it's like actually so annoying? he was cute AND talented, you should only be allowed one

forever thinking of that one Rolling Stone interview which described his face as "delicate, almost feminine"

I hate his beard so much. get rid of it immediately

it is legitimately funny people forget he's got extremely well-proportioned heartthrob looks

at his peak he was way prettier than Machine Gun Kelly imo

and by that i mean he's not quite a conventional-looking whiteboy sort. his looks are precise and they're in proportion with themselves but not each other. he's got big ears and a vaguely funny nose. and that's what makes him actually pretty,

YES

in a sea of bland, consumable white boys he looked like a good looking actual person

the little scars on his jawline and mouth. the fact his nose is crooked (which he's sensitive about). his crooked teeth. the goofy smile that kind of stays in the middle of his face.

a significant part of his takeover of TRL is related to the fact that he was the "none of the above" write-in on a dire era of pop culture, but also the fact that he was actually hotter than N*SYNC without looking like he was trying

(of course he was trying. he wore a lot of makeup and had an absurd skincare routine which involved weekly facials to fade his acne scars)

another thing about his looks is that he's pretty rather than handsome, but there is absolutely nothing androgynous about him. or even childlike - he's boyish, but that is as much down to his personality and mannerisms as his actual face
