Well the thing about her is that, while I'm sure there are worse looking women out there, she's the one staring in tv shows and commercials where she's portrayed as exceptionally fabulous and beautiful.
Not to be mean, but I think this award is a good thing, because after being portrayed as the gorgeous woman that every man desires, maybe she'll realize that most men don't find her attractive.

people actually find her attractive??

Ugh, no, shes dirty! Thank god she got that wart removed off her face, whenever she appeard on screen my eyes were always drawn to that beast.

I agree. How old is she anyways, 45, 50?

Haha, what a beast. I can't possibly imagine people actually finding her attractive. What a horse face.

You know, I hate it when guys put down a females looks rather harshly when he's not so good looking himself >_>.

She's not THAT bad looking, she's just not glamorously pretty. I say she has that average, middle-age, natural woman look, kind of like Jennifer Anniston but to me Sarah looks abit worn out compared to Jen =/.

no actually, she really is THAT bad looking.

Comparing SJP to Jennifer Aniston? Jen is leagues above SJP, and will be even in 20 years.

Well I'm sure those guys all had tv shows and million dollar shampoo commercial contracts because of their beauty and that supposedly a lot of people find them attractive enough to buy the products, so they had it coming.

Get over it, she is THAT bad looking.



It is funny that women generally defend Sarah Jessica Parker and think she looks pretty. To me, this only means one thing, they watch Sex and the Blegh.

...

I just looked her up.

No, she isn't that ugly. Where do you people live? Do you hang out with supermodels all day or something? I can find 100 more ugly women in a fifteen minute stroll through NYC, or, hell, any major city in the world. If you think she's that ugly, dear god.




Even before the nose job, she's not ugly enough to say "unsexiest". Yes, she isn't that attractive, but damn, you people are harsh. Betcha she gets laid more than you anyway.

yes money and "fame" will do that, does not matter what she looks like.

Someone missed the point of the topic.

Maybe. Actors and actresses that are prettier than their roles portray those roles. What's the difference if someone does this the other way, if they managed to do well on their audition? The commercials come with being on a show that was aimed at women, and having her in advertisements for women's products is the same reason why we have Bruce Campbell in Old Spice commercials, even if the execution is completely different.

Either way, I wasn't even talking for the most part about Maxim's choice, but rather the harshness everyone on this forum has toward a woman because of her looks.

LOL. she looks like a ##### marionette. If you chopped off those invisible strings holding her up, she would collapse under the weight of her own giraffe-neck.

I always thought that she was very unattractive, and people always used to say- "Oh, no, she's so pretty!". How could anyone with a horse face be pretty?

Yeah, she is so pretty. /sarcasm

im trying to figure out what that is

I think we discovered the first physical evidence of life in outer space.

In the world of gorgeous celebrities she's definitely not appealing.

In my little world of fat, ugly, religious midwesterners, she's doable.

Looks like age has began to take its toll on her.

The two posts quoted above are the only ones I can actually respect in this topic.
Yeah shes not the most amazing looking woman out there but she is definately not the most unsexiest. Yeah I know a magazine said this stuff so OMG IT MUST BE $%^$%& TRUE!

I actually think she is decent looking, but god
No wonder there are people that starve themselves, have such low self-esteem, hate themselves, etc, with people acting like all of you have.

Seriously, this topic just makes me sad and angry.
And no I do NOT watch the sex in the city BS so I am not defending her because of that. I am defending her because she is way better looking than a bunch of chicks out there.

Forget Maxim, the posters in the forum are worse. By Far. Go grow up. Grrr...

Clear skin, slim bod, nice smile, GORGEOUS eyes... What the heck is everyone ranting about? And even if she didn't have those features, there are still other things that can make a woman sexy. I don't think there was any need for Maxim magazine to do that at all. It was a pretty pathetic move in my opinion. God forbid if someone (even famous) doesn't have a perfectly shaped face =/

What is wrong with her, exactly?

I think she has a very ugly face. It simply doesn't appeal to me at all. Oh, I consider the face to be the most important quality on a female body, as that is the part you generally look at mostly. Thus, my choice is easily made.


Sorry for having an opinion. It is not like none of you ever considered someone ugly.
No, because that would mean you'd be a hypocrite for complaining about a bunch of guys disliking someone else you personally like.

An opinion is fine. A hurtful opinion is fine too. But a PUBLIC hurtful opinion, that the whole world including her family and friends can see is a just a wee bit different.

It's a little thing called respect that I thought Maxim lacked, I couldn't care less who you guys think is unattractive/attractive, I get made fun of because I find Duff McKagan attractive I just don't agree with the harshness and picking at her I guess because I think she looks fine, seriously.

I didn't say anything about her looks. She is however getting older. About 43. She looks great for her age. However she does not look great to the general population that are used to seeing hot chicks with said description she has mentioned in the beginning post quote. Mainstream is law apparently.

I hate her, she is fugly. I thought this was a general consensus.

I think most people who expressed that they found her unattractive weren't referring to her body, so with all due respect, I don't see how that is connected to starving yourself.


Probably. But not that many who get million dollar endorsement contracts to sell products with their face.


Well if she can handle getting praised by countess womens magazines for how great she looks, and get million dollar contracts to sell products with her face because of all this, then maybe she should be able to handle hearing the opposite opinion for once. Although some people are a bit harsh, or brutally honest.

She gets payed millions to sell various products, and it's not because of her acting skills. It's because of other women who want to be like her, "the woman that every man in NYC wants". And if that opinion is generally untrue, isn't it only right that it's heard? I don't mind her as a person. But I do sort of mind her getting millions of dollars for supposedly being irresistible to men, when it seems that most men find her quite the opposite.
It's like Homer Simpson getting payed to be a nuclear technician. And he is.

The award is pretty harsh, but it might be hard to get the point across otherwise. And honestly, she may very well be the least attractive A list celebrity to me. I'm not going to pick on her for that. But to get million dollar contracts for supposeldy being something that she isn't, I can't say my heart goes out to her if she doesn't get another huge paycheck to sell shampoo.

Point taken. Point agreed with. I just wish more posts were more like this instead of "HAR HAR horseface!"

I think she looks fine, don't see what's so un-attractive about her that she shouldn't do commercials and be ridiculed by a bunch of guys who aren't that pretty looking themselves. And it's not like I want to see Eva Longoria (or how you spell her name) everywhere. Or one of those supposedly beautiful girls in the Bored Members topics. >.>

Maybe I'll rephrase that last part.
I don't mind her doing more commercials. It's just about the reason she is being payed for these things. If much of the reason she gets those lucrative deals is because she represents an ideal woman that so many men supposedly want, and women want to emulate, then I think it's only fair that those who pay her are aware of the fact that it might just be the opposite when you ask men, before they make their decisions. If they still think she's perfect for the commercials, even though most men may find her unattractive, then great for her.

So if she's being proclaimed as being someone so many men desire according to womens magazines, then I think it's only fair to hear from the men directly instead of womens magazines claiming that she is. Or is it better that womens magazines keep painting her up as irresistible to men, and that the mens can't express their own opinions on it? It's not a nice award, that's for sure. But maybe they shouldn't portray her as someone so many men desire, if they don't?

I wouldn't mind mens magazines claiming I'm the most attractive guy to women, and that every woman in NY wants to sleep with me, and get millions for it, etc. But if women then express their own opinion on it, it's not like it's unfair.

Yeah, it's certainly not a nice award. (I'm not sure if Maxim were rude about it though)
But at the same time I think it's only fair to hear from the men directly if it is in fact untrue. If she can stand hearing that she's so desirable, and get millions for it, then I guess she should be able to take hearing the opposite as well.

@ Seluna, i dont care for you being so harsh about the men on this board and calling them ugly, thats just rude and i dont like it... blah blah


to me she is ugly, like pes i go on face but even more so i go by hair and neither look good on her. Plus, a big reason i think she is ugly abyss is because she does starve herself, that is gross, she looks like 2 pencils stuck together.

You know, I generally believe that the women on this board, who are defending her, generally thought that she was actually a desired woman.
That the men, in general, found her attractive and that the "irresistible to men in NYC" was a fact, maybe even wanted to be like her.
This is because of Sex and the Blegh and all those women magazines portraying her as "fabulous" and whatnot.

Now that they get the opposite of the story and the somewhat harsh reality, all their hopes have been shattered. Oh noes, Sarah Jessica Parker ISN'T attractive!? =O

Besides, why is Maxim suddenly in the black books for being rude? Stop being so bloody hypocritical. If any, the women magazines and all their gossips and lies are ten time worse than ONLY ONE single UNSEXIEST top 5 where Sarah Jessica Parker was the winner. If anyone is being immature, it is the women that can't accept this.

Besides, if we're being truly honest, Maxim is generally a stereotypical men's magazine and thus I am confused why women even care.

Just so you know, I'm not into women's magazine and whose on what damn commercials, except if I see the same person everywhere that it drives me crazy. I wasn't even sure which face I'm supposed to be seeing in my mind when you said Sarah Jessica Parker to me, and I sure as hell didn't watch the Sex in the City #####. I am pissed off with the narrow-minded views that we as females are defending her because we like her look and like that movie and saying that Maxim is ##### for insulting her. ##### it, I don't freaking care what some stupid women or men magazine thinks. I don't ##### care what award 70% of the population gives her. I care that I think she's still looks FINE and that I SHOULDN'T BE FREAKING JUDGED AS A BIMBO WITHOUT BRAINS FOR THINKING SHE'S NOT THE UGLIEST THING ON THE GOD FREAKING PLANET.

I didn't say guys here are ugly, just that you're probably not as good, or even better looking than her, and yet saying it like she looks worse than a pock-marked lame midget with a missing nose and swollen eyes. That's what I'm bitching about.

Athrun, I get what you're saying, though I don't care enough about the entertainment industry to be interested in who thinks who is sexiest or not and making money off of it or not making money. *shrug*

i hadent thought about that one, thanks

but in all honesty, its all a matter of opinion, yes some opinions may be more harsh than others but oh well.

To me and a good majority of the guys on the board, she is no attractive at all. I know what makes a lady attractive to me and she does not posses those qualites. Now she may be a really nice girl and thats great, but to me she is not good looking.

Perhaps if we had our own millions and make up stylists we could do. Oh wait, she has her own stylists and she still looks bad. That is even worse.

I don't think she's the standard of beauty anywhere (except for maybe one or two guys or girls who like that sort of thing). But her character is supposed to be on that show. I remember I saw Sam Waterson advertising an attorney on TV. He's not a lawyer. His character is on Law and Order. People have come to recognize him as a lawyer because of a TV show, and this is why he was chosen to advertise.

Likewise, this woman got a similar deal, except that her character is supposed to be beautiful, and the actress really isn't. Who knows? Maybe she does have a ton of acting talent, and it simply goes to waste when she's marked as a one trick pony by casting directors. The same types of people who typecasted Bella Lagosi to be Dracula all the time when he had so much training in acting.

Yes. She shouldn't be paid millions to advertise shampoo. That doesn't mean she shouldn't advertise shampoo, and that doesn't mean that the only thing people have to say on this forum is "LOL i always thought she was ugly." I know some people that watch Sex and the City, and while I haven't spoken to them on the subject, I'm sure they've come to like her character, and it's really not her, but her character that ends up selling this shampoo, as this is the way advertising works these days.



"Oh yeah! Check out these ratings for Law and Order. You're an attorney at law, right? Let's see if we can get McCoy from that show to sell this to the public."

"Alright, so, remember how everyone thought Terminator 2 was awesome? Let's use clips from that to advertise Direct TV!"

"You know how Sex and the City is so popular these days? Well, how about we use one of the actresses from the show, which clearly has garnered so much appeal from women, to sell your shampoo for women?"


Should she not agree to this simply because someone thinks she's ugly? She probably thinks she's pretty, and good, more power to her, if only we all were so lucky to have that much self esteem. Yes, advertising agents just love bandwagons, but get an actress from a popular TV show to advertise the product, and you end up with a ton of product placement in the TV show. It's cause and effect. For example, we all know Bruce Campbell advertises Old Spice, and there's at least one occasion in Burn Notice where one of the characters notes how all his bullet proofs vests reak of it.

The point is:

If a homely girl manages to get on a show where she has to play a sex symbol, and the show gets popular, she will be in commercials for all sorts of feminine hygiene products, it benefits everyone involved. The girl gets rewarded for being a good enough actress for having the casting director look past the homeliness to realize they're actually not so bad. Those guys can be #######.

If that article had been titled "World's Unsexiest Women in American Show Business" then I doubt it'd make such a fuss, since I really can't name anyone that much uglier that isn't like 68 and no one really likes them outside of recent widows.

The world's unsexiest woman looks closer to this:

I can totally understand your thinking that she's not as good looking as so many are saying, and I'm more than fine with it. It's your opinion, and you're not insulting my or any other person's intelligence with that. I don't think that she's very extremely attractive like goddess or something either. She's looks alright for me, just like any other celebrity.

Some other opinions... or should I say prejudice, in this topic, is making it like any females thinking that she's not bad looking are simpering fools with peanuts for brains for thinking that. I hate that. I just think that she looks passable, and I suddenly become a fangirl of her and the stupid movie that I supposedly watched but actually didn't? I'm not sorry for being offended or over-sensitive at all.

I am surprised you get offended, because there was none made. I made the mag comment, as it is true. In mags she is portrayed as "simply fabulous" and so she is in the tv series. Whether you watch/read the items is completely irrelevant, as she is considered by many women as "simply fabulous".
I simply made a general statement in my last post.

And I am saying it is bad to believe that she is "irresistible to all men in NYC", as she is casted and portrayed as someone fabulously gorgeous. If you actually believe any of this, then yes, you're a bit behind.

Besides, for some reason you find it necessary to talk about our looks, whereas I fail to see the link. Since when does one have to be prettier than someone else to find a person unattractive. Really, since when? Secondly, why does one's looks matter if said topic isn't about the person in the first place.
Is it a universal rule that only extremely pretty people can judge ugly people? Really, talk about being narrow minded.

To men, in general, she doesn't look FINE and that's it. No reason to get over-emotional about it, because it is just an opinion. No matter how rude, or harsh it is, it is all an opinion.

Huh, and you have no idea why I'm offended huh? How about because I don't see her as "simply fabulous", don't particularly view her as a very desired woman, and yet I'm viewed as an immature hypocritical fangirl just because I defended her by saying she's not quite that ugly? Now I remember why I said narrow-minded. So I and every other female on this forum, or this ##### world, MUST see her as "simply fabulous" and fit into your nice perfect world where we are fangirls and hypocrites because we care when a stupid men's magazine says the equally stupid women's magazines are wrong, huh?

Why I talked about your looks? Because some of you are saying it like she's the ugliest thing that ever existed, and yet you may not look even as good as her. Wouldn't that make you even uglier than her? I'm not saying that only good looking people are allowed to judge others, I'm saying that before you say somebody else looks like the ugliest thing ever, at least look into the mirror and see if you're insulting yourself as well.

I said in general, Sel. If I wanted to say that all women all over the world felt the exact same thing, I would have said so. I, however, did not, as I know women that actually feel the same way as men, in general, do.
You're the one that took the comment to heart and felt offended by it, whereas this was not my intention.
So sorry for unintentionally offending you.

And my looks, or anyone else are completely irrelevant to it and I don't understand why you bring it up, again.
If I say that I find her ridiculously unattractive, how do my looks come into play here? Really? I am curious.
See, you might think I am the most ridiculous thing you have ever seen, but is that what it is about? No, it is not. It is about my thoughts on Sarah Jessica Parker. You talk as if someone's looks are universal to everyone else. That, if you find someone else ugly, everyone else feels the same. So yeah, stop talking about our looks, because they are irrelevant, whether we look good, or not.

On that note, she gets paid to do all the "I look pretty" thing, whereas we average guys don't boast around about our looks. Whether you care about any of this is not the point. The point here is, that she is portrayed as what Hiku and me said and that is generally what people believe she is. It is only good for her to see that it isn't the case at all.
However, her reply left the impression she actually didn't and think that only fake boobs and botox will make you look pretty at that age.

And just to correct you, she is ugly to ME <--- See, opinion.

I think this is being blown way out of proportion. There is uglier women out there and she's not one of them o_o. We(men) all have different tastes, but damn.

You kind of directed the defending her comment at me and the others who posted saying that she is not that bad. What was I supposed to think? >.>

In any case, since you are clear now that there are people who don't find her amazingly attractive or amazingly unattractive, I don't have much to say now, since I don't really care who's making money off her image or not.

Sel, I never said anything about anyone who has an opinion of her, whether good or bad, so I hope your comment wasn't directed at me? If you think she looks good then I respect that. I just don't think it's unfair that some mens magazine has labeled her as attractive, any more than the many womens magazines labeling her as attractive. And I got into the commercial talk because of a previous comment, regarding how she makes much of her living off her looks.


I think it goes without saying that this is about A list celebrities. For anyone to think that they can judge who the most unattractive woman in the world is, they are either stupid or have seen every woman on the planet. One or the other.


Well I wouldn't know if anyone claimed that the other side were wrong, since I haven't read the article. I'm guessing that the guys only speak for themselves, and the women for themselves, so it's not right to say that anyone else is wrong. Just that they have different opinions.


I guess it's a matter of opinion. Someone may find another person very attractive, while another may find them unattractive. If I say that I find Sarah Jessica Parker unattractive, does that say something about my looks? That according to those who think she's fabulous, I would automatically be below her, and by saying I find her unattractive, it would mean I'm saying worse about myself?
Maybe. And maybe there's no such thing as an absolute, and it's all in the eyes of the beholder. In that case, even though I may find her unattractive, I might honestly think of myself or some people in my surroundings as better looking. And some may disagree.

I think one reason people express themselves about this is that their opinions are so strong, that it's hard to understand what someone else who thinks differently sees, and vice versa. I think that may also be why some people express themselves so harshly, because they don't understand, and want to get their point across.

I don't mean any disrespect to her or anyone who thinks otherwise, but personally I find her pretty unattractive. Does that automatically say something worse about myself, or even the girls on this forum? Maybe to some, but to me it doesn't. For example, Seluna, I don't know how to put this in numbers, but I think you are 10.. 20.. 50 times more attractive than her?

So don't get offended if I say that I find Sarah Jessica Parker to be unattractive. It doesn't automatically say anything about someone else. Only about her. At least not to me.

Of course she's ****fabulousssss**** <:D

If you're girl into fashion and clothing (which would pretty much rule out 70% of the forum), Sarah Jessica Parker is a dream come true. *__* A poor girl who rises to the top by getting on a hit show like Sex & The City, WHILE getting to keep all the clothes she wears on set. I envy that woman. ): /wants moar clothes

But anyways, I do think this issue is getting blown out of proportion. Her image is all based on a matter of opinion. I would hardly call her the ugliest around, but she's not attractive either. But who knows, some people have found her attractive, and obviously she's doing something right with her relationships since she's married to....that...one guy.....Ferris Bueller.... yeah.

If anything, I think she's cute. But you really have to watch the TV show to appreciate that with her little quirks and mannerisms, and she has a very hip chic new york style about her that I'm sure guys couldn't really appreciate either. P;

Jesus, why don't you guys just write a ##### thesis ?

She's not that damn pretty. Her face is too shriveled and lanky, and she's a borderline-case anorexic. She's probably what Nicole 'Bitchy' will look like going into her middle years -- that is if she doesn't drown in a coke-powdered toilet bowl first.

And you don't need to be attractive to appreciate beauty in others -- inside or out. SJP might be a wonderful woman on the inside (I hear the DO exist .. I guess), but that doesn't change the fact that her face belongs to a gorilla in the Congo.

I am stupid, and I have seen all the women in the world. Prove that I haven't. It's an and/or.

I don't think she's totally desirable or undesirable. Because she's desired but some, but not desired by others, just like every other woman in this world.





I was never even aware of that 'fact', let alone approve of it.





My hopes are fine and dandy I hate womens magazines even more so then mens magazines, so I don't know how I could be hypocritical. I just honestly think it's uncalled for, yeah it provided a bit of an entertaining read I suppose but what else was it good for? It's not going to change anything. I'm guessing she's getting paid so much because she's doing a good job of selling the products by being the face of them.

I also don't see how I'm being immature by refusing to laugh at her 'wart', 'giraffe neck' or 'horse-face'. I can accept that she's not attractive to everyone, very easily But I do think she looks quite pretty <---- My opinion.

Just used Pes' quotes to make sure I didn't fit into his general belief of the women on this board.

I knew I wasn't the only one who felt that 'certain' comments were being directed at us. >.>

Nope, my comments largely are not directed at you, Hiku. What I mean by how her looks is relative to others is because while she may not be the most attractive looking person out there, she's still better looking than many. Not saying that anything is absolute, but it's more of a majority thinking thing. Like say I stand beside her and ten people were to vote whose prettier, obviously she gets all their votes. She IS a celebrity and in movies for a reason, after all. So by saying that she's so very very very ugly, it sort of automatically downgrades anyone that gets 0 votes from the above scenario. In a 'how is it possible that you will be better looking than a 'horseface' CELEBRITY' way.

>.< It makes sense to me, does it to you? I often don't make very much sense, I'm told.
