Looking, I might add, quite frightening. Genuinely alien-like.

The eyebrows don’t seem that odd to me - lots of women have odd eyebrows due to shaving them off and painting new ones on.

But the top of the face down to the cheekbones is much wider than the chin, to the point that it looks bizarre, like two separate faces joined together. And I understand the alien comment as it looks like an android/alien attempt at a human disguise. The face is likely to cause unease because of that. Perhaps it’s overzealous contouring with make-up that’s making it look so extreme.

Is that not what the Kardashian’s do?

I don’t know who any of these people are so looking at it from a purely simple angle, it’s someone in a gorgeous gown smiling into a camera, what on Earth have a pair of eyebrows and forehead got to do with anything and why does it upset people enough to make such a comment about them looking “alien like”?

It’s really not self explanatory.
No matter what this person has said/done, there’s no call to comment on how they look.

“Alien like” = like an alien.

And given the quite considerable lengths Dylan has gone to to alter his appearance, and the very public way he has done so, I think it’s perfectly fair that people may comment on how he looks.

She's a celebrity. That's why she's there.

I love her dress, hate the hair and makeup.

I think he looks unwell.
I also think photos like the ones above demonstrate just how filtered a lot of the images of many TW are.

They are promoting themselves using how they look. In fact, it is a primary part of them 'being a girl'.
As Dylan is making a living from how they look (including being open about surgical cosmetic procedures) then I think responding to that image with comments is fair and acceptable.
I think the alien look is a combination of very pale face and dark eyes in the camera flash, plus flat (botoxed?) forehead and nose shape.

You’re describing something akin to the uncanny valley. You know he’s a man who’s done weird things to his face, his eyebrows look odd, it’s an artificial look: he’s pretending to be something he’s not. It provokes a human reaction because we sense something doesn’t click.

But mostly it’s his eyebrows.

“Alien like”, what do you mean?

It’s fairly self-explanatory…

So have half the women on my morning commuter train but I wouldn’t call them “alien like”.

He's not looking good - he's done some strange things to his face.

Beefcurtains79 · 08/01/2024 06:54

Because Hollywood, despite being the sleaziest, most morally bankrupt place in the world loves to virtue signal.

ZuttZeVootEeeVo · 08/01/2024 06:54

He's there now because theres a good chance he's not going to be famous enough to be there next year.

Lots of current and former broadway actors there.

Mulvaney has never acted on Broadway. His only 'significant' parts were in the ensemble for a Book of Mormon tour and 2/3 secondary roles in San Diego based musicals. That's nothing close to the level of those who get an invite to the globes.

He's there because he's famous for his videos.

He was never a "Broadway star" even if he identified as one.
