Re: Give me your favorite hot actors/actresses

I get the point of this, but I also I hate this kind of commentary about the flaws of actresses who are also sex symbols. She got hired as an actress because she was amazingly beautiful FFS. There were probably hundreds of actresses who could have made her roles 'believable', but they wouldn't have fit the 'fantasy' that the producers were going for and people (i.e. men) would have complained that X actress didn't have the 'presence' (i.e. body/face) of Raquel Welch or some such shit. And in both these scenarios the women who get chosen to play some bullshit male fantasy are the ones who get shit on if they then fall short. Of a fantasy. Ugh.

Where were the bullshit commentaries on how Sean Connery isn't believable as an international spy because he has an incredibly recognisable accent, and plus he isn't believably 'sexy' enough to get all the women he does because of x,y,z characteristics? Oh right, they don't exist.

I'm pretty sure Sean hasn't had all the plastic surgery in the world, and I know he can actually pronounce English words Raquel has problems with, like "look" and "help".

How is that Raquel's fault though? Isn't it the casting director/producers' faults for choosing physical beauty over acting ability/diction? Why does she have to bear the brunt of the criticism for what is actually a critique on what an industry force feeds a society and what society accepts as a portrayal of an ideal woman?

Also, acting is cutthroat business where appearances can be everything. Many actors and actresses have come out about the pressure to get plastic surgery and their reasons to get it or not. People have been discussing the ethics of plastic surgery for decades, and I'm pretty sure the consensus on either side is that individuals shouldn't be singled out for choosing to go that route.
