Is Rod Stewart good looking?

He has that je ne sais quoi, I think he oozes charisma and seems to be a genuinely nice guy.
I love his songs, always have ?

No and my impression is he isn’t a particularly nice man

Sings a good ballad though

No, he never was and never will be but he can bash out a good song so that's good enough for me.

No he's not and never was good looking. Now he's just a sad, old man who is scared of being old.

I used to be crazy about him but it may have been more form his choice of songs. I'm glad to hear that he's a nice bloke; I always had a suspicion that he was rather full of himself (goes with the job I suppose).

Maggie Mae, Waltzing Matilda, and so many more lovely songs. I think "Every beat of my heart" should be the national anthem. It makes me well up every time I hear it. In fact, I'm getting a bit emotional even thinking about it. Probably expat blues.

Seagull carry me, over land and sea
To my own folk, that's where I want to be
Every beat of my heart
Tears me further apart
I'm lost and alone in the dark
I'm going home

And we'll drink a toast
To the blood red rose
Cheer a while the Emerald Isle
And to the northern lights
And the swirling pipes
How they make a grown man cry

I don’t think he’s sad, he’s always looks full of the joys of spring to be fair! Nothing wrong in trying to hang on to your youth if it makes you happy. Better that than the pipe and slippers, surely?

No,the voice of someone with acute bronchitis and I agree with my sister “I wouldn’t pick him up on a shovel”?

However he has a wonderful train set!

No no no

Id rather spend an hour with Rod than some others mentioned above eg Bryan Ferry or Ronnie Wood.

Never seen him looking sad, in fact quite the opposite. I'm assuming you mean that his clothes indicate he's 'scared of being old' but he has always been a flamboyant dresser so why should that change now?

Great charisma/stage presence/sex appeal, good hair but a big nose - as noted already, probably wouldn't look at him twice in the street.... but amazing songs over the years.

I wouldn't say he's ever been good-looking, but he's had a certain sex appeal. Other men who have had the same appeal without being handsome:

Mick Jagger
Errol Brown (Hot Chocolate)
Joe Cocker

I would add Freddie Mercury to that list, along with Ray Davies, Roger Daltry and David Bowie. There are many more too.

No, he’s not, and never has been, good looking.

But he was in the right place at the right time with his songs, his music, his gravelly voice, his confidence.

His history with all his girlfriends and wives make him seem very sexy, and one can imagine he was fun to be in bed with! Whether say Britt Ekland agrees with that I don’t know, as he seemed to discard his women as and when, with the exception of Rachel Hunter, who I think dumped him. That must have been a massive blow to his ego.

I think now he looks rather like a little old man in his trendy clothes, still with spiky hair, with Penny Lancaster towering over him.

“Do ya think I’m sexy?”

Not anymore really, but you were.

No, definitely not good looking and never thought he was sexy, whereas Elvis ......... !!!!!

Always loved his songs , but definitely not good looking to me, I do like him though

Obviously a lot of the above named had their fame & wealth to get lots of women ( although surprised to see David Bowie in the list as he was very good looking I thought? ) but even ordinary men who aren’t blessed with good looks can have ‘sex appeal’ & get lots of partners.
Not so sure it works with women as we’re judged so much more on our looks alone. ( sadly )

I liked him once when he fronted The Faces. Friends and I lost almost a day of our life queuing for tickets right around the block in Finsbury Park at what was once The Rainbow Theatre. Then, coupled with a gravelly voice, he was Rod the Mod, trademark hair and flamboyant style yes he had a sex appeal but that's long gone, he was never conventionally good looking. Nevertheless he certainly had a stage presence and did sing some great songs. As he's aged I just see a granddad's face still wearing what he might have pranced about the stage in then, except he seems to have grown smaller somewhat, I can't put my finger on whether the unchanging hair emphasises his shrunken stature. I think he looks like one of the Chuckle Brothers now. I thought the late David Bowie aged better looks wise and when I saw him interviewed he was actually a good raconteur, as is Keith Richard, who probably hasn't aged well but nevertheless comes across as very likeable in a self deprecating, almost humble way. Rod Stewart has a full of himself demeanour or did when I last saw him interviewed. Penny Lancaster has on occasions over shared, Unfortunate! " eer no one cares Penny about the sex life of you and your septuagenarian" With that in mind I do my best to avoid him these days if he's on anything.

Love his voice and songs but he was never remotely good looking in my book. Bryan Ferry and David Essex have been mentioned - now you’re talking!

Not what most people mean by good looking, but has charisma and boyish charm, so would say he is attractive

Same here, Callistemon, probably at The Marquee Club in London, back in the day!

I agree TerriBull about Keith Richard.

I watched those recent documentaries about The Rolling Stones, and thought how articulate, normal, quite humble and likeable they all seemed.

Meatloaf is another, wonderful voice and delivery, mesmerising when seen live, yet not considered ‘good looking’. Who cares when he and Steinman can craft such enduring classic albums!

Sparklefizz - ah, yes, Elvis… The first film, Love Me Tender in bw, was a milestone of my teen years!

Not handsome but bucketfuls of charisma which can be more attractive than classic good looks I think. He’s certainly stood the test of time. All round nice bloke.
