Not a huge update, but this appeared recently on TheDeadBolt.com and I just knew you guys would get a kick out of it! Jami ranked #4 on the top 10, though let’s be honest, what would the 80s have been without Jami Gertz? She’s at least #2, but I think we’d all like to see her take the #1 spot – how about it TheDeadBolt.com?
Not only was Jami Gertz one of the most beautiful girls of the ‘80s, she was one of the hottest, most popular actresses of the entire decade. And really, she didn’t really turn into a major Hollywood star on the scale of some of her contemporaries on her way up the acting ladder. After breaking out with Tom Cruise in Endless Love, Gertz went on to land roles in Sixteen Candles, Mischief, Quicksilver, The Lost Boys, Less Than Zero, and Renegades. That’s not to mention her work on the small-screen in Square Pegs, The Facts of Life, and Family Ties. Although other more higher profiled ‘80s actresses commanded much of the spotlight, if Gertz didn’t land all of those roles, there’s no doubt the decade wouldn’t have been the same. Gertz’s stint in Lost Boys still stands up today as one of the best (and hottest) female vampire roles of the last 25 years.

This a very, very interesting update indeed!!! Come on, ….#4, the girls above her were not that great and not nearly as memorable as Jami. Jami defined the 80′s and was clearly more appealing to men at the time, that’s why she landed so many roles.
she should have been voted #1 easily…….how can anyone disagree??????
I agree with Troy, Jami’s easily #1!
