History Main / ButterFace

* VideoGame/AtomicHeart has the titular new fan favorite {{Fembot}} twins whom, much like the nuns from VideoGame/SilentHill seen above; lack a face entirely and can easily be on the UncannyValley, but. They more than make it up to it, with shapely figures that looks like Soviet {{Playboy}} {{Sexbot}} models, heck… their trailer scene literally has ''[[BrotherSisterIncest sexual connotations]]'' to it. Though that last part can be seen as '''''[[BrainBleach quite disturbing for some]]'''''

* An example used in both the song and the video for [[Music/IceCube "Gangsta Nation"]]: "I don't holler at these hoes that sing like Music/{{Ashanti}}, body like Music/{{Beyonce}};, face like [[Wrestling/AndreTheGiant Andre]]!"

* An example used in both the song and the video for [[Music/IceCube "Gangsta Nation"]]: "I don't holler at these hoes that sing like a chantay, body like Beyoncé, face like [[Wrestling/AndreTheGiant Andre]]!"

* Celty from ''LightNovel/{{Durarara}}'' is a variation: Her problem isn't that her face is ugly, but that [[HeadlessHorseman she doesn't have one]]. Or rather, she did, but it's never been ''attached''. Her head does, in fact, have a pretty face, but given that it's in a jar instead of on her body...

* ''Manga/OnePiece''

* ''LightNovel/Overlord2012'': Albedo's sister Nigredo has a voluptuous body similar to hers, but her face has no skin, meaning it just have exposed muscle, her eyes, and teeth.

* ''Series/ArrestedDevelopment'': Season 4 introduces DeBrie Bardeaux, who not only has a rather worn face (from the years of drug problems), but at one point is even referred to as a butter face. Granted, it was because [[VisualPun her face was covered in butter]] at the time, but this show rather likes puns.
* ''Series/TheTwilightZone1959'': A complete inversion of this trope occurs in the episode "The Eye of the Beholder" (aka "The Private World of Darkness"). The main character's face — [[BandagedFace bandaged until the reveal at the end]] — is [[BeautifulAllAlong just as beautiful]] as her body... but to the standards of all other characters — who have hideous faces — ''she'' is the one with the butter face.
* Inverted the in the ''Series/NightGallery'' episode "The Different ones", also written by Twighlight Zone creator Rod Serling. A severely disfigured teenager is sent as Earth's representative on a cultural exchange with a newly contacted alien planet with the theory that he'll be treated better there because they won't know the difference. During the transfer he meets their representative, a conventionally handsome youth who interacts with the protagonist as thought he were the butterface. The planet's inhabitants are later revealed to look just like him, in fact he's considered "gorgeous" by local standards.
* On ''Series/{{Reno911}}'', Deputy Trudy Wiegel is said to have a decent body but she's still a triple-bagger (a bag for you, a bag for her, and a bag for anyone unfortunate enough to be watching).
* On ''Series/CurbYourEnthusiasm'', this turns out to be the case with a woman who was wearing a full burqa and veil on her date with Larry's blind friend...who dumps her as soon as he finds out she's ugly.

--->'''David Doyle expy:''' Yes, they're here, Archie... and they're looking as lovely as ever.
--->{Slow pan across the three girls' incredibly homely male faces, one of them even smoking a cigar.)
* In one ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine'' episode, one of Quark's customers requests a holobrothel session with [[KissMeImVirtual a duplicate of Major Kira]]. Kira and Odo find out about it, and hack the program so that the client is greeted with an image of Kira's body topped off by Quark's head.
* Creator/PattyMaloney as the [[https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/File:Little_Woman.jpg little woman]] in the ''Series/StarTrekVoyager'' episode "The Thaw".
* The title character of the ''Series/MastersOfHorror'' episode "Jenifer" is this. Possibly to the point of [[ExaggeratedTrope exaggeration]], in that her face looks downright monstrous while still having a model's body.

* ''Series/{{Supernatural}}''. Dean travels back in time to TheWildWest, and is looking forward to getting on with the saloon girls, unfortunately they're a bit too homely for his taste. Another girl flounces down the staircase, only when we see her face she's not only homely but has skin blemishes hinting at certain social diseases. Dean is bending backwards over the bar as she tries to smooch him, when fortunately a man who'd already booked her interrupts.

* The Creator/CS188 WebAnimation/YouTubePoop [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bS1g8Ruw9qw "Pooping the Charts Vol. 7 - Why Can't I Think Of A Title"]] does this with Music/JustinBieber. Literally for about a second.

* In ''Judge Bao and the Jade Phoenix'', there's a prostitute named "Two Moons", for [[GagBoobs reasons that prove themselves quite obvious]], and a very impressive figure. She also always goes around wearing a hat with a veil that hides her face. Considering the title of this trope, it should be obvious why.

* VideoGame/AtomicHeart has the titular new fan favorite {{Fembot}} twins whom, much like the nuns from VideoGame/SilentHill2, lack a face entirely and can be on the top levels of UncannyValley, but they more than make it up to it with shapely figures that looks like Soviet Playboy models, heck… their trailer scene literally has ''[[BrotherSisterIncest sexual connotations]]'' to it. Though that last part can be seen as '''[[BrainBleach quite disturbing for some]]'''

* Perilously close to the TroperNamer is Music/TheMonks (who, amazingly were most of Music/TheStrawbs!) CultClassic, "Nice Legs, Shame about Her Face",
* Many who have watched Music/{{Queen}}'s video for "I Want to Break Free" have admitted that, facial hair aside, Freddie Mercury makes a pretty hot chick. Then there's the drummer, Roger Taylor, who borders on UncannyValley.

Suppose you see a gorgeous woman walking down the street. [[MaleGaze Your eyes pan up]] the long, luscious legs, those beautiful hips [[SexyWalk swaying oh so nicely]], that slim waist, and of course, [[BuxomBeautyStandard those bazooms]]... ''[[{{Pun}} butter face]]'', [[{{Gonk}} somethin' ain't right about 'er face...]]

The term for a man with a good body but ugly face is a Shrimp Guy, because you want to remove the head before eating. https://l.smartnews.com/qXVZe/5J2fh5

* Sister Germany in ''Webcomic/ScandinaviaAndTheWorld''. She has one of the most buxom figures among the female cast, but the author describes her face as not very pretty. She even has a moustache!

--> Sandor Clegane is a male example. His face is a burned mess, but Sansa Stark and some female servants at the Red Keep have noted his strong, well-build body.

* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXd6u9o6dYY Keep it Goin' Louder]]" by Music/MajorLazer features a bunch of mostly plus-sized scantily clad women dancing, complete with slow-motion [[ShakingTheRump twerking]] and {{gainaxing}}. It would be titillating if not for the fact that most of them look like... well, [[https://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/11112/111129932/3283496-girls.jpg this]].

** Princess Vespa herself was an example before undergoing ''major'' rhinoplasty. The Spaceballs {{blackmail}} her father the king by threatening to undo it, and he cracks almost instantly. And judging by [[BigNo by her response]], she wasn't [[http://movieclips.com/yC9st-spaceballs-movie-giving-up-the-combination/ any bigger of a fan of going back]] either!

* 1940s film star Martha Raye was often this. She had a great body and a terrific singing voice, but was often the "butter face" sight gag in films like 1941's
''Film/{{Hellzapoppin}}'' due to her disproportionately large mouth.

* In''Film/{{Splice}}'', UncannyValleyGirl Dren is described as a "butterlegs".

** Another Avery ''Droopy'' cartoon, ''The Chump Champ'', has the Queen of Sports, who looks shapely from the neck down, but is a [[FunnyAnimal literal dog]] from the neck up.

** Another Avery ''WesternAnimation/Droopy'' cartoon, ''The Chump Champ'', has the Queen of Sports, who looks shapely from the neck down, but is a [[FunnyAnimal literal dog]] from the neck up.

** In another Woody Woodpecker short, '' Buster's Last Stand '', an Indian tries to grab Woody's scalp to get the hand of the Indian Chief's daughter, in the end, after getting it, the father gradually shows his daughter with a curtain at the end, an ugly face appears.
** Another Avery "Droopy" cartoon, ''The Chump Champ'', has the Queen of Sports, who looks shapely from the neck down, but is a [[FunnyAnimal literal dog]] from the neck up.

* In the ''WesternAnimation/TexAveryMGMCartoons'' short ''Big Heel-Watha'', the chief's daughter is one of these...but turns out to be [[WesternAnimation/RedHotRidingHood Red]] wearing an ugly mask.

Suppose you see a gorgeous woman walking down the street. [[MaleGaze Your eyes pan up]] the [[ShesGotLegs long, luscious legs]], those beautiful hips [[SexyWalk swaying oh so nicely]], that slim waist, and of course, [[BuxomIsBetter those bazooms]]... ''[[{{Pun}} butter face]]'', [[{{Gonk}} somethin' ain't right about 'er face...]]

* Music/NeonIndian's "Fallout" video is about a woman with [[ShesGotLegs long, sculpted legs]], flowing pink hair, and gigantic breasts [[MaleGaze which the camera keeps focusing on.]] The mechanics in the video fall madly in love with her, and give her car a full tuneup. Then, at the very end, she takes off the sunglasses she'd been wearing up to that point, revealing some [[FishEyes seriously derpy eyes]], and the mechanics gape in shock as she drives off.

* ''LightNovel/Overlord2012'': Albedo's sister Nigredo has a voluptous body similar to hers, but her face has no skin, meaning it just have exposed muscle, her eyes, and teeth.

* In the high school epsiode of ''Anime/SpaceDandy'', Dandy goes to prom with a girl who isn't much to look at, with freckles and thick coke bottle glasses that cover up weird orifices she has instead of eyes. But she has such a great ass that it gets its own training montage and musical number.

''Film/{{Hellzapoppin}}'' due to her disproportionally large mouth.

* Inverted the in the ''Series/NightGallery'' episode "The Different ones", also written by Twighlight Zone creator Rod Serling. A severely disfigured teenager is sent as Earth's representative on a cultural exchange with a newly contacted alien planet with the theory that he'll be treated better there because they won't know the difference. During the transfer he meets their representative, a conventially handsome youth who interacts with the protagonist as thought he were the butterface. The planet's inhabitants are later revealed to look just like him, in fact he's considered "gorgous" by local standards.
