Who gives hats a bad name?

Is there any man in the public eye that you wish would stop wearing hats?
Not because hats make him look like a dork, but because he makes the rest of us look like dorks?

I think there are two categories here: bad guys who wear hats, and guys who look stupid in hats or wear stupid hats.

For me, Charlie Sheen doesn't fit into either camp. I think he looks pretty good and I'm a fan of his non-conformist attitude (tiger blood).

Sheen doesnt make me look bad because he is simply a whacko. He has nothing to do with me. He may be a non-conformist, but he's on a road to self-destruction, afaic.

I can support non-conformism, but not the mentaly deficient variety. He needs lots of help, but he obviouslly won't get it. Sad, really as he's a talented individual.

While these two may not be at the top of the role model list, at least they are wearing hats. That's a plus. Some people call fedoras gangster hats so I guess there is some reputation polishing to do?

There is a difference between a non-conformist, and a drug addict with mental and/or emotional problems.

A fine line, to be sure...

I've never seen the attraction of this guy. To me, he looks ridiculous.

(Normally, I would not go this far in condemning someone or something. But when you are in the public eye, you open yourself up to criticism. Its part of the game. And what does my opinion really mean in the overall grand scheme of things, anyway . . .)
