Washington, D.C. (November 17, 2007) -- The High-Definition TV picture is so clear that viewers can see Hollywood's biggest stars as they look in real-life.

Which can be a real eye-opener for the viewer.

Some celebrities who are named to 'Most Beautiful People' lists actually don't look very good in High-Definition.

Unable to hide behind fuzzy cameras and trick lighting, the stars' facial imperfections, aging signs and, sometimes, excessive plastic surgery, can be easily detected by the unforgiving lens of high-def.

However, stars who are naturally beautiful look even better in high-def.

With that in mind, Phillip Swann, president of TVPredictions.com, has just named his 4th annual "Best & Worst-Looking Celebrities in HDTV!"

And who's number seven on the Worst List?


Comedian Bill Maher!

Here's what Swanni has to say about how Billy looks in high-def:

"The star of HBO’s Real Time With Bill Maher looks terrible in high-def. His pasty, Albino-like features makes the Pillsbury Doughboy look like he has a tan," Swanni says.
