Forest Whitaker’s crazy left eye,
CMC fnord!
Rick Allen, the Def Leppard drummer, only has one arm.
Adam Hills, the host of Spicks and Specks (Australian music quiz show) was born without a foot.
That’s pretty much spot on - ‘Beadle’s About’ involved candid-camera gags, like pretending to people that their car had been crushed into scrap while they’d popped down the shops or something, and only after several minutes of fury, grief and tears on the part of the victim did Beadle sidle up in a deliberately poor disguise and hang aorund until they realised that it was the beardy weasel himself. He started to redeem himself by becoming a sort of celebrity quiz-setter in his later years, but just as he was succeeeding, died.
Last laugh’s on you, Beadle!!
Jim Abbott only used one hand when playing baseball.
I think Long Dong Silver’s physical deformity is fairly well documented, at any rate . . .
Obligatory *Buffy *quote:
Clearly, MS is some sort of six-towed demon.
I dated a guy who had six nipples. Two normal, two almost normal, then two ‘shadow nipples’ lined up under them. He always joked about getting the top four pierced.
Grace Park and Lucy Lawless are certainly slim, but they aren’t THAT skinny. That picture was heavily photoshopped.
Having introduced Jeremy Beadle into the thread, I suppose I should comment …
By all accounts he was a nice and clever man, who certainly seems to be remembered by those who knew him with affection.
For whatever reason, his television career was marked by pretty low brow stuff. Those who watched his shows - and I saw enough of them myself back in the day - evidently tended to enjoy them, but probably also tended to see him as a rather cruel figure. The guy who does the nasty reveal at the end of the gag. Those who didn’t watch him just dismissed him.
Though it’s not as if his fellow Game For A Laugh hosts ever really wormed their way into public affection. Going For Gold as a student daytime joke, a regular Radio 2 gig (? - I really don’t know) and a paedophillia allegation followed by critical acclaim on stage. Beadle may well have done the best of them.
I was thinking they’d photoshopped the ass onto Grace Park, because she’s that skinny.
Beat me to it!
Some of those look so fake. I mean, I know Seal has scars, and after some ad controversy, Megan Fox’s thumb has received some attention, but I have a hard time believing Denzel’s pinkie is really that deformed.
He was also missing an ear.
What? Since when?
Well regardless of Grace Park’s skinniness or non-skinniness, here is another pic that shows she definitely has the pectus excavatum thing going on.
Jethro Tull’s Ian Anderson has a deformed right pinky finger. Only very late in his career did he train himself to use that finger to achieve the classically correct flute fingerings.
John Denver was missing a few toes…as far as I know, the lawnmower was uninjured.
Trace Adkins is another musician with a deformed finger, in his case a left pinkie finger that was torn off in a on-the-job accident (oil work, not music) and reattached.
He has also had his nose partially severed (auto accident in his youth), and was shot in the heart and lungs by his second wife (who, needless to say, is now an ex). He’s put a lot of mileage on his body.
