The 7 Sexiest Green Celebs of 2007

The results are in!
Well, not really. This list is based on my humble blogger opinion. Use the comment section to claim which celebs float your green boat. With enough feedback, I hope to compile a list based on "popular," not personal, opinion.

Sheryl Crow From Ecorazzi.com

2007 was a great year for Sheryl Crow. In addition to advocating "one square per restroom visit," the singer raised mainstream green awareness by touring the country in a biodiesel-powered bus. With Laurie David at her side, Crow threw the smack down on Karl Rove. After the former senior White House advisor scoffed at global warming evidence, Sheryl got feisty. "You work for us," the singer said famously. Now, flip me a burger . . . b*tch!

Brad Pitt From imstars.com

Obviously! No "sexy list" is complete without this corn-fed, Oklahoma-born, two-time Sexiest Man Alive man-boy from Missouri. Rugged good looks and a hard body are fascinating, but thanks to the stalkerazzi, we're also privy to this benevolent gentleman's every good deed. Following a laundry list, Pitt finished off 2007 with a massive green building project in Katrina-devastated New Orleans. Pitting (ahem, excuse me) a team of world-renowned green architects for projects, Brad is determined to start an unprecedented green building trend.

Sienna Miller From askmen.com

It's hard to keep track of this British beauty's breakups, make-ups . . . and then again breakups; yet, Sienna's eco-record is as clear as (NSFW alert!) her, um, total nudity in Hippie Hippie Shake. An ambassador for UK-based climate-change campaign, Global Cool, Miller recently launched a carbon-neutral clothing line with her sister called Twenty8Twelve. In October 2007, Sienna received an EMA Futures Award--an honor given to those who use their talent and celebrity to draw attention to the problem of global warming. Yay! Now we can raise our beers to eco-activism and sexy starlets . . . it's Miller time!

Adrian Grenier From canoe.ca

Unlike the character he plays on TV, Entourage star Adrian Grenier cares about the environment--no he doesn't drive a bright yellow Hummer in "real life!" Grenier prefers driving a Prius, living in a fully "green" house (solar roof, reclaimed floors, recycled blue-jean insulation, blah, blah, blah), and offsetting. In 2007, Grenier drew massive attention to Charity Water, a non-profit initiative that sets up drinking water and sanitation infrastructures in the world's most impoverished communities.

Word in the 'Hood says Grenier is "fully committed to educating any lady who dares walk into his green life." According to environmental gossip site Ecorazzi.com, Grenier said, "if a woman isn't environmentally conscious, she will be after going out with me."

Too bad, I'm already environmentally conscious . . .

Al Gore

I had to! This greenie may lack chiseled abs and cheekbones. Nonetheless, in 2007 Gore turned us on with unbridled activism and inspirational gusto. You go, Gore!

Hayden Panettiere From teenhollywood.com

Emerging from the cesspool of Disney celebs comes Hayden Panettiere. Though best known for her kiddie-porn appeal and role on NBC's Heroes, Panettiere is raising praise and eyebrows as a young advocate.

This past October, Panettiere thoroughly pissed off Japanese fishermen during their annual dolphin hunt in Taiji, Wakayama. The young star paddled a surfboard out to a cull of captured dolphins. Though blocked from freeing the enmeshed porpoises, Panettiere's kerfuffle drew great attention to animal conservation and her bubble-butt.

Dolphin saving aside, Panettiere reportedly continues to drive a pimped out Porsche SUV . . . ugh, teenagers!

Leonardo Dicaprio From IMDB.com

Hardly jaded by my accolades, international stardom, Oscar-nominations and embarrassingly attractive girlfriends, Leonardo DiCaprio has become one of today's most prominent environmental voices--many say he is following in Al's footsteps. In 2007 he produced and narrated The 11th Hour, said to be an unofficial sequel to An Inconvenient Truth. Leo's film stars my favorite environmentalist of all--and someone who should be on this list: David Suzuki.

What year is that vintage Al Gore photo from?

It looks like he's grunting one out!

You've done a pretty good job of starting a list of most-beautiful, or most-handsome, whichever.
There are so many beautiful people in the world (thank goodness!) that any comprehensive list would fill volumes.
If you want to stick to celebrities, well, a sizeable percentage are called "beautiful people" for a good reason. I know you have "green" in the title, so that does narrow it down a bit. Since I personally have little way of evaluating who is and who is not green, my first choice would be:
Olivia Zaleski! (by the way, if that photo really is of you, what are you doing writing blogs? Why aren't you off modeling swimsuits or something?)

[ChiGuy]

I'm an Al Gore fan, but sexy????

Yank him, and add Darryl Hannah.
Totally committed to the cause and still smokin' hot.

[GoodwithWood]

I vote for Olivia Zaleski. She's a Babe.

Love your list! I second the Portman, Clooney and Kennedy additions. And Pitt's website is makeitrightnola.org

You can't be a meat eating environmen­talist..si­mple as that..no matter how sexy or how much of a celebrity you are...and if you plan to fly private which is mostly the mode of travel for all of the above.. it's the least they could do..

[abbiehoffmansghost]

How can this list be complete without a picture of me. Sad.

[Horst]

Gore's Gulfstream runs on used fat fryer oil.

[degjack]

That picture of Brad....well....

I'm lost for words!

How big are their houses? Likely two or three or more times bigger (Gores is 10 times bigger) than the US average to say nothing of having more than one. Throw in all the flights these "stars" take and they are far far from green.

How many have solar cells on their homes providing electricity (day4energy dot com sells cells that one can actually make an economic argument for as they are the most efficient)? I bet none of them.

[GuyFawkes]

Hayden Panitierre drives an SUV. How can that be interpreted as a "green" act? Unless its a hybrid SUV, but I don't think it is.

[tjlogic]

Natalie Portman deserves a spot on that list.

If it's a "sexiest" list, Al Gore shouldn't be on it. He's green, but he doesn't need to be on every list.

[mojoKP]

Nice to see that two of the above: Sheryl and Brad, are alums of the University of Missouri.

Thank you both for all your efforts!

[lamarguerite]

Nice list. I wish it was longer.

If only Britney Spears went green! Judging from the Hot Internet Searches, she's the one with the most hits.

I would add George Clooney to the list. And also Bobby Kennedy Jr.
