Everybody is judged by their looks... everybody.
Not everyone.
Just those who make money based on their looks or are in the public eye.

I dont think its the same.Ithink anyone could name many big time male actors/muscians who arent very attractive you would be hard pressed to do the same for women at least in the last 20 years.
Not really. There are plenty of less attractive women who have been successful in show business as well. There is pressure on both of the sexes to sell an image, moreso in the modern day now that we have TVs and computers etc. But overall I don't really see any reason to believe that the pressure to be attractive applies more to women than to men.
Really? best actor oscar for the last 10 years Russell Crowe,Denzel Washington,Adrien Brody,Sean Penn, Jamie Foxx,Philip Seymour Hoffman,Forest Whitaker,Daniel Day-Lewis,Sean Penn and Jeff Bridges. Best actress oscar for the last 10 years Julia Roberts,Halle Berry,Nicole Kidman,Charlize Theron, Hilary Swank,Reese Witherspoon,Helen Mirren,Marion Cotillard,Kate Winslet,Sandra Bullock.
There are attractive people on both list but its very clear the female list all attractive women and Helen mirran is the most attractive older person you could possibly get to play the queen.
Actually, nobody on your list- male or female- would be likely to win any beauty contests. Especially against the rest of young Hollywood.
Good looks do not assure one success in life- especially in the entertainment industry, where the standards are higher- but ugliness is definitely a handicap, in any field.

Yeah, well, lady gaga is pretty much the most popular singer these days and I think she's pretty ugly, or very plain at best... aside from all the silly costumes, that is. And look at Oprah...she made it big (understatement) on TV. There are others.
At 18, Oprah was crowned Miss Black Tennessee.
Her good looks got her a lucrative news anchor job at 19, and from there she was on her way.
(underline added)Gaga is fairly blah-faced, but most people think she's got a nice body, and nobody can really see what she looks like anyway, so it wouldn't matter if her face was ugly or pretty.
Half the time she's wearing some kind of mask or veil, and the rest of the time she's got so much paint on her face you can't really see what it looks like.
I don't know who any of them are.
The only one I think is even remotely attractive is the one in the pink skirt.
Maybe they look better in real life, or in other pictures.
It's hard to tell, from one still image, what somebody looks like.
They are all attractive however its quite sad for women that be it music or acting they are still judged by their looks.
She is going to be in part 2 of the poll :mrgreen: And an actress called Megan Follows plus 3 others. :2wave:Speaking of the beautiful women of country, Faith Hill is somewhere in the top two.
Cool!
When you're ready to include Christina Hendricks, give me a holler.
Do you watch Mad Men? When I first saw Joan I thought "WHOA! How on earth did they find a woman with a body from the 1950's?
