No, no, Judd Nelson vibes were what he was giving off back in 2001 or whatever. Now he just looks like the kid at back of BOCES who eats industrial glue.

why is that guy bending beardo+w glasses over his knee like he's going to spank him

it doesn't look like he's getting spanked, he's getting spliced

What the fuck drugs was I taking in 2001 or whenever to make him look even remotely attractive. (Don't answer that.)

Hey shut up, I actually respect Interpol for their ~music~ as well as thinking they're totally shagwell material!

The entire media culture that produces celebrities, including "serious" musicians, is focused on attractiveness, is built on attractiveness, so it's kind of beside the point to say "well *I* don't focus on whether PJ Harvey is attractive" -- you're a lot less likely to ever even come across her less attractive counterpart. I don't know how much of that is media reflecting our culture vs. the nature of media that relies heavily on visual images to market someone, but that seems like the inescapable fact. We can still always push back against that to an extent, demand something different, but most people will continue to discuss the attractiveness of musicians, especially female musicians, because that is what the culture pretty much encourages/asks them to do all the time.

Come on, Kessler wouldn't wear a *leather* vest under his suit, he's vegetarian!
His vest would totally be designed by Dior Homme from the tears of angels or something. Kessler has style, man. And style is worthwhile.
(I think Carlos was more the "leather vest" type, back in his "Weimar Lesbian Cabaret" days.)

I think some writers must find Harvey attractive, they've written about her like she's a man-eating harpy, which is their way of saying 1) they take her too literally 2) they're uncomfortable when an attractive woman performs as she does.
Nothing wrong with finding anyone attractive, what bugs me is when someone assumes everyone shares their taste.

Lopez makes a public service announcement, prepping viewers for "maximum impact" before triggering a countdown that ends with an explosion and alternating opening shots of the stars' backsides, as Lopez chants the chorus "Big big booty, she got a big booty."
maura did you not prepare yourself for maximum impact

Why does that day never come.

But no, we just make fun of the (lack of) male attractiveness and make jokes about "uglitude".

I have hardly any idea what most new artists I listen to even look like these days. The visual component in the media package for music seems less important lately. Of course, I'm willing to bet I'm the exception to the rule.
