QUIRKIEST SITE: Jennifer Love Hewitt's Breasts (www. jenlovehewitt.com/jen.html). "I like that website," Hewitt says. "I get a laugh out of it. I hear they judge them from outfit to outfit, so now I think of those people when I dress and I try to make sure that they're not disappointed."
WHAT SHE THINKS OF THE INTERNET: "Any recognition that people appreciate your work is only good. I look forward to getting a computer and talking to some of these people. I'm going to get a special code name so no one knows it's me."

WHY SHE'S AN INTERNET STAR: Though she's starred in such TV hits as Who's the Boss? and Charmed and was a teen pop sensation in Japan, Milano's Internet fame rests largely on a few B-movies she made in various states of undress.

OFFICIAL SITE: None
WHAT SHE THINKS OF THE INTERNET: "It's a great resource, but you also have a huge problem with misinformation," Portman says. "The major issue with the Internet is anonymity�once people have anonymity all rules are lost, all human values and morals are gone. People in anonymous circumstances will do things they would not normally do. People will lie or be mean or harass, and they are just not accountable. The problem is that technology has moved faster than the laws guiding the Internet, so it's gotten out of control."
ODDEST "FACT" CIRCULATING ON THE NET: She hates the way the word coconut sounds, but she loves the word clutter. "I said that in an interview when I was 11," Portman says. "It's not a huge thing about me."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: Will he return to ER? Is it true he says he'll never get married?

About Our E-Stars Methodology:
To produce our twin top-ten lists of the most popular movie stars on the Internet, PREMIERE polled Yahoo!, Go, Excite, Lycos, and Ask for the actors and actresses who got the most search requests in May. We limited our list to stars with substantial movie credits (that's why Pamela Anderson didn't make the cut). It's impossible to say exactly how many websites a star has, but we did searches on Go, Lycos, Fansites, CelebSites, and Yahoo! to come up with the approximate numbers of fan sites devoted to our top 20 e-stars. E-star profiles are by Al Weisel.
