Are there any genuinely cool famous people today?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: December 10th, 2025 3:26 PM Author: Yummy Phase Pol Pot Had this talk with a friend recently. We agreed that there are way fewer genuinely cool (famous) people today than in years past. Here's a short list of people we thought might actually qualify:
--Hunter Biden: does whatever he wants, effectively operated as an international criminal making millions, did hard drugs and got his fuck on with reckless abandon. Speaks completely freely.
--Ohtani: largely because of the mystique afforded to him by never speaking English and being the potential GOAT of his profession.
--Trump: more so when he first ran in 2016.
We talked about some F1 guys, but then you think about someone like Senna and LJL with these young guys. Give me Bernie Ecclestone over any of the drivers (even if he is 95.)
I guess you could argue for someone like DiCaprio, but I don't see it anymore. Almost every famous person turns out lame when they start opining on social issues. Hard to name anyone with a true devil may care approach to life today. Everyone is too busy managing their "brand." Gay.
Also: no women. Women aren't cool.
Am I missing anyone? |

Date: December 10th, 2025 3:33 PM Author: Yummy Phase Pol Pot Was reading this old thread and it made me think of this. Our world is sterile and gay. Even the people who speak their mind are often not cool for one reason or another.

Date: December 10th, 2025 3:39 PM Author: merry screenmas it's insanely sterile and gay and worse of all it's all fake and manufactured - the gen z "celebs" right now are all botting fake audience views, and content clipping extremely gay scenes to go viral on social algos.

Date: December 10th, 2025 3:43 PM Author: Yummy Phase Pol Pot The sheer amount of 6 - 30 second low effort "humor" clips being pumped out by these freaks is depressing.
It is possible that the overexposed world we live in more or less killed off the cool famous person. I thought maybe someone like Gossling because there is some mystique. Helps that he doesn't do social media bullshit. |

Date: December 10th, 2025 3:41 PM Author: Yummy Phase Pol Pot Morrissey is a potential one. Never liked his music, but he has no problem saying whatever the fuck he wants. Though I dunno too much else about him. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5808769&forum_id=2,#49500033) |

Date: December 10th, 2025 3:37 PM Author: michael doodikoff Joe Rogan is cool IMO
matthew mcconaughey has a "cool" vibe and comes off well in interviews, but I wonder if he is annoying and weird as shit in private (I would think that Leo Dicaprio would be the same)
Can't really think of any famous people that I would really want to hang out with because they are "cool" |
|
Date: December 10th, 2025 3:47 PM Author: Yummy Phase Pol Pot Agree on McConaughey. Best move he ever made was not running for TX Governor. Would've been ruinous.
There are people who aren't shit, per say, maybe Austin Butler or Glen Powell. Even someone like Miles Teller...but no one who really fits the bill in Hollywood under the age of 60 at this point. |

Date: December 10th, 2025 3:57 PM Author: Yummy Phase Pol Pot Unironically might add Pewdiepie to the list. Obviously his "name" is retarded, but the guy checks a lot of boxes. Especially considering that he blew up his Disney deal the way he did (before it even got out of the crib) and walked away from the rat face on his own terms. He could've easily "pivoted" to try and compete with a freak like Mr. Beast. Though maybe not actually "cool" in any traditional sense.
Feels a bit like qualifying as "cool" requires a combo of: not giving a fuck what anyone thinks; total comfort in one's own skin; handsome looks (or just being good with women with minimal effort); some element of mystery (to let your brain fill in the gaps.) I don't think money really matters and is probably detrimental to being cool if it becomes someone's core driving purpose.
Increasingly rare among high profile people. |

Date: December 10th, 2025 4:16 PM Author: Yummy Phase Pol Pot Almost put Scott Bessent on the list. Obviously being gay seems disqualifying. But otherwise the guy seems like something of a loose cannon in a good way (physically fighting people, threatening violence, vaguely looks like a gay Bond villain.)

If we're going with fictional characters then the list may as well just begin and end with Big Boss. |
