Kim and Kourtney Kardashian's voices. Blech. Khloe to an extent. Ben Stein is too monotone (although I think that's an act he's playing because that's what he's known for). Kelsey Grammar has a sort of uppity snobbish sound to his voice. Never really liked it.
As for voices I like, Morgan Freeman has a nice one. It's kind of soothing.
Drew Barrymore ("like," "amazing," giggly, Valley-Girlish)
Barbara Walters (say an "R!" Just SAY IT!! You've been on TV for 50 years!!!)
Jane Fonda (Why must ever-ee-thinG bee sO pree-cise?)
Candice Bergen (I don't know; I use ev-er-y syll-a-bylle tooooo)
Alan Rickman (nasal, can hear him breathing when he talks; must be a terrible snorer)
Winona Ryder (that pronounced "S" and "C": "Mr. Deeds" "Scissorhands" "Mrs. Flax"
Paula Deen ("speaks" for herself but I wish she wouldn't)
Ray Romano (high, whiny, pipsqueaky, tenor, no bass, irritating, accent yuck)
George W. Bush (drawl, just the tone and the cadence drive me crazy)
Brad Garrett (sounds like a monster, that horrible low rumble)
Peter Coyote (indefinable; I can't watch a documentary if he narrates it)
Nancy Wilson of Heart (sing-songy, little-girly, dumb blonde stereotype sound)
Ken Olin (it's like he's always short of breath, makes me tense, whiny, slow, too many vowels, too self-conscious)

Pic is coming out too small on my laptop. Tom Hiddleston?
Bobcat Goldthwait, his fake voice is very annoying, super high-pitched even though it suited his quirky movie characters.

I agree. I don't like her looks but voice wise, he sounds different (better) speaking Spanish. I do sound a bit different when I speak my own language. People tell me my voice is deeper, etc.
This voice variation can happen with foreigners though. Even if the person's spoken English skills are decent, due to people they encounter, constantly picked on or whatever, they can become quite conscious, concerned and to a degree nervous about their accent and subconsciously start mumbling or speaking quietly or even less.

Oh my, I have to agree.
Also can't stand the voice of the actor that plays the gay kid in Glee. I occasionally catch glimpses of the show while my daughter is watching. His voice is so high pitched, whiny and immediately grates on my ears. He sure can sing and act though. Very talented individual. Just don't care for his voice and wish he spoke several pitches lower. And no, I'm not homophobic.
Like:
Peter Coyote
Shatner
Nimoy
Barb Eden
the late John Denver (speaking and singing were exceptional)
the late Mike Landon
the late Charles Boyer
the late Cary Grant
the late Burl Ives
Julie Andrews
Whoopi Goldberg (great rasp)
Ted Koppel
Diane Sawyer
the late John Wayne
Jane Seymour Sean Connery
the late Jimmy Stewart
the late Dudley Moore
Christopher Lee
Christopher Plummer
Della Reese
James Earl Jones
the late Humphrey Bogart
Peter Lorre
the late Boris Karloff
the late Peter Graves
the late Davy Jones, and more!
I am guessing you just like Sean Connery's voice or is it something else about him?
