I'd be very torn -- 80s musicians have a strong appeal -- but I realized that Badass Chicks Who Can Kick Your Ass would logically have to include Claudia Christian at least on B5.

And then there's Nichelle Nichols (link to sadly-abbreviated gallery):


And at this point my arguments start to look awfully like the ones I did for hot women of sci-fi, because what I'm really into is more or less sci-fi anyway. But, uh. Anyway, everyone should vote for Badass Chicks.

I voted 80's musicians, but was sorely tempted by Pirates.
In either case I hope you include a whole-lotta- Adam Ant!!!
Need inspiration?
Just look here... http://www.antfan.com/gallery/main.php
Just poke around in the Adam Ant Images section- I think you'll find it worthwhile.

I love badass chicks, but I pledged my vote to Bollywood for petrifiedforest who changed her vote for me. And I forgot to vote in last months poll.

Let's see what I've got on hand...





















And there's more where that came from baby.

*has voted Top Gear*

I couldn't vote for anything else when there's the Bugatti Veyron, Eurofighter Typhoon, Aston Martin DB9, Jaguar XKR (2003) and Boeing Apache Longbow... *drools quietly*

And there's the SIARPCs... *koff* Simon Pegg *koff*

(also we could have more Emma Peel and Zoe, but I'm trying to be fair...)



LEELA!!!



Ace!

Uh, so most of these are former Rent castmembers? I am biased, sorry.


Idina Menzel (Rent, Wicked, The Wild Party)


Taye Diggs (Rent, Wicked, being naked in that movie once)


Tracie Thoms (Rent, some tv shows?)


Jesse L Martin (Rent, Law&Order)


Eden Espinoza (Wicked, Rent, BKLYN, which was a really terrible show, but it's okay)


Sebastian Arcelus (Rent, Wicked, Jersey Boys, and having this picture show up when you google him, which is of me and him in 2004, so that is kind of weird.)


Raul Esparza (Company, Taboo, tick tick Boom, basically being amazing and my favorite ever)


Norbert Leo Butz (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Wicked, Rent, has an amazing name, once took a picture with me where he looked like a turtle)


Sherie Rene Scott (Aida, Rent, Last 5 Years, The Little Mermaid)


Johnathan Groff and Lea Michellle (Spring Awakening, and Lea is going to be in Glee on FOX)


John Gallagher Jr (Spring Awakening, apparently plays the banjo)


Neil Patrick Harris (Rent, Assassins, Dr Horrible, generally being amazing)


Karen Olivo (Rent, In The Heights, West Side Story, once I saw her make out with Matt Caplan and it was kind of weird, but they're married now, so that's cool.)


Cheyenne Jackson (Alter Boyz, All Shook Up, Xanadu, makes me very nervous because of his handsomeness)

I AGREE. And I'm adding to your picspam too, but this picture is too huge to link, but worth it. (as is this one)

MOAR Idina:







Also Hugh Jackman (Boy from Oz counts)



And Tim MUTHAFUCKIN' Curry:



Also the Lady of the Lake...but mostly Tim Curry.



Patti LuPone!

Tim is always awesome. Always.

It actually got better this year, partly due to a complex villain with a hot bod sad story and an almost total lack of Pining Over Lana.

(Reply to this) (Thread)

I'm afraid your mini-picspam needs more Ollie.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

YES.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Nope, still not convinced at all we need more superheroes. ;)

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Who is new bad guy, and who is girl who looks disturbingly like Sikozu from Farscape (4th photo down)?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Not Badass Chicks! Men get objectified little enough as it is! Unless we get a Male Jeps Needing Rescue sub-spam :D

(Reply to this) (Thread)

Yes, please.

This! This!

I may think Lena Headey is one of the hottest women alive, but dude, I could really use a menz-only picspam this time.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

A vote for Broadway stars or superheroes is a vote for THIS guy:

(Reply to this) (Thread)

Also, if we have to have Badass Women, this woman better be on the list, as she is the hottest woman alive (also possesses pretty much an entire career playing badass women.):





Leonidas made me do it. He's still jealous I posted Raoul first. :P

(Reply to this) (Thread)

I'm sorry, Desperate Housewives and women who kick ass and superheroes! But my vote goes TEAM TOP GEAR.

One can also call them TEAM INCREDIBLY HOMOEROTIC:















Team Top Gear is also TEAM LABRADOODLE.









They are also TEAM STIG:





They are also TEAM HOT WIVES:









And most importantly, Team Top Gear is TEAM WINNERS OF HEAT'S WEIRD CRUSH AWARDS OF 2006, 2007 and 2008:

(Reply to this) (Thread)

*fans self* Between the sexy cars and sexy hosts and sexy Stig and that last picture where Jeremy looks like he's about to break down into a wibble tantrum unless someone gives him cookies hugs I have to vote Top Gear.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

*is triumphant*

Don't forget the sexy Stars In A Reasonably Priced Cars :D

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I have utterly succumbed to the charms of Top Gear. And also Richard Hammond. (God, his wife really is incredibly cute.)

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Here, have some more of Hammond and his wife being cute while he tries to sell us his On The Edge book. And here's one for As You Do, in which Mindy Hammond is made of even more win.

So, after posting my comment last night, it occured to me that my number one current obsession also counts as a Broadway star! I mean, kind of. He was in the touring and LA casts of Wicked and Bernard Telsey said in an interview that he wants him to be in Spiderman on Broadway! That totally counts, right? So, ladies and gentlemans, may I please submit, for your pleasure, Monsieur Adam Lambert!

(Reply to this) (Thread)

A Top Gear picspam would also involve the Stars in the Reasonably Priced Cars. Some of these stars were quite hot indeed:


Alan Davies


Billie Piper


David Tennant


Davina McCall


Eddie Izzard


Ellen MacArthur, not only a fast sailor, but also the fastest on the old Suzuki Liana board.


Ewan McGregor


Helen Mirren


James Blunt, who is able to drive a tank.


Jay Kay, currently the fastest on the Chevrolet Lacetti board.


Jennifer Saunders


Joanna Lumley


Jodie Kidd


Kristen Scott Thomas


Patrick Stewart


Sabine Schmitz, who wasn't technically a Star in a Reasonably Priced Car, but she was pretty damn awesome when she drove around the Nurburgring in a van in a little over ten minutes.


Simon Pegg


Stephen Fry


Will Young, who spent most of the interview flirting with Jeremy Clarkson.

Top Gear GAVE ME a severe crush on James Blunt. *hangs head with shame* Such is the Power of Top Gear!

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I couldn't give a rat's arse about his music, but the interview was awesome!

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

The interview was beyond awesome. I did the groan + facepalm combination move the minute Clarkson introduced him. However, when he mentioned ebaying his sister - I squeed. Internet!Evil has a very strange effect on me.

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY NEXT WEEK. MAKE SURE THERE ARE PICTURES OF RICHARD ARMITAGE THE BRITISH ACTOR NOT THE AMERICAN POLITICIAN SOMEHOW AND I WILL BE HAPPY.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Since the tide seems to be swinging in favor of Kick Ass Chicks (next time, Broadway, next time!), I would like to offer up:

The Closer's Kyra Sedgewick, who will kick your ass POLITELY


and a tinhat inclusion of Sharon Small, who will kick your ass with a stick of dynamite an emergency flare
