16 Ridiculously Photogenic People

The keys to being photogenic, according to some relatively unknown blogger I discovered using a simple Google search, are: raise eyebrows slightly, look above the camera, smile with your eyes, keep your tongue behind your teeth, and hide your double chin. I regret to inform my dedicated fans that after following all of these directives, my photos were not improved in the slightest. 

I have subsequently come to terms with the fact that, barring some form of expensive surgery — which, on my diminutive writer's salary, I cannot afford — I will continue to offend people with wildly mediocre photos, despite trying very hard to take better ones. It is, after all, an unfortunate burden that I wish on no one. I pray that all of you are blessed with great photo-genetics like the awesome looking people who made it onto this list.
