Which Celebrity Would You Sleep with to Define Who You Are?

Men who fantasize about porn star Jenna Jameson are a very specific type and as different from those who fantasize about, say, saccharine-sweet Meg Ryan, as women who fantasize about Daniel Craig climbing out of the ocean in Casino Royale are different from the ones who fantasize about a stammering, self-conscious Woody Allen are.

Consequently, I believe that the entertainers we dream of being with define our sexual ideals (and peccadilloes). It says everything about who we really are and what we (at least think) we really want. This is why so many people in relationships have made pacts about what celebrities, if given a chance, they're allowed to get a free pass to sleep with. In the end, they’re our defining fantasies, and we want to cling to the idea that they, like our dreams for happiness, could one day come true.

For me, it’s also important to note that I have an unhealthy talent addiction that complicates my otherwise normal fantasizing. In fact, I call myself a talent junkie. That's why I've been fond of keeping what I call my “Top Ten.” Where other people pick one or maybe two celebs to sleep with if given the opportunity, I, Cole Haddon, choose ten. I’m special like that. Today, I thought I'd share this list with you – or at least the first half (the second half will appear tomorrow) – and then ask you to do this: SHARE WITH ME AND FILM.COM READERS THE ONE CELEBRITY YOU'D ASK YOUR PARTNER TO FORGIVE YOU FOR SLEEPING WITH… AND WHY. WHAT DOES THIS SAY ABOUT YOU? (Feel free to name me, even if I’m not a celebrity. I won't mind).

10. Thandie Newton
There is no more beautiful woman in all of Hollywood than Brit Thandie Newton, except the woman currently residing (quite permanently) in my #1 spot. No matter how much work Newton gets or how many high-profile jobs she lands, she can't quite get the respect she deserves, though. If things don’t change soon, I’ll have to bump her from my list. Sorry, I like winners.

Heidi Klum9. Heidi Klum
The creator and host of Project Runway makes this list not for her tremendous beauty, which only improves when pregnant (a state she seems to love). No, Klum is here because of the way she radiates love when she’s around her husband, Seal. I’ve seen it with my own eyes and I want it.


Mandy Moore8. Mandy Moore
Mandy Moore was born in 1984. This means I could legally drink alcohol when she made her music video debut at 14. Since then, she’s made nothing but smart career decisions, transforming herself from ho-hum pop star to one of Hollywood’s hottest young actresses. I’d rank her higher on this list, but I saw License to Wed this summer and it’ll take me a while to get over that.


7. Mary-Louise Parker
Seriously, why is Mary-Louise Parker still not an A-list actress? Sure, she’s the star of Weeds, but like ten people watch that. Myself, I like her because, aside from being cute as a button, there’s something strangely off about her. Like she could be crazy, in that good way (yes, there is a good crazy).

6. Katee Sackhoff
Kara "Starbuck" Thrace, as Katee is known on Battlestar Galactica, is the baddest chick in space. Really. She's a big lesbian icon these days, too, even though there's nothing lesbian about her character. That always confuses me, sort of like what happened with Xena and Lucy Lawless? Whatever the case, Kara is a stunning testament to beauty and strength.

So now, your turn: WHAT CELEBRITY WOULD YOU WANT A FREE PASS TO SLEEP WITH AND WHY?
