NOBODY has mentioned Steven Tyler yet? That creep gives me nightmares!

Christina Ricci was great in “The Addams Family” movies. But as an adult, she HONESTLY looks like some brain-swollen alien from a UFO. That bulging forehead freaks me out.

Christine Baranski…Her nose flares up so sharply at its tip that the nostrils seem as if they’re staring right at you.

I know he’s some kind of heartthrob but I just don’t get it. His face just doesn’t do it for me, he’s too “pretty” or something. I can’t put my finger on it but his face just has no dimension at all.

Luis Guzman

I’m sure he’s probably a nice guy and all, but he looks like he lives under a bridge and eats children.

I tend to not have any hostile feelings towards celebrities, in the worst case I’m just apathetic about them but…

Adrianne Curry. I find her face to be the most [punchable](http://www.evilbeetgossip.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/adrianne_curry.jpg) I have encountered yet.

Last night I watched a little of a show with Christian Slater and it reminded me of another celeb that causes me to instantly reach for the remote.  
Megan Mullally.  
She may be a lovely human being but I don’t think I ever saw her play a character I found at all likeable.

I keep seeing people whose eyes are set a little too… wide apart. And maybe a little googly, too. But I can’t call any to mind except [the Property Brothers](http://www.motivators.tv/blog/image.axd?picture=2012%2F1%2FProp-Brothers-200-web1.jpg) on HGTV. Particularly the bottle-blond.

Watching them makes me want to pinch their faces back into shape.

I never noticed that before. Now I’ll be forever singing _Barney Google with the goo-goo-googly eyes. . ._

Weird…I actually like Owen Wilson’s face. Or maybe the fact that he is an actor and has never had it fixed. I think Renee Zellwegger is a far, far more bizarre person than we could even begin to suspect. Something is very amiss there, and it’s not just her expression.

I am extremely (to a fault) put off by any man who is over 50 and has the raven or chestnut or other deep richly-colored hair of a 20-year old. Bob Costas comes to mind. Maybe it’s just me, but seeing that ridiculous mop on an aging male face tops any woman’s botox. They can’t possibly think they are fooling us with that.

If you want to see old men with fake hair, just turn on the Sunday morning talking heads shows, Fox in particular. Toupee, toupee, Grecian Formula there for sure; wavy combover, toupee, WIG!, shoe polish?, toupee, wig, toupee…

Warning: If you don’t want to replace your memory of the young, hot, beautiful Nikki Cox with the abomination that she is now, don’t google her picture!

I don’t know what happened to her, but people are saying it looks like she got some plastic surgery on her perfect face. Now she looks like that alien from Star Trek: Insurrection where they pull the skin tighter in order to look young. Seriously, DON’T google her face if you love the old Nikki, by which I mean the young Nikki. Its too sad

I didn’t know who she was, so I had nothing to lose.

I do have a question. WHO is telling women that those overinflated balloon lips look good? And why are they listening?
