    Argue about the definition of cool if you like. Dictionary defines it as ‘fashionable and attractive,’ but I’m not sure that’s entirely correct. ‘Cool’ for me isn’t just about clothes, it’s an attitude. Can you be ugly and cool? 😄 Can you be over 50 and cool? Can you scrape in the cool line if you’re ugly and unfashionable but are funny or musical? Anyway here’s two to get ya started. Submit your choices for discussion. 🙌

    Is Jonny Depp really still cool? He kind of peaked just at/after the first Pirates of the Caribbean film, but then the whole divorce thing came along…

    George Clooney though… Seems to still be cool, maybe Brad Pitt as well although both were kind of at their peak at the first Oceans.. film and Clooney lost a few points when he sold his Lake Como house. But then he gained several by marrying a human rights lawyer and directing some good films.

    Then pissed all that away when he did the Warburtons and Nespresso ads

    I think bonus cool points for the Warburton ads, shows he can laugh at himself.

    Not sure I can agree with Totah and Fripp after it seemed to drift into exhibitionism.

    Lael Wilcox is a good shout, Jenny Tough and Lee Craigee as well. Or maybe I’m mistaking cool with trail blazing.

    They were never cool, just fabricated popstars in 20 years time they will be famous for being famous and their music forgotten.

    Dictionary defines it as ‘fashionable and attractive,’

    Hmm, in my opinion cool is not synonymous with either fashion or attractiveness (if that means good looking – whatever that is).

    Cool is style not fashion.

    Keith Richards is still alive, is he still cool?
