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^^^!!!
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.
