Me either. Has this turned into an “Actress Who Don’t Wear Bangs” thread? Tyra is perfectly proportioned, forehead-wise.

It Girl of the moment, Rachel McAdams has quite the prominent forehead.

Nobody gives forehead like Christina Ricci, though.

It’s a chin? I thought it was a handle or something.

The hairstyle Christina Ricci wore on the Superbowl night “Grey’s Anatomy” demphasised her forhead and was quite attarctive IMHO.

_sigh_ Yet another way in which my tastes differ from the masses. Too much forehead?

I have to agree with comments regarding Reese Witherspoon’s chin though, and Uma Thurman’s generally scary countenance.

“Too much forehead…” Next you’ll be saying that freckles are bad…

We’re all distracted by her hideously swollen, mis-shapened lips.

I think Christina Ricci is smoking hot, but one must acknowledge a prominent forehead.

Well, she already had her breasts reduced, presumably to be eligible for “smarter” roles. Maybe she had cranial implants while she was in there.

Well, yeah…it’s her best feature. What, do you guys all prefer low-forehead types?

Brains…sexy, sexy brains…

Can’t believe nobody’s mentioned [Matt Dillon](http://www.bangitout.com/images/MattDillon_Vespa_635055_400.jpg) yet.

I almost missed the mention of Luke Perry a few posts up–I would have been amazed if a mutant-forehead thread had made it this far without bringing him up. We used to joke that he could play Marvel villain [The Leader](http://www.mvstamps.com/images/88.jpg) without any head prosthetics.
