There are those who would say Alex Skarsgård isn’t humanity’s perfect specimen (fools!). Though beauty may in the eye of the beholder, certain faces consistently ring true to the masses, so we are perpetually bombarded with magazine covers announcing the same top ten list over and over. Being handsome or pretty brings accolades and riches; in some cases, so does having some oddity about one’s appearance or resembling an everyman. But men have an advantage, in that they can get away with being unpleasant to look at and still able to book great roles and even be popular with audiences. So why not celebrate that? While the fashion world may not demand them and the magazines cannot airbrush away their flaws, these fellas have a je ne sais quoi that somehow keeps them booking jobs. Just don’t stare at them too long.
