“I am curious what Ms. Baum considers “pretty”?”
A plaid wearing dike?
Can’t speak to her acting ability, but clearly this persons claim of “not pretty” is just nonsensical ranting.
Honestly wouldn’t be surprised if her acting isn’t great, there are a lot of women and men in Hollywood who can’t act worth a lick and yet still have long successful careers.
but she has a nice rack....
If the FemiNazi’z hate Sweeney, then she is good enough for me. Now if Trump can get an endorsement from her that would be icing on the cake.
She’s obviously attractive and what little of her I’ve seen she’s a decent enough actress.
Carol, you don’t get a vote on which females are considered pretty by us males. She’s hot as hell. You’re a no talent hack. I wouldn’t even notice if you shriveled up and blew away tomorrow.
Yes. She is a bitter, old, jealous feminist. Sweeney is very much like Marilyn Monroe. She jumps off the screen.
Horrible thing to say privately, worse to say publicly. Jealous, old hag.
She has a good bod. If she didn’t have large boobs she might be ignored.
If I knew who Sydney Sweeney was I might care. But I don’t...so I don’t.
She must have turned this pig down on one of her advances.
I try to stay out of the "prettiness" chatter, as it seems ungentlemanly to be dissecting young women's facial features. They are who they are and I have a great respect for those who avoid plastic surgery. That said, this is Hollywood we're talking about. Almost all of the young women are 7.5 or higher on the standard 1-10 scale -- and kudos to the scattered exceptions who make successful careers, generally as supporting actors, despite rather plain looks. Since I am a gentleman, I will leave the ladies out of it, but Willem Dafoe and Steve Buscemi are two good go-to examples on the male side.
Steve Buscemi famously remarked that the luckiest break in his career was never getting his teeth fixed. He's very upfront about it. With perfect teeth, he'd be just another guy with very average looks; instead, he's distinctive and that has paid off.
Personally, I think the same is true on the female side. Each to his own, but I am bored with "Algorithm Girl," the innumerable clones of the 20-something hotties that producers seem to think are the lowest common denominator chicks to attract the random male gaze.
Florence Pugh gave an interview a couple of years ago about the advice she got from some studio hotshot when she was just starting out. She was still a teenager. The creep told her that she could never succeed in the industry unless she had serious work done: a new nose, new chin, new cheeks (e.g. buccal fat removal, etc.), etc. She didn't mention anything about starving herself or going on meds to shed weight or going in for fake boobs, but it wouldn't surprise me if that those were on the list as well. She said that she was demoralized to the point of almost quitting acting, but she decided to stick to her natural looks and she's done pretty well for herself. IMHO, the best of the young actresses all have slightly off-brand looks that make them distinctive. It's an intangible thing, but I suspect that the gals with slightly off-brand looks have to make it on the basis of acting ability, and that tells over time if they can first get established.
Sydney Sweeney? I had to laugh at this:
Referencing the producing class she teaches at the USC School of Cinematic Arts, Baum added: 'I said to my class, "Explain this girl to me. She's not pretty, she can't act. Why is she so hot?''
'Nobody had an answer but then the question was asked, "Well if you could get your movie made because she was in it, would you do it?"
Every student in that class knew the answer but political correctness prevented them from saying it. Sydney Sweeney has big boobs and she has been by far the nakedest of the current under-30 cohort of rising actresses. That has always been a path to success in the movie industry, but IMHO it is a negative. The fact is, most actresses will never do nudity onscreen -- but as they rise into the breakout zone of becoming a major star, the producers obviously start pushing them to strip off. I have a great deal of respect for those who say no, even though it probably limits their careers in many instances.
The problem is that everyone has differing opinions of what is “pretty”. And they find different things on a woman to determine their “pretty” factors. It is all subjective.
I know people who think Angelina Jolie is absolutely beautiful. I have never even thought she was pretty. But, I think she can be extremely sexy and hot, at times.
And THAT is what causes so many arguments, because men often mistake “hotness” with “pretty”.
