These days she's riding high on the success of "Modern Family" and is happily dating former Florida senate candidate, Nick Loeb who has dark hair, chiseled features and a bright smile -- just like someone she dated back in 2005.

Tom Cruise
Sure, Tom dated Sofia, but he also had quite the full dance card in between his marriages to Mimi Rogers (1987), Nicole Kidman (1990) and Katie Holmes (2006). Both Rogers and Holmes are brunettes and, of course, Kidman's a redhead. What's the ardent Scientologist's favorite type? Judging by this next beauty, we'd have to say that he has a definite weakness for brunettes...

Penelope Cruz
Penelope Cruz recently welcomed a baby boy to the world with husband Javier Bardem; but before the pair tied the knot in summer 2010, the Spanish beauty had her pick of handsome suitors. What's her type? Big and brawny? Slight and tender? Maybe a little bit of both if this next former flame is any indication...

Matthew McConaughey
The former "People" magazine Sexiest Man Alive played the field quite a bit before settling down with his brunette Brazilian baby mama Camila Alves. The pair has two children, Levi and Vida, and a happy life in Malibu. But things weren't always as sedate for McConaughey who used to keep the company of many women -- of all types -- and had a hard time keeping his shirt on. Remember when he dated this next blonde beauty?

Kate Hudson
She's expecting her second child with new beau, Muse front man Matthew Bellamy, and, although she may not have a specific physical type, one thing's for sure, Goldie and Kurt's daughter has a weakness for musicians and, maybe, if this former flame is any indication, funny guys.
Next, one of Kate's former flames...
Ever dreamed of taking a dip in Hollywood's dating pool? Of getting the chance to date an honest to goodness A-list star, a full on natural beauty (OK, hunk) like George Clooney or Ryan Reynolds? Of getting to luxuriate (with him) on a mega yacht somewhere in the French Riviera in an outrageously expensive hand-crocheted bikini while � sorry, we'll stop, it's just a little too easy to get carried away when contemplating such heavenly scenarios.
The thing is though, all you have to do is examine their dating history to realize that being a celebrity is a lot like being in the "it crowd" in high school -- these people only go out with each other. Take a gander at these former flames and you immediately realize how closely knit that inner sanctum or celebrity "couples' circle" really is.
But, what is it that drew all these couples together in the first place? Is it a preference for a certain type? Is it just that naturally beautiful people prefer other natural beauties? Let's see if we can detect a common thread, a unifying theme -- and, while we're at it try to see whether the person they used to date has anything in common looks-wise with their current love.
So, what do you say? Are you up for a quick round of a little game we like to call, What's Their Type ?
