NEW YORK —  When Esquire asked a panel of men whom they'd invite from a list of 14 notable women to a dinner party, they chose Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice over such stars as Oprah Winfrey, Angelina Jolie, Julia Roberts and Jennifer Aniston.

Asked which famous man they'd invite to dinner, respondents favored Jay Leno ahead of Bill Clinton, George Clooney and President Bush in results reported in the magazine's July issue. The survey of 1,083 men age 25 and up was conducted online in March by Beta Research Corp.
