Male celebrities who look funny without facial hair

In another thread it was mentioned that Sam Elliott looks weird without a big old mustache in his current Justified role.

That’s probably a simple matter of taste in the man’s looks, but can we name some other past and present celebrities who just wouldn’t look right without a beard, a 'stache, a goatee, or a five o’clock shadow (a la Jason Statham)?

Start with Gabby Hayes or Al “Fuzzy” St. John if you can’t think of newer ones! :slight_smile:

Richard Armitage looks way the hell better with a beard than without. He ought to make that a permanent fixture.

Tom Selleck.

Pretty sure that bottom one is a photoshopped picture of him merged with Hugh Jackman.

Zach Galifianakis

Couldn’t get my first link to work for some reason so somebody can fix it or google it, but anyway he just seems so somber without the beard but some of it is probably also attributable to his weight loss.

Is Abe Lincoln a celebrity?

In some quarters! :smiley: So is/was Charles Darwin! And don’t ignore JC!

Kenny Rogers. I can’t find a picture of him without the beard, but trust me, it was icky.

Burt Reynolds

Tim McGraw the clean shaven actor from The Blind Side looks nothing like Tim McGraw the shadow face country singer.

Viggo Mortenson has 2 looks: Aragorn and everything else he did.

Ernest Borgnine.

With a beard he’s actually kind of ruggedly good-looking. Too bad for him they weren’t in fashion.

Kevin Smith. Mostly because he has always worn a beard. He would probably just look normal after a while without one.

Richard Schiff, who played speechwriter/advisor Toby on TV’s The West Wing, looks a LOT better with his beard.

Ringo Starr has always looked less goofy when he has a beard and/or moustache.

Paul, by contrast, looked a lot goofier WITH facial hair.

Commander Riker, aka Jonathan Frakes, definitely looks better with the beard.

Alex Trebek

Jeffrey Tambor

Tony Iommi looked downright alien when he was clean-shaven at California Jam '74.

Riker needs to take the beard up to the jawline, his face looks fat as is.

Kris Kristofferson.

Freddy Mercury. If any man desperately needed his mustache, it was that man.

Frank Zappa.
