Almost all male actors.

It's not even just that they're not my type I find lots actively ugly.

Like Brad Pitt isn't my type but I can see what other women see in him.

But Benedict Cumberbatch, Ryan Gosling, Adam Driver, Owen Wilson, Jack Black, Ben Stiller. Yuk. Not even for £1M.

I don't find many people really attractive, I like Ryan Reynolds' humour, especially having watched him in the Wrexham documentary.

I don't understand people saying they don't think Jason Momoa is attractive, but I guess it's personal taste. I saw him speaking Dothraki to Sarah Millican on the Graham Norton show and totally empathised with her fluttering! I like that he did the Superbowl advert where he takes off his muscles/wig, he's clearly able to not take himself totally seriously.

Looks fade, character is key, I suppose. If an actor plays a horrible character, I go right off him/her!

Ryan Giggs.

But surely it's his ability to write poetry that is the attractive part of him?

Wasn't there an old saying 'never trust a man whose eyes are too close together'

LlynTegid · 10/02/2024 18:57

Ryan Giggs.

Beyonce. I just don't think shes anything special. It feels like sacrilege to say it.

Her music makes me want to slice my own ears off and eat them. Luckily, my rado has a tuning dial and off switch.

sorestupid · 10/02/2024 18:53

She also definitely lifted her brows/opened her eyes up although I think most celebs have done this now.

sorestupid · 10/02/2024 18:48

Taylor Swift is very talented & clearly business acumen. Lovely figure but facially think she's very average, she generally has bad hair styling I think.

herecomesthesun24 · 10/02/2024 18:40

Daniel Craig will forever be the alcoholic Geordie in Our Friends in the North to me, so I could never quite comprehend his promotion to Bond.

Kevin Bacon has a bit of a piggy look to him (fitting name!)

Amanda Holden obviously works hard at looking good and achieves that in a way but I've never thought she looked naturally attractive, she seems a bit wooden?

This thread is so interesting.

Beauty is obviously subjective, what is beautiful to some isn't to others and vice versa.

Although, Jesus Christ, some of the comments...

I'd love to see what some of YOU lot look like.
"Beyoncé has legs like tree trunks."
"Kate Moss is plain."
Nah, they're not!

Beyoncé has fabulous, strong legs.

I am plain and so is Kate Moss.

Oh and Beyonce has got legs like tree trunks although I do think she is quite attractive.

Meghan Markle is stunningly beautiful

BigMandsTattooPortfolio · 10/02/2024 18:35

I think Taylor is an amazonian beauty and looks amazing, but for some reason she’s always put me in mind of a young Theresa May,

leilani83 · 10/02/2024 18:31

And Taylor Swift is just perfect-looking!

leilani83 · 10/02/2024 18:25

Don't agree with some of the names here though.

Cillian Murphy was very beautiful if unusual-looking, but has aged (who doesn't?).
Kate Moss as well, a quirky beauty but a beauty nevertheless, amazing cheekbones and striking eyes, but she's aged. Women are allowed to!
Beyonce is beautiful and has a stunning figure (and I'm not even a fan).
Angelina Jolie is beautiful but has strong features that will obviously become even more pronounced with age.
Channing Tatum - he does look a bit like a potato, but I find him very charismatic, which counts for a lot!
And Jason Momoa, how can you!! He's totes gorge! 😍

But of course these things are highly subjective.

I dispute that! It’s an insult to horses!

Lol. Sorry horses.

GellerYeller · 10/02/2024 18:17

Defrosted 😂 Nailed it.

SomeCatFromJapan · 10/02/2024 18:05

Because he looks like he’s been defrosted?

Howling at that 😂

He was hot in the 28 Days Later/Sunshine era though imo.

Tattletwat · 10/02/2024 17:59

I'm laughing at the multiple posters defending Beyonce its like Jay z has accounts.

That said he is a really ugly man.

mydogisthebest · 10/02/2024 17:50

I have always thought Kate Moss is extremely plain.

I don't think Angelina Jolie is particularly attractive.

David Tennant, Daniel Craig I don't find attractive at all

There is nothing about him I find attractive!

Edited

My face was 😬and I recoiled from my laptop when that photo came up! Nope, I don't just not get it, I actually find Cillian deeply physically unattractive.

Many actors I only find attractive on certain roles (eg Tom Hiddleston in The Night Manager, or J Depp as Cpt Sparrow), or on film rather than in photos (eg Daniel Craig. In good interviews his face lights up and his eyes sparkle, so instantly more attractive to me).

How can anyone not fancy Cillian? Those cheekbones, he’s got an Irish accent and he’s deprecating and also amusing. I absolutely love him.

I think Angelina Jolies face is mesmerising.

EmpressSoleil · 10/02/2024 17:16

Vicky McClure. I’ve seen people on here say she’s “stunning” but to me she looks hard faced and quite average. Plus she has quite “starey” eyes that I don’t like.

George Clooney. He’s always just looked like an old man to me. But then I’ve never been into older men.

Angelina Jolie. She is beautiful but too thin, which ruins it for me. While it’s rare to see non glammed up photos of her, there are a few around and she looks quite haggard. Also Brad Pitt, never got the hype. Although I do think Shiloh is very pretty, I think she got the best of both of them.

Tooolde · 10/02/2024 17:14
