Is there any famous person that most people consider average-looking or even unattractive, but you find him/her to be inexplicably but incredibly sexy???
I’ll confess first. I’m a gay man and, for reasons that I can’t explain, actor/comedian Rob Corddry is one of the hottest men I’ve even laid eyes on!?!? Most people wouldn’t even give him a second glance out in public, but something about him really does it for me!
Let’s hear your dirty little secret crushes….
Amber Benson.
Steve Buscemi. I don’t know why.
Dan Futterman.
He has irony and self-awareness, which counts for a lot. And has nothing at all to do with his appearance.
I can’t think of a secret celebrity crush of my own. I would have done a young Bill Cosby in a NY minute (think I Spy or his first short-lived sitcom) but I don’t think that taste is particularly unusual (and not that I think he would have been interested, we are talking fantasy, right?).
I tend to prefer the goofy-looking guys, like David (Charlie Creed-Miles) the assistant of Father Vito in The 5th Element. But he doesn’t really count as a celebrity, does he?
Roddy
I can certainly understand the appeal, but who on earth DOESN’T think Amber Benson is a hottie???
I know plenty of gay men who would jump the fence for her…then probably re-do her hair and makeup and jump back over the home team! hehe
She is a HUGE lesbian icon because of her wonderful portrayal of Tara Maclay, Willow’s beloved girlfriend on “Buffy”! It was Tara’s death that caused ‘Dark Willow’ to emerge and ultimately try to destroy the world and humanity because of her overwhelming rage and grief. I actually hated Season 7 of Buffy without Tara.
Since hasn’t had any really prominent or mainstream roles since her departure from the Buffy cast in 2002. The most high project that I can think of since then is a movie called “Latter Days”. It was very controversial because it was the story of a gay L.A. “party boy” (played by Wes Ramsey, aka- Wyatt Halliwell on ‘Charmed’ and AV Tech Dave Benton on CSI:Miami) and a Mormon missionary who moved in next door with three of his ‘brothers’. Amber played a co-worker and close friend to Wes Ramsey’s character. It’s an AWESOME movie, if you haven’t already seen it. And as icing on the cake, Jacqueline Bisset plays a fairly signficant role in the movie as well.
I recently learned the perfect word to describe those ‘goofy-looking guys’ that you fancy- adorkable! I looked up Charlie Creed-Miles and he is most definitely an adorkable stud of the highest order!
My ideal adorkable stud is someone like Justin Bartha, Christopher Gorham and the original, hunkiest, most adorkable man ever- John Krasinski! =)
Joel McHale used to be on my most adorkable list until I recently saw him shirtless in an episode of ‘Community’ and he is no longer adorkable. He now qualifies as (pardon my language) HOT AS FUCK, Grade A Man Meat!!! :dubious: Or to borrow a British phrase that I’ve always loved- he is “Sex on Legs”!
I just thought of another one that I’ve had a major crush on for 10+ years- Ike Barinholtz (on MadTV for years and he’s on the ‘The Mindy Project’ now).
A common theme with all of the ‘average’ looking guys that I find so attractive is that they’re comedians (or comic actors might be a more accurate way to say it)! In school, the cutest/hottest guy was always the “class clown”. They’re very self-confident, but in not in a cocky or arrogant way. They were secure enough to make fun of themselves and not take themselves too seriously.
I suppose I find a sense of humor far sexier than any physical traits! 
Steve Lukather, hands down.
Richard Belzer.
Yum!
Justin Long (probably most famous as Mac in the Mac vs PC commercials) doesn’t get anywhere near the attention he should. I fell in love with him way back in Jeepers Creepers.
Kirstie Alley. I like curvy ladies…
Michaela Pierrera, a news host on CNN.
Netflix streaming finally made me a Supernatural fan. (Yes, the writers occasionally seem to be on crack.) The show is famous for its ridiculously handsome stars–the two brothers & the angel in the trenchcoat.
But the cast also includes Mark Sheppard. (As does the cast of every other genre show.) Not classically handsome, he does appear that he would, umm, know what to do…
Richard Engel, NBC’s Middle East correspondent. I doubt he has any problems with the ladies, but he’s not someone you typically hear about as having legions of female fans.
Penn Jillette. I have a serious crush on this man.
I burn for Jim Hanna, the dad from the many, many Cox Cable commercials. And thank heavens, because otherwise I’d get annoyed at how often they run those damn things.
I dated a girl for a while that look like her twin sister with the curves, her nick name was of course Kirstie.
Meg White of The White Stripes fame.
Back off! She was mine when she was still here in LA doing local news, and even before then, I claimed her when she was working on TechTV. BACKBACKBACKDOWNDOWNDOWNMINEMINEMINE!
Also, Mary Pierce, when she was still playing tennis. I have no explanation for that one.
