Which celebrities who are generally considered to be attractive do you find seriously unattractive? I have two nominations that spring to mind Jorja Fox - face like a frying pan and such an annoying cadence and inflection to her speech, and Jennifer Garner. Several times while watching Juno, I almost recoiled from the screen when they showed close-ups of her face. She’s all angles and stretchy lips. On the male side, Colin Farrell and Matthew McConaughey - mostly their facial expressions, I just want to slap the smirk off their arrogant faces. Anyway, who icks you out and why?
Bruce Willis and Jack Nicholson, even when they were younger. I hate smirkers.
One above all. I just can’t fathom why Angelina Jolie is thought of as a beauty. She has such heavy features, I just can’t see the attraction. (I’m male BTW).
Angelina Jolie. Her lips are entities vying for their own zip code.
Kim Cattrall (sp?), but then, I’m not much into blondes. Michelle Pfeiffer, Kathleen Turner, ditto.
Colin Quinn, Benicio del Toro.
Tori Spelling. Moreso since she was disinherited, dissolving the only reason I’d consider romancing her.
Julia Roberts. I don’t think she’s ugly, and I’m sure she’s energetic and vivacious and all those other wonderful lively adjectives. I just don’t get how people think she’s beautiful — that smile is all gums.
The Williams sisters of tennis fame…BFU.
I would add Beyonce but,she isnt seriously unattractive,just plain.

Uma Thurman.
I almost started a thread like this earlier this, inspired by a movie trailer featuring Jessica Alba. Not that I’d call her unattractive or ugly–she’s not–but I do not understand the praises sung in her name. She’s cute, I’d say, or would be if she ate a freaking hambuger every once in a while. But her face is pretty ordinary, and done up as a blond Susan Storm she was …well, I’ll be nice and say the look was unwisely chosen.
Do people seriously consider her attractive? [Family Guy]Her face looks like a foot.[/FG]
I’ll also add my vote for Jolie to this list.
I also would have said Gwyneth Paltrow until I saw “Iron Man.”
Jennifer Anniston: as someone once mentioned, she has a face like a carved ham.
Kirsten Dunst: wake the fuck up!
Helena Bonham Carter: a forehead large enough to show her own movies on.
Keira Knightly: give her a short haircut and she’d look like Gomer Pyle.
Thirded. I really, really don’t understand the appeal. I also don’t like how it’s almost cliche for heterosexual females to say how gorgeous they find her, and how they’d definitely go gay for her.
Along with Sarah Jessica Parker, other women I consider “horse-faced”: Mariah Carey, Kathleen Turner, Carly Simon. What is it with that look? I think it’s very unappealing.
My husband thinks Elizabeth Taylor is ugly, even in movies in her 20s and 30s. Like Cat on a Hot Roof, when most people thought she was the example of beauty.
We had a thread a few months back about how SJP can be very pretty or very ugly depending on how she’s photographed. Many people (including myself) agreed.
It’s funny how that this thread comes, since I was just talking to a friend of mime about the new young actress Disney is hoping to become the next Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato. Seriously, Google both her and her friend and fellow star Selena Gomez and tell me which one is cuter. Chances are it’s gonna be the one without the deformed chin and weird wrinkles when she smiles.
How do you feel about Christina Ricci, who I swear has an eight-head whenever I see her without bangs?
I’m with all y’all on Angelina Jolie – I don’t see what all the hoopla is about.
Benicio del Toro, check.
dons asbestos suit George Clooney. I’ve never seen what the big deal about him is, either, but a friend explained to me that the attraction for her is his voice. Like a motorcycle that runs on caramel, she said.
And following the Angelina Jolie thing, sez Wikipedia:
Jolie has said in interviews that she is bisexual and has long acknowledged that she had a sexual relationship with her Foxfire co-star Jenny Shimizu, “I would probably have married Jenny if I hadn’t married my husband. I fell in love with her the first second I saw her.”
So I’m thinking, ‘If Angelina can have anybody, this Jenny Shimizu must be a knockout.’ Here’s a picture; I am so not seeing the babe-itude.

There is something seriously…mannered about this woman. It isn’t just the looks which do it for me, it’s how she carries herself, vocal inflections, mannerisms, etc. which ultimately makes the difference. Dunst just seems very stiff and lifeless on screen, completely unnatural, even if she has an attractive-ish round face. She just seems incapable of injecting anything substantial into whatever role she is playing, and that lack of vitality is a big turnoff.
I’ve heard people go on about the beauty of Isabella Rossellini but I don’t see it.
