holy crap. @BobPSU92 may not be heard from for a week. ;)

Ann-Margret is beautiful, and I would vote for her over just about any contestant. However, Penelope Cruz is, IMHO, even more of an all-time beauty than is Ann-Margret. Plus, I always go by the pics posted, and IMHO, the pics of Cruz are better than the pics of Ann-Margret.

This matchup could have been a semi-final or a final -- really excellent quality!

My vote goes to Penelope Cruz in this matchup.

I don’t know if AM is a natural red head but that was the tie breaker for me!

If the facial expressions in pic 3 and 4 of AM don't move ya and get your mind going, you are dead downstairs.

From a modern perspective, Cruz's pics are better. But they don't make me feel like she wants to "go" the same way Ann does. So I went Ann.

Finally you people are on the right side of one of these match-ups. AM is a first ballot hall of famer. At in her 70s she was wreckable...


Love this pic.

Based on these photos I had to go with Penelope. And I still say that first photo is not Ann-Margret.

That photo is identified online as Ann so I cannot blame Midnighter. However, having compared a number of photos of her right ear with this photo, I agree. The 1st photo is not Ann-Margaret.

I think it is her fair.

The style of her hair, to me, indicates this.

I've seen family member photo's where two pictures of the same family member, look totally different and you'd swear they are of two different people.

I volunteer to contact her and find out for sure. I will have my people call her people and arrange a dinner meeting. I hope my wife won't mind. Ann is nearly 81 and this is Board business. :)

Don't you recall years ago that she and her people put out a statement against fair enterprises for running sweatshop in China and McKees Rocks sir?

She may be hostile to direct contact.

Better let me handle her with Elvis music, flowers, and candle's fair!

i love you elvis GIF by Maudit

C'mon Tom, the point is one lady had much better taste in celebrity boyfriends.....in addition to be much sexier than her opponent!

First, I've stated many times that I base my vote solely on the pics presented in the poll. I could care less who any of the contestants dated, what their political or religious views are, etc.

Second, I find Penelope Cruz to be far sexier than Ann-Margret. That doesn't make me right or make me wrong; it's just my personal opinion.

Returning to the dating issue, as I mentioned, I don't really care one way or the other about it when it comes to voting in a poll. I will note that it's kind of picking and choosing your data points to make this an Elvis vs. Cruise issue. Actresses and actors have a long history of striking up relationships with those they meet on the sets of movies. Ann-Margret reportedly dated the following actors:

Peter Mann
Vince Edwards
Ty Hardin
Gardner McKay
Eddie Fisher
Elvis
Roger Smith (who she ended up marrying)

She also dated a number of producers, casting directors, etc., like:
Burt Sugarman
Jack Gilardi
Lou Adler

Penelope Cruz dated the following actors:

Matthew McConaughey
Josh Hartnett
Tom Cruise
Javier Bardem (who she ended up marrying)

She also dated a filmmaker:
Tomas Obermaier

You could compare different actors from the respective lists, and draw a different conclusion, if that's what you were basing your decision on.

Anyway, Ann-Margret is gorgeous, and as I indicated in my initial post in this thread, against almost anyone but Penelope Cruz, I'd probably be voting for her.

Tom, thank you for leaving me off those lists. If the need arises to create similar lists for other poll participants, I appreciate your discretion then as well.

I knew that you had been on the list for both actresses, so it was a wash from an arguments sake. ;)
