Okay, I'm gonna be really mean and ask you


Is there ANYONE here who thinks Stella is just downright ugly? I am shocked that people find her attractive. She has something very repulsive about her appearance. Besides that, her character has a *beep* personality, which makes her even less attractive to me.

I normally wouldn't post about someone's looks, but the actress has plenty of people who think she's amazing so if she read this she'd be fine.

Here's what I think it is: Her face is large, but her head isn't. Her features, while attractive, take up too much room on her head. And her neck is pencil thin. Kind of an alien look. Having said that, I still think she is very pretty.

She kinda looks like a hot guy who had a sex change,...even before Alex made the Justin bieber comment, I had said the same thing to my gf, so I'm glad I called that haha

She's average to me. I think the reason everyone finds her so hot, is because 90% of the rest of the cast is made up to look unattractive, so she looks like a beauty compared to them.

She is clearly not ugly, but I don't find her all that hot. She looks like every 20 something gay boy I see at the clubs to be honest.

reply

yes. She looks like Justin Bieber. Or he looks like her. Either way they are both ugly.

When I had seen pictures of her before the show I thought she was one of the most mind-blowingly beautiful women on the planet. However after watching her she has dwindled down to an average as her acting is physically uncomfortable to watch... what a dull, wooden and pointless character. I haven't seen her in any interviews or anything as herself so maybe if she had a modicum of personality I might find her attractive but Stella is a no!!

I'll bite, although, the fact that people find it necessary to offer irrelevant, unsolicited opinions on the appearance of women, actresses more so, is a sad reality in our society. I think some of you should flip through Naomi Wolf's The Beauty Myth, but I digress...

Her beauty is entrancing imho. So extraordinary that I found the scene where she said Piper (Taylor Schilling) had won the genetic lottery so incredulous and ridiculous. I think I've over-estimated average intelligence, because people seem to unquestionably believe that thin, leggy, and blonde is BEAUTY. Euro-centricism at its finest! Ruby Rose is smoldering, more than symmetrical, and thin to boot!

I found it refreshing that Black Cindy, Flaca, and I forget the other's name, examine colorism and the unchallenged belief that white women (esp blondes) are the most beautiful women. They come to a consensus that other races might see a slew of beauty (Grace Jones and Beyonce are polar opposites yet honorable mentions on the show).

Ruby Rose has predominantly made a career from her appearance. It is a two way street... if you don't want people to have an opinion on your appearance don't work as a model! If she didn't look the way she does there is no way she would have been cast on this show!

I agree her beauty is entrancing but her acting leaves a lot to be desired!

reply

I'm with you, she does very little for me.

reply

I don't see what all the hoopla was about. There are several other actresses on the show who surpass her not only by beauty but also acting skills.

I agree she has an attractive face but I don't care for the hair or tattoos. It's just not my thing. I also feel as a character I can't think of one way to describe her personality other than "there to create a love triangle." So it's not like she came off endearing.
