Everyman schlub Kevin James keeps his string of unbelievably attractive love interests alive in "Here Comes the Boom," in which he's paired with Salma Hayek. She joins Leslie Bibb and Rosario Dawson ("Zookeeper"), Winona Ryder ("The Dilemma"), Maria Bello ("Grown-Ups"), Amber Valetta ("Hitch"), Jayma Mays ("Paul Blart: Mall Cop) and of course the one who started it all, Leah Remini in "The King of Queens." We guess Adam Sandler ("I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry") is the outlier.
