computerdude Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Just out of curiostiy, what famous people of today (music artists, actors/actresses) does anyone know of that actually wear eyeglasse? I know it sounds pesamistic, but it truly seems like there are hardly any that do. I'm aware of those who did in the 50's and 60's, but I'm wondering about people of today. Or if they've all been able to get contacts or corrective surgery. I suppose my reason for complaint is that I have to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toddvj Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 There are tons of celebs that wear glasses. Yes, a lot of them probably also wear contacts. I don't really get your sig??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Dee Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 yeh, but all the REALLY cool famous people don't wear them. They only wear cool sunglasses. Old fashioned glasses are just for geeks and nerds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Richard Gere, Tina Fey, Drew Carey all wear glasses. They're all pretty cool. (Well, Drew's cool in a geeky way.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mas Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 yeh, but all the REALLY cool famous people don't wear them. They only wear cool sunglasses. Old fashioned glasses are just for geeks and nerds. If only! The irony is that many buy them and wear them without Rx lenses as fashion statements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
computerdude Posted May 31, 2007 Author Share Posted May 31, 2007 Yeah, I spose they're cool people, in a sense. I dont understand the ones that wear them w/o a perscription. That doesn't make sense to me. I was just wondering because it seems like, stereotypically, they're considered a "geek symbol" or something like that, so it's almost as if celebs. choose not to wear them for that reason. The only other famous people I see with them are the wrinkled old hags we have for politicians, and they probably wear them to look sophisticated. So I guess it's a two way street [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coytee Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 I'm 47 years old and just couple months ago, went to opthamolagist (client of mine). Not had my eyes checked for probably 35 years and had an issue focusing on something... Yep... time for some 1 diopter reading glasses, $3.00 or so at Walmart (made in China of course [:@] ) So... has my 47 years of looking cool come to an end or has my remaining years of looking sophisticated just started?
