Isn’t this extremely genre dependent? And regardless, this has been going on for a long time.
The Supremes? Good looking gals (and great music IMHO).
Grateful Dead? Sure, rough around the edges.
The Doors? Um…ever seen a picture of Jim Morrison? Dude would make Derek Zoolander blush.
Out of curiosity, I asked Spotify for modern metal music, and I got The Black Dahlia Murder — frontman looks like a regular dude who I’d grab a beer with.
Yeah, modern pop places a ton of emphasis on looks, sure. But I think this has been pretty prominent in music for a very long time, be it the airbrushed R&B of the sixties, the androgynous glam of the eighties, or the metro sexual (guy)/model-esque looks of modern pop.
Beauty is also within the eye of the beholder, many forget this.
My first proper boyfriend was very attractive to me, because he resembled Jarvis from Pulp. Not everyone’s cup of tea, yet I found that look very attractive.
