Wetlook World Forum

No-one immediately springs to mind. When you watch shows like Graham Norton or Conan O’Brien, it’s easy to be suckered in by a celebrity’s infectious personality, but before long you realise that you and they would be terribly incompatible.

Going on looks alone, the question becomes, who has the hair and body for it? I am not sure that I can say; celebrities tend to be too skinny!

Going by personality (and face!) … Cara Delevingne, Jessica Biel, Mila Kunis, Kate Beckinsale, Dr Alice Roberts … (There are indeed plenty of actresses who have never had their proper wetlook money shot, but I can’t remember who, off-hand — it’s not something I mentally catalogue.)

For me it’s not truly about the visuals, but about the scenario. Ever notice how many wetlook scenes end in sadness and pain, or are about a life and death struggle? Very seldom is such a scene ever consistently sweet and romantic, and rarely will the couple involved be happy at the end. Instead of being a fond memory for the characters, it’s a painful memory that will associate wetlook with misery for them. You’re also unlikely to watch a scene unfold that you can truly place yourself in, not as a lonely computer nerd at any rate. The girl’s not going to be a DnD geek, or the studious type … Opposites may attract, sure, but you soon realise that you’d never know how to handle such a mismatched personality.
