Hollywood Crush › Salt

Rambo? Ancient history. Jason Bourne? Soooo 2008. Forget the dudely heroes of yesteryear; these days, the name of the game is ass-kicking women. This year's movie lineup was rife with smart, sexy, ultra-confident ladies who hang tough, play hard, and fight dirty...and, of course, gleefully murder the unfortunate punks who get in their way. And as we look back on 12 months of fine female leads, the 2010 year-end roundups wouldn't be complete without a countdown list of the Ass-Kickingest Females of the Year. From legitimate superheroes to intellectual heavyweights to vengeful victims, there's no question that these performances carried a serious dose of girl power.

We might have questioned the "Hills" star Kristin Cavallari's fashion choices at last night's "Salt' premiere (much like Kristen Stewart's dress at last year's Teen Choice Awards, that number seriously looks like it could hurt someone!) had we not have immediately realized: we have seen this dress before!

Upon further investigation, it seems Kristin chose the very same look that Kim Catrall's Samantha wore during a nightclub scene in "Sex and the City 2." The Blonds dress in red was also favored by Rihanna last November when she donned it for her Rated R release party in NYC. One look worn by a reality star, an R&B diva and a sex fiend? Now that's what we call fashion forward.

So who wore it best? Take our poll after the jump!

Every day a multitude of stars wander through the halls of MTV News to talk about their latest projects and goof around with staff members. But sometimes we catch stars elsewhere, and that's why we put together Spotted!, a daily compendium of stars in the wild.

If the fact that it's winter and December didn't give it away, you might've guessed from looking at the Spotted! photos from oh, every other day this week that its pretty freakin' cold in New York City right now. That's why "The Vampire Diaries" star (and recently named number three Hump Day Hottie of 2009) Paul Wesley kept warm in a slick black pea coat as he headed into the Cort Theatre to watch Scarlett Johansson and Liev Schreiber in the first preview of the Arthur Miller play "A View from the Bridge" on Monday night. Hmm, the theater sounds like a good way to pass the time before "VD" returns in January.

To get a better look at Paul's stylish winter coat, click on the photo above! After the jump, find out what family man we caught out on a wintery day.
