"Studly" actors that you wouldn't look twice at.

I truly enjoy threads like this one. They're revealing (in a good way).

It shows how different we all are in our tastes.

Also now that he is acting now, I have to add Harry Styles to my list. The ladies love him, but I don’t really see his appeal. Plus he queer baits.

We were both a little shocked that he’s even better-looking in person than on film. He kept his clothes on all evening, but he moves well and looks to have a very nice body. 

The camera is funny that way. Living in NYC, in the Greenwich Village neighborhood, I see celebrities all the time...and yes. It's weird how some look so plain in person (Sarah Jessica Parker , Gwenyth Paltrow) and others sparkle even brighter than they do in film  (Orlando Bloom, Charlie Carver)

Women are helped greatly by makeup.  I notice both of your "sparkly" celebrities are men and both the ordinary-looking ones are women.  Post-pandemic, I have noticed quite a few women going without makeup and lots of others wearing less.  Maybe women are realizing they don't need to paint themselves up beyond recognition.   And I read recently that the mask-like look women achieve from foundation  is on the way out  and a more natural look is taking its place.

A good point for sure

Since both these women live and/or have lived around the corner from me, I probably have more opportunity to catch them without makeup. Both of them are quite plain ( even rather ugly in the case of Sarah Jessica) without their hair and make up.

I have seen photos of Gwyneth Paltrow without makeup . She's unrecognizable.

Same for Sarah Jessica.

I was literally sitting next to her in a restaurant and until her husband  (Matthew Broderick) arrived to their table I wouldn't have recognized her. (I used to see Matthew all the time when they had the dog...some him I know.)

For me, at the top of a list like this would be Cheyenne Jackson. On paper, he checks all of my boxes (even with a singing voice that melts butter), but there's just something that turns me off. I'm sure he's a lovely person, but I detect an air of smarminess about him, I guess...

I have seen Keanu Reeves in person twice, but I was checking out his butt not his face.
