Name a celebrity who has lost his/her looks

I just saw "Blind Date" with Bruce Willis-and I remember how cute he was. Today, the chrome-dome look does nothing for him.

1. Like "lost them" as in losing a set of keys?

If so, I have keys all over the place.

He set out to destroy his looks.

59. Passing this along. . .

I'd love to be able to take credit for this line.

Michael Jackson represents everything good about America. In what other country could a poor black boy grow up to be a rich white woman?

8. clint eastwood

don't laugh, he wasn't always an ugly shriveled old man, he was once the beautiful star of "play misty for me"

otoh, as a physically ugly shriveled old man, he has done some of his best work and actually learned how to act and direct so looks ain't everything

61. A couple of weeks ago, my coworker and I were discussing the movie Cars.

I said something about Paul Newman being the voice of Doc Hudson, and she said, "Who is Paul Newman?"

I had to explain that he's a legendary, Academy award-winning actor, and I listed several of his movies, and she still had no idea. She had no idea about his auto racing or his Newman's Own line of products. The phrase "Paul Newman blue eyes" was lost on her.

I asked her if she knew who Robert Redford is. Nope. Never heard of him.

Then I said that if People Magazine had had a "Sexiest Man Alive" cover in 1970, it would have been Paul Newman or Robert Redford. She answered that she wasn't born until 1979.

18. Erica Eleniak, Antonio Sabato, Jr

Eleniak, Former Playboy playmate and Baywatch Babe. I saw her on some Grade D Sci-Fi channel movie and she looked awful.

Sabato was a former male model (I think) who got into acting. I also saw him in a Grade D type movie where he looked like he had really hit the wall.

Maybe she saw herself on that Sci-Fi movie and hired a personal trainer?

Another one I saw that had "hit the wall" was Richard Grieco. Or, maybe it's just that the Sci-Fi channel makes people look bad?

53. Right. And she doesn't plaster on blue eyeshadow.

Elizabeth Taylor is still, in my eyes at least, very pretty. However, she really slathers on the Cleopatra makeup and wears glittery frocks. That's not flattering at all.

38. Rachel Ward

I remembered her when I was clicking through channels and came across a rerun of "The Thorn Birds" mini-series that ran some time ago. I thought "Wow! She's a babe!" That series ran a long time ago and one could simply say that time leaves nobody behind. I then saw her again and was shocked, she was frighteningly thin, and looked very frail and drawn almost as if she was sick.

60. Well, Johnny Cash is a bit of an exception. Before he died, and especially

in the video for "Hurt" he looks like an old, embittered Indian chief. I know he was part Cherokee, and it really showed in the video. Not a good look, necessarily, but very striking.
