Starting tomorrow the prettiest of all the pretty boys, Zac Efron, will appear in “High School Musical 3,” the final chapter in the franchise that made him a star. While we were a little turned on by his performance in last year’s “Hairspray,” we just can’t get over how there isn’t a stray hair on his head, and how perfectly groomed his eyebrows are. Was he born this way, or does he have a glam-squad that keeps him beautiful? We’re inclined to think the latter. Pretty boys are nice to look at, but we don’t think we’d date one for fear that people would take one look at us with them and scream, “Mismatch!” Below, some pretty boy archetypes.
The Prettiest Of All The Pretty Boys: Zac Efron
He sings! He dances! He’s had a six-pack since birth!

The Reformed Pretty Boy: Nick Cannon
Cannon started dressing a lot nicer (read: suits) after getting hitched to Mariah Carey. And look at those chompers—he definitely gets them whitened.

The “Tough” Pretty Boy: Wentworth Miller
Miller proves that even a short-haired man can achieve the “pretty boy” look…as long as he has an extremely chiseled face.

The Preppy Pretty Boy: Chace Crawford
Crawford is always, always, always photo-ready.

The Product Whore Pretty Boy: Diddy
Diddy actually admitted to getting manicures, pedicures, and has his privates waxed.

I would SOOOOO date Zac Efron. And Chace Crawford, for that matter. But I don’t think I’d call the others “pretty boys”, more like… “well groommed men”. But to me pretty boys have that youthful face too, I’d say more like Justin Timberlake or Gael Garcia Bernal or Jared Leto. They just always LOOK like they’re 20, have beautiful hair, and very pretty eyes. And, clean-shaven. I think that’s what really makes them pretty boys…

Pretty sure Zac Efron is not a real person. I’d like to think that in two years he’ll play a heroin addict in a Gus Van Sant movie and become awesome.
Catherine, it was nice meeting you at the Lykke Li show and then preposterously loud stereogum party. Even if you are obviously a video bootlegger of indie rock shows.

Chace is awfully pretty, not Diddy.

I would jump on Wentworth Miller before he even had the chance to say “hello.” Or, more likely, “who is this crazy woman get her away from me.” But like I said, before he even had a chance to say it, so it wouldn’t matter.

How about some guys who actually look like men? Sorry, but there is no character in any of their faces.. who wants a man who spends more time primping than you do?
Sorry…I like a well groomed, clean man that still looks like a man.
