Are there some celebrities that make you wonder ..... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

how did he/she become so famous? He/She has no talent at all! My own personal choice has got to be Denise Richards. There's no doubt that she's a very attractive woman, but she has got to be the most wooden actress I have ever seen.

Drew Carey. Sure he seems like a nice guy and I like him on Whose Line but I dunno how hes getting 750,000 dollars per episode for the Drew Carey Show His stand up is not very funny, plus he's a very crappy actor.

I'd have to say I wonder about most actors today.. I think America in particular is too preoccupied with appearance. Think about it.. on every current popular tv show at least more than have of the cast is very attractive. If you don't believe me, spend a while watching some britcoms and try telling me you don't see a difference.

A lot. Especially people who can't sing but get contracts because they're related to so-an-so. I don't care if they're related to Tony Blair... some of them stink.

Yoko Ono is a no-talent to me but a celebrity nonetheless. What put her on the map was her marriage to music genius John Lennon.

I agree with you 100%. Sex appeal sells; talent doesn't. There are still exceptions though. There are some very beautiful people who I also find very talented. Goran Visjnic from ER is one.

Yeah there are exceptions.. but there's an overwhelming amount of actors who are nothing but pretty.

I totally agree. There are some actors and actresses who are sort of average looking such as Drew Carey just for an example. Have you ever noticed in films that there is always a beautiful girl with an ugly guy, but you never see a gorgeous guy with an ugly girl? Like, in As Good As It Gets, Helen Hunt and Jack Nicholson?!?

I definetely think that appearance is the main factor in show business.

Most people in the music biz today. I sing better in the shower.

Tons of actors- for the reasons Lacey stated.

Oh, here's someone I can't stand- Kirstie Alley.

You should try and record yourself and market it. Maybe it'll go platinum like mine did.

Or people who act and then they go into singing and vice-versa. You're good in one thing, don't try to ruin it by doing another. A few people come in mind, like Hillary Duff, Brittney Spears, JLo, etc.
