Be still my beating heart. ... I must say, if I had to choose between him and George Clooney, the beautiful George would not get a look-in.

Ah, he's kinda funny lookin'

He is funny-looking, yes, and this has meant he's usually cast as the weirdo, but there's something about him I find attractive.

Everyone i know who's seen him in person says he's strikingly handsome.
He's known for his suave good looks in real life.

he's weird looking by hollywood standards but then hollywood doesn't know what weird looking really is. seen any french films lately? now that is weird looking (of course the french do glamour better than hollywood too)

I've had the hots for him since I was in high school.

Yup, I also always have found him inexplicably attractive.

I read an article once that quoted the Ghost World director's wife as telling him something like "Steve Buscemi's the only guy in Hollywood you'll ever have to worry about leaving me alone in a room with."

Oddly enough, I actually once heard the same thing about this guy during his heyday.

Whatever a heyday is. Weird word.

I think he is much more handsome than he usually looks on screen. And seems like a very cool guy, too - I love that John Waters sent out xmas cards with Steve's picture on them one year.

EJ, please don't kill me, but I once had the chance to meet Steve Buscemi in real life. Only for a few minutes, and I'm sure he wouldn't remember who the heck I am, but he definitely didn't look sickly. And he was very nice, and surprisingly normal. By which I mean, human. You know, you always expect celebrities to turn out to be evil villains or fantastic superheroes or something. But then it turns out they're just people.

Except for Tom Cruise. There, my friend, is an evil villain/alien from outerspace.

Just as I was reading this post, a television annoucer said loudly "GEORGE CLOONEY". Hee!

And oh yes, I'd definitely like to flirt with Mr Buscemi over some cocktails.

So, um... that was him in the Simpsons on Sunday, yes?
I was all "oh baby, I'll visit you in prison any day" and my roommate was all "this is why all your relationships fail."
