This is such a fun topic on which to contribute. Everyone's lists for the "Top 20 Hottest Actors" seem to have a few commonalities, most notably Johnny Depp, who also has a high priority on my list. If I were to ask my Mother for her favorite "hot" actors, I'm sure George Clooney would be at the top of her list. And for my sister, I think it would be Ed Westwick from The CW's Gossip Girl. Here's my own personal list of hotties.

1. Cary Grant: Mr. Archibald Leach makes my heart palpitate. He's just so charming and sexy!

2. Johnny Depp: It's an undeniable fact that Johnny Depp is HOT! But not only is he gorgeous, he's also very talented and I will be the first person in line for his Alice in Wonderland movie, one of his many Tim Burton collaborations.

3. Christian Bale: Oh, Christian, I have loved you from the moment you started singing in Newsies. I was there when Winona Ryder broke your heart in Little Women, and I was there when you ran down the hallway naked with a chainsaw in American Psycho. If you ever need a Batgirl, please call me!

4. George Clooney: I have to agree with my motherI would never turn down a weekend in Lake Como with George.

5. Robert Downey, Jr.: Even before Iron Man, but sometime after his major bad-boy days, Robert Downey, Jr. became quite a distinguished-looking man. Check out Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang if you need any proof.

6. Colin Farrell: I would love to go to Bruges with Colin FarrellI would love for him to kiss me on one of those boat tours.

7. Colin Firth: Have you seen the wet shirt scene of the BBC Pride & Prejudice?

8. Leonardo DiCaprio: Titanic, William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet, The Departed. Millions agree, Leo is a hottie.

9. Frank Sinatra: Known more for his singing career, Frank Sinatra was an excellent actor, as well. And he had those beautiful blue eyes!

10. Michael Sheen: I know he seems like a strange choice, but the man who's played Tony Blair in two unrelated films is also one sexy vampire in the Underworld series.

11. Robert Pattinson: And speaking of vampires, I think Rob Pattinson from the Twilight film is quite attractive, especially with that spiked hair and his sunglasses.

12. Ryan Reynolds: Though his acting performances are sometimes inconsistent (from Blade III to Chaos Theory), I have a soft spot in my heart for the Ryan Reynolds of Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place.

13. Alan Rickman: Here is a man who, though he's much older than me, makes me swoon with his reserved manner in Sense & Sensibility. The British accent doesn't hurt him, either.

14. Sean Connery: Check out the live-action Disney classic Darby O'Gill and the Little People to see a pre-James Bond Sean Connery. And he's gorgeous even today!

15. Cillian Murphy: Is it weird to admit I was even attracted to him in the drag film Breakfast on Pluto?

16. Al Pacino: Ok, at this point you may be noticing that I have a thing for older guys. I really love Al PacinoI think it's his passion for both life and acting that makes him so hot.

17. Marlon Brando: Think On The Waterfront.

And the boys of Gossip Girl round off the list as 18, 19, and 20.

Ed Westwick, Penn Badgley, and Chace Crawford: Gossip Girl is such a fun show; I don't even consider it a guilty pleasure anymore. And these boys are just the icing on the cake!
