Beautiful, famous women that you think are overrated (not necessarily 'ugly', just overrated in your opinion)

When I was a kid I thought Farrah Fawcett was overrated. But how very, very, very wrong I was. I like Amy Adams; but I like redheads. I like Mary Tyler Moore in the 70's. I also like Reece Witherspoon. I don't care for Drew Barrymore lookswise.

Yeah, I used to think she was cute. Now I want to slam the door in her face because of those unending GD commericals.
That's the thing about her. She was never all that "hot" but she definitely had the "cute" thing down pat. Very nice voice, very nice smile, sort of the girl next door vibe. That's how I always saw her.
 
Sofia Vergara. I know dudes that think she’s drop dead gorgeous. I don’t see it at all.
I really liked her character in Modern Family. That's where her attractiveness came from for me. I know nothing about her outside of that show. But the character's mispronunciations and use of comedy made her attractive in the role.

Which is ironic. Because on the show, her stepson-in-law always seemed to have a crush on her and he was married to Julie Bowen. And if anyone says she is overrated, I question their sexuality. LOL
 
Rachel McAdams
This one is a tough one for me. She's another where it's sometimes difficult to separate the characters from the actors. Her character in "Game Night" was gorgeous. Her character in several other films were very pretty. But if you google image search her, she's just kinda ehh. Maybe I'm just too personality driven when it comes to attractiveness. :)

I'm really trying to think of someone I think is overrated because I'm not trying to hijack the thread. I have just found that as I have gotten older, my definition of beauty has grown a bit. There are many different types of beauty.

I have one. Not sure if she was ever considered hot or beautiful but she was definitely all the rage when I was younger. Elvira. She was not attractive to me at all. Nancy Benoit (Woman in WCW) RIP. Not attractive either.

Just don't see it in these ladies. Some of them I listed are still pretty but a few are flatter than a 2x4.
 
I always thought Cindy Williams was cute. Penny Marshall, not so much. She was funny though. I recently watched Autumn in New York with Wynona Rider. I forgot how pretty she was.

Good list. Several in there I should have included. Biel is an excellent choice - terrific body, horse face. Don't get it. Keira is about 25 lbs too light. Anne Hathaway is someone you'd walk past on the street and never do a double take.

Not that there's anything wrong with it, but half this thread is gender fluid or something because you guys are listing some smoking hot women. WTH is Jessica Biel doing anywhere near this thread?

Jennifer Anniston. While she was hot, I always thought Lisa Kudrow was the hottest one on Friends. Tall, pretty, long blond hair, a very nice body with curves in just the right places. And Courtney Cox back then should never have been considered hot. Flat chested and just too skinny overall.

Never in a million years. They don't make that much bourbon.

I used to think Lilly on the ATT commercials was cute-ish, but she's gotten to be such a cartoon character, and her company sucks, I no long think so.

Cox was my favorite. Because of the face, just the prettiest of the 3. But yeah, a bit too skinny.
Anniston, is wow for her age now. And was good then. But there is something about her that is slightly off-putting, I think it is her upper lip (nose to mouth area) is too big. Not that me or anyone else on this board would turn her down. But if you have to nitpik something to separate them.

Interesting historical factoid. After Isabella's death, Ferdinand quickly re-married Germaine of Foix. Who was apparently a real looker. Ferdinand was in his 50s when he married the young Germaine and notoriously was always up for bedding her.

She outlasted 2 other husbands.

You must have low standards in women then. I know everyone has different tastes but she doesn’t even get a second look from me and many other guys I know. I do agree with you on Paltrow especially as she has gotten older.
