People the world see as good looking/attractive but you don't see it

EdenHazard · 28-06-2012 3:47am #1

Was thinking about this tonight after watching a documentary from the BBC about beauty and they brought up the Nixon/Kennedy presidential campaign, and how JFK won because of his looks. I'm there thinking that man is not a good looking dude, no matter what era, but yet in documentaries we hear of his 'movie star good looks' In the youtube comments section you'll see people who share a similar view as myself.

Another one is the Beatles, how the hell were they teenage hearthrobs? They were all ugly with good hair.

Girl wise, Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, Charlotte from Geordie Shore I just don't get their appeal.

You watched a documentary about a documentary about beauty?

Angelina Jolie and any of those women who think having a huge arse is sexy. No, just no.

Case closed. The were ugly lads, I wouldn't mind, they made great music, but they were seen as the 'Justin Biebers' of their day, feck sake wish I lived back then, be pulling every weekend if that was the standard.

But like seriously, there is truth to what I'm saying. In a class of 30, Paul McCartney might be seen as average(at best) but the rest were ugly guys, at least in my opinion.

I don't' get why girls like Usher. He looks like a Somali Pirate.

Nicki Minaj looks like a clown. Seriously. An actual circus clown. If you like fucking clowns, she's hot.

Potential-Monke · 28-06-2012 3:57am

In answer to the question, money + popularity = hotness. You honestly think the Beatles would have been so "good looking" if they weren't famous?

And Justin Bieber is the standard by which we judge people?

It's obvious Beatlemania was down to their hair! The whole White Album? Written by John and Paul's wavy locks no doubt!

But I suppose, like JFK it was their charisma.

Edit, In particular that James guy. Want to beat the living **** out of him and his "cowmb ova" :mad:

I used Bieber because Biebermania has been compared to Beatlemania.

Sindri · 28-06-2012 4:03am

I don't think Angelina Jolie is particularly good looking neither is Kate Moss or Claudia Schiffer (who looks like a whiskerless schnauzer) or most models really.

Matt Damon looks like an autistic. MATT DAMON!

EdenHazard · 28-06-2012 4:06am

Oh oh Naomi Campbell is a serious candidate imo

southsiderosie · 28-06-2012 4:06am

Maybe it is because she is a Betty and I'm more into Veronicas, but I have never understood all of the fuss over Jennifer Aniston. She has a slammin' body and great hair, but I don't think she is earth-shatteringly attractive...and the fact that she seems kind of whiny and high-maintenance doesn't help.

I guess you could plausibly find Justin Bieber attractive if you were a 19-year old lesbian...

He looks like your typical 18 year old there.

Just on(get it haha) Bieber, his looks are overrated because of who he is, but can't say he isn't a good looking dude. Contrast that to the Beatles who look like the smelly rockers in your year.

B.A._Baracus · 28-06-2012 4:21am

Truth be known most celebrites arent as goodlooking as we are lead to believe.

Kathy Perry is a great example. 15/10 with make up on :P... but without make up? certainly still an attractive women. But not as jaw droppingly stunning.

Yeah the pink lipstick really brings out his mascara.

Yeah true, take Avril Lavigne, I absolutely love her but if she wasn't famous and she wasn't all done up at huge cost, I'd prob walk past her on the street without a second look.

What's your obsession with Justin bieber? He's a little runt of a kid tbh

Yeah, but some are even better looking in person. I used to live in South Beach, and I saw Anna Kournikova around the neighborhood a few times. I thought she was overrated until I saw her in person....glowing skin, gorgeous hair, and an incredibly toned, healthy-looking body. And this is how she looked coming out of Blockbuster wearing an oversized sleeveless t-shirt, flip-flops, and warm-up pants...

EdenHazard · 28-06-2012 4:29am

I like his football skills?.....obviously I like his music. He isn't really a runt, I don't know what word I could use here to describe him, but ''gay'' would prob be the easiest to use(no offence but just his mannerisms and stuff) Amount of nonsense he talks, especially when he's on that clown Ellen's show is ridiculous.

brummytom · 28-06-2012 4:29am

Ted Bundy.

I watched some documentary about him recently and everyone said how good looking he was. No, he was an ugly fúcker

1ZRed · 28-06-2012 4:30am

Speaking of things Justin bieber related, I think Selena Gomez isn't attractive at all!

She has such a full face with a skinny body. I just find her very average at best tbh

EdenHazard · 28-06-2012 4:32am

A common one alright, I've heard the same said about David Koresh. 'Used his good looks and charisma to brainwash......'

Seriously, the brainwashing defo came first.

Agree about Selena, she's cute, but not hot.

In Russia she would be pretty average to be honest.

No I think runt is a great word to describe him because he's given himself two concussions in the last month by walking into glass and falling down the stairs??Come on we've all done that drunk but we got up and shook it off!:D
So yeah, I think he is a bit of a light weight runt (being like 5'5 doesn't help either)

But that's just talking about him himself without the music. If you like it that's no problem I'm not throwing down on you for it man.

Johnny Depp
Brad Pitt
Matt Damon

SO many people think they're just unreal hot.. I don't understand it at all for any of them. Especially Matt Damon and Johnny Depp, I'd go as far to say that I think they're ugly. Brad Pitt is not ugly but I just don't see what others seem to see in him.
