Which “hot” people don’t you fancy?

Just for fun….

Which famous people that are known by many as being sexy do you just not feel the same way about?

For me it’s Keira Knightley and Colin Firth…

I just really can’t see what the fuss is about no matter how many time I look at photos of them or see them in films 😂

Changing Tatum. Looks like a potato

Seconded. Also there's nothing I find less sexy than a man gyrating

I also had no idea that anyone thought Robbie Williams was attractive on account of his personality being so loathsome.

I don't know his personality. For me it's on account of him looking like a frog. When I read the thread title, Robbie was nowhere in my mind as being a contender

NippyWoowoo · 13/09/2022 23:31

Has anyone said Colin Farrel yet?

Still making my way through the list. I agree with most others I've read so far.

And lol at the few falling over themselves to let everyone know they can't just follow the brief prefer brains over looks or are just too eclectic for the mere mortals 🙄

ZebraLyghts · 13/09/2022 23:38

Don't understand the attraction to:

Tom Hardy,
Cumberbatch,
Tom Holland,
Channing Tatum,
Harry Styles,
George Clooney

The obsession over BTS, and Harry styles/Tom Holland makes me feel old! They all look 12 to me!

However I'd climb over my nan to get to Chris Pine, Chris Hemsworth, Cillian Murphy, Tom Cruise..

For me, the hottest men alive are Ben Barnes, and Rob James Collier (fella who plays Thomas the gay footman/butler in Downton). Both gorgeous

notprincehamlet · 13/09/2022 23:39

Channing Tatum looks like General Staal of the tenth Sontaran fleet

I must be very shallow as I definitely don't prefer brains over looks (in my celeb crushes at least haha!).

Lawd have you seen Colin Farrell in the Fright Night remake though? If any film can make you fancy him it's that one

CambsAlways · 13/09/2022 23:41

Amanda Holden & Carol vorderman , Robbie Williams. Tom hardy

What are people’s thoughts on Luke Evans?

I’ve never really understand the Gary Barlow love either.

Omg LOVE Luke Evans, he was such a good Gaston 😂 looks and a voice? If he ever decided he was into women I'd be first in line (that's who we're talking about right?)

NippyWoowoo · 13/09/2022 23:53

Trying to think of some others that haven't come up yet...

Orlando Bloom
Patrick Dempsey
Timothee Chalamet Confused
Dwayne The Rock Johnson
HUGH JACKMAN. I just do not see it.

AuntViv · 13/09/2022 23:58

I'd have said no to so many but then I watch something where I think they look so hot in. But never see them as hot anywhere else. That category for me would be :

Brad Pitt in Thelma and Louise
George Clooney in Dusk Til Dawn
Channing Tatum - Step Up
David Beckham - his look in 1998 when he was sent off for England
Jason Mamoa - GOT

Other then all the above things I've seen them in I'd be in total agreement that I wouldn't find them that hot!

I don't find the below hot :

Harry styles
Idris Elba (but I like his voice!)
Bradley Cooper
Jamie Dornan
Tom hardy
Mark owen, in fact any of take that (maybe Howard at the start)
Jason Priestley
Jason Donovan

NippyWoowoo · 13/09/2022 23:59

Women:

Scarlett Johansson (similar to Cillian Murphy, lopsided features)

Gigi/Bella Hadid

Kate Upton

Chrissy Tiegen

Marylin Monroe

Jasmine5552 · 14/09/2022 00:04

Brad Pitt

MuchuseasaChocolateTeapot · 14/09/2022 00:14

Not his looks necessarily but I think you could have all sorts of fun with Colin Farrell!

Lesserspotteddogfish · 14/09/2022 00:15

Robbie Williams looks like a fish.
Angelina Jolie looks skeletal and unremarkable.

Lesserspotteddogfish · 14/09/2022 00:17

And Jake Gyllenhaal. Don’t know why, but he reminds me of an ant.

ThirtyThreeTrees · 14/09/2022 00:28

Absolutely none of them. They seem so far away, don't move in the same circles and live in another world. The fame would put me off. I also find a lot of celebrities very vacuous. I find it difficult to fancy people I don't know. Personality is a huge part of attraction to me.

It'd much rather fantisise about the bar man in our local or the new guy in sales. It's more real,more attainable (even though I'd never go there) if that makes any sense.

Couldn’t agree more.

I’ve never fancied David Beckham or Harry Styles. I don’t really like ‘pretty’ looking men. I prefer them a bit rough around the edges.

David Beckham looks like hell, how much rougher do you want?

smooththecat · 14/09/2022 00:43

ToffeeNotCoffee · 13/09/2022 22:20

Brad Pitt - um no, I don't get why he's attractive. To me, he's boring looks wise.

Leonardo di Caprio - looks about 12 years old. All. the. time.

David Beckham - his youth loaned him some good looks but lately, nope. Grim. his many tattoos just make his skin look dirty.

Hugh Grant - jeez what a prat.

George Clooney - um sort of ok but never really got why people think he's hot.

Robbie Williams - just looks like a serial killer these days.

Leonardo Dicaprio looks 12? He looks ancient! I don’t know what people are smoking on this thread.

SleepingAgent · 14/09/2022 00:47

Tom Cruise for me. My gaydar goes off every time I see his smug little Scientologist smirk. Urgh.

Johnny Depp. I have always found him creepy.

He never appealed to me either, always seemed a bit asexual.

AmeliaLila · 14/09/2022 01:10

All of the ones mentioned I don’t find attractive. I did meet Tom cruise briefly once and he is a nice man but zero presence. I like unconventional looking men such as Claes Bang and Will young 😂.

Lesserspotteddogfish · 14/09/2022 00:17

Ryan Gosling reminds me of a parrot 🦜
