This isn’t poll worthy because I don’t care about the actual Yes or No answers. I’m looking for the comments that accompany your answers I guess. For those of you that don’t know [Charlotte McKinney](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bq3ywTcCAAAUFOc.jpg:large)is the hot model with great body, but I’m being redundant. You might know her from the recent Carl’s Jr ads. Yes, she has a very toned body, big boobs; and she is very attractive … but here’s something off about her nose and philtrum. It’s like that part of her face seems plastic to me; or like the distance between her nose and upper lip have been shortened. Anyone else see that? Does anyone care? FWIW I would say I generally like distinct looking people (or at the very least they don’t bother me) but I find her off-putting in some sort of way. That is all. ---

Bar-B Q. ETA: [spoiler]That’s “Barbie,” slathered with too much sauce and overcooked. Like most (blonde) models. She probably looks like Ellen DeGeneres without her coatings.[/spoiler] ---

Just based on that one picture, she looks way too artificial for my tastes. ---

I just checked in my Sims 3 game and that seems to be the default distance (nose to lip). i did have to adjust the philtrum a bit. Good thing her knees aren’t sharp. ---

I have no complaints. Even covering her body and just looking at her face, still no complaints. ---

She is so far beyond pretty that it makes pretty an insult. ---

I can’t really say what it is but I do think she looks “odd”. Pretty. But odd. ---

I can’t imagine anyone not thinking she’s pretty. In that picture she looks quite fake and vacant which almost cancels out the pretty but the thing with here nose / mouth doesn’t bother me. Now that I’ve looked at other picture of her - holy crap, what a body! - I would never say she isn’t pretty but I personally don’t find her appealing, if that makes sense. ---

It’s interesting that perceptions like the OP’s and a few that follow do think she looks “odd” - because she does not have a nose that fits into a very, very narrow range of shape and proportion. By a very slight amount. Discounting, on the one hand, that humans are wired to perceive and process faces with far more nuance and detail than almost any other visual element - the other hand is “When the hell did ‘beauty’ become so-so-so narrowly defined that a nearly invisible variation calls a person’s level of same into question?” Yes, she’s artificial all to hell in that picture, but you’d have to be way outside norms to say she’s not [del]pretty[/del] beautiful by almost any standard of the last few centuries. Or more. ---

She looks good in that picture, but [she looks weird in others](http://www.google.com/url?sa=i&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CAgQjRw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cleveland.com%2Fentertainment%2Findex.ssf%2F2015%2F01%2Fsuper_bowl_commercials_2015_ch.html&ei=IqzPVLvSH8GLgwTN2YKYDA&psig=AFQjCNFog0piZC4BURdPPTj4cE8ySJ5bjQ&ust=1422982562596480). She seems to be one of those girls who looks stunning from certain angles and certain poses, but looks actively weird or even unattractive from others. Emily Blunt comes to mind as another celebrity who definitely has her moments where she looks stunning from certain angles and with certain makeup and hair, but as a rule, isn’t “beautiful”. But… she’s good enough looking that with her body, she jumps into the super-sexy category. ---
