Boring and the Beast |
Just about every time there is a movie where the whole plot relies on some female character's supposed beauty, Hollywood insists on casting average looking women. Time and time again, they produce films where some man is supposed to go nuts over some woman, only to have the woman be totally forgettable in the looks department. It's not that they're ugly, they're just meh. Like a movie about a band that gets famous after making a really popular song, the whole premise crumbles if that song is not catchy in the least.
And the weird thing is that there's always so many more beautiful women in porn, than in big budget Hollywood movies. Hollywood is all about physical appearance, and women are often paid by how much they manage to fill the role of sex symbols, and yet, the women Hollywood wants me to be attracted to, like Megan Fox, Jessica Alba and now apparently Emma Watson, can't hold a candle to Bree Olson, Ashlynn Brooke, Tori Black, etc.

Beast becomes the beauty |
Now, if you look at pictures of porn stars before and after they put on make-up, you'll realize they also get a lot of help. But that still begs the question: Why are make-up artists in porn so much better, than make-up artists in big budget Hollywood movies? Or rather: Why is Hollywood's definition of beauty so unappealing?

This does nothing for me |
Of course, acting in movies is not all about looks, and it's always a plus if actresses can actually act, but a lot of the best paid women in Hollywood are no better at acting, than porn stars who pretend to get a visit from the plumber. And never mind the "serious" roles which wins the Oscars; the girls who play purposely slutty roles in Hollywood, are still nowhere near as beautiful as some of the wonderful sluts in the porn industry. Take a movie like Jennifer's Body, where even the title tells you that you're supposed to get turned on, and yet the woman showcasing this body of Jennifer, is someone most men wouldn't even bother checking out if they passed her in the street. Megan Fox and the likes still gets paid tons of money to play in shitty movies like these because someone thinks their looks alone will sell. Heck, even someone as dreadful as Paris Hilton can actually boast to have a professional acting career based upon her supposed hotness, in spite of the fact that the only person on the planet who thinks she is hot, is probably herself.
As there are tens of thousands of women wishing to succeed in Hollywood, why hire an average looking one to play the role of "the beautiful girl that drives men crazy"? Or why not at least apply some better make-up to make them actually look hot? It's like all the casting agents and make-up artists in Hollywood are
super-gay men who can only guess at what heterosexual men find
attractive.
Do you agree, or am I full of it? And what supposed hot actress do you struggle to see the appeal of? I'd love to hear your comments below.
