<\/a><\/p>\nWhen it comes to predatory older women, Madonna is a living legend, and although she\u2019s a little washed up these days, you can\u2019t deny she still oozes sex appeal. Over the years many a finely-chiselled young man has fallen prey to her seductive powers and found himself dragged back to this cougar\u2019s den. And bearing in mind Madge was recently snapped gleefully leaving a London hotel with a bag containing a \u2018Purple Penetrator\u2019 strap-on sex toy, we\u2019re not sure we really want to know what goes on in that den\u2026\u00a0 Her endless string of toy-boys has a whiff of desperation about it \u2013 she recently split from model Jesus Luz claiming that she had \u2018nothing in common\u2019 with the Brazilian, who was 28 years her junior. No s*** Madge. Kim Cattrall may have played a vivacious cougar and self-proclaimed \u2018try-sexual\u2019 (yes, she\u2019ll try anything once) in Sex and the City<\/em> \u2013 but for Kim, Samantha Jones was no act. After penning The Art of the Female Orgasm<\/em> with hubby, Mark Levinson, she promptly went off in search of younger pickings (perhaps it was a case of \u2018better on paper\u2019 for Mark\u2026). Frequently linked with a string of younger studs, including basketball players Steve Francis and Cuttino Mobley, Kim sealed her cougar credentials by shacking up with chef beau, Alan Wyse, an impressive 22 years younger. As one keen blogger pointed out, \u2018for Kim Catrall, life imitates art very well.\u2019<\/p>\n Not only is Sandra Bullock a stalwart of the cougar scene in Hollywood (and pretty hot to boot), but she\u2019s living proof that the cougar lifestyle isn\u2019t always simply a desperate attempt to turn back the years. Previously linked with Ryan Gosling, 16 years her junior, Sandra married younger motorcycle maniac and former host of Monster Garage, Jesse James, in 2005. It doesn\u2019t get much more macho than that, and what\u2019s more the couple are still going strong, proving that, for Sandra at least, being a cougar is more the product of happy circumstance than the result of a mid-life freak-out over wrinkles. You go girl!<\/p>\n Raquel Welch may have been the \u2018Most Desired Woman\u2019 of the 1970\u2019s, but for a 67 year she most definitely has still got it. We\u2019re talking glamorous, sophisticated, the type of woman who could teach you a thing or five in the bedroom (and have enormous fun into the bargain). Her cougar career stretches back decades and makes even seasoned predators like Madonna look tame by comparison. Sadly though, in a disappointing interview for all you budding toy-boys out there, Raquel claims she\u2019s sworn off younger men: \u201cI feel a terrible failure. I don\u2019t go for much younger men anymore. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s a good idea for me.\u201d Before you reach for your revolver however, get this: following her recent separation from her fourth husband \u2013 15 years younger \u2013 Raquel is back on the prowl, and as we all know, old habits die hard.<\/p>\n Despite being the wrong side of 40, Shania Twain is most definitely one hot property \u2013 just check out the legions of devoted Facebook fans who joined the not-so-subtly named group \u2018Shania Twain is Hot as F***\u2019. Says it all really. When she busts out that immortal line, \u2018man, I feel like a woman\u2019, you know you\u2019d chew off your own fingers just to spend the night with her. No discernible history of cougar behavior as of yet, but rumor has it that following her split from her husband in 2008, Shania is back in the game and has told friends she \u2018wouldn\u2019t mind\u2019 a younger man. I think I just wet myself.<\/p>\n Cougars are the type of woman who know exactly what they want and how to get it. In Courtney Cox\u2019s case, she wants to bed younger men and make tons of money out of it. And that\u2019s exactly what this feisty minx did when she decided to enlighten the masses and turn her off-screen cougar shenanigans into one of 2010\u2019s most hyped new series, Cougar Town<\/em>. As with all the best cougars, Courtney has managed to blur the boundaries between being a predatory MILF on-screen and actually bedding loads of hot younger men, becoming in effect, a professional cougar.<\/p>\n If Bruce Willis thought she was hot enough to bed, who are we to argue (you\u2019d not only be stupid to argue with Bruce Willis, but probably very quickly dead too). Demi has gone from one extreme to the other, first snagging older men and then homing in on younger stars, before finally settling on baby-faced stud, Ashton Kutcher \u2013 15 years her junior. The sexy star, who has a massive following on Twitter, has been credited with sparking a boom in the number of women seeking toyboys, but still claims she doesn\u2019t understand how she\u2019s become a poster girl for cross-generational relationships. Yeah, weird that, isn\u2019t it Demi? Kutcher himself says she\u2019d rather be known as a \u2018puma\u2019, but quite frankly as long as she continues with the naked photo shoots \u2013 like the one she gave herself as a 41st birthday \u2018present\u2019 \u2013 we\u2019d call her whatever she liked<\/p>\n This blonde bombshell has never been married, and despite being 48 had the stamina to run cycling hero, Lance Armstrong, completely ragged. Most of her recent relationships have been with younger men, including ex-fiance Armstrong (nine years younger), Kid Rock (also nine years younger) and Owen Wilson (six years younger). That\u2019s quite some list, but Sheryl refuses to give up there, as plans were recently announced to join the set of Courtney Cox\u2019s Cougar Town<\/em> playing, you guessed it, a predatory mature beauty. Seeing as that basically involves playing herself, we think she\u2019ll do rather well.<\/p>\n What\u2019s that we hear trundling in the background? A bandwagon? Yes Michelle it is, and you better jump on quickly. And she did. Michelle Pfeiffer became the latest celeb to turn cougar when she starred as drop-dead gorgeous L\u00e9a de Lonval in the hit movie, Ch\u00e9ri<\/em>. Having said that, calling her a cougar to her face would definitely ruin your already slim chances with this mature stunner, considering she recently declared she hated the word: \u201cI so hate that term! Colette wrote these novels [about older women with younger men] so long ago, but even today they\u2019re ahead of their time in the way we perceive women\u2019s power and sexuality.\u201d Not just a pair of legs then.<\/p>\n The undisputed Queen of cougars, Helen Mirren is bona-fide Cougar Royalty. Just check out the shots of the stunning 64 year old beautifully filling her red bikini that circulated all over the internet like wildfire last year. Carrying herself with elegance and grace, but with a history of sexual experimentation that stretches back into time immemorial, Dame Helen is the star men want to bed, and women want to be when they grow up. And who can blame them. At the 2007 Academy Awards, Jack Black and Will Ferrell declared her to be \u2018hot\u2019, all but begging to get into her pants. And on the red carpet, her Queen<\/em> co-star Michael Sheen confessed, \u201cShe attracts a lot of men, she certainly attracted me.\u201d And long may she reign.<\/p>\n
