25 Male Celebrities Who Are Past Their Expiration Dates

Male Celebs Past Expiration Date

It was probably their intention, but when I saw Spike.com’s list of the Top 10 Actresses Past Their Expiration Date, I couldn’t muster up much rage. Sexism, alive and well on crappy men’s websites. YAWN. Their list included everyone from Julia Roberts and Drew Barrymore (the most egregious inclusion in my opinion, as the chick is on a f**king roll) to Sarah Jessica Parker and Teri Hatcher and seems to be based entirely on looks. Whatever, schlubs. I decided to go for an immature rebuttal to their silly little list—male celebrities who are past their expiration dates are easy to come by. So easy, my fellow Frisky gals and I found 25. Suck it, fellas! (Our girls at Lemondrop had the same idea—check out their list here.)

With the exception of Hatcher, Kidman and Diaz, I have never liked any of those actresses listed.  Drew Berrymore’s last good flick was E.T.

Wow that’s a whole lot of fail. Also Gary Busey is a walking un-funny reanimate corpse, just like Weekend at Bernies.

Also, I agree with your list except for Jack; he gets a pass for “The Shining”

Gary Busey should get a pass for headbutting a brick wall while on his motorcycle.

Aaawww, ladies, really?  I’m sorry to see y’all stoop to the objectifying level set by those unenlghtened Neanderthals over at Spike.  What a shame, involving guys who had nothing to do with the stupid list.

LOL good list, although many of the people on the list are not movie stars like one the Spike list, it’s more of people of men who should go and sit down somewhere so we don;t have to see them on the big (or little) screen anymore.

could not DISAGREE more. Seriously, Russel Crowe? He even looked smokin hot IN THE ACTUAL ‘over the expiration date photo’ you posted!!

Also disagreeing on Jeremy Piven and Vince Vaughn, who are both still working (a lot) and looking right for their ages!!

This seemed like reaching to me. What exactly is the criteria for being ‘expired’?

John Travolta may be old, but he’s been married for a long time and has a family. It’s not like he’s hitting on girls half his age or starring in a lot of May-December rom-coms these days.

Erm, Russell Crowe must have been included here by accident. While the Spike list of actresses pisses me off largely (mainly because of Julia Roberts—it’s hard to disagree with Nicole Kidman and Renee Zellweger being included), this one is a bit like “quick, name all male actors above the age of 35”.

As I clicked through I kept waiting to see Brad Pitt. Now yes, he still is getting jobs - and great jobs as of late, but have you seen him when he isn’t onscreen?!? No appeal (for me anyway) offscreen anymore.. I believe he has turned the corner past his ‘still good’ years…

keep Russell Crowe- he has serious anger management issues and acting like a child detracts from any real or perceived hotness and he doesn’t have the talent to make you forget about it. take Mario Lopez off the list. Unless I am mistaken, Mario has always treated his career as a joke, he knows it is a joke and is therefore “in” on the joke. If however I found out he was trying to have a serious career I woul reconsider.

And what’s with all the Brad Pitt hate? I still think he’s a good actor, he just needs to get rid of that bitchy vampire that’s always hanging on his arm.

OMG, I can’t believe everyone is still into Russell Crow! Really? He looks pretty horrid as of late, sorry. And I have to disagree with adding Brad Pitt, that man is still hot! And I kinda agree with maybe Vince Vaughn not being on the list, he was super hot in Swingers, probably all the way until Wedding Crashers…hmm why wasn’t Owen Wilson on this list? He could probably replace Vince V.

just something quick to get off my chest on the men’s list of actresses past their expiration date, whatever the F*** that even means: WHY do people love to call Drew Barrymore “chubby”? I’m not saying she has never been bigger than the average actress. Maybe there have been times when chubby could POSSIBLY have applied. But those times are in the past- girlfriend is a stick figure lately! She had a breast reduction and then she lost a chunk of weight and now she’s skinny and flat chested and in NO WAY chubby. That’s just inaccurate reporting. Anyway, kudos to the evolved ladies of thefrisky for NOT getting pissed. Hopefully someday I, too can yawn in the face of stupidity like this. Sigh.

Now onto the men’s list: WORD UP to Jude Law. And it’s funny you should include Spencer Pratt on this list, because I’m pretty sure that’s the target audience for that list of actresses. Maybe I can yawn in the face of those idiots after all- just picture them all as Spencer and I immediately get bored. grin

Agree with most of the list but have to admit to not knowing who Edward Furlong is.

I used to think Vince Vaughn was good looking, but he looks kind of bloaty and puffy eyed lately.

Excluding Tom Criuse(Mission Impossible Rocked) Mario Lopez(He was the host of Planet’s Funniest Animals) Spencer Pratt (who is a brat but still semi-cute) and Gary Busie who( is Hilarious and is a comedian so he is never outdated)and Donald Trump who is richer than most of us will ever be I agree with the author, but I have to say WHY did she respond to a countdown on SPIKETV; it should’ve been a countdown from the E channel..

I sort of like “Two and a Half Men,” when I’m looking for cheap laughs.  It’s not high art, but it’s certainly no worse than most of the other shows out there.  Yeah, Charlie Sheen is gross, and yeah, he’s pretty much playing himself, but it works in that context.

Personally, I think you forgot Robin “My Ego Is Bigger Than This Movie” Williams and David Caruso.  I cannot, for the life of me, understand why David Caruso still has a show.  He was NEVER good-looking and he can’t act.  He has one move: Tilt head, squint eyes, speak in husky baritone.  That’s all.  He’s the worst one-note actor I’ve ever seen.

I think our society gives these Hollywood types too much credit. They are just people with over inflated egos. I agree with most of the men. What really makes them look aged is the fact that they think being with women 30 years younger them makes them “the man.” I laugh at them to be honest. The women MAY love them but I think they actually love the money and the access to the lifestyle and amenities that come with the territory. I would prefer a man closer to my age over some old guy trying to recapture his youth through me. It gets a bit ridiculous! Of course these guys go under the knife to take some of the years away to attract the young ladies. Kenny Rogers and Burt Reynolds know how well that can go. They weren’t on the list…or were they? I may not have recognized them… raspberry

Since looks aren’t an issue with women as much as they are with men, this list doesn’t really apply. Men are judged by their social status, not their looks. So if you were talking about male attractiveness, you’d have to reference their careers and success which generally improve over time, whereas women are judged by their looks because men are visual. So a woman’s value decreases over time.

tsnow,

The fact of the matter is women get better with age IF they take care of themselves and don’t become bitter. I know several bitter women in their 40’s and 50’s and they show it in their face. I also many happy women of the same ages who are content with who they are. THEY put the younger women to shame with their knowledge and experience.They also look much younger than their years naturally. Age is but a number but bitterness is just a bad attitude that’s worn on the face…

To all the men out there who think they look dashing with some young babe on your arm I have to let you know that you look like idiots!!! I have had many good laughs over you and I am sure that the woman on your arm keeps saying over and over in her head while you’re in your Viagra haze doing your thing, “He’s got money, he’s got a Lamborghini, he’s going to marry me, he’s going to have a stroke and die soon!”

The ultimate past his prime actor… Woddy Allen. He shagged a girl he helped to raise as an authority figure. His movies all have the same plot, geeky loser (always played by himself) gets the young, beautiful, girl (Scarlet Johansen, Diane Keaton, etc.) He has not had an original thought in at least 30 years. Who still watches his movies? Who still pays their $10 to see this crud in theaters?

@Ivory: I could agree more with that one. I’ve NEVEr seen the appeal of Woody Allan.

Although I did just watch 9 1/2 Weeks, and can now officially see the appeal of Mickey Rourke.
