To not find George Clooney attractive

I honestly don’t get the fuss about him!
Just looks like someone’s ordinary grandad to me, I’m expecting a lot of strong disagreementsGrin

Trooperslane2 oh good lord, have you seen those new photos of JD that just surfaced? Awful. I used to love him so much.

mummyflood · 03/06/2018 11:26

Nope. Don't get it. nor Brad Pitt, David Beckham et al...now give me Billie Joe Armstrong (Greenday lead singer) any day....Smile

findingmyfeet12 · 03/06/2018 11:27

I agree about the George Clooney and Pierce Brosnan Ken doll thing.

I'm also another one who doesn't get Brad Pitt's appeal.

I much prefer Keanu Reeve's looks.

MrsLaurac · 03/06/2018 11:29

I have to admit to bring a bit of a George fan.
However, I have never liked David Beckham.

lljkk · 03/06/2018 11:32

Keanu turns me off. I can't get past Bill & Ted. Sometimes a good actor, though. Leo Di & BP both much better looking with age, than when they were young imho.

David Beckham is so much more attractive since he had voice coaching; he used to be good eye candy but then would open mouth & ruin the effect.

MadisonAvenue · 03/06/2018 11:32

mummyflood yes! Billie Joe would be my choice too!

HappyLollipop · 03/06/2018 11:32

I don't find him attractive but I'm 25, I can see he used to be handsome but that's all gone now. Never understood the love for brad Pitt either as I've always thought his eyes are too close together and he always looks like he's squinting, I guess he's trying to look brooding but it always just looks like he's got the sun in his eyes.

TSSDNCOP · 03/06/2018 11:36

You see for those of us that first met Doug Ross, George will always be swoontastic. He nailed it as Danny ocean, so much foxier than Brad. My friend met him recently and lost the power of speech. I would too.

metalmum15 · 03/06/2018 11:41

kittenbeast I've seen the photos of JD, he looks awful, like a wasted junkie quite frankly. I thought he was absolutely gorgeous around 10 years ago but now. ..no.
George Clooney is handsome in that traditional kind of older man way, but I prefer more rugged men. Yes to Billie Joe, Norman Reedus, even Keanu is still quite nice. I've never liked Tom Cruise or Brad Pitt.

metalmum15 · 03/06/2018 11:44

Ooh and Robert Downey Jr, never fancied him years ago but now I so would!

RedDwarves · 03/06/2018 11:44

Re JD, I think he's filming at the moment, and his character is supposed to be terminally ill.

TSSDNCOP · 03/06/2018 11:45

kitten I know that we are all supposed to hate Jonny now, but you have to worry about his health in those photos. It’s so sad that he’s fallen so dramatically from grace because of his terrible behaviours, he was on my laminated Top 5 for a while there until I got a new laminator Grin

TSSDNCOP · 03/06/2018 11:46

Red that’s better news.

butlerswharf · 03/06/2018 11:47

@Moussemoose beat me to what I was going to say!

KittenBeast · 03/06/2018 11:48

TSSDNCOP it is quite startling, but just seen Red's post that he's playing a terminally ill patient. That would explain the terminally ill look, thank goodness. But even before that he was going downhill, all puffy and wasted looking.

Baubletrouble43 · 03/06/2018 11:54

Same. Don't fancy Clooney or Tom cruise or brad Pitt or johnny depp. Give me Michael fassbender any day !

Marmaladdin · 03/06/2018 11:56

There's something very very sexy about GC. I don't like him or find him overly attractive but I do worry that I'd accidentally shag him if I met him. Like he'd just look at someone and their clothes would pop off. It's the eyes. Some sort of witchcraft right there.

Baubletrouble43 · 03/06/2018 11:59

Hahaha Marm I have that feeling about Colin Farrell! I know he's a wrong un but i would be powerless!

Moussemoose · 03/06/2018 12:00

As I get older I like my men older too. It would feel pervy to fancy someone who is in their twenties. George is like a fiiiiiiine wine, mellowing with age.

mothertruck3r · 03/06/2018 12:03

He's the cliche that women are expected to fancy, i.e. tall, dark and "handsome". I don't find him attractive either.

carnitine · 03/06/2018 12:04

I don't think he is one bit attractive either. The 'sense of humour and big joker' persona does not appear to me to be genuine, it seems to come across as so forced.

JeremyWadesTackle · 03/06/2018 12:06

Sexiest man alive has to be Jim Caviezel, jeez, he is so gorgoeous, thats what tall, dark and handsome means to me Blush

findingmyfeet12 · 03/06/2018 12:07

I quite liked JD back in the day. The way he dresses is a bit tragic for a man of his age though and I'm embarrassed for him. Only the likes of Keith Richards can get away with that.

ElenOfTheWays · 03/06/2018 12:18

YANBU to not fancy a cut price Cary Grant, no.
Never could see it myself. Or Brad "hamster cheeks" Pitt.

Matthew Gray Gubler on the other hand...

I like em skinny lol Grin

wizzywig · 03/06/2018 12:23

Oohh loving the bitchy comments, cut price cary grant.
