Celebrities Who Shot Their Shot And Were Turned Down By Other Celebs
Anyone who has ever asked someone out or tried to approach someone they're attracted to knows how nerve-wracking it can be. You're putting yourself out there by shooting your shot and there's no guarantee that it'll turn out how you want.

Chris Rock Was "Uncle-Zoned" By Rihanna
You've heard of the friendzone, but what about the uncle zone? During an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, comedian Chris Rock talked about how he tried (and failed) to shoot his shot with singer Rihanna.
According to Rock, when he approached the musician she looked at him like he was "one of her aunts. She didn't even register me as a sexual being." Rihanna was so uninterested in him, "I was like, in the uncle zone."
James Franco Publicly Denied Lindsay Lohan's Claims That They'd Been Together
Not only did Lindsay Lohan make a physical list of the celebrities she'd been with, she also left that list lying around in public so of course, someone found it and shared it. One of the names on her list was James Franco, who then spoke out to deny their involvement.
He told Los Angeles Magazine that the actress was lying, and during an interview with Howard Stern he doubled down on the fact that he had turned Lohan's advances down.
Julianne Hough Was Snubbed By Daniel Radcliffe As Pre-Teens

George Clooney Tried To Get With Eva Longoria While Still Seeing Someone Else
Is it any surprise that People's Sexist Man Alive also used to be a bit of a player? Before there was an Amal Clooney, Geroge was dating ex-girlfriend Stacy Keibler—and trying to get with Eva Longoria.
The movie star pursued the Desperate Housewives star through calls and texts but the actress shut him down. Longoria apparently made it very clear that she wanted nothing to do with him while he was still involved with his ex-girlfriend.
