MOST celebrities are visions of beauty, so ones who are merely quite attractive are regarded as runts of the litter. We’re sure these love being described as ‘unconventionally attractive’.
Eva Green
You’d think that being a Bond girl would be a safe sign that Eva Green is pretty fit. Apparently not. Even a cursory Google of her name reveals that people are confused by her bone structure. And these comments must be onto something because they’re made by Reddit users, known for being connoisseurs of aesthetics who only date at supermodel level.
Rami Malek
If you’re hot enough to front a hit TV series and play Freddie Mercury in a Queen biopic, then chances are you’re certifiably good-looking. But for Rami Malek’s sake, let’s hope he doesn’t read reviews that fixate on his prominent jawline and formidable cheekbones. Which is fair enough, because it’s common knowledge that women prefer a massive underbite and round, chubby faces.
Anya Taylor-Joy
While it’s true that Anya Taylor-Joy has a haunting, otherworldly beauty, the sort you’d expect to find with the ghost of a mermaid, it’s still beauty nonetheless. Can you really claim to compete with her beguiling visage as it swims across the red carpet? No, you cannot. And imagine her comparative beauty if she walked into McDonald’s. She’d be worshipped as a god-queen and not have to pay for her Big Mac.
Benedict Cumberbatch
Secretly, Benedict Cumberbatch knows he is not your traditional Hollywood hunk. You do not get cast as Sherlock Holmes or Doctor Strange if you look like a male catalogue model. But for an actor, deep-set eyes and a narrow jaw are a blessing, not a curse. They mean you get to play all the creepy freaks people would definitely think you were if you weren’t famous.
Lorde
Is Lorde attractive? Yes. Is her beauty slightly out of step with the ideals that fame and success dictate? Also yes. But for a pioneering and groundbreaking musician who has done more with her life than you ever will, who gives a shit? Probably not Lorde, who can always blot out the pain of being merely attractive by counting a massive pile of Scrooge McDuck money.
