What's Sexy Now
Nov. 4th, 2009 11:09 amI laughed a little over this: Harper's Finally Gives These Nice Twilighting Kids Some Exposure (Am I Saying That Right?).
Kristen Stewart looks good. Though kind of...Evan Rachel Wood-y. (I think it's the smile.)
Anyway, what I found most amusing was the "WHAT'S SEXY NOW" plastered on top of them. Not referring to them, because of the "Update Your Look" underneath, but still. Arguably Twilight is what's sexy now. To the masses anyway.
But the reason I found it amusing was because back when the new Star Trek came out, there was an article on Yahoo asking if Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto could beat Robert Pattinson out for attention from the hordes. Their answer was "No." The reason?
I think this is a good post to say that I've been thinking about the phrase "eye candy" and the not so correct "eye food" lately. (Gee, I wonder why?) For me it's come to a point where "eye candy" is exactly what it sounds like, someone pretty to look at. "Eye food" totally able to describe people who "look like real grownups who have real sex" or are just too substantially attractive to be candy.
Eye candy = Zac Efron (when he doesn't have stupid hair, think Hairspray)
Eye food = Misha Collins (c'mon, you know I'm right)

Unlike Z-Pine, who look like real grownups who have real sex, R.Pattz—thanks in part to a role as a perpetual teenage vampire—comes off like a kid. A nonsexually threatening kid.
