I don’t know if you’ve ever been on a professional film set – I have a few times. You can start to realize WHY movie stars look as good as they do on camera, they’ve got entire teams of people making sure that happens.
Of course, it helps to start off by being really, really, really ridiculously good looking. Like the folks Twitter user @texaninnyc was referring to in this tweet:

So, what does Twitter think? Let’s look at a few of their nominees.

17. Marlon Brando
A Streetcar Named Desire.
I have to warn my students about it so that they will not audibly gasp and then start talking to each other instead of watching Streetcar. pic.twitter.com/a81rxN1CvE

15. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
Star of many Indian films.
My wife came in the room while Devdas was on and said, “Who… Who is THAT?” “Aishwarya Rai, often called ‘The most beautiful woman in the world.'” She stood frozen and watched an entire scene. “Yes. That checks out.” pic.twitter.com/Bz84KvfY1r
