35. Ellen DeGeneres
Born January 26, 1958
Why She Sizzles: While she’s not a conventional sex symbol, Ellen’s incessant wit and endearing quirkiness are ubersexy in our book.

When We First Fell in Love:  Her ABC sitcom Ellen was one of the most incisive, observant programs on TV.

Career Highs:
  Her daytime TV talk show The Ellen DeGeneres Show is a critical and commercial success.  Probably because she can get audience members to dance like this.
Her personal life’s going great, too: in 2008, she wed beauty Portia DeRossi.

Career Lows:
  Her Ellen character’s coming out was a “jump the shark” moment. After the character revealed she was a lesbian, the show’s ratings never quite recovered.

“Work”: Are you kidding?
