A friend of mine back in the 80's used to comment on how ugly Ric Ocasik is of The Cars in all of that band's videos that used to air on MTV. I often wondered who you feel are your choice for ugly or non attractive musicians in the music culture of yesterday and today.
I would have to go with Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics, as I feel the way he does not comb his hair, his awful attire, and his face is not so attractive in any way. Plus his long fingernails do not help either to make him so repulsive looking.
Others that I find as well are as following:
Joe Walsh
Joe Jackson
Lead Singer of Flock of Seagulls
Keith Richards
Michael Jackson
David Byrne
What icons in music culture do you think are too ugly or need some sort of makeover in your opinion.
lolwut
Iggy Azalea. Don't like her music (not a rap fan in gneral), and don't think she's even remotely attractive. I only even know who she is because of a girl I was seeing earlier this year. Obviously, it didn't work out.
I'd vote for Tom Petty, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards to start off with. Throw in Alice Cooper and Iggy Pop as well. :-o

When people say that Iggy is attractive, they aren't talking about her face. Look at the other side of her.
Lady Gaga.
I don't think Iggy Azalea is ugly, but I have seen better-looking women.

I feel that way about Lady Gaga.
I hate to call anybody ugly, as all are beautiful in the eye of the admirer, but I'm going to be honest here, and these are the faults of these people themselves for completely messing themselves up. Michael Jackson was a great person and a great musician with lasting music, But what he did wth all that surgery was not helping at all. MJ was a good-looking young man back in the day, but after he got all that plastic surgery, he literally looked like one of those ventrilicast dummies (not to be mean). But I also really can't stand what Miley Cyrus had done to herself. She used to be a pretty young woman with a bright future, but she decided to "grow up" and turn into..yeek..yeah.

I've read it as both "mechanics who you think are ugly" and "moderators who you think are ugly" this morning. I think I need some coffee.
There's a reason some dudes pick up an axe or a microphone that has nothing to do with artistic integrity. And you can't blame them one single bit.
I've heard Tony Bennett described as, "A face made for radio."
99% of musicians are ugly, but Gene Simmons is ugly regardless of whether he has his makeup on or not.
Anytime I hear or see the name Miley Cyrus, I feel like I'm gonna catch a disease.
Just in case this one has not been mentioned, Dee Snyder of Twisted Sister, especially with the makeup on.
Iggy Pop looks surprisingly normal and handsome when that's the look he's going for.

How can you not love Mike Score's hair? He was a hairdresser before a musician, lol

He makes my heart ache and break.
http://www.cinemablend.com/television/Terrence-Howard-Rules-Hip-Hop-Family-Fox-Empire-Trailer-64018.html (http://www.cinemablend.com/television/Terrence-Howard-Rules-Hip-Hop-Family-Fox-Empire-Trailer-64018.html) Fox is supposed to release Empire in 2015
It follows the "House of Cards" narrative but this time its on the recording industry. I don't see this lasting on Fox I think Fox should have made this show an FX show or a Hulu Only show or as a joint venture with Netflix. Its supposed to attract a Netflix crowd though.
Well this could confirm why you think Musicians are ugly.
ABC did their own version of the recording industry Nashville it took on the same narrative that Empire is supposed to take.

I saw that at least once, too.
Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees.
Flavor Flav! How can anyone forget him?
Myles Kennedy. Looks like he's constipated in half the photos I've seen of him. :D
Does anyone remember Shabba Ranks?
Nobody's mentioned Geddy Lee yet.
Ian Frazier Kilmister of Motorhead:

When Roger Waters was young he was both ugly and attractive at the same time.
