George Clooney might be hot, but Mel Gibson is freezing, according to a list of Hollywood's 'coldest' celebrities¹ published by a movie website.

While Clooney was named "Sexiest Man Alive" for 2006 by People magazine last week, Gibson had to content himself with topping Filmthreat.com's 'Frigid² 50' list of movie stars who are out of fashion.

It followed Gibson's arrest for drink-driving earlier this year and his subsequent anti-Semitic tirade³ to police officers.

Second on the cold list was Jennifer Aniston, the website said, citing a string of disappointing box-office performances as she attempts to make the jump from the television sit-com "Friends" to the big screen.

Surprisingly, the comedian⁴ known as "Borat", who has taken the US box-office by storm, was third. "The surprise-faux-documentary filmmaking style won't work a second time," the website estimated.

Rounding out the top five were Lindsay Lohan, whose party-going lifestyle has attracted criticism from studio bosses this year, and Wesley Snipes, who was facing an investigation⁵ into alleged⁶ tax fraud.
