Born in Berkeley, hot as hell, statuesque blonde Rebecca Romijn is one fine Dutch American. She's getting up into cougar territory (born on Nov. 6, 1972), but she'll always be a legend to her fans.

She spent one year at UC-Santa Cruz before being discovered as a model, and it wasn't long before she was doing the swimsuit issue for Sports Illustrated and working as a feature model for Victoria's Secret. I'm a big fan of her work in both places... but she'll always be a Hall of Fame hottie for her body-painted work as "Mystique" in the X-Men movies.

Here's a hot quote after her movie Femme Fatale, for Elle magazine: "You know, in my early twenties I wondered if I was interested in women and so I kind of, well ... did my homework. [grins] And it turns out, I'm pretty straight.". Who doesn't love the girls that take their homework seriously?
