Blogmas Day 24: Who would you kiss under the mistletoe?

~ stashy

It’s finally Christmas Eve! 😀

Today is the final collab Blogmas topic, and again, we have Kaily to thank for this one:

If you could be under a mistletoe with anyone who would it be? [and you can’t say your SO]

Well, ok then! 😉

Instead of listing hunky Hollywood men, I’m going to do something different (would you expect anything less from me?) – I’ll list some lady crushes of mine.  For some reason all of my recent girl crushes have been from spy films released this past year – here goes:

Alicia Vikander

She appeared in The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and at the time the only thing I knew about her was that she was dating Michael Fassbender (they’ve since broken up). She is currently starring in The Danish Girl, and she just received TWO Golden Globe nominations. One of the things I like about her is her voice – it’s so sultry.

I had to find a still from the movie The Man from U.N.C.L.E. that included Henry Cavill, because… hello nurse! 😛

Rebecca Ferguson

I was mesmerized by her in Mission Impossible Rogue Nation – she plays a strong female lead, kicking ass while managing to look amazing.

I also like that she’s not some young waif (and I seem to have a thing for Swedes? Alicia Vikander is also Swedish) – I can’t wait to see her in more things.

Léa Seydoux

There’s just something about her that’s really captivating. Only she could convince James Bond to leave the world of espionage… you may also remember her in another spy film – she played an assassin for hire in Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol back in 2011.

How incredible did she look in the train scene from Spectre? I want to know what shade her lipstick was!

And my top pick for kissing under the mistletoe (not from any recent spy films):

Cate Blanchett

She’s just so classy and real! *sigh*  She’s been a long time girl crush of mine, and I know that I’m not alone!

The movie Hanna was on TV the other week, and even while playing a villain, she’s still perfect.

I told my SO about these and he’s totally fine with my picks! 😉  What about you?  Who are your girl crushes?  I think it’s such a weird concept that women can have lady crushes but men can’t have guy crushes without being called names?. 😉

  10. You know, by all standards, Henry Cavill is a very good-looking guy – but I much preferred looking at Alicia in The Man From UNCLE! I love her voice, too. I did find her a bit too dour in the movie, but after having seen it a few more times (ugh, DH loves the movie! hahaha), I like her acting in it a lot better. I really loved her in A Royal Affair – and hey, Mads Mikkelsen is in that, too, so BONUS.

    Rebecca Ferguson made that MI movie for me! She reminds me of an old time movie star. I tell ya, actresses from those old movies were the best: Ingrid Bergman, Myrna Loy, both Hepburns, everyone in All About Eve…

    Cate is also EVERYTHING. LOVE her.

    My biggest girl crush is Eva Green (another Bond girl!), who’s apparently French. I’ll watch anything with her in it, even if it looks bad. Hahahaha! Also, Gillian Anderson.

  11. You hit the nail on the head about Rebecca Ferguson, she definitely has that old timey movie star quality about her!
    I haven’t seen any other movies with Alicia Vikander in it – I’m thinking of seeing Ex Machina, it seems to have good reviews.
    Oooh yes, Eva Green. So sultry!
    They were playing the X-File movies on TMN and I finally watched the 2nd one (I Want to Believe – why did they even MAKE this into a movie?) and Gillian Anderson looks so good in it! I never really looked at her for her appearance when she was on the show – I just saw her as the serious doctor who had to reign Mulder in.
