I was mistaken. I was thinking of "Diamonds are Forever" where two women in bikinis fight with James in a swimming pool. Their names were Bambi and Thumper.

I've long been a fan of Sara Evens' beauty but IMHO, no female Country artist can top Shania Twain in her heyday...although Carrie is a close second
I posted my current crushes a few pages back. However, I started thinking about early crushes from when I was a kid. Probably my first crush was Diane Parkinson from The Price Is Right. I used to watch in anticipation of her wearing a bikini during the showcase showdown!

Evelyn Taft! I had to google it; I never remember her name. CBS 2 weather girl. Google it; you'll see
I'll include some unmentioned names:
Sophia Loren (enough said)
Elizabeth Taylor
Mary Ure, "Where Eagles Dare"
Claudia Cardinale, "The Professionals"
Nichelle Nichols, Star Trek's Uhura (see "Mirror, Mirror") - shoot, most of the cast & guests, too.
Good place to give a shoutout for mini-skirts, bonus for knee-high or thigh-high boots, in black or white. Can be in movies, tv or real life, since any adult is a star looked up to by a 2 year old. Guess we can add cheerleaders here too, got a kid to look up at a ball game & ask what's going on.
Peggy Lipton, The Mod Squad - I think she looks even better as she aged. See "Twin Peaks".
Josie & The Pussycats - loved all 3! The mean skunk-haired one taught me being pretty is not = being beautiful.
Barbara Streisand, "The Owl & the Pussycat" - was running around playing when it was on tv, but I paid attention when I saw her legs near the end. I remember reading the credits for the spelling of her name & listening to the adults talk about her.
Shirley Jones - she was why I watched more than the opening credits to "The Partridge Family". Sometimes. She dropped my mouth when I saw her in a garter years later in "Elmer Gantry".
Miss Crabtree, The Little Rascal's teacher - wanted her to be my teacher when I was old enough to start school. You know I must have been little.
Mary Jane - sorry, Spidey. She tempted me to violate the Gentleman's Code of Conduct.
Karen Valentine, Room 222
Love, American Style - I stayed up w my Uncle (esp the tall brunette - Tracy Reed? Have to look her up)
Rita Moreno, The Electric Company "Hey you Guysss!" Also in West Side Story.
007 - we'll just say all of the films
the women of "Our Man Flint", fun 007 spoof
Suzanne Pleshette, Bob Newhart Show. Had trouble following the show, but I tried harder when she was speaking.
And the List has continued to grow over time. But cannot be emphasized enough:
Julie Newmar & the catsuit
Barbara Eden & the genie costume
Raquel Welch
Ginger (nowadays I would say Mary Anne, agree 100% w above post)
Diana Rigg
Rita Hayworth pinup photo - took me awhile to learn her name, and to figure out there was colors back when the photos were black & white.
The Price is Right - yes, Dian Parkinson, & the redhead, too, she seemed like she was having fun. Well, all the models. When I found out about the Bob Barker sexual harrassment suits, guess who I rooted for - da bum.
Honorable mentions:
Bill Bixby, Courtship of Eddie's Father - opening credits looked like so much fun I wanted to have a play date w Eddie & his dad.
Brian Keith, Family Affair - see Bill Bixby. Seemed like a patient, nice man, but I wasn't in a rush to play w those kids.
Jack Lord - I was allowed to watch the pilot of Hawaii Five-O, & the first hula dance I saw was captivating. I wanted to visit Hawaii & be Jack Lord's wingman as he showed me the islands and introduced me to beautiful dancers. During kindergarten recess the two favorite games to play in the sandbox was Star Trek & Hawaii Five-O.
Sean Connery - see Jack Lord (aka CIA agent Felix), but the world would be my oyster.
Robert Wagner, It Takes a Thief - a PG Sean Connery.
Sophia Loren (enough said)
Elizabeth Taylor
Mary Ure, "Where Eagles Dare"
Claudia Cardinale, "The Professionals"

Hmmm, now how did I manage to find 2 hot celebrity threads, & post on the wrong one?
Lack of coffee played a role, but the research skills will be chalked up to enthusiasm for the subject.
