Christina Applegate Speaking of Kelly Bundy...this one's another cutie. She may have had us convinced in the '80s that she was similar to her roles in Married With Children and Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead (oh, loved that movie), but her step in the spotlight more recently proves that wrong. She was diagnosed with cancer in 2008 but bravely beat it with a double-mastectomy. And courage, dear friends, equals sexiness. Cancer-Surviving Single Dad Seeks Love

Jon Bon Jovi That moment when the "Livin' On A Prayer" video turned from black-and-white to color cemented it: this man is an all-time fave. Remember how he would strap himself in a harness and fly out over the crowd till you felt like you could touch him? Amazing. These days he's a longtime husband and devoted father of four, and while he and the band keep making music, his roles in the sports and charity worlds are what make him most awesome today. Why Women Can't Resist Rock Stars

Paula Abdul She made sixth-grade boys everywhere drool, even if they kept it secret. Among a sea of '90s diva singers, this woman could move.
