Full Name: Emily Jean Stone D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 6/11/88 (-4) Nationality: American Character Ref:Olive Penderghast (Easy A) Notes: Born & bred in Arizona before moving to LA to pursue an acting career aged only 15. Went up against Hayden Pantie.....Panettie........Pantenne.....the cheerleader from Heroes but (obviously) didn't get the gig. Quite glad she didn't as she's proven her acting talents fly far higher than TV standards (sorry, TV, but everyone's already saying it behind your back, at least I have the guts to tell it to your face....). Is soon to play Spidey's first love Gwen Stacey in the upcoming hip reboot, entitled "500 Days Of Spidey". While it's common knowledge how big a fan I was/am of MJ Parker, I do believe my allegiances may change upon the films release as it's quite safe to say I am crushing HARD on Emma Stone right now.... Must-see Moment: Any of them. Breathtakingly pretty in pretty much ANYTHING, but might I suggest watching her dance around her room all weekend singing 'Pocket Full Of Sunshine' in Easy A?
Full Name: Talulah Jane F. R. Riley-Milburn (yeah I'm not saying that...) D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 26/9/85 (-1) Nationality: English Character Ref: Marianne (The Boat That Rocked) Notes: Standard middle-English privileged actress fare - born in Hertfordshire; father was former head of the National Crime Squad, now works as a screenwriter and has written for The Bill. Attended schools with names like 'Haberdasher's Aske's School For Girls'. Studied maths, physics & economics via Open University. now married to the 40-year-old founder of PayPal. In the vein of Mrs Merton, I wonder what first attracted her to multi-billionaire Elon Musk..... Must-see Moment: I must admit, the only thing I've seen her in is The Boat That Rocked; she also played a blonde projection in Inception, but I was too busy having my mind blown by Nolan's masterpiece to notice. She's also appeared in such travesties as 'St Trinians 2: The Legend of Fritton's Gold', and Doctor Who. Something about her in that 60s getup in 'Boat' however really grabbed me. That was a style and a half. Shame we can't go back. Great lips.
Full Name: Carey Hannah Mulligan D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 28/5/85 (-1) Nationality: English Character Ref: Kathy H (Never Let Me Go) Notes: Mother is from Llandeilo in West Wales. Due to her father's job, lived in expensive hotels for eight years whilst growing up. Was rejected by three drama schools on her UCAS form. Temporarily dated Shia "nonononono" LaBeouf. Must-see Moment: When she lost the love of her life to the ultimately inferior Keira Knightley in Never Let Me Go, I wished I'd been written into the book to be the comforting best friend. I would totally complete for her (no innuendo).
LOOKS: 9.2 (the .2 are for her dimples) PERSONALITY: 8.8 WIFEABILITY: 5.0 X-FACTOR: 8.7
Full Name: Emily Olivia Leah Blunt D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 23/2/83 (+1) Nationality: English Character Ref: Elise Sellas (The Adjustment Bureau) Notes: Discovered by an agent while attending a 6th Form college in Surrey. Her father is one of the highest-profile barristers in the UK; her paternal uncle is a conservative MP for Reigate. Used to date Michael Bublé (got a lotta love for ol' Mickey Bubbles); now married to Jim "Big Tuna" Halpert from the US version of the Office, John Krasinski. Must-see Moment: The archetypal English Rose seemed to start off playing bit-parts in US movies, usually as the annoying receptionist or mental best friend - strangely less attractive in those.... But I found her pretty darn hot as a ballet dancing smart-arse in 'The Adjustment Bureau', a film which my friend Andy described as "...a challenging film that makes you ask deep questions, such as 'who that?', 'what's happening?' and 'Eh?!'..."
LOOKS: 8.5 (just look at that photo...wow.) PERSONALITY: 7.4 WIFEABILITY: 3.7 X-FACTOR: 6.9
Full Name: Katherine Heigl D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 24/11/78 (+6) Nationality: American Character Ref: She's only really played one character.... Notes: She's the girl all girls can associate with. Apparently. Started her career as a child model. Raised a in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Hopes to "...find [her] way back to Mormonism when [she] gets older and a little less selfish." Must-see Moment: Any of the films where she plays a loveable but luckless-in-love thirtysomething who just wants to meet the man of her dreams and settle down. She's basically a female me in 10 years. Strangely, although she is breathtakingly beautiful, it's a kind of 'quiet pretty' that it's taken me a few chick-flicks to fully appreciate. I don't wanna oversell her; she's an easy 7 but a potential 8. I can't believe I typed that. What kind of shallow chauvinist have I become?!!
Full Name: Laura Prepon D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 7/3/80 (+4) Nationality: American Character Ref: Donna Pinciotti (That '70s Show) Notes: Was in hit indie flick 'Slackers'. Currently lives in New Jersey (well that's one reason to go there...). Voiced a character in Halo 2 ("Red Headed Marine In Tunnel" - I remember her well....). Seems to have done a lot of Maxim (but then when you look like THAT why wouldn't you??). Currently co-habiting with Christopher Masterson (Francis from Malcolm In The Middle). Must-see Moment: Looks beautiful as a blonde, but won my heart as the redhead nextdoor during, well, every single episode of That '70s Show. Panties! Glorious panties!!
Full Name: Taylor Alison Swift D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 13/12/89 (-5) Nationality: American Character Ref: Herself Notes: Country-pop singer-songwriter and apparently actress. No, I muse admit, she was pretty funny on SNL, and in that terrible RomCom my cinema club friends forced me to watch. She's pretty talented, and dammit if her songs aren't just that little bit catchy. Especially that one about Romeo & Juliet - makes me wanna pump my fist.
Raised as a Baptist - now we're getting somewhere. Wrote a 350-page novel over the summer holidays when she was 12. She's got that 'there's something about that girl but i can't quite put my finger on it' look about her. That I like. Must-see Moment: Being basically attacked by Kanye West. No sorry, that wasn't funny. Well it was, but I felt really sorry for her. Her other great moment was dancing like a lunatic in that terrible movie (which Google has just informed me was called 'Valentine's Day' - I just called it 'The Film With All The Beautiful Women In It' which I think would have helped it sell more tickets but hey, hindsight's 20/20....)
Full Name: Lyndsy Marie Fonseca D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 7/1/87 (-3) Nationality: American Character Ref: Katie Deauxma - Kick-Ass Notes: Seems to be a standard child-actress story. Born in B.F. Nowhere, Middle-America, moved to LA to film a pilot aged only 13. Also plays Ted's daughter on the hilarious US sitcom I totally missed the boat on, 'How I Met Your Mother'. Must-see Moment: Seem to remember some point with pyjamas in Kick-Ass that made me forget about superheroes....
So here we are. Hot Trumps' second ever *SPECIAL*, and I don't think there's anyone more deserving than the beautiful, talented, hilarious Miss Ellen Page. With Zooey off and married and being all musically successful etc (not that I'm at all bitter), I think this little lady might just pip her to my own personal top spot at the moment. Of course, none of the 'Trumps' are in any sort of rank order, and I'll keep my own top 10 to myself...
Full Name: Ellen Philpotts-Page D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 21/2/87 (-3) Nationality: Canadian
Character Ref: Juno MacGuff - Juno Notes: I first saw Ellen portraying pedophile-hunting vigilante Hayley Stark in Hard Candy (2005) in which she was amazing (the bits I could watch, anyway....). Quite a baptism of fire, especially for someone as young as she was; there was probably a risk of her being typecast into roles in 'serious' movies. Luckily, she seemed to want to go on to more light hearted and comedic roles. To then go on to play a mutant, a pregnant teen and a roller-derby queen is more than impressive. According to Wiki, which is of course an irrefutable source of evidence, as a child she enjoyed playing with action figures and climbing trees. It's this tomboy nature combined with her animated acting style and sometimes graceful womanly charm that really caught my attention. That, and the quirky, independent, confident roles she seems to have played in recent times. That's pretty much all I want in a girl. Amazing.
Must-see Moment: 'Whipping it' in the movie, er, 'Whip It'. Which also features some of my other favourite actresses/comediennes (Wiiiiig!!).
BONUS ELLEN PIC:
She sports one of the most beautiful wry-smiles I've ever seen. She was hilarious and amazing on SNL, and therefore hilarious and amazing in real life.
She seems to know what she wants in life, at least as far as the movie roles she accepts, and is about as far removed from her 'Hollywood' peers (Lohan, et al) as it's possible to get, which can only be a good thing.
Probably more likely to be found at a Broken Social Scene gig than some sleazy LA club.
I'd love to spend a day with her exploring the museums and galleries of some city, or maybe jamming out on some 80s-era synths, or just kicking back watching a Seinfeld marathon....
Right after I finished this post I discovered the Google/YouTube 'Search Stories' feature. With memories of Ellen still running around my head, and fully expecting somebody to take legal action, I made this:
Full Name: Kari Elizabeth Byron D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 18/12/74 (+10) Nationality: American
Character Ref: Her beautiful, intelligent, charismatic self! Notes: The ultimate geek-girlfriend?? She's an artist by trade, but is best known for her role as one of Discovery Channel's 'MythBusters'. She's married and just gave birth to a daughter (2009). Must-see Moment:THAT Diet Coke & Mentos FHM shoot. Incidentally, a similar scene was observed all over the world after the issue's release, as thousands of teenage geeks brains simultaneously erupted through their various face holes.....
LOOKS: 7.9 PERSONALITY: 8.6 WIFEABILITY: 5.0 (Married. And she's a vegetarian. DEALBREAKER.) X-FACTOR: 7.0
Full Name: Rashida Leah Jones D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 25/2/76 (+8) Nationality: American
Character Ref: Karen Filippelli - The Office (US) Notes: Actress, model, musician. Daughter of music legend Quincy Jones!! Raised in Bel-Air. Was going to be sister-in-law to legendary rapper Tupac Shakur, but the wedding was suddenly cancelled - not quite sure what happened there.... Dated Tobey Maguire; then got engaged to Mark Ronson in 2003 but neither took. Has also dated Seth "SNL" Meyers and John "Jim Halpert" Krasinsky. Is now dating Jon Faveau (no, not THAT Jon Favreau...). Phew, this girl gets around Hollywood (and I mean that in the least insulting way possible....). Must-see Moment: She's hilarious and beautiful putting up with the equally hilarious Paul Rudd in 'I Love You Man'.
Firstly, just take a minute to bask in the beauty.....
wow.....
Full Name: Emilie de Ravin D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 27/12/81 (+3) Nationality: Australian
Character Ref: Claire Littleton - Lost Notes: French ancestry; 'de Ravin' means 'from the ravine'. Took ballet in her childhood. Was cast to star in the movie version of Onimusha..... Did get married but is now filing for divorce. And I'm trying my absolute hardest not to be happy about that. Must-see Moment: Starred as a dead girl in Rian Johnson's brilliant 'Brick' (2005), but tugs at the heartstrings just right as pregnant castaway Claire in Lost. I shouted 'you idiot!' at my TV when Charlie's drug problems caused their relationship to crash and burn....
Full Name: Nicole Evangeline Lilly D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 3/8/79 (+5) Nationality: Canadian
Character Ref: Kate "Freckles" Austen - Lost Notes: Born into a devout Christian family, she briefly served as a foreign missionary in the Philippines. Speaks French. Once had a job as a flight attendant (with Royal Airlines, not Oceanic...).
Wikipedia reckons she's '...known on the Lost set for being a tom-boy, Christian and 'potty-mouth'...' - pretty much my ideal woman then.... Must-see Moment: Looks great in a dress - see Season 3....
Full Name: Marisa Tomei D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 4/12/64 (+20 - yeah, I know....) Nationality: American
Character Ref: Pam - The Wrestler Notes: I caught that episode of Seinfeld today where George gets set up with Marisa Tomei and....look, I don't care if she's 45, she's beautiful. Look!
I found her picture on an interesting list of +40s Hot Trumps... Many of them would easily make it onto this list... check it out and see what you think!
Full Name: Olivia Jane Wilde (born Olivia Jane Cockburn) D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 10/3/84 (+7 months!) Nationality: Irish-American
Character Ref: Alex Kelly - The O.C. Notes: Originally auditioned for the roll of 'Marissa Cooper' on the O.C. Currently stars in that show House with that retarded bloke off of Blackadder. Was apparently shooed to bed by Mick Jagger as a child - not as unseemly as it sounds... Married Italian-American documentary filmmaker, photographer, flamenco guitar player, and Italian prince 'Tao Ruspoli' in 2003. Used to be a Vegan but has now seen the error of her ways. Good girl. Must-see Moment: THAT bit in the O.C. You know which bit.... The day a million teenage boys' heads simultaneously exploded.
LOOKS: 8.8(i pulled the above image off her wiki page - it's 100% less flattering than anything on Google Images and yet somehow she's 200% more beautiful....) PERSONALITY: 8.0 WIFEABILITY: 2.3 X-FACTOR: 7.9
Full Name: Autumn Alicia Reeser D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 21/9/80 (+4) Nationality: American
Character Ref: Taylor Townsend - The O.C. Notes: Graduated Carlsbad High (I've been there!!). Has appeared in Star Trek: Voyager and also in the Command & Conquer series (Red Alert 3). Enjoys scrapbooking, painting, and playing with her Papillon named Gatsby after the F. Scott Fitzgerald classic. I think we'd get on - kinda... Must-see Moment: Being generally 'Taylor-like' in the O.C. - the kind of neurotic control freak that's so annoying you don't know why you like her, but you want to kick your own ass for doing so.
Again, slightly difficult to find a SFW pic of Autumn - here's the one i WANTED to post....dribble..............but why does she need to do that? Look how pretty she is up there^^^!!!
Full Name: Samaire Rhys Armstrong (Welsh??) D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 31/10/80 (+4 - but you would never guess....) Nationality: American
Character Ref: Anna Stern - The O.C. Notes: Born in Tokyo, Japan to a Scottish father and an Italian mother. Has lived in Japan, Hawaii, Arizona, Malaysia and China. Her father teaches soldiers close combat training, so what do you wanna bet he's taught his little girl a few moves or two - approach with caution! I kid - she seems like a barrel of laughs. Quirky. I dig that. Seems quite level headed. Has some sort of Ally Sheedy thing goin on that makes me go all fourteen again.... Must-see Moment: Holding back the tears whilst bidding Seth Cohen farewell to a musical backdrop of Nada Surf's cover of OMD's 'If You Leave' - i cried, i'm not even ashamed, it was a beautiful moment.
Full Name: Naomie Melanie Harris D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 6/9/76 (+8) Nationality: English
Character Ref: Denise - Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll Notes: Extremely versatile actress; graduated Cambridge with a degree in social & political science. Appeared in a children's drama series 'The Tomorrow People' which I watched and loved as a child - had no idea! Must-see Moment: A toss-up - between running from the undead or growing into a giant Amazonian-like woman and then exploding into crabs... like I said, she's versatile!
Character Ref: Jackie Burkhart - That 70s Show Notes: Born in Chernivtsi, Ukrainian SSR, to a Jewish family. Voices 'Meg' on Family Guy. Seems like she'd have a really really good sense of humour - I'd love to take her to see Ross Noble or someone... Must-see Moment: Kicking ass and giving what I consider to be her best performance yet in the visually stunning 'Book Of Eli'.
Full Name: Katherine Litwack D.o.B.(+/- Pea): 13/6/86 (-2) Nationality: American
Character Ref: Norah Silverberg - Nick & Norah's Movie That Felt Like It Would Go On Until The End Of Time Itself (but I kid...) Notes: A local girl - born and raised in Bryn Mawr!!! (Pennsylvania, that is...). Mother is a poet/speech therapist, father is a molecular pharmacologist. Cool.
Is hot on blogging; has YouTube and Twitter accounts. Doesn't drink or smoke, but likes to play Katamari Damacy - so that'd be our honeymoon sorted.... Must-see Moment: Any of her YouTube videos, really. She seems like a good laugh.
Character Ref - The character that first sparked my attention.
Notes - Any other contributing factors.
Must-see Moment - What to watch for more...
LOOKS - Hopefully self-explanatory...
PERSONALITY - Usually refers to the Character Ref's personality, unless media coverage can allow us to ascertain a more accurate idea of the Trump's real life attributes.
WIFEABILITY - The real life likelihood of being able to marry the Trump - graded by location, any knowledge of values, current romantic involvements etc...
X-FACTOR - The little spark that you can't quite define that makes the subject stand out from the crowd.
Please note that while I 'grade' the entries, all Trumps are exceedingly beautiful, talented, exciting women in their own rights and their values shouldn't be taken out of context. Phew.
About the 'game'....
This game has nothing to do with severe flatulence.
Neither is it about objectifying women.
Okay, maybe it is a little... but it's objectifying their greatest and most admirable traits in the most respectful way possible. They are our mothers. They are our sisters. They are our daughters. And, for a lucky few, they are our shorties, our boos, our biznitches. I mean, er, beautiful and devoted wives.......
Seriously though, I (Peanut) have this well-documented thing for Hollywood girls. I also have a well-documented love of neatly organised lists, so this is like my hot girl nirvana.
