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

Agree and her music is crap too

leilani83 · 10/02/2024 14:38

Paul Mescal (although he is a very good actor)
Bradley Cooper (never got the hype about him)
Tom Hiddleston (mousey-looking with that ratty hair, and oddly creepy)
Daniel Craig (although a brilliant actor!)
Robbie Williams (vile, looks and personality-wise)

To this day I cannot comprehend how Kate Moss reached the heights of super model stardom that she did. I think she’s so plain.

Agree with this too, she is exactly what I think of when I think of an average looking woman

I don't get the Tatum changing thing

Oh my no he’s my fave 😂

leilani83 · 10/02/2024 14:45

Oh, and in a way, Kit Harington. I can see he's nice-looking but I find him very bland, and he and Emilia Clarke had zero chemistry in GoT. I never got the excitement about those two together!

@JamSandle you're telling me Beyonce isn't anything special? She's a Goddess!

According to you😂 what great contribution did she make to this world? Another overrated hype is Taylor swift. Just can't understand the hype around her.

herecomesthesun24 · 10/02/2024 14:49

It’s not just Kate Moss’s face though is it, she’s kept the physique (possibly not all that healthily through smoking, drugs and diet regime)

I’m a similar age to her and would love to look like her in photos rather than thinking I look alright and then seeing a picture of a potato with a bob!

KreedKafer · 10/02/2024 14:52

Tom Hardy, Brad Pitt, Harry Styles, Tom Hiddlestone, Daniel Craig

Kate Moss. I just don't get what's so special about her.

she’s amazingly photogenic though imo

Absolutely, I think that's it about her. I love her look.

Johnny Depp. Never found him attractive ever.

See, again - as Jack Sparrow, yes. As himself, no.

Anjelika · 10/02/2024 16:18

Tom Hardy for me. Don't get the love for him at all. Or Channing Tatum. Didn't use to find Cillian Murphy remotely attractive but he was pretty mesmerising in Oppenheimer. Have never liked Robbie Williams - looks or personality.

WibblyWobblyWeeble · 10/02/2024 16:22

Also Tom Hardy and Channing Tatum.

YankSplaining · 10/02/2024 16:23

To me, Timothee Chalamet is like a glass vase. You can look at the glass vase and say “Oh, that’s beautiful,” but it looks so thin and delicate that you might be a little afraid to touch it. And you definitely don’t want to have sex with it. 😂

I think Brad Pitt only just got attractive in the last decade. I wasn’t into his 1990s pretty-boy phase. Jason Momoa has way too many muscles and Channing Tatum’s neck puts me off.

When it comes to women, I don’t understand why women think Jennifer Aniston is so beautiful - and I say women, because her looks don’t really seem to ping on men’s radars. She’s pretty, and she’s aged well, but she’s not a stunning beauty.

Re: Benedict Cumberbatch, I think his voice is part of the attraction. If you’re just looking at a picture of him, it doesn’t quite communicate all of his appeal.

Laiste · 10/02/2024 16:24

Harry Styles.

Wouldn't look twice at him in the street and i've thought that since Cowell bunged all the failures together in x factor.

<ducks>

BarbieDangerous · 10/02/2024 16:25

BusySittingDown · 09/02/2024 21:38

It's Timotheé Chalamet. Poor boy, you don't find him attractive and you've butchered his name!!! 😂

😂😂😂

I agree! He's mesmerising in The King. But if i was his Princess i'd wrap him up in a blanket and get him a hot meal 😂

Getthethrowonthesofa · 10/02/2024 16:28

Same with Daniel Craig. Daniel Craig as bond, absolutely. Daniel as Daniel , nope. Watched him being interviewed once, what a bloody diva . Dudes proper punching with Rachel Weisz. Who comes across as a thoroughly normal woman. I can only imagine she must tell him to stfu on the regular.

also Russel Crowe, as someone else said, Russell in gladiator, yes please. Russel as Russel. Not so much. Chubby Russel with his much younger girlfriends, just nope.

CheeseSandwichRiskAssessment · 10/02/2024 16:29

I watched the Bodyguard for the first time recent and was wondering about Kevin Costner, he was considered a major sex symbol in the 90s ? I don't really see it, plus his acting was pretty wooden.

Tattletwat · 10/02/2024 16:35

Jeremy Allen white from the bear.

Adam driver we were meant to believe he was. Kid of Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher in the Star wars films.

Women Emma Watson.

He has bird-thin thighs and a tiny bum. When there’s that brief shot of him naked from behind in Call Me By Your Name, I was like, “Dear God, there’s no flesh there.”

barkymcbark · 10/02/2024 16:40

Tom Hardy - just don't get it
Henry Cavill - lived him in The Witcher but just find him so smarmy in real life
Cillian Murphy - same boat as Tom Hardy

Seriously? How can you say that? OMG, Boyonce is beyond stunning. She's on another level of total gorgeousness!!! And I say that as a 48 year old woman!

Beyoncé has legs like tree trunks.

sorestupid · 10/02/2024 16:44

I do think a lot of famous people have ‘gloss’ though that sets them apart from the rest of us, and that can make a lot of them quite mesmerising if you see them in the flesh. I think it comes from expensive skincare and clothing and having regular treatments by professionals rather than trying to cram in some self care alongside a full time low paid job and other commitments. I live in London so sometimes see some famous/very rich people out and about and even the less attractive ones have this glossy vibe that makes them look slightly different.

This is true, it's the gloss of wealth.

sorestupid · 10/02/2024 16:45

Beyoncé has legs like tree trunks.

A) she doesn't
B) why would that make a difference to whether her face is beautiful or not?

sorestupid · 10/02/2024 16:46

Tom Hardy is hot!

And Henry Cavill in the Tudors
