The most overrated.......


beauty/sex symbol of ALL time. RIP

reply

No, that would be Freddie Prinze, Jr.

reply

You're entitled to your opinion. I don't think many people consider Freddie a sex symbol, maybe a teen heart throb at one point, and if some do consider him a sex symbol Farrah's status as such was magnitudes greater. I mean she virtually owned the 70's.

reply

She was more popular than he, but her physical attributes were MUCH closer to warranting the attention she received than were the feckless nebbish Prinze’s “charms.” His claim to fame was a dead daddy.

And I’m entitled to any goddam thing that I want to have, you arrogant little cum stain.

reply

My opinion is her physical attributes didn't warrant the admiration she received for them. Body was average, face was average. It takes more than blonde hair and blue eyes. Jaclyn Smith was far more attractive. Prinze's popularity wasn't significant enough for him to be overrated.

reply

The fact that he got any attention at all and married Buffy makes the dickless wonder overrated. The guy is doing fucking dishwasher ads, for fuck’s sake.

Consider changing your inaccurate and arrogant screen name.

reply

Consider eating a bag of dicks. My IQ and academic credentials say otherwise.😉

It's laughable that you're saying that Freddie is a sex/beauty symbol.😂

reply

"Body was average, face was average."

What?! She was beautiful.

It's hard for me to argue that considering when I was a kid in the 90s a lot of girls in my class were into Jonathan Taylor Thomas and by the time I was a teenager in the early 2000s most everyone every girl I knew were going on about how good looking Leonardo DiCaprio was. Honestly, the only thing I have seen Freddy Prince Jr. in is the crappy Scooby Doo movie where Scrappy Doo is the bad guy. I would argue Leonardo DiCaprio is way more a sex symbol than Freddie Prince Jr. But then again, a lot of girls will go on about how good looking any male celebrity is. Also I feel the TC's topic is pointless considering a lot of people on here (including myself) are too young to have grown up on Farrah Fawcett.

reply

Your arrogance is pointless. The audacity to even say that stupid shit is baffling.

reply

Wow really? Have you seen her in "The Burning Bed" and "Extremities"? If not I highly recommend you watch them :)

Take care!

reply

Both are great films. Don't get me wrong, she had sex appeal. I just don't understand the magnitude of the hype. But hey, just an opinion.

reply

Her swimsuit poster is iconic. There are women who have the right bone structure and appear gorgeous when made up but Farrah was naturally beautiful and had a genuine smile that warmed hearts.

Check her out on The Dating Game

Of course you're right about her poster, which is kinda my point. Compared to the likes of Betty Page and Marilyn Monroe, just to name a few, she falls far short IMO.

reply

That still doesn't make her overrated, it just means you like Betty and Marilyn more. I never understood the fascination with Marilyn Monroe until I watched her movies. In still photos she's pretty but nothing special but in motion her charisma and sexuality come alive.

reply

To each his own. I'd like to see a poll ranking the top generally accepted female sex symbols and see where she ranks.

That list put a cartoon character above Farrah Fawcett! Have that list removed! 🤔

reply

Was expecting Jessica Rabbit and would have defended her inclusion, but Betty Boop?!?

reply

Betty Grable

reply

That was hilarious. Wonder if they went to Austria skiing together lol

reply

Not the most overrated, but still definitely overrated.

reply

What's all this "overrated" nonsense?

Farrah was beautiful. She had a unique face and a radiant smile. That poster was breathtaking. That is why Tony Manero had it in his room in Saturday Night Fever.

Some posters on this board need to see an optometrist.

Or post the board of a male actor if you are homosexual.

Fans- do you love Farrah? Here-
