I generally don’t rate movies on how hot I think the stars are. I don’t even mention it usually. Some critics do. I think that’s a stupid factor in judging how good a movie is. So, just to show I do have a shallow side (and now that I’m single and there’s no one to bitch about it), here are my top 10 hottest female stars in Hollywood as of right now.

More RULES (as always):
1) These are movie stars, not TV stars (sorry Eva Longoria)
2) One or two movies doesn’t cut it. These are true, legit movie actresses
3) Personality or acting ability is NOT taken into account…only looks

10) Keira Knightly
- Probably the strangest looking of all the babes; when I become a filmmaker, I will cast her as a vampire

9) Ashley Judd
- What happened to the rest of her family?

8) Bridgett Moynahan
- wow.

7) Catherine Zeta-Jones
- Here’s one who has slipped in the rankings for me in the past few years, but still gets the blood going.

6) Angelina Jolie
- Here is an example of someone who has really grown on me. I never could understand why guys liked her so much. Then I saw “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” and “Taking Lives;” now I get it.

5) Salma Hayek
- One showing of “Desperado” and I was hooked. I’ve gotten bored with her lately, but DAMN!

4) Monica Bellucci
- I’ve considered moving to Italy for this reason.

3) Jessica Alba
- Another case of needing some time to grow on me. “Sin City” convinced me, and as soon as “Into the Blue” hits DVD, I will be renting it. I’m sure the movie sucks, but watching Alba sashay around in a bikini for two hours won’t hurt my eyes.

2) Penelope Cruz
- She did the right thing in leaving Tom Cruise. Hey, now we’re both single, email me Penelope!

1) Kate Beckinsdale
- Oh…my…God. From “Laurel Canyon” to “Serendipity” to the upcoming sequel to “Underworld,” I am a loyal fan.
