Reader beware: I bite when it comes to judging men. A girl’s gotta have taste right? Thankfully we all don’t have the same taste or there would be FAR more girl on girl crime than exists already (things might turn into a scene straight from Mean Girls).
I can especially be harsh when it comes to famous guys. Here are my top 5 “only attractive because they’re famous” men (in no particular order).
1. Lil Wayne. I have a friend who is completely NUTS over this guy. She thinks he is the hottest thing since slice bread. Umm? *scratches head* Are we looking at the same dude? Don’t get me wrong, I personally love Lil Wayne’s music, but DAMN is he ugly. You can keep your lollipop, I’ll stick to chewing gum.
2. A-Rod. Now I know some girls out there are sending me death rays right now, but I just don’t see it. I saw a picture of him today in US Weekly and cringed. Good for you Cameron Diaz if that’s what you’re into but he’d never hit a homerun in my ballpark (wow, that was corny).
3. Pau Gasol. While we’re on our sports’ tip, I have to bring this ape of a man into the mix. For those of you who don’t know, Gasol is a forward and sometimes center for the L.A Lakers and an eyesore for all. Measuring in at exactly 7 feet, he is 250 lbs of bad, gangly, Spanish genes. I admit (though I hate the Lakers), he is a good player, but for some reason basketball players just aren’t attractive, well for the most part. Maybe they figure they have to get girls somehow, why not be a famous athlete?
4. Marilyn Manson. Now, I’ll never understand this one. Just LOOK at him. I don’t know ONE person who would call him attractive, let alone sexy, yet he lands the most beautiful girls (Evan Rachel Wood anyone). W.T.F? How does this happen? I’ll tell you how: F.A.M.E…and of course money doesn’t hurt.
5. Jon Heder. Best remembered as the kid who couldn’t find his chapstick (well, Napoleon, you’re making our eyes hurt real bad). Yea, he has gotten a tad better looking since his Dynamite days, but that smile is hard to forget, and not in a good way.
There you have it. My “list” of ugly celebs. The best part (#sarcasm) is that most of the guys on this list have gotten SO many women; Lil Wayne has like 9 kids for crying out loud!
Who’s on your “only attractive because they’re famous” list? Would any of mine be on yours too?

Jon Heder isnt THAT bad when he’s out of character. LOL The only other guy on this list I think looks ok is A-Rod. I know who he is but I’m not a sports person but he’s nice looking.
And about Lil Wayne, to some women any man that has money is attractive. XD!!

Nerds are cute.

Paris Hilton.

lil wayne’s face tatts and the way he talks is obnoxious and ruined his appeal to me, but he has nice facial features. I think his nose is cute. a-rod looks girly. gasol’s permed hair isn’t attractive. marilyn looks freaky and it would be interesting to have sex while looking at someone, who has krusty the clown makeup on
I can’t stand jon’s buck toothed mouth:D

Kirsten Dunst, anyone? Since The Virgin Suidices, I never understood it.

@TequilaKisses@xanga - Yes.
guest
A-Rod is just an average, normal looking guy to me.
@TequilaKisses@xanga - She’s got a hot body and a cute voice with an acceptable face. Sounds doable to me!

sans makeup, he’s not bad at all.
as for the rest of your list, i agree. a-rod has pretty eyes, but he looks like a tank.
guest
Dennis Rodman
Hulk Hogan
Gene Simmons
Elijah Wood
Danielle Radcliffe
guest
@raspbxrrryjam@xanga - But if she were poor and not famous without 5lbs of make-up, she’d look like someone smashed her face with the business end of a
shovel, then she fell face first out of the ambulance. Too skinny, barely tits, big feet, plus she wouldn’t make it far in regular life with that snobby attitude and cutesy voice as in her BFF show.
daisy / 558 posts
@PsychedelicaMF@xanga - Yup. Nerds are cuuuuuteee. I love unconventional beauty.
guest
Attractiveness isn’t just physical… Horrible pictures…
ranunculus / 3457 posts
Christina Hendricks (have you seen her without makeup? YUCK), Eva Longoria, Sarah Jessica Parker, Michael Cera, Lady Gaga, Demi Lovato, Justin Timberlake, and…. half of Lovelyish will hate me… James Franco I don’t find attractive.
IMO most celebrities are just average looking. They just have the help of stylists, plastic surgeons, makeup artists, and Photoshop that the rest of us don’t have. It’s very few celebs who actual have true natural beauty, makeup-less and all.
guest
One question to ask yourself when thinking about this is:
Would you find them attractive if you saw them on the street and they were nobodies?
This is if we’re strictly speaking about physical appearance.
I know there are plenty of male celebrities girls crush on because they fall for their character in some film, or simply because they’re intelligent. I’d find it difficult to come up with a list of women guys only find attractive because of their fame, because men generally don’t give a shit about that.
guest
wow this is so shallow
guest
@TequilaKisses@xanga - If you’ve ever seen her in person… she doesn’t seem to wear anything close to 5lbs of makeup. I think her face looks just fine.
She’s not too skinny, not everyone likes massive tits, and she’s tall so of course she has big feet.
@MoonFaeEyryan@xanga - I agree with most of your list AND the fact that most celebs aren’t that great looking.
What’s funny about it the styling, the hair and makeup, and the photo shop… is how many celebs you see in person (Living in LA perk) and find that they’re much BETTER looking than you thought.
guest
@raspbxrrryjam@xanga - To each of their own.

jon heder is actually really cute not in napoleon dynamite character.
guest
I feel kind of mean for judging people based on their appearance but in the context that we are naming guys that are only attractive to people because they are famous, I would add Robert Pattinson. I really think the Twilight series did wonders for him because he really isn’t that attractive (not attractive at all to me…).
guest
@MoonFaeEyryan@xanga - Completely agree with your whole list. Especially Christina Hendricks. Never understood the hype about her. Guys will stare at any girl that will leave their massive boobs hanging out in every outfit, whether they’re attractive or not.
guest
I love Marilyn Manson. I’m a big fan of the shock-glam-goth-cabaret style and I like his intelligent and dry sense of humour, and his lyrics (well, up until the Eat me, Drink Me album) and music are great. All around, I find him undeniably sexy.
daffodil / 1525 posts
@citadel_of_stars@xanga - also agreed, she has super huge boobs and I’ve heard so many “omg i’d go lesbian for her” remarks but I don’t understand it. Also Pau Gasol is pretty cute, and 2 and 5 aren’t that bad either.

Definitely everyone already listed. Plus,

guest
I wanted to lose my virginity to Marilyn Manson. What are you talkin’ about, he’s so sexy to me and I DUNNO WHY EITHER!!!!!!!!!!! Lmao. But dude, I’d take a ride on him any day. Mmmmmm…
I don’t have a list though. :/
guest
katy perry.
she’s a total five head.
i could literally make a mile long list on this one haha

I don’t have a list and I don’t want one..
guest
A-Rod looks like a frog.
sunflower / 353 posts
Ugh…Lil’ Wayne doesn’t just look ugly. He just looks nasty! If this guy tried to approach me on the street I’d immediately walk–no, RUN–the other way.
guest
There’s more to it than looks I think. Marilyn Manson is not a looker, but at least he’s talented and intelligent, so I guess I can kinda understand the appeal.
Lil Wayne on the other hand, I will never understand, he has neither looks nor talent (in my opinion). It’s probably because he has money. Or a great personality, but I don’t know, I’ve never spoken to the guy.
guest
@ScorpioInBlack@xanga - I know! They are only “Attractive” because of what they can offer and that’s money. Marilyn Manson and Lil Wayne are extra, extra, extra, extra, extra, HIDEOUS!!! Who would be blind enough to make love to them????
rose / 903 posts
There are way too many celebrities that would be considered average or ugly. Justin Timberlake, Jay-Z, Amanda Seyfried…
guest
Lil’ Lame is ugly as fuck, and he does NOT make music.
Clicky and >clicky<
daisy / 647 posts
Yeah, I don’t care how famous they are. Marilyn Manson and Lil Wayne are sleazy and extremely unattractive.
I’ll stick to my sophisticated famous men like Joseph Gordon Levitt.
guest
yeah, this is a waste.
guest
Maybe, just maybe, other people have different taste than you. Also… did you think they became rich and famous for no reason? Perhaps they are liked because of the thing that got them rich and famous- their talent maybe?
I don’t personally find any of these guys physically attractive, except, sometimes, A-Rod, but I’m not about to make a list.
guest
I don’t even like Lil’ Wayne’s music, but if I got the opportunity for a one-night-stand with him, I’d do it just to be able to say that I did. …bahaha. I just realized that sounds so ridiculous.
guest
@Ailean@xanga - I kind of do too! He is really smart, and he actually knows his shit when it comes to music, which is rare in the pop music industry. I’d take that over a pretty boy with nothing going on in the brains department.
guest
WHOA WHOA! A-Rod Is gorgeous! Not because he’s famous!
guest
I don’t find A-Rod attractive either. I don’t think Jon Heder is as bad as these other guys when he is out of character.
guest
All ugly to me. I’m shallow but not shallow enough to have a “Only Attractive Becasuse They’re Famous” list
Shame on you.
guest
You can’t count celebrities who wear costume and costume make up, such as Marylin Manson. They may be really attractive. Look at Lady Gaga, if she wears little make up she’s beautiful. A lot of time celebrities’ makeup don’t do them any justice.
The only celebrity I find unattractive is Selena Gomez (and that’s only because my boyfriend’s obsessed with her).
guest
I don’t know why people think Lil Wayne is sexy. Ugh, he’s gross.
sunflower / 432 posts
@misswildflower@xanga - So you don’t actually find Selena Gomez unattractive, you’re just jealous of her because your boyfriend is “obsessed” with her.
Self-awareness is a good thing.
sunflower / 432 posts
You put up Napoleon Dynamite, not Jon Heder. That’s a character he played, not how he actually looks.
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_JBv5UCAAbo0/S6zamVUigHI/AAAAAAAABU4/xL9ts4RLmqM/s1600/jon_heder.jpg
Also I think A-Rod is mildly attractive.Other than that I agree with you.
guest
@ScorpioInBlack@xanga - I agree with all of those! I also think that Sarah Jessica Parker should be on the list. :/
guest
I honestly find Marilyn Manson attractive. Maybe I’m just backward, but I think he’s sexy, lol. Even without the fame, money or pounds of makeup.
guest
Johnny Depp… amazing actor, but I just don’t get it!
guest
Oh and Lil John. I was scarred for life when I saw him on Celebrity Apprentice.
guest
@thisiswhereItellyoueverything@xanga - No I don’t find her pretty and she’s not like me at all so I don’t understand why he’s obsessed with her.
guest
@TequilaKisses@xanga - Big feet are hott, and she has a big ass, too. I wonder what kinds of things have made their way in and out of that ass.
guest
Are most normal women over Mick Jagger by now? He’s getting a lot more reptilian anymore…
guest
@kilikijay@xanga - I agree. Robert Patterson isn’t attractive at all, in my opinion.
guest
I think Lil Wayne and Marilyn Manson are mighty fine.
sunflower / 432 posts
@misswildflower@xanga - …So you’re only ever really attracted to people who are like your boyfriend?
I’ve been attracted to a very wide variety of types of people. And I assume my boyfriend has too.
guest
TOTALLY. 100% agree. Peoples level of attractiveness definitely increase based on the fact that they are famous, and I think it’s something subconscious. I mean, if you keep seeing their pictures you’re going to get familiar with them, so when you see their face it becomes less surprising and less unsettling. And their talent just adds to it. I agree with your friend on the lilwayne thing…for some reason I find him intriguing, but that could just be because I like his witty raps so if I was to every pick someone to do a song with, I would pick him.
sunflower / 416 posts
Lil’ Wayne will never be hot. Ever. And he will also never have a good voice. I don’t understand why anyone likes his music. It’s so annoying to me.
guest
I absolutely LOVE Jon Heder and think he’s adorable lol. But other than that, I agree with your list.
magnolia / 1027 posts
I call Gasol “My Beast” lol.. He is an ugly man, but I do find his talent and the fact that he’s an ambassador for UNICEF very attractive. He’s also a huge supporter of the Children’s Hospital in Los Angeles. I saw him at a taping of George Lopez (which made me melt into putty cuz his interview was last minute for our time slot) and he just seemed like a genuinely nice guy. Also, he actually was going to pursue a career in medicine, his mom a surgeon and father a nurse (or vice versa. i can’t remember), before he ended up in the NBA (doesn’t all that make him that much more “attractive”? lol)
guest
@thisiswhereItellyoueverything@xanga - Actually yes I am. I have a thing for nerdy guys
guest
A-Rod is hot!!!
guest
I’m just going to hi-jack your list and say it’s mine because I completely agree! I have a friend who is obsessed with Lil’ Wayne and I’m like “really?!?!”
guest
all of these guys are disgusting.
guest
1. He looks like he should be killing chickens for voodoo. lol.
2. I don’t like that kind of guy, but I imagine a lot of girls do, famous or not.
3. Good hair, needs to shave the beard, but yeah, still not entirely cute.
4. Shouldn’t you put a pic of what Manson actually looks like? Not that it’s any better, really. He’s aging. I didn’t know people thought he was hot in the makeup.
5. I think the point is for him to look bad for that movie. He looks a lot different, definitely cuter.

Lil Wayne is so unattractive it’s sickening. I don’t like his music, either (but then again, I don’t like most hip hop)
A-Rod is decent-looking to me. Not hot, but just decent.
Jon Heder looks regular to me. Not ugly, not cute. Just regular…
guest
its NOT all about looks…just saying
rose / 980 posts
Matt Damon. Well, I don’t think he’s particularly attractive but I do think people think he is but only because he is famous.
guest
lol I think little Wayne should be in pirates of the caribbean. he already has the look.
sunflower / 432 posts
@misswildflower@xanga - Well I have a thing for nice guys but that doesn’t mean they all look the same. Nor does it mean that anyone else is only ever attracted to one type of person.
guest
@thisiswhereItellyoueverything@xanga - Good for you, but that’s you and not me. Since I’ve been dating my boyfriend I haven’t really been attracted to anyone else except him so lay off and quit judging me.
daisy / 696 posts
Lil Wayne is disgusting looking. Everyone else is alright.

there are more tragic examples than these.
megan fox[watch confessions of a teenage drama queen ad you'll see the magic of surgery]
nicole richie[jesus]
paris hilton[jesus]
miley cyrus[kinda obvious]
katy perry[oh yes]
j.Lo,christina aguilera and cameron diaz have already been shown too many times without make up,so i don’t even bother,i think people know:P
sunflower / 432 posts
@misswildflower@xanga - I’m not saying you have to be attracted to other people while you’re with someone, I’m saying that people are attracted to more than just one type of person and it’s ridiculous to assume that your boyfriend wouldn’t be attracted to Selena Gomez because she’s “not like me.”
Attraction doesn’t work like that.
guest
lil wayne isn’t attractive at all. i don’t care how famous he is
guest
I love Lil Wayne. But yeah, he’s pretty ugly.
guest
Um ew. People think those guys are hot?
guest
Sorry to butt in on this, very interesting entry, I must say, but would Jay-Z be an honorable mention in your entry’s topic? I’ve been told he’s ugly but his fortune and fame, even if it was his vast fortune alone without any fame, was what got him nailing any chick he wanted and being able to put a ring on Beyonce making her his own wife.
guest
Oh a friend of mine wanted me to paint a picture of Lil Wayne for her. Shirtless picture, of course. She is crazy about him, and I don’t see it. I’m thinking its the face tattoos. Yup.
guest
I find Marilyn Manson sexy :3
