Melanie Griffith’s face makes me want to pat it and try to put it back right.

What looks? My point is he never looked at all pretty to me but now he’s more interesting.

Emily Procter. She played [Ainsley Hayes](http://www.ugo.com/tv/hottest-tv-lawyers-ainsley-hayes) on the West Wing, and she was _cute_. (I loved that character, which maybe affected my opinion.)

Then she had a bunch of work done, and now … I don’t know. She just [looks](http://www.superiorpics.com/event/%27CSI:_Miami%27_TV_Series_Promotion/ProcterAG02023003.html) [weird](http://www.whatsontv.co.uk/us-series/csi-miami/interviews/a-quick-chat-with-csi-miami-star-emily-procter/6587). I can’t quite put my finger on what’s wrong. All the life and personality seems to have gone out of her face. I can’t watch her anymore.

Anytime one of these threads comes around I mention Richard Gere. He always, always looks to me like he just licked his lips, and he has that weird smirk that seems to be a common peeve.

Chris Brown. His teeth are too numerous, too big, and too unnaturally white, and so his smile angers me.

Ah, you saved me the trouble of posting my go-to link in these sort of threads.

There’s one guy who annoys the heck out of me and I can’t remember, or even manage to Google, his name. Skinny weedy looking chap who nevertheless somehow seems to play superheroes and such. You know who I mean.

I know, I know. . . nobody’s face is symmetrical but her’s is so out of wack that it makes me uncomfortable. If there was only a way I could watch The Mentalist and not get twitchy whenever I look at Robin’s lopsided face.

That is a HORRIFIC picture. Maybe she had bad botox or something, but she at least used to be [rather attractive](http://www.flickr.com/photos/39952250@N04/4221894577/).

Botox, fillers, and lip plumping or implants. It would be easier to name actresses over 40 that haven’t had one or more of these things done than name those who’ve had. I don’t know why they deem it attractive.

You can’t tell from this picture but Robin Tunney used to have a really cute and really deep dimple on one cheek. That dimple has morphed into something. . . uncanny. She puts a lot of energy into covering one side of her face.

None of the people I mentioned are _ugly_, it’s just that I hate their faces. It’s a different thing than what I think about Cameron Diaz or Uma Thurman who I find unattractive. Or Marc Anthony and Tilda Swinton who should be cast in a zombie movie to save on the make-up budget.

There is no way to explain what I mean except to say: I can’t stand their faces.
