2. Hmmm....
John Mayer and Jessica Simpson, although I'm not a big fan of either, but damn he looks good in the new Gap ads. BTW, they are no longer. Surprise!

Evan Rachel Wood and Marilyn Manson. He says she is his soulmate, which hey, who am I to judge?

Ashton Kutcher and Demi----I'm happy for them.

24. You beat me to it. That's the only one I could think of.
I got to meet Eve when she was doing "The Good Body" on Broadway. (and Gloria Steinhem who was there for a special audience talk-back session that evening) I actually liked that better than "The Vagina Monologues." And I must say I was surprised how small dressing rooms are.

21. Michelle Rodriguez & Kristanna Loken



Michelle Rodriguez, who can be seen in the popular TV-series "Lost", and who has earlier starred in Girlfight, Resident Evil, and Blue Crush, is in a relationship with Terminator 3 actress Kristanna Loken, according to the US gay and lesbian magazine "The Advocate". This is, for me, the hottest lesbian celebrity couple ever. I've always found Michelle Rodriguez very attractive, and she must obviously have great taste in women if she hooks up with the beautiful Kristanna. I now look forward a lot to watching the vampire movie BloodRayne which they both star in.


The Advocate, Nov 15th, 2006:
"MICHELLE & KRISTANNA IN LOVE!"

Kristanna Loken doesn't want to keep quiet about her relationship with sexy star Michelle Rodriguez. Who would?

As we sat downstairs in her Los Angeles home, upcoming Advocate cover girl Kristanna Loken—the smoldering star of Terminator 3—found an adorable way of letting us know that she’s involved with her equally sexy BloodRayne costar Michelle Rodriguez. At first Loken, 27—who has a recurring role as lover of Shane (Katherine Moennig) on Showtime’s The L Word this season—affirmed that she’s in a relationship but wouldn’t specify the name or gender. Then we mentioned the tantalizing stories Loken has told in past interviews about getting tight with Rodriguez when they filmed BloodRayne in Romania. Here’s what happened next.

What about all the stuff that was said about you and Michelle on the shoot?
There is the $64,000 question. Um…I don’t even know how to answer that.
It seems like you both had a lot of fun partying.
Uh-huh.
OK, your silence says volumes.
Just don’t look upstairs, OK?
Ooh, OK. You don’t want me to print that?
You can print it. The very hot housekeeper. No, just joking.


Rodriguez, 28, star of Girlfight, The Fast and the Furious, Blue Crush, and TV’s "Lost", is filming in Seattle. Her representative declined to comment. The Advocate wishes these two vital young stars all the best.

39. Gomez Addams is step-father of Samwise Gamgee




"Astin was born in Santa Monica, California. He is the son of actors Patty Duke and John Astin, although his biological father is Michael Tell, a music promoter and writer of Jewish heritage who divorced Patty Duke shortly before her marriage to Astin.<2><3> At the time of his birth, it was widely assumed that his biological father was Desi Arnaz, Jr., although this has been stated as incorrect. Astin is the older brother of Mackenzie Astin, also an actor (in The Facts of Life)."
