1989 (July) - Phoebe Cates

[@mikecronis]

Her smile is pure sunshine.

[@glennspeeds]

She makes my heart melt

[@AntiqueCycles]

She is literally, BREATHTAKING!

[@stevenanthony6223]

This amazing woman has it all. It leaves you speechless.

[@matthewjones8865]

She’s so beautifully sweet with a gorgeous smile and laugh. Phoebe has such a kind heart what a wonderful world it would be if there were more Phoebe Cates in it.

[@Mrd9960]

I loved her in Gremlins and even more in Fast Times, what a classic scene that was, when she took her top off, wish she would have showed her ass also, but we seen that in Paradise, with the shower scene😁😁😁

[@armandocornejo7476]

Such a gorgeous smile My God!!!

[@jimgallagher2979]

She was actually 26 when this happened, but looked 10 years younger. Such a great attitude and personality.

[@noshok7436]

Throughout my entire life I've never really paid attention to Phoebe except in the small doses of public exposure she's done over the years, but every time I do come across her I'm absolutely fascinated with her. She seems like such a beautiful human being, super smart, friendly and stunningly gorgeous. She just radiates perfection. Congratulations Kevin Kline, you've gotten one of God's most amazing creations...asshole.

[@anthonydixon452]

Nosho K, your comments are all spot-on. Note to Kevin? LMAO 😂

[@TheKitchenerLeslie]

Easy there, Epstein

Well...that was uncalled for! 😔

[@chocolatetownforever7537]

Me too. Baddest looking woman ive ever seen.

[@johnjones5354]

Charming, witty, poised, talented, and extraordinarily beautiful.

[@ThunderZandor]

Carrie Fisher also has those same qualaties. Please Phoebe replace Rey when they redo Star Wars 7, 8 and 9. with George Lucas back in charge of his franchise.

[@joshbaino3087]

[@ThunderZandor]

@@joshbaino3087 I'm sure a George Lucas lead Star Wars could use her in some way even after 23 years retired.😀

[@joshbaino3087]

@@ThunderZandor sounds nice, but I seriously doubt they would remake star wars again. The franchise is starting to lose money. Also how could Phoebe play such a young character when she's 60?

[@jedijones]

This is such a gem of a beloved era of Late Night. Perfectly pretty Phoebe and perfectly funny Dave.

[@Petestanton]

Just gorgeous.

[@ShartySpice]

"I guess in my heart I do hope it works out"... watching Dave squirm around her is hilarious

[@guidosanchez5695]

Of all her hairstyles, this was my favorite. So beautiful.

[@stephenjohnson2327]

I believe I can speak for most of the male Gen. Xers when I say that our fantasies and hearts were crushed by her marriage announcement. Many of us still haven't recovered.

[@larrysmith1568]

Phoebe is a masterpiece.

[@savedfaves]

Kevin was 42 and phoebe was 26 when they wed. Still together. Lucky boy.

[@mattm8642]

savedfaves , the rule is half your age, plus six years so half of his age is 21, plus six equals 27, he can marry her, almost! Close enough. He aged early though, afterwards; her, not so.

[@tomwhitmore1325]

She is Changing his Depends now. That's kind of Hot in a weird way.🤣

Letterman always had a crush on her but who wouldn't?

[@erikbarton6352]

Phoebe Cates is amazing! This episode stands out for me because I was in the audience... Wish I could find the whole show online. A very young Will Smith was also on this episode, he wasn't even the Fresh Prince yet.

[@ThunderZandor]

Did he slap Dave for ogling over Phoebe?? And did Will slap himself for doing the same behind Jeda Pinket's back. Shame!

[@SJUCityBoy]

Wow! What could be said that hasn't been said thus far about Ms. Cates? Golden Ratio perfection. Enough said.

[@MrMikeyx007]

For those that don't know she sings a song called paradise and it's on here on KZbin

[@rajnbull]

I couldn't agree more with this statement! now in 2019 she still looks great.

[@greenwich1754]

There are certain women who just captivate, deer in the headlights; she definitely is one of those. My dad once told me that when you really love a woman, sex is a secondary issue, because with genuine love comes respect.
