Carleen
Anderson
One time Brand New Heavies fronts woman, and a fine solo artist,
Carleen has one of the most amazing soul voices to have ever graced
my ears. |
 |
David Attenborough
David Attenborough is the UK's greatest ever naturalist.
Like most people, I have learnt so much about nature because of
this great man. He is one of the greatest ever Britons to
have ever lived. |
 |
Belinda Carlisle
One of the most important artists early on in my life. I
probably wouldn't be the person I am now if it wasn't for me listening
to Belinda. Is that a good or a bad thing though...?
Ha ha! |
 |
Sarah Cracknell
Sarah is just the nicest person to front a band. She's been
a favourite of mine since 1991, and long may it stay that way. |
 |
Claire Danes
My first introduction to Claire was in the classic teen coming
of age drama My So Called Life. She has this natural innocent
charm I just so love about her! |
 |
Nichola Dixon
A very very nice girl who presents the weather on our local BBC
TV news (but she talks so damn quick - slow down! There's
no rush!) |
 |
Kirsten Dunst
Her performance in the film The Virgin Suicides was just the greatest.
Having read the book beforehand, I watched the film with a degree
of caution, but both Kirsten and the film were amazing. |
 |
Carmen Electra
I guess Carmen is here for purely lustful reasons, but I'm allowed
to have my vices, aren't I? |
 |
Jane Fonda
By this I mean Jane Fonda as she looked during her heyday in the
1960's that is. And while she is well old enough to mother,
she was just amazing in the films Cat Ballou and Barbarella. |
 |
Maya
Ford
The bass player from one of my favourite rock bands, The Donnas.
She has my total respect, from one bass player to another.
And she looks amazing too! |
 |
Harrison Ford
Star Wars, Indiana Jones... this man was the greatest action hero
in my childhood. |
 |
Morgan Freeman
Starring in two of my favourite films of all time, Seven and The
Shawshank Redemption, Morgan Freeman is just one of those people
who commands total respect whenever he appears on the screen. |
 |
Deborah Harry
The focal point of one of the most important bands to have ever
existed. A true icon. |
 |
Audrey Hepburn
A stunningly beautiful actress who made some of the greatest films
I have ever loved. |
|
Nick Hornby
Nick is my favourite book author. He is somebody who comes
up with characters I can really relate to in his books. |
 |
Milla Jovovich
A favourite of mine since I first saw a picture of her in 1994!
And her appearance in The Fifth Element was astounding. |
 |
Keira Knightley
She was ok in Bend It Like Beckham (I've still not seen King Arthur),
but look! Isn't she so sweet?! |
 |
Juliette Lewis
Juliette is an actress I have seemed to have admired from the
sidelines for many many years, although she appears to making
a very good name for herself as a musician, in her band Juliette
And The Licks. |
 |
Shaznay Lewis
One quarter of the All Saints, Shaznay was always my favourite
of the group. And I saw her perform on Top Of The Pops once...
and she so small and perfectly formed :-) |
|
Harold Lloyd
My childhood memories included watching Harold Lloyd silent movie
snippets during the afternoon when I came home from school. |
 |
Cerys Matthews
A Welsh lady of the highest pedigree. A distinctive voice
to melt butter, and just an overall important person to me! |
 |
Miss
Hoolie
Yes... the strangely alluring Miss Hoolie from
CBeebies' Balamory. (Essential viewing by the way!)
There's just something about her hair that I'm inexplicably attracted
to... plus she just has this smile on her that makes me smile
too! |
|
Bill Oddie
A one time 'Goodie', and now a very accomplished naturist, Bill
is instantly recognisable anywhere. His authoritative down
to earth presenting style make him a joy to listen to. |
|
Gary Oldman
Many of the films I love have Gary appearing in them... True Romance,
The Fifth Element and Leon to name three. One of the engaging
actors I have ever seen. |
 |
Jo
O'Meara
A former member of S Club 7, Jo just makes me go weak at
the knees! (Ok, I think I've said enough...) |
 |
Idha Övelius Idha
Ovelius
The sweetest voice to have ever come from Sweden. A truly
important person to me, her first album genuinely helped me through
a troubled period earlier on in my life. |
|
John Peel
Along with Mark Radcliffe, another very important BBC Radio 1
DJ who made me go out and buy lots of records. He tragically
died in late 2004 - a titanic loss to radio, TV and the media
in general. |
 |
Liz Phair
A true pioneer of ladies in rock music. Liz is someone who
writes what she thinks, and sings from the heart. |
 |
Gail Porter
She's so small! But she's so cute! (And has a gorgeous
Scottish accent!) |
 |
Natalie Portman
An extremely talented and clever actress, Natalie is just the
greatest. |
 |
Mark Radcliffe
A hugely influential radio DJ in my life. It's your fault
that I spent so much money on records that you played with Lard
on your BBC Radio 1 evening show! |
 |
Winona Ryder
I love Winona Ryder! Forever young, just like me ;-) even
films like Mermaids were great (even though I know I should hate
that kind of film). Every film she has appeared in has been
Winona's to steal (no pun intended!). |
 |
Michaela
Strachan
I guess this is part childhood thing, as she kinda
always looked great to me then... but for some reason I think
she's way more gorgeous now. She has this really ace smile
about her that I really love. In fact, I will watch TV programs
because she is in it. |
 |
Tank Girl
Yes, really. |
 |
Charlotte Uhlenbroek
She's always smiling, so I'm always smiling! The most beautiful
zoologist ever seen on TV! (And nigh on impossible to find
decent pictures of on the net, as my crappy head shot demonstrates!) |
 |
Suzanne Vega
True song writing and singing skills are only half the reason
why Suzanne is so gorgeous. It's also her genuine warmness
of her voice and the natural charm she imparts towards her audiences
that make her so great. |
