BED LIST: JOHN CUSACK
John Cusack--teen hero made good. He's the star of my all-time favorite 80s teen movie, Better Off Dead. Then he had to go and grow up--and I still loved him. Who wouldn't want a Lloyd Dobler-in-the-rain, "In Your Eyes" blaring from the boom box moment with the guy you love? He's the accessible sex symbol, the guy you can believe as a con man (The Grifters), a hit man (Grosse Pointe Blank), or the kooky guy (Being John Malkovich). And yet, he plays that sensitive soul so well. Watch High Fidelity or Serendipity to see what I mean. Love the big brown eyes. Love the voice. Love everything.
DINNER LIST: JEREMY PIVEN
I adore Jeremy Piven. When his short-lived TV show "Cupid" was canceled, I nearly got peeved enough to call the network and chew someone out. Jeremy Piven makes the best sidekick in the world. He's good friends with John Cusack--they've appeared in multiple movies together. He's got a great smile and a great attitude. This is the kind of guy you can hang around with at the ballpark (he's a Cubs fan, which is a good thing), talk movies and TV, and laugh at how bizarre the world can get sometimes. Jeremy, the house next door is for sale. Wanna move in?
