We're here to share our own ugly truth: We really don't see the appeal of Gerard Butler.

We saw the supposed stud up close and personal at The Ugly Truth premiere last week, and we still don't see what everyone's drooling over. Sure, he's no longer the slab of granite he was in 300, but we're not always all about the muscles. We like a good, racy personality, too. (R.Pattz, anybody?) And Gerry ain't thrilling us with his.

"This is never f--king ending!" Butler exclaimed on the carpet, exasperated with all the press questions about romance and dating (particularly with Jen Aniston). Sorry, Ger, you're the male lead in a romantic comedy, whaddya expect everyone to ask you about? Health care reform?

And too bad for him, 'cause we had our own romance-angled Q's for the alleged heartthrob:

What's a big no-no on a first date?
I hate these questions. I'm suddenly becoming some Dr. Ruth on relationships.

Um, great, well here's one more. What's your favorite pickup line?
"Hello." Sorry, I hate these questions. I don't have pickup lines. I go straight into deep, profound conversations. And if I was to tell you, then it wouldn't be a pickup line anymore 'cause you would know it. I'll keep that one secret.

That ain't what we heard! (Our own stargazing sources from months ago told us not only is Butler the type to use pickup lines, he uses bad ones!)

Who is this guy, Shia LaBeouf? Neither of them have any luck with the ladies.

Maybe Ger's put his act together since then? Or maybe he caught on that girls don't fall for those lame-ass lines, even when spoken with a Scottish accent? Let's hope so!
