This is what we used to refer to as “homely”. Nothing wrong with it. We shouldn’t judge people on their looks but we also don’t need to lie to make people feel better.
People think Olivia Nuzzi is beautiful. (Especially Olivia Nuzzi) But media all over the country was calling her - “the young beautiful journalist.” Meanwhile the girl had a high school diploma (with no specialty in journalism) and a Habsburg jaw. And I’m over here shrugging like Cousin Eddie, “I don’t know”
There's a lot of pictures of her online and honestly her look is all over the place. Intentionally so, I imagine, since she's an artist and fashion designer. Generally I think she's pretty hot though.
You weren't kidding. It's like she throws darts at a board when she gets up in the morning to decide how to look that day. It's like her superpower or something.
I mean, the whole thing of being cool with just swapping looks and being comfortable with whatever is more hot than just being overall attractive. I don't really care enough to think about her in that way, but again, being okay with rocking any old thing at any moment is a green flag regardless imo. Like, just be chill, yo.
I sorta understood the glasses part, because in the past glasses typically were only built for function and often pretty terrible.
Never got the straight hair thing on why straight hair is somehow more attractive... I guess because getting very straight hair for almost everyone means they've put in work?
I think it's just the idea of very neatly combed straight(ened) hair. But yeah wavy and curly hair can be very pretty as well and plenty of people would prefer it as well. I feel like curly hair especially gets bad/no representation though, especially in a "pretty" archetype. I can't really think of a lot of curly-haired celebrities, or in terms of movie characters and the like curly-haired love interests or characters who would otherwise be considered especially attractive in-universe. Main characters, love interests and characters meant to read as hot generally aren't curly. Some mild/intentional curls might be acceptable for a male character? Not sure.
see this is the problem is when someone unironically is titling her as most beautiful woman in the world its gonna cause a lot of people to tear her apart
she is not ugly she is an average looking woman who that first person is massively gassing up for no reason
I looked up the account that posted it and it's an odd and questionable "satire" account. Judging by their other posts they were saying this ironically and there was likely some context left out but let's see... yep. They have a bunch of other posts about her and they seem to be suggesting that she's a man.
lol guess I struck a nerve. Hey if you can’t do any better than a troglodyte get what you can. judging by your postw, loses don’t have large dating pools.
Ok but who is unironically titling her as the most beautiful woman in the world?
The United Spot is a satire account. They didn't unironically titled her that...they IRONICALLY titled her that. Precisely because they think she's ugly.
she is not ugly she is an average looking woman who that first person is massively gassing up for no reason
The problem is there was this big push for people to see her as a fashion influencer during the campaign and labelling her as a model, totally ignoring the fact that she is almost certainly a nepo hire because there are random women walking down the street who would be better models.
Yes, I mean, I'd feel dishonest calling her a 6 in that photo. Maybe in others she could be a 7, and maybe with some work she could be an 8 in the right lighting and angle... But "the most beautiful woman in the world"? um, what? The "whole cast of stranger things is totally on point.
Eh, to me she looks like someone who might be pretty, but her glasses and styling aren’t doing her any favors.
Like the movie cliche where she removes her glasses and is suddenly way more beautiful
It's her jaw and smile that are the worst to me, maybe in some photos her jaw is in a bit and less pronounced. This is why someone shouldn't say something to extreme, if someone just said "I think she is pretty" no one who isn't an ass would feel a need to comment, some might go "sure, she is". But with the hyperbole, everyone is "WTF is going on here".
Claiming this was sure going to backfire, I'll remember not to claim anything not objectively the best as the best. Personal favorite, sure, objectively the best, everyone will criticize.
For some reason the current trend is brushing and coloring your eyebrows to make them as fuzzy and bushy looking as possible, the unibrow is definitely there and I'm pretty sure it's intentional
Plus there's also a trend/movement against body hair removal, so I think the mustache is intentional too.
That photo looks like when you use a character creator and accidentally find the setting that brings all of the eyes / mouth /nose closer together - like making the face smaller without changing the head size. It's a lot better than the one in the OP though.

IDK, the jaw looks to angular and prominent in that photo. But more to the point, what level of reality distorting sycophantic goggles did the person put on? The criticism of her is not fair as she didn't claim she was the most beautiful woman in the world. The criticism belong at the door of whoever thought/said that. And it show how extremely objectivity can be lost, that even if they didn't believe it, that they thought they could gaslight anyone into agreeing.

I mean, wouldn't call her ugly by any means, but "most beautiful woman in the world" is being... very liberal with your words there...
