today31 December 2020

Background

As toxic as it is to pit people against each other and judge them based on their appearance (thus setting a ‘standard’ of beauty), many still anticipate the release of lists like “Sexiest Person of The Year” (which is Micheal B. Jordan for 2020, just FYI).  One such list is by TC Candler, who announces the “Most Handsome ” and “Most Beautiful” faces from around the world on a yearly basis. Since 1990, TC Candler has been putting this list together alongside The Independent Critics. Today, they’ve released the results for 2020’s edition of the “Most Handsome Face” – and just like everything else in 2020 so far, the winner may come as an unexpected surprise.

 

The winner this year, is this guy:

 

 

Now, if you don’t recognise him – topping the list for the “Most Handsome Face” of 2020 is Swedish YouTuber Felix “PewDiePie” Kjellberg. Kjellberg – better known as PewDiePie – was the most-subscribed on YouTube in 2013 and while he doesn’t currently hold the title, his channel still has over 108 million subscribers and has received over 26 billion views. He’s considered an OG in the YouTube community, being named one of the world’s 100 most influential people by TIME in 2016. Of course, if you haven’t seen PewDiePie recently, you may only remember him from his early days on YouTube.

 

Well, this is him now…

While others cannot get over the fact that he’s beat some of the most influential musicians, actors and personalities in the world. Amongst those nominated this year were Shawn Mendes, Henry Cavill, Jason Momoa, Zayn Malik, David Beckham, BTS stars V and Jungkook, NCT’s Mark, Lee Min Ho, Gong Yoo, Pierce Brosnan, Daniel Craig and many, many, many more.

 

 

Whether or not people agree with his win, he’s got the title in the bag so congratulations PewDiePie!

 

Maybe we should instead focus on one Twitter user’s more… serious… question:
