O Yes
Olivia vs. Olivia

The other day, we noticed a curious thing: suddenly, we can't seem to escape the clutches of not one, but two Olivias. They're adorning the covers of literature's most esteemed publications (Playboy, Maxim), starring in film's most esteemed sequels (Iron Man 2 for Munn; Tron 2.0 for Wilde)

So we did what we do best: got our hands dirty, all in the name of saving you from making an embarrassing gaffe at this weekend's BBQ. Here, the UD Labs® report on demystifying the two Olivias.

1. FASHION SENSE

Munn: In this month's Playboy, wears nothing above the waist but some conveniently placed strands of hair and a smile.
Wilde: In this month's Maxim, wears nothing above the waist but some conveniently placed strands of hair and a smile.
The edge: A push, really, but we thought you should know.

2. ONLINE PRESENCE

Munn:
Blogs, Facebooks, and Tweets, cursing like a sailor all the while. ("Holy sh*t—Billy Mays died!") Also: fond of posting scantily clad photos of herself.
Wilde: No blog, no Twitter, no fun. Thankfully there's the magic of Google Image. (As you can see.)
The edge: Munn, but Ms. Wilde is welcome to drop us an email.

3. ACTING CHOPS

Munn: Let's just say her opus includes a role as Rob Schneider's receptionist. She was, however, very convincing.
Wilde: Let's just say her opus includes playing the Princess of Sodom in Year One, in theaters now. Oh, and House.
The edge: Push.

4. WHO WOULD WIN IN A TICKLE FIGHT 

Munn: Moved around a lot as a kid because her stepdad was an Air Force man—which is to say, she presumably has a bit of fight in her. That said, she hosts the nerdy video game series Attack of the Show! on G4.
Wilde: Grew up NYC-tough, but studied theater in Ireland—at something called the Gaiety School of Acting (seriously).
The edge: We're thinking Munn, but never count the Irish out of a fight. Clearly, a real-life demonstration is required.

5. AVAILABILITY

Munn: If those Facebook pictures are any indication, she's available. Very.
Wilde: Married. And a vegan.
The edge: Munn, but hey, you've never let a silly ring stop you before.

VERDICT: Paradoxically, Munn seems far more wild than Wilde, which appeals to our inner rogue. But really, there are no losers here—check out our slideshow for the raw data. (And by "data," we mean eye candy.)
