ANNE BANCROFT: “There is just nobody sexier than Mel Brooks [her husband]. He has the most brilliant, unique brain. He keeps me excited from the moment I wake up in the morning to the moment I go to bed. There’s nothing more exciting than interesting and unique ways of thinking.”

  • WANTED BY: Julia Roberts

JULIA ROBERTS: “I have to go with Sam Shepard [her love interest in 1993’s The Pelican Brief]. He is a poetic think tank, that guy, which I think is incredibly appealing. ‘Sexy’ isn’t really a word that’s in my vocabulary. Sam has this incredible appeal—a very expansive, well-rounded appeal.

PAM GRIER: “Robert De Niro. He’s got a sparkle in his eyes, and that smile.”
