Christina Hendricks

[ponytrot]

Just dropped by to give my appreciation for her acting, and to say that she's so gorgeous, GORGEOUS!

What a face, and what a figure!

 

[NakedIfIWantTo]

^I know...she is a woman who makes me want to be a man. Nuff Said!

 

[Northern Star]

The cover is fantastic but I wish they would lay off the photoshop
I love the idea that other women chose her......I think her appeal is just universal, as on TV nowadays we just don't see women who look like her.
And she is certainly all woman.

Such a shame with the photoshopping of her face - other than that she looks amazing And very inspirationel when you have curves like that yourself

Christina Hendricks is looking better than ever on the May 2010 cover of Esquire.
The 34-year-old Mad Men actress, aka Joan Holloway, reportedly won the mag’s best-looking woman contest. She won 30 percent of the best-looking vote, followed by Victoria’s Secret angel Adriana Lima (17%) and and Megan Fox (14%).

She's incredible.

I have no idea what they did to her face. At first glance I thought it was Julianne Moore.

But the body definitely screams Joan .

The article in her words

We love your body. If we're in love with you, we love your body. Your potbelly, everything. Even if you're insecure about something, we love your body. You feel like you're not this or that? We love your body. We embrace everything. Because it's you.
Speaking of your body, you don't understand the power of your own smell. Any woman who is currently with a man is with him partly because she loves the way he smells. And if we haven't smelled you for a day or two and then we suddenly are within inches of you, we swoon. We get light-headed. It's intoxicating. It's heady.
We remember forever what you say about the bodies of other women. When you mention in passing that a certain woman is attractive — could be someone in the office, a woman on the street, a celebrity, any woman in the world, really — your comment goes into a steel box and it stays there forever. We will file the comment under "Women He Finds Attractive." It's not about whether or not we approve of the comment. It's about learning what you think is sexy and how we might be able to convey it. It's about keeping our man by knowing what he likes.
We also remember everything you say about our bodies, be it good or bad. Doesn't matter if it's a compliment. Could be just a comment. Those things you say are stored away in the steel box, and we remember these things verbatim. We remember what you were wearing and the street corner you were standing on when you said it.
Never complain about our friends — even if we do. No matter how many times we say a friend of ours is driving us crazy, you are not to pile on. Not because it offends us. But because it adds to the weight that we carry around about her.
Remember what we like. When I first started dating my husband, I had this weird fascination with the circus and clowns and old carnival things and sideshow freaks and all that. About a month after we started dating, he bought me this amazing black-and-white photo book on the circus in the 1930s, and I started sobbing. Which freaked him out. I thought, Oh, my God, I mentioned this three or four weeks ago and talked about it briefly, but he was really listening to me. And he actually went out and researched and found this thing for me. It was amazing.
We want you to order Scotch. It's the most impressive drink order. It's classic. It's sexy. Such a rich color. The glass, the smell. It's not watered down with fruit juice. It's Scotch. And you ordered it.

Stand up, open a door, offer a jacket. We talk about it with our friends after you do it. We say, "Can you believe he stood up when I approached the table?" It makes us feel important. And it makes you important because we talk about it.
No shorts that go below the knee. The ones almost like capri pants, the ones that hover somewhere between the kneecap and the calf? Enough with those shorts. They are the most embarrassing pants in the world. They should never be worn. No woman likes those.
Also, no tank tops. In public at least. A tank top is underwear. You're walking around in your underwear. Too much.
No man should be on Facebook. It's an invasion of everyone's privacy. I really cannot stand it.
You don't know this, but when we come back from a date, we feel awkward about that transition from our cute outfit into sexy lingerie. We don't know how to do this gracefully. It's embarrassing. We have to find a way to slip into another room, put on the outfit as if it all happened very easily, and then come out and it's: Look at me! Look at the sexy thing I've done! For you, it's the blink of an eye. It's all very embarrassing. Just so you know.
Panties is a wonderful word. When did you stop saying "panties"? It's sexy. It's girlie. It's naughty. Say it more.
About ogling: The men who look, they really look. It doesn't insult us. It doesn't faze us, really. It's just — well, it's a little infantile. Which is ironic, isn't it? The men who constantly stare at our breasts are never the men we're attracted to.
There are better words than beautiful. Radiant, for instance. It's an underused word. It's a very special word. "You are radiant." Also, enchanting, smoldering, intoxicating, charming, fetching.
Marriage changes very little. The only things that will get a married man laid that won't get a single man laid are adultery and whores. Intelligence and humor (and your smell) are what get you laid. That's what got you laid when you were single. That's what gets you laid when you're married. Everything still works in marriage: especially intelligence and humor. Because the sexiest thing is to know you.

She's barely recognisable on the cover. I only knew it was her because of the boobs! The melon picture should've been the cover. I'm so glad she won, anyway. She is so much better than boring Adriana Lima and skanky Megan Fox.

 

[HeatherAnne]

Such a bombshell, and I love her writing too!

 

[NakedIfIWantTo]

Oh.My.Sex.God.

 

[jennifer~]

I only know her as "YoSafBridge" from Firefly, but she's absolutely... radiant. I just don't think I'd like Mad Men, but I adore her--and I'm glad the show's given her such exposure.

 

[misspistol]

Ahhh, be still my heart, she is PERFECT.

 

[Meg]

I feel like they photoshopped her chest in quite a few pictures....I don't know. It looks a bit wonky in some shots....

 

[Ashcottmanor]

I like the second two photos the best. I love her personality, she is so great!

 

[Fabulyss]

I only know her as "YoSafBridge" from Firefly, but she's absolutely... radiant. I just don't think I'd like Mad Men, but I adore her--and I'm glad the show's given her such exposure.

It's the greatest show in the history of television... seriously!

 

[NakedIfIWantTo]

^totally agree!

 

[aycotqone]

I never recognized her on the cover but the pics are fabulous. The woman is a goddess!

 

[meanced]

She's incredible.

I couldn't agree more. The pictures from Esquire are amazing.

 

[Northern Star]

Hell those Esquire pics are unreal Va va voom.
This girl is just amazing and I can't wait for the new series of Mad Men, where it seems like she is gonna be back in the show full time again.
