Ok that makes sense. Otherwise that would be some great CGI.
Olivia Wilde. I just don’t get it.
Kaley Cuoco. She’s not unattractive, but she gets a lot of “the only girl in the room” extra credit.
About a year or two ago, I started a similar thread on this topic but specifically about David Beckham. I had noticed that over the course of about a year, there were at least a dozen ad campaigns (in print and on television) all based around the supposed irresistible magnetism about him. Every ad was basically the same, Beckham was on the beach (or some place where he could walk around shirtless), and every female in a thousand yard radius flocked to ogle and leer at him.
I totally didn’t get it. I never saw him as anything but marginally passable. (But then, I guess the rest of the world did too - the ads have apparently dried up.)
I’ll go Julia Roberts. There’s a scene in America’s Sweethearts where they show Catherine Zeta-Jones (who we are supposed to dislike but who was at a beauty peak) and then Julia Roberts and I recoiled at the juxtaposition. I liked JR in Pretty Woman when she had a lot of hair to offset the teeth but now when she has flat hair and her same horse walk, nah, not hot. Or a beauty.
Agreed and she was probably even more unremarkable before her enhancement.
I read something once that mentioned “the handsome Zach Braff.” Huh?
Jennifer Lawrence!? Srsly!?
And arguing about pixie cut or long hair?
She can be dark like Katniss, blonde, long-haired, pixie-cut, flecked, feathered, curly, straight, or shave her head and tattoo scrimshaw-style depictions of iconic scenes from Moby Dick all over her scalp, and no matter what, she’d be about the hottest thing ever. You people need help.
(In reference to my assertion that it was not Cameron Diaz’s body in The Mask)
At the time, there were interviews in which she and others stated that she was padded- at least in the chest area, and I assumed others. She was costumed to look more voluptuous than she was. I remember seeing her scantily clad very soon after and having very little in the way of curves.
This was before every article was on the internet, but I got People and Entertainment Weekly and other magazines like that.
I was referring to reports in print at the time- 1995 or whenever it was.
This is mine. I don’t get it at all. I remember when she was on some series on Fox close to a dozen years ago. I thought she was interesting looking, but I didn’t run off to do an image search on her or anything.
Then a few years ago I started seeing her being referenced a lot by grown men as the most attractive woman on the planet.
Maybe it’s because I just prefer softer features.
Sweet Jesus, Steve Tyler looks like a homeless meth addict! :eek:
Maybe it’s just me. When I hear the word attractive I think of the face not boobs. Not saying there is anything wrong with boobs. I like boobs. But I agree that in The Mask her face was the most beautiful it has ever been. I do think it was because she lost too much weight after and it made her features more severe.
But if this is padding it is very professionally done. SFW just cleavage.
Benedict Cumberbatch. Whut? And I’m sure there’s hosts of others that I personally find unattractive that many salivate over, but I understand that’s just me. But this guy? I seriously don’t get. He’s actively creepster looking to me. Ugh.
Sure it wasn’t saying that someone looked “like a handsome Zach Braff”? You know, like “a Mexican Robert De Niro,” or a “400-pound Hitler”?
I do not consider Jessica Alba to be “hot.” I will grant you that she is beautiful. But 'hot" also implies a sexy, passionate “go for it” attitude, and her refusal to do onscreen nudity, even when playing a stripper, banishes her from the “hot” category AFAIC.
Norman Reedus, Darryl from The Walking Dead. He has a HUGE fan base following swooning over him. While I love the show and his character, I just don’t find him physically attractive at all…
Agreed! He has such a weirdly shaped face, he looks like some kind of alien wearing a human disguise. I can’t get into him at all. Nor would I want to.
As an aside, whenever the topic of celebrity resemblances comes up, I always get told I look like Mick Jagger. The comments in this thread makes me
As south park calls her: “Transvestite Donkey Witch”?
Cheer up and go back to post 48.
Katy Perry is one celeb whoDEFINITELY benefits from makeup.
