There were such few roles for women in movies in the 80s. If they were young teen to mid 20 year old actors now they'd have been staring and Co staring in various movies and TV shows.

[NamerOfStars]

Good options. Of those listed, I'd say Jennifer or Phoebe, but I feel obliged to put in a word for Elisabeth Shue. More of a "cute" vibe than a "hot" one, sure, but consider this: the 80's was the heyday of women's fashion featuring big pointy shoulder pads, because apparently nothing is more attractive than a woman who looks like one of the Green Bay Packers in drag (I can only assume that by 1980, the LA air was about 40% cocaine). And yet, if you watch Adventures in Babysitting...

She still looks good. I have to question whether any of the women on your list could pull that off.

[Leopard23]

I always thought Jeniffer Grey was in that movie adventures in babysitting.
For some reason I always thought Tiffani Amber Thiessen and Danica McKellar were the same chick

[Weapon77]

Annette O'Toole or Phoebe Cates for the hottest. Brooke Shields was more just gorgeous without being sexual until she got older when she was a MILF on Hannah Montana lmao

[Leopard23]

Annette O'Toole in Cat People. Everyone talked about Natashsa Kazinski in it but for me it was Anette O Toole topless in the changing room and jumping into the pool topless.

[Weapon77]

EXACTLY. She was one of those redheads who somehow just had perky tits. Jenny Jacques and Gillian Jacobs are 2 more examples.

[Leopard23]

I always preferred Alison Brie of Gillian Jacobs. Thora Birtch in American Beauty had an amazing set.

[Weapon77]

I meant Gillian Anderson from X-Files! I literally only said Jacobs because I had just watched Community lmao Jacobs is ok, but Anderson is WAY different.

And yes, Alison Brie is not necessarily the hottest, but she is great at that sultry vibe

[Weapon77]

Never seen American Beauty, so I'll have to try it

[Orion76]

Gillian Anderson is me wife leave her alone

[Orion76]

Did womens pelvic area evolve since the 80s bay watch era looking at Ericas picture for example is it just me or that elongated pelvic area well elongated everything down there is very unattractive.

[Leopard23]

@Orion76 just small hips, big tits, small ass. She was basically Pamela Anderson b4 there was a Pamela Anderson

[Orion76]

True lol

[Leopard23]

@Orion76 though there were a lot of great babies in Baywatch, yasmine Bleeth, Carmen Electra. Nicole eggbert was my favourite

[Weapon77]

@Orion76 Women's skelatal and muscle structures haven't really changed since then. It's more that so many women are fat now that it's almost impossible to see their actual figures! Same for a lot of men to be fair

[Orion76]

The fashion style too has changed for example in the 70s and while all men looked like shit and like they could use a shower girls looked stunning.

[Leopard23]

@Orion76 a lot to be said about this. Basically all a girl has to do to be top tier is terms of attractiveness is not be fat.

[Weapon77]

Good point about the fashion. Tons of girls now intentionally dress to look ugly. Or at least they intentionally try to dress masculine, which obviously doesn't suit them.

[Orion76]

Unfortunately it’s becoming more and more the concept of masculinity is that men should be greasy fuzz balls that stink even some women think you are gay if you purchase some skin and grooming products I feel sorry for them.

[Emiliamazing]

@Weapon77 great movie in our opinion!

[DaisyM23]

absolutely love jennifer connelly, only seen her in a few things but she was amazing in labyrinth

[Leopard23]

She played the dream girlfriend well in a lot of movies. You know the 80s movie where nerdy guy wins the attentions of a stunning Jennifer Connelly

[DizzyDesii]

Jennifer and Brooke were always pretty and Jen still is. The rest never were

[Orion76]

I was in love with Linda Hamilton from the show Beauty and the beast the character in general but from this list it’s gotta be Brooke Sheilds

[Leopard23]

Terminator 1 for me.

[Orion76]

Agree she was cute there too, but her character in that show is more my style she still was a bad ass but in a more girly way lol

[Titanic1912]

Definitely Phoebe Cates! I saw her take her bikini top off and expose her boobs in Fast Times At Ridgemont High. That is my favorite nude scene ever.

[Leopard23]

Seen her in that movie Paradise showering

[Titanic1912]

Where can I watch that movie for free?

[Leopard23]

123 movies

[loveslongnails]

This isn't a contest. It's Phoebe Cates or Jennifer Connelly. They are by far the two hottest women on this list.

[Leopard23]

Funny because I was recently watching Some girls do, can't belong I never say that movie. Connelly gorgeous in it.
Phoebe Cates in Paradise.

[OfMiceandMen]

I liked Jennifer Connelly most, among those women you list above. In the 90's and early 2000's it was Elisha Cuthbert for me.

[OlderAndWiser]

The pool scene in Fast Times At Ridgemont High is absolutely unforgettable! Phoebe, I want to have your babies!

[AngryCarl2]

Probably someone such as Mia Sara or Michelle Pfeiffer.

[Leopard23]

Mia Sara for sure.

[gorydetails]

Phoebe Cates. The most rewound piece of VSH tape in history

[Leopard23]

Agreed you ever see her in that movie Paradise. I'm convinced the director made a remake of the blue lagoon just to see her naked

[AviatorTom]

Of those choices, I picked Lea, but I really had a thing for Olivia Newton-John, may she rest in peace now.

[Emiliamazing]

Jennifer is very attract in the photo you supplied 😊

[Sevenpointfive]

stacey fergson, elizabeth shue and kim catrall

[xoxosilentgirl]

brooke shield oh my !! she’s so freakin stunning. Also if i can add one more to the list, Liv Tyler.

[Leopard23]

Liv Tyler for sure but she's a 90s girl

[Leopard23]

https://youtu.be/kSmiSmoDJIk

[xoxosilentgirl]

ahh i didn’t know that, but yeah if this abiut 90’s girl, liv tyler and alicia silverstone are a must in list

[Anonymous]

Lea Thompson in "All the right moves" hands down. It's been suggested that Lea can't act but they captured the awkward teenage first time experience perfectly.

[shortster]

Ms. Pretty in Pink, Molly Ringwald.

[notwoke]

ah, the 80's, when the models were actually hot and not chosen based on "inclusion". Can I go back?

[SnowedIn]

Brooke Shields

[menina]

I only know Jennifer Connelly and Brooke Shields. And I think Brooke Shields is prettier.

[HippieVeganJewslim]

Brooke. Love her eyes. Many others I couldn’t even see the face, so how can that be hot?

[Likes2drive]

I see three of them so far, 1,2, and 6

[Leopard23]

Not mart mcfly's mom?

[Likes2drive]

She wasn’t bad , just not my type

[4ngelic]

brooke & jennifer

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Brooke Shields
