Here's a lighter topic.

Spurred by watching a retro Sounds of the 70s on BBC4 while awaiting my home grown veggies to finish roasting, is that sort of day, here's my starter:

John Denver. He of Annie's Song and that. Seems he was born in Roswell New Mexico, figures, one helluva looker, not.

So, anyone beat him in the non-looker stakes?

    Posh Spice thing. You know the one. The girl Beckham.

    Or Adele. Nothing like a gobby fat bird to put you off your Eccles cake.

    Any number of large, hairy heavy metallers (the technical name for which is a Kerrang Utan).

    Amy Winehouse after she'd destroyed herself.

    Lemmy.

    Can't believe nobody's gone for Mick Jagger yet. No make up, and he's always been pretty ugly, not just as he's aged...

    Is that an acceptance you were wrong or evidence you think she's always been ugly? I'm not into her music but googling her to my eyes she looks good.

    She's aged better than Jagger, it msut be said. However, given that he is about to become a dad again then their must be something attractive about the multi-millionaire Mick Jagger* that us mere mortals don't possess.

    Hmm, not sure about that but she had a great voice.

    Tried the got older but lost their looks approach on You tube.
    But F@ck me - Sharleen Spiteri at 49 sans make up still has it:

    Demis Roussos and the fat bird from Mama's and Papa's. Neither were things of beauty but they more than made up for that when they sang :-)

    Tbf, when he was alive, Lemmy was the first to point out what an ugly bastard he was. Seems like this is heading towards picking older persons, so wtf is it with them when they get their teeth fixed? Keith Richards with the straightening and whitening looks a fright.

    Sounds of the 80's with Sara Cox, once a month on the red button you get to see how a pop star has aged since the 80's. Paul Young and Duran Duran not looking great, but all the members of Spandau Ballet would still get a spot a teenage girls wall.
  • Lol. Aged Patti looks nice.

    I vote post-surgery Michael Jackson.
