Amanda Seyfried (No.92)

WHY AMANDA SEYFRIED IS No.92

Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg and WikiLeaks’ Julian Assange are getting all the credit for dictating the way this past year played out, but for our money, filmmaker Atom Egoyan was the most influential man of 2010 (but in a very different way). He’s the visionary responsible for getting the voluptuous starlet Amanda Seyfried to take her top off in his erotic thriller Chloe. In it, Seyfried plays the beguiling prostitute charged with seducing Julianne Moore’s husband, played by Liam Neeson. What ensues is a visual cacophony of exposed skin, girl-on-girl makeouts and a coming-out party (pun intended) for the most aesthetically intriguing actress in Hollywood. Sure, the storyline was a little weak, but that’s not why we went on opening night. The wide-eyed Seyfried can next be seen as the eponymous heroine in Catherine Hardwicke’s Red Riding Hood. Your mother’s fable this is not.
