Fan Disservice/Music
- "Not Myself Tonight" by Christina Aguilera is known for how it failed in the sexy department.
- "Dirrty" wasn't considered appealing at its time of release – controversial yes, appealing no.
- "nasty naughty boy" has her screaming at the top of her lungs, and not in an appealing way.
- They Might Be Giants' song "The Catalyst":

Close your eyes! Darth Vader is naked! |

- The music video for "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails has this in spades. There are naked women (and naked bondage-Trent) but the other images and the music itself prevent it from being anywhere near Fan Service.
- Meanwhile, the music video for "Happiness In Slavery" makes "Closer" look tame. It involves a naked man torn to pieces in gruesome ways. If it weren't in black and white, it would be completely unwatchable. And this is just the most widely seen portion of the semi-unreleased Broken Movie, which is apparently twenty minutes of stuff like this, though most of it is rather tame music videos by Happiness in Slavery standards. The rest will remove parts of your soul that you can never reclaim.
- In the full version of Robbie Williams's "Rock DJ," Robbie takes it all off. By "all off," that includes his skin and muscle tissue.
- P!nk's "Stupid Girls" video has three scenes of Pink wearing not very much - the first is her in a bikini getting a completely ugly orange spray tan, the second is her pants getting ripped off completely in the gym to her humiliation and the third is her topless but getting ready to have a ton of cosmetic surgery. She was probably going for this as well with the pisstake of Jessica Simpson in "These Boots Are Made For Walking".
- In "Perfect" the girl in the video is seen in a bathtub, carving the word "Perfect" into her arm. Squick.
- There are plenty of bikini-clad women in Aphex Twin's "Windowlicker." The catch: all of them have Richard D. James's face.
- The music videos for "Pon De Floor" and "Keep It Goin' Louder" by Major Lazer.
- Divine's I'm So Beautiful music video. The title doesn't help to "her" jiggling.
- The random hairless cat that flashes for a fraction of a second in Bad Romance.
- Lady Gaga uses this trope as frequently as she uses Fetish Fuel.
- The music video for "Girls & Boys" by Good Charlotte. Elderly people dressed like younger people.
- Murdoc Niccals of Gorillaz is basically made of Fan Disservice.
- The career of Mexican singer Alejandra Guzmán since the early 2000s. She aims to be Ms. Fanservice, but she gets into Erection Rejection at best. That one of her moves to be perceived as sexy was to be the host of the Spanish version of "VH-1's 100 Least Sexy Songs Ever" only make her look as desperate instead of cheeky.
- The cover for Intestinal Disgorge's "Depravity" is a man having sex with a lady in S&M gear... who has obviously been dead for at least a few days and is thoroughly mangled from the waist down.
- The Scissor Sisters' video for "Invisible Light." Among other moments, a man licks the stigmatic hand of a naked, bone-thin woman while the screen cuts to a cleaned (as in, for cooking) rabbit crucified.
- The Contemptible Cover of Bloodhound Gang's Hefty Fine, with a naked obese man.
- The video for LMFAO's "Sexy And I Know It". It starts with the band members themselves nearly naked, and while they're not all that good-looking, they're not bad-looking either. But then they amp it by doing very unsexy poses and dance moves, and by the climax of the video there's a huge, hairy overweight man at the camera.
- Most fan videos for "Sexy and I Know It" use unattractive characters in joking reference to this. There's even one using a lot of incredibly unattractive pictures of various exposed flesh from People of WalMart.
