For me it’d be: Donald Trump - I could never watch his show, I loathe everything about him Carrot Top - who now looks freakishly weird to me Mickey Rourke - echoing others, what happened to him from the time he was in _Diner_? ---

The guy who played **Cannon** on TV. I couldn’t stand his growly voice, his little beady dark eyes, or the rest of him either. ---

> [@GuanoLad](#): > > That’s because you spelled it wrong: [David Gest](http://www.awfulplasticsurgery.com/archives/david_gest.jpg) Ah, yes. I was wondering why I couldn’t find any scarier pictures of him than the one I posted earlier. The pic you have there does his face much more justice. 😃 ---

Kris Kristofferson. And Barbra Streisand. Do you remember the crappy movie they made, _A Star Is Born_? I have a poster for that movie. The one where they’re partially nekkid and kissing. Just thinking about that image is enough to make me vomit. ---

> [@Podkayne](#): > > Gary Sinise creeps me the hell out. > > He gots buggy eyes, I think is why. I don’t know if it’s the eyes, but something about him reminds me of when we use to visit a relative in the State Mental Hospital, and me and my sister would wait in the car. Some of the inmates would be roaming around outside and peek in at us. Thanks for the memories. Oh! And that reminds me, Bob Hope used to scare the hell out of me. He doesn’t even look human. ---

Ann Coulter. She looks like a transsexual who ran out of money halfway through surgery. ---

Pamela Anderson gives me the creeps. She reminds me of a Barbie doll come to life… like on The Twilight Zone or something. Someone already mentioned Donald Trump. Between his bad hair and his unusually small mouth… I’m getting all oogley just typing that. ---

Between his bad hair and his unusually small mouth… I’m getting all oogley just typing that. I’m glad I’m not the only one who’s creeped out by Pam. She & Ana Nicole Smith (both of whom I tought were gorgeous when they were first ‘discovered’) have the expanding-contracting, growing-shrinking fake boobs. Plus she’s been romantically involved with some really creepy rock stars. [hijack] What was that movie with Sean Connery & Catherine Zeta Jones? I thought at first that she was supposed to be his daughter. When I heard that their characters had a romantic involvement :puking smiley: I was grossed out. I think Jocelyn Wildenstein is a celebrity _because_ she’s had worse plastic surgery than Michael Jackson. Jacko creeps me out too, BTW. How about the frigid bitch on ‘The Weakest Link’? ---

Bobcat Goldthwaite Don Imus Julia Roberts Brittany Murphy Dakota Fanning (I know she’s a little girl but I find her precocity to be overly cloying and squicky). ---

Ditto and triddo and whatever on Billy Bob Thornton. He makes me skin crawl. Actually I think that’s why I liked **Bad Santa** - usually I don’t like that kind of movie because I’ m so embarassed for the people in it, but in that one I was just “Hell, what the fuck” and quite enjoyed it. ---

Sort of a celebrity: Enzyte Bob’s wife. I would need an Enzyte tablet the size of a Winnebago to wanna mess with that! ---

[Loni Anderson_now_](http://www.cnn.com/SHOWBIZ/TV/9810/21/donnie.marie/link.lonnie.anderson.jpg) looks like I imagine Jayne Mansfield (whom she once played 20-odd years ago) would look _now_ if she’d been preserved by deranged Egyptians who’d never seen a human. Loni, baby, I know you’re 93 in a business where youth is everything but face it: nothing says “this broad is older than molecules” than way too obvious and way too much alteration (and save some collagen for the next generation). Speaking of botched facelifts, Farrah Fawcett is all uckwardly fupped last time I saw her. Add to this the fact that she is so obviously barking mad and self obsessed (not to mention has worse taste in men than the Boleyne sisters and gave birth to the most recent O’Neal All Star Rehab Team Member) and she repels me. Jackie Gleason used to repulse me- don’t know why. It’s not that he’s fat (John Goodman and Orson Welles are two of my favorite actors and I always thought Raymond Burr was flat-out-sexy [in a “don’t particularly wanna see him nekkid but has nice eyes and great presence” sort of way]), but there was a scene from the godawful movie _Sting 2_ in which his character was putting the moves on Teri Garr that just literally made me want to hurl. I actually use the analogy “X is ‘sex-with-Jackie-Gleason gross’” in casual conversation. ---

One more comment on why Jackie Gleason repulses me: in addition to being a thoroughly obnoxious joke thieving megalomaniac, he always looked like he’d smell like butt. ---

> [@stegon66](#): > > I know I’m alone on this one, but I really can’t stand…Sean Astin. That’s right, the little Hobbit dude. I never have liked him as he comes across as very smug and self-aggrandizing. You’re not alone. I decided I hate him after listening to the LOTR EE commentaries. He only talked about two topics: 1. The pathos evoked in this scene, and the pathos that the audience feels for this character, and pathos this, pathos that. I was thinking, “Get a new [M-W.com](http://M-W.com) word of the day!” 2. How he was sooooooooooo fat for the movie. Guh? He didn’t look any different to me. And what’s so bad about being a couple lbs overweight? To go with **Eats\_Crayons** ’ Benjamin McKenzie disgust, I’m going to add Mischa Barton, the chick from _The OC_. Her mouth creeps me out. And I think it was **Cisco** who posted about Kirsten Dunst. Her face always has a look of disgust and indignation. ---

And [John Franklin](http://www.rclabaugh.com/corn6.html) (2nd picture down) from **Children of the Corn** … yikes! ---

I know this isn’t GD, but Michael Moore repulses me. The combination of his slovenly appearance and his phoney, flawed self-righteousness makes me want to instantly and repeatedly spit in his face… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/do-any-celebrities-physically-repulse-you/280673.md?page=2) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/do-any-celebrities-physically-repulse-you/280673.md?page=4)
