re: Megan Fox
I think she’s pretty, but I about swallowed my tongue when I saw that she was 23. She needs to fire her stylist and get to a dermatologist because I think her face looks 40 easily.
Lindsay Lohan looks about 40 too, but I think we all know why…
Sarah Jessica Parker is always named in threads like this, which I don’t get because Sarah Jessica Parker has not been marketed as a beautiful woman. She wasn’t even supposed to be the most attractive of her group of friends on Sex & The City. Sarah Jessica Parker is famous because she starred in a very popular TV show and because she is considered by many to have a great, unique sense of style. That’s why she’s been on so many magazine covers. It isn’t because anyone thinks she’s a perfect 10 in the looks department. Even the commercials for her perfume Lovely said “Lovely…on the inside”.
I know it’s hard to imagine that a woman could become a celebrity and a fashion icon without being conventionally beautiful, but Sarah Jessica Parker did it. Saying you don’t think she’s really all that good looking is missing the point.
Thank you, Lamia. Well put. I always wondered about people who use her as their example. She’s supposed to be beautiful because she’s famous?
Oh and one I don’t get is Kari Byron. Don’t.get.it.at.all. It was explained to me that she’s a passable looking woman on a geek show who got (kinda) naked so geeks everywhere will embrace her, but I don’t see it.
Wow, this absolutely proves that everyone has different tastes. Those two are pretty much two of the best-looking men in Hollywood in my opinion.
I’m curious who you think is good-looking.
Well, if we really want to dish…
Nicole Kidman–she looks like a Victorian Barbie doll to me and IMO her face is starting to look a wee tight, as in she’s gotten some work done…
I don’t even know who Megan Fox is, but she looks like an Angie doll from the 1970s–Dawn’s friend with long black hair:
AngieDoll
Angie/Megan is the one on the left.
Farrah Fawcett never was all that attractive to me–I never liked her hair style, either.
Tom Hanks is not mega-handsome, either. His mouth is too small for his face.
Jeesh, I’m picky!
Well, for starters, lots of reporters seem to think that any actor or singer is automagically Da Hottest, or at least must be talked about as if (s)he was. Including, for example, Juan Echanove or Jim Carrey. Or a slew of Spanish actresses who share “the mailbox mouth,” ehm, excuse me, “a wide, mobile mouth.” Is that mouth supposed to be attractive because it looks like it’ll be good for BJs or something? Two examples: Ana Belén and Victoria Abril.
Lamia and SleepsWithButterflies, curiously enough it’s mostly since she finished S&TC, but yes, many reporters refer to SJP as “gorgeous.”
Tom Cruise has always looked to me like a blow-up Ken.
For some reason I just don’t “get” Angelina Jolie. And I know that it’s not the lips, so I’m not sure exactly why I don’t “get” her.
Don’t forget his creepy flesh-colored facial hair.
Nothing to add to the conversation other than to note that when I went looking for a link to make a point and Googled “Sarah Jessica Parker,” the autocomplete at Google gave as the fourth shortcut “looks like a horse.”
Uma Thurman has always looked like a frog to me. Great body and all, but not at all attractive to me above the neck.
Leonardo DiCaprio is too fem for my tastes (actually, I kind of see all blond guys that way–Brad Pitt is another one, though not nearly as much as Leo). Actually, a lot of Hollywood guys are too manicured for me–the J. Crew look is too precise and boring.
I’m exposing my “junk food TV” habit, but Daisy De La Hoya of “Daisy of Love” is just a hot mess (and has a personality to match). She’s had so much work done, I can’t tell if she ever was attractive to start with. There’s a reason why the VH-1 message board crowd calls her “Duck Face.” It fits.
Brad Pitt. He looks like a caveman to me.
She was 16 when I met her, I was 19.
I never found Claudia Schiffer attractive. She has very masculine features, IMO.
Maybe not, Scarlett Johansson is about 6 years younger than me, so maybe she was about 14. I thought her brother was younger, oh well.
All the more for me, then.
You have my blessing sir!
Jennifer Garner.
I came in to offer Clark Gable (just watched GWTW the other day), but after looking for a photo to share, I decided that he’s actually quite handsome – at least in photos.
In GWTW, his mouth is too big and juicy and his lips look kinda loose. He has great eyes though.
What do you guys think of the woman in the Palm Pre ads? That’s a very minimalist image, hair pulled back, no visible eyelashes or eyebrows, no makeup. I think she’s quite pretty, which is weird, because eyes and hair and makeup are a big part of what we think of as attractive.
I don’t like Crowe and MacGregor, so I must have no taste, eh? :dubious: Back atcha, since I find them both very lumpy faced and plain.
Not that I have to justify my taste, but I personally do like George Clooney. Taylor Kitsch from Friday Night Lights is my cradle robbing beefcake choice du jour. Christian Bale is very attractive. My all-time favorite has to be Hugh Jackman. He’s pretty much my ideal, as is the young Clint Eastwood.
But of course, YMMV.
Sometimes she’s gorgeous, sometimes she really looks like a duck.
