<p>I think the issue here is not about “pretty”. It’s about weight and being a matching castable package. Yes, there are plenty of people who are not standard pretty or do not have a standard weight. However, out of all of those are maybe 5 who really made it to the top. Compared to the thousands who are also pretty good and worked very hard to try and get anywhere - but don’t possess the star quality of the named ladies above. Star quality is a very rare thing, and if you have a one in a million voice then you don’t need to look like a super model (see Ella Fitzgerald for another example). I was talking about the “normal” MT casting that goes on professionally, working actors that make a living doing MT and other related performing work - but never become million dollar earning stars whose popularity outlast their own lifetime. That said, nothing wrong with aiming for the top if you think you have what it takes.</p>
