Chris doesn't do anything for me. When he was first "breaking", I found him fascinating, but then watched him deteriorate into what we see today. It's great to explore new horizons, but much caution should be used before making a decisive move. I believe Chris pushed his career into fast-forward and stripped the gears.
But then, who am I to criticize, I haven't made the money Chris has or developed a reputation that is known around the world.

I guess I am in the minority here but I like his act. He does his own thing. He put escapes back on the map imho and had a show showcasing our art. How can that be bad unless you are exposing all known secrets?

As for the whole like him (looks and all) I respect any performer for their work. Hey I thought Harry Houdini was amazing but I would not have wanted to date him either. Ok maybe to get some of his techniques (lol) Does that mean I didn't like him? No! I like performers for their work. If in like you mean does he turn me on and would I want to date him that is totally different and probably not what any of us are interested in knowing thanks.

I prefer him over david blaine.

Really, better than Blaine? That's surprising to hear (read).

OK I admit I can't stand either.

I admit it I prefer the Rock and Roll Magic of...Devlin.

Why should women like him any more or less then men do?

Myself, NOT a woman, and therfore crashing the topic, I've *never* liked geek-tricks and that seemed to be his specialty. I don't even like them when Penn and Teller perform them for laughs.
