At the risk of sounding superficial…

Are there any celebrities that you have considered attractive who are not particularly famous for their looks ?
(not saying they’re "ugly", but their physicality isn’t their "draw". Probably more men that fit in this category than women, sadly)

A few of my past "crushes”:
Stephen Fry

Oliver Platt

Jack Black

I will respond with someone I think has an “alternate” beauty.
Kate Bush
Catherine Elizabeth Pierson

@Pfuzylogic ok, but she's literally gorgeous. Conventionally. Just put her in today's make up or remove makeup

@greensnacks
These are older pictures especially for Kate. I recall here in her SNL debut with the late 70s hit “Wuthering Heights”.
I’ll give it a whirl with the women……

Helen Mirren, Meryl Streep, Sarah Paulson, Viola Davis, Alfre Woodard, Minnie Driver, Regina King, Sissy Spacek, Cicely Tyson, Mira Sorvino, Sigourney Weaver, Tilda Swinton, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Rita Moreno

Don't even have to think about it - Sally Fields 🤷🏻‍♂ what can I say....
bookerdana · M
@fun4us2b You really like me!🤗Sally at the Oscars
Rosie Perez - (especially the ice cube scene 😜)

@rinkydinkydoink Oh, yes. She’s always been a cutie. 😊
@bijouxbroussard

She was on Letterman quite a few yrs back and she was talking about her new SUV - - the way she pronounced Isuzu Trooper left the host in stitches

@rinkydinkydoink She’s adorable. 😄

Rashida Jones? I don't know if she's known for her looks, but I've always found here beautiful.

@bijouxbroussard Yes, but unlike some actresses/performers, I don't think that's her main claim to fame.
@ChipmunkErnie She’s also quite talented. So is her sister Kidada.
sarabee1995 · 26-30, F
I don't know her name, but I just recently saw the movie Uglies. I thought the female protagonist was beautiful despite being one of the uglies. 🤷‍♀
@sarabee1995 Joey King ? She is beautiful, even in the role.
sarabee1995 · 26-30, F
@bijouxbroussard Yes. Exactly. But in the movie they present the over made up glam images as more attractive and I couldn't disagree more. There's a scene where she's looking at simulations of what she could look like and I thought the before looked much better.
@Longpatrol he's gotten more charismatic as hes gotten older.
Somehow his looks are just getting better and better
Longpatrol · 31-35, M
@OogieBoogie Now he looks like the type to say "My wife and I have been watching you at the bar all evening..."
Mellowgirl · 31-35, F
Tbh I think I might be a little shallow...

Funnily enough my partner looks nothing like any of these men, but I have dated men with very masculine features...
greensnacks · 31-35, F
Jack Black is hot. Have you seen young Jack? A snack.

Steve Carell, David Harbor, Adam Driver, Michael C Hall, James Gandolfini, Rain Wilson, many others. Most of them aren't conventionally attractive
@greensnacks Jack has the most amazing eyes…still does.

Women of the past had an advantage. They could all get away with wearing makeup. Today even men wear makeup. Like a lot of makeup.

Everything today is based on looks. Even resorting to plastic surgery if they must.
@DeWayfarer "Get away" with wearing makeup ? They were expected to wear it ! What advantage is there in it not being socially acceptable to show one’s own face ?

When I was in college, once at a tea one of the sorority girls was critical—all I had on was a bit of lipstick; she was done to the nines.
"Aren’t you going to put on your face ?" she asked.
"Sorry, this is it," I replied.

I am attracted to Sam Heugan as Jamie Frazier in Outlander but as himself without the wig, I dont find him as appealing.
I adore manly men from bygone eras.🥹
@Blondily What a jawline ! 🙂

I thought Conan O Brien was handsome when he was younger. I still love him and think he's hilarious.
I always thought Jack Black had handsom in his face, (not seen the above pic before - now i feel justified 😌 - look at those eyes and brows 😍...fullish lips, both of them).

I also have liked Paul Rudd, Tommy Lee Jones, Dan Arkroyd, Danny Trejo and DJ Qualls at different times in my life.
Kimberly Guilfoyle before all the cosmetic surgery -

@rinkydinkydoink I can’t get past the fact that she hitched her wagon to a Trump…🤢

Kevin James is so handsome

Stanley Tucci curls my toes ☺
@JustNik I get that. He has very intense eyes.

Fairuza Balk

@SledgeHammer She’s really pretty.

@REMsleep Yes !
I can't think of anyone offhand, but I know I've experienced this often (not to say the individuals were at all unattractive, just perhaps a bit more offbeat?), I just need to write down names on a list at the moment it is happening LOL

But one first reflex I had was to say Diane Morgan, though I can't believe anyone wouldn't associate her with good looks, even if she might first be associated with comedy

Hannah Fry (no relation to Stephen that I know of) is an academic and presenter, perhaps she qualifies as a celebrity, and she is certainly attractive
I had a similar feeling recently about Leila Farzad in Kaos (which is hilarious, btw)


One instance of disagreement I had with a family member was over Najwa Nimri ... I htink Nimri is gorgeous (regardless of what hair color she has at any given time, but her natural half-Spanish, half-Jordanian brunette is lovely), and the family member thinks Nimri is ugly ... I don't get it

@bijouxbroussard Do you have a roku box? If you can get the Roku channel, they actually have lot's of good shows, and they're free...

@fun4us2b
A complete laugh riot, I say

😂
@fun4us2b Yes, I got rid of cable a few months ago and have been using Roku and Prime. If it’s on Roku, I’m set.
