Well. This thread was made for me. Lyle Lovett - I can’t possibly be the only person that finds him wildly sexy. Henry Rollins The Zoboomafoo brothers (Chris and Martin Kratt) The guy who played “Cracker” - I think Robbie Coltrane? Tommy Lee Jones the guy who was Begby in Trainspotting Wayne Gretzky Todd Bertuzzi former Canadian PM John Turner Dennis Miller David Letterman Dr. Phil Unfortunately, there are many, many more. I need help. Or maybe just better glasses. ---

Tonya Harding…I wouldn’t want to be seen with her, but perhaps a wild weekend in a ski lodge with a few cases of beer…she’s not pretty but would be wild in the sack IMHO. ---

I’m a man, and hetero, so pardon my ignorance; …I didn’t know Duchovny was unattractive!? I thought he was hot. Hell, I think he’s hot! Why would you bring him up in a thead with the tittle “Reveal Your Unattractive Celebrity Crush”? ---

> [@](#): > > _tlw wrote:_ > > He’s not conventionally handsome, but I’d be a happy happy girl for just an afternoon of friendly conversation with Vincent D’Onofrio. Have you seen him in “Adventures in Babysitting”? He plays a small part as a “Thor” lookalike, and he blew my mind. Greek god time. He looks different now, but I still think of him as that golden-haird god. I wish I could find a photo of him from that movie, but I’m too lazy to look for too long, alas. Muck Muck mentioned Tommy Lee Jones: I guess if you think about it, all those tired wrinkles are not classically handsome. But I have a hard time seeing him that way; I just think he’s dandy. And then when you see what he looked like when he was [younger and less tired-looking](http://members.aol.com/lukoch4/tljpics/afterdark2.jpg)—sigh. Very handsome, indeed. Shirley Ujest: Shepard Smith? _Shepard Smith?!?_ I always thought he had classic movie-star looks. But he does have those big wideset eyes that are kinda funky looking… ---

Hey! I actually found something from “Adventures in Babysitting” after all! [Vincent D’Onofrio guest appearing as Dawson in Adventures in Babysitting](http://free.hostdepartment.com/VincentDonofrio/aib.html). OK, the pictures are a little hazy, but you have to admit, he looks _really_ different than what we are accustomed to… ---

He can croon to me with his long face, wiry hair, and long lanky body of his any time he wants. _She got big red lips She got big brown eyes She treats me nice It’s a big surprise She won’t do anything that you tell her to She makes me feel good She makes me feel good._ ---

A few people admit to truely shameful things, and everyone else throws out the names of people who’ve probably made the annual People’s Most Sexiestest list at least once. Heck, if any of y’all really think that David Duchovny or Michelle Pfieffer are unattractive, I sure am glad you can’t see _me_, and I consider myself to be pretty decent looking. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by AskNott \* > \*\*Lynn Russell of CNN Headline isn’t a classic beauty, but with those lips, I’d believe anything she told me. \*\* I couldn’t put the face to the name so I did a Google search. From her CNN bio page: “Russell is a licensed private investigator and bodyguard, certified open-water scuba diver, a Fulton County deputy sheriff in Atlanta and holds two black belts in Choi Kwang Do. Russell is the author of How to Win Friends, Kick Ass & Influence People.” WOW! What more could anyone want?!!! BTW- I don’t know what most people think of her, but IMHO, Annabella Sciorra is the cat’s meow. ---

Erm…dunno if he counts…but the nice people at work make fun of me for my crush:Tom Waits Heheads the list. Really.

I can’t believe no one has brought up **Sarah Bernhardt**. I still occasionaly have a Wesson Oil moment whenever I flash that scene from _King of Comedy_ where she pursues Jerry Lewis into the street with only her skivvies on. I think the general consensus is that she is not a hottie. ---

Most definitely Jeff Goldblum. He’s yummy. Weird Al Yankovic - got his autograph at Wal-Mart once, right after he got the laser eye surgery. He’s so cute! And so funny! And just so much like me! I want one! who else… lessee… I must say I still think Taylor and Isaac Hanson are damn de-freaking-licious (I’m Taylor’s age, I can say this 🙂 ), and I was highly saddened (not to mention confused all to heck) by the news of Taylor’s recent marriage and fatherhood. Also, I don’t know if he counts as unattractive, but he wasn’t exactly considered a teen heartthrob or anything… the guy who played Jake Sisko on Star Trek: DS9, Cirroc Lofton (never did figure out how to pronounce his name…), I always adored him… of course, that may just have been transferrence from the Wil Wheation as Wesley Crusher crush… but I loved that guy… don’t know what happened to him… I’m sure there’s more… can’t really think of anyone else right now. ---
