BOSTON, Massachusetts (Reuters) -- Comedian Gilbert Gottfried, the voice of the Aflac duck in television commercials for the insurer, was crowned "unsexiest man in the world" by an alternative newspaper Tuesday.

"The parrot-voiced, pickle-faced comic is to sexy what Kryptonite is to Superman," The Boston Phoenix wrote.

New York Yankees pitcher Randy Johnson came in second followed by film critic Roger Ebert, television psychologist Dr. Phil McGraw and Fox television co-host Alan Colmes.

Even actor Brad Pitt made the list, as the newspaper's 100th-least sexy man.

Osama bin Laden clocked in at number eight.

George Steinbrenner, owner of the Yankees -- arch-rivals to the Boston Red Sox -- also made the list.

"Come on, we live in Boston, you knew it was coming," the Phoenix said.

Others included pop star Michael Jackson and nasal-voiced rapper Mike Diamond (Mike D) of the Beastie Boys.

Gottfried has had numerous television and film roles, including a year as a cast member on NBC's "Saturday Night Live.

Yeah right, most of the bitchy overweight women in this country would be lucky to get a man like Gottfried.

I can't believe Eugene Levy wasn't number one...or at least #2. he's the worst.

Yeah, but he likes black women anyway. Or at least his character did. So you've got no shot with him.

How about Steve Buschemi....or he just scary looking..

I'm with Moltar on this one.

Another would be Pat Sajak. That dude has a big f@#kin' head!

I want to see that list. WPBharry had better be on it!

Woohoo! I'm not on it!

Brad Pitt is on the list?

Good. I can't stand him.

The media packages and force feeds us so many celebrities. Brad Pitt is one of them. The litmus test: would anybody pay any attention to him if he were walking through a shopping mall? Probably not. I told my cousins in Italy he looks more like a gas station jockey than a serious actor.

Equal time for the women we are force fed -- Julia Roberts? Paid enough to fund the operations of all the public housing in Atlanta on an annual basis (she comes from one of its suburbs)...that's what we should make her do with all the money she earns. She reminds me of a chick who would have gone to a public high school on the West Side of L.A., smoking cigarettes with her other vapid friends outside of an ice skating rink, waiting outside to go to Bob's Big Boy and smoke some more (that's like a Denny's).

Another one is Tom Cruise. He looks like he's frozen in immediate post-pubescence. How am I to take him seriously as a slick law grad in "The Firm" or as a doctor in "Eyes Wide Shut?" He's a joke as well. Is he on the list?

Brad pitt made the list cause he they said he smells like B O all the time.

He's funny in a Ben Stein kind of way, my vote for unsexiest man

of the century goes to Ron Jeremy. Ewww!
