I have never been a fan of Leonerdo DiCrappio, BUT...
I never cared for his honky voice or his unwashed-looking appearance or his girlish features, but is it me or has this guy turned major league FUGLY lately or what?

1. Tough paper route.

2. Gisele thinks he's plenty hot, thanks.
I think he had a bit of a struggle with his boyish looks.

So did he discover protein or something, I don't know.
He looks mannish now...I personally never found him particularly cute.

I think he has considerable talent.

3. No
He's not fugly. I actually think he is becoming more handsome with age, just like Brad Pitt. They were too "pretty" when they were younger.

10. I agree, I love him.
He's pretty. I see him on the beach in Malibu every so often and he's usually got a bit of a belly and he's not very well toned, but for some reason, it works on him.

7. I've never thought he was very attractive
I was always a little mystified about what all the teeny boppers saw in him. But, I saw "The Aviator" this last weekend and he was great. Good flick and he did a good job.

8. He's handsome in a conventional sort of way
Nothing really outstanding, but a pleasant enough face with an intelligent cast and a fun look in his eyes. He has charm and talent that go deeper than his looks.

9. He's got that tiny-eyed, jowly cracker face...
surprising, since he was such pretty chicken when he was younger

12. I think he's getting better looking as he ages
I'm not big on pretty boys but Leo is growing into a fine looking man. But isn't he like 30?

18. He has a site dedicated to environment conservation.
Some RW idiot, upon being informed of this site's existence, actually said he was an hypocrite because he was rich and was "criticising capitalism." :wtf:

For obvious reasons, I can't go into more detail than that. PM me if you want to be shocked. :crazy:

21. Looks like most people don't find him as "fugly" as you do...
As for the "girlish" thing... I've always loved his androgynous look. He's a good actor and more importantly, a good guy.

23. I'm glad to know he's a nice guy.
I also think wingnut Bruce Willis is highly overrated, but nobody's claiming he's an Adonis...

And it wasn't just the boygirl thing - when he was younger, there was a quality about him that always suggested he hadn't washed in a few days. I've heard that he hates water and hates to shower. I always felt like he had sleep in his eyes and lint in his hair and greasy skin.

I will grant that he's a pretty good actor, though, and I loved Romeo + Juliet, but Claire Danes charmed me much more than he did.

22. I don't know.
He's never floated my boat, but attractiveness can be a subjective thing.

26. I could take or leave him until I saw "The Aviator"
I thought he did a spectacular job in that movie, way beyond my expectations.
