Coming in at:
#20
M. Night Shyamalan
Having gained instant fame and popularity with his 1999 debut, "The Sixth Sense" writer/director/actor/all-around-disappoint-er has been trying desperately to recapture that certain something that made his first film a box office smash. He has failed.
I'm not sure what's scarier; the fact that he continues to make appearances in his films ala Alfred Hitchcock, or the fact that somehow the studios continue to back his films
#19
Tommy Lee
What???? Tommy Lee CREEPY???? There have been a lot of adjectives thrown around about the Motley Crue drummer (talented, partier, gifted in the nethers), but creepy is a new one for me. I disagree with him being on the list, but apparently 31% of people find him a bit on the icky side.
#18
Tom Green
(I didn't know that Tom Green was relevant anymore...)
In January of 1999 MTV delivered a new brand of "entertainment" known as "The Tom Green Show."
It wasn't funny.
The network realized this and cancelled the show... but Tom wasn't finished making a fool out of himself, yet; he "married" Drew Barrymore, penned "The Bum Bum Song," and made a one-hour television extravaganza featuring his (very graphic) testicular cancer surgery.
I'm not afraid of much, people, but I wouldn't want to meet him in a dark ally... or a LIT ally.
#17
Gene Simmons
I totally disagree with this one.
Is it still 1974?
His name is Eugene for crying outside! How creepy is Eugene?
#16
Woody Allen
If it weren't for the Soon-Yi Previn affair, Woody Allen wouldn't be on this list. Although she is the adopted daughter or Mia Farrow and her ex-husband, Andre Previn, Farrow and Allen had been dating long enough for Soon-Yi to be HIS child.
:(
#15
David Blaine
Illusionist and street magician, David Blaine, first freaked out television viewers in 1997 with his special, "David Blaine: Street Magic."
Critics were raving: "Blaine can lay claim to his own brand of wizardry!"
In 1999 he was buried alive.
Blaine was raving (humbly): "I saw something very prophetic ... a vision of every race, every religion, every age group banding together, and that made all this worthwhile."
In 2000 he was frozen in a giant block of ice... and survived.
So I suppose it's official; David Blaine is a demon, and because demons are creepy, Blaine should be higher on this list, but we'll let it slide.
#14
Keith Richards
After all of the self-abuse Richards' body has endured it's a little creepy that he's still alive.
#13
Don Imus
Don Imus, or "Cap'n Mumbles," comes in at number thirteen because listening to him on the air sounds like an uncomfortable conversation you accidentally had with that creepy old man you met at the nursing home when you went to visit your Grammy-Gram. You know the conversation; disjointed, disconnected, teetering on the brink of death and he's bringing you with him.
Imus IS creepy.
#12
Carrot Top
Don't be fooled, my friends. Carrot Top is no longer that scrawny, freckled, crazy-haired darling who shows up with a box of magic and laughter.
He looks like THIS now... yes that's make-up...
#11
Courtney Love
The only woman to make the list, Love gained fame by fronting the grunge band "Hole," and gained infamy for her many public appearances while under the influence. As seen in this photo, Ms. Love is stunning when she's in her right mind, but most of the time she's a train wreck.
#10
Paul Reubens
The man that gave us Pee Wee Herman is NOT creepy. Whatever he did in a theater all those years ago is HISTORY!
Of all the people on this list, he's the LEAST of the creepies.
I think you'd be surprised to find that Reubens has been very busy for the past few years:
#9
Flavor Flav
I don't know who is creepier... Flavor Flav or the hundreds of women that are willing to throw themselves at him.
I think he's half retarded.
#8
Criss Angel
Magician. Illusionist. Musician. Escapologist. Stunt performer.
Not creepy. Why, you ask? Because he looks and acts like every guitarist/lead vocalist in a band that's "gonna make it." That's not creepy!
What do you call a musician without a girlfriend?
Homeless.
#7
Ozzy Osbourne
Maybe in the Black Sabbath days, I would agree with Ozzy being on this list; dark lyrics with religious undertones, heavy, driving guitar.
It's been a long while since he bit the head off of that dove, people. He has a family now...
#6
Andy Dick
Jim Rutledge, a co-worker of mine, had this to say: "I don't know if I find him creepy. I find him unfunny." That about sums up Andy Dick. When Andy Dick is playing a character in a movie, he CAN be funny - not all the time, he has his moments, but there's something down-right gross about him.
#5
Howard Stern
Some people love him. Some people hate him. Most people love to hate him... that's what has made Howard Stern so successful. He doesn't cross the line, he burns it, urinates on it, has two female porn stars make out next to it, and then he has a midget do a jig.
The man can conduct amazing interviews.
That sums up Howard Stern, but creepy? Meh...
#4
Stephen King
A picture is worth a thousand words...
#3
O.J. Simpson
I've seen handsome men before, but this guy's a lady killer!
(I'll be here all night! The ten o'clock show is different than the eight o'clock show... try the veal and tip your waitresses.)
#2
Michael Jackson
From "Off the Wall" to "Dangerous," Michael Jackson was the king of pop... after 1993, however, he's taken on the new throne as the king of Verminophobia, odd adult/child sleep-overs, and John Hughes style reclusive behavior.
Do NOT go trick-or-treating at this man's house... ranch... freak show tent, whatever.
#1
Marilyn Manson
After all these years he is still managing to inject a little fear in to the hearts of many... 76% of people, to be exact.
I never understood why.
His name is Brian, he wears trick contacts that you can purchase at many Halloween stores, and he wears VERY pale foundation. When you think about it, he's like a high-maintenance girlfriend.
Here's what he looks like without all the fuss...
...oooooooh... totally normal.
He does get a swift kick in the pants, though, for cheating on his beautiful wife, Dita Von Teese...
...with (then 19 year-old) Evan Rachel Wood....
And there you have it! The list of the top 20 creepiest celebrities, compliments of e-Poll.
Who DIDN'T make this list, but should have (in my humble opinion):
Crispin Glover
Gary "You-Can-See-An-Elephant-In-360-Different-Ways" Busey
Gary "You-Can-See-An-Elephant-In-360-Different-Ways" Busey
Jackie Earle Haley
John Malcovich
Josh Brolin (based on his character choices)
Nick Nolte
Tilda Swinton (she's an alien)
