Who the Most Beautiful People in the World Are, According to Science
People often debate who the most beautiful women and men in the world are, and even though tastes differ, there may be a mathematical way to find an answer to why people with certain features appear more appealing than others. When it comes to beauty, there’s a pattern that could be used to describe it — the golden ratio. The famous polymath, Leonardo da Vinci, used this number (whose constant value is Phi = 1.618) to decide a structure’s symmetry that captivates the human eye.
The golden ratio could be applied to determine the overall score of one’s aesthetic perfection, and here is a list of celebrities who scored the best results.
Women
5. Ariana Grande — 91.81%
Singer Ariana Grande has a desirable nose width and length, as well as a forehead and chin, and she scored an overall 91.81% in golden ratio points.
4. Beyoncé — 92.44%
Beyoncé has a desirable face shape, which, alone, has a score of 99.6%, and the overall results granted her 4th place.
3. Bella Hadid — 94.35%
Bella Hadid scored enough points to get third place. Like Zendaya, her distinctive features include the eye position and forehead, but also the chin, which, alone, scored 99.7% in golden ratio points.
2. Zendaya — 94.37%
The Euphoria actress came in second place with a score of 94.37%. Features like her eye position and forehead scored more than 95%.
1. Jodie Comer — 94.52%
Dr. Julian De Silva is a clinic surgeon who uses digital face mapping to compare how celebrities match up. He uses several features, such as the inside of the eyes to face width, eyes to mouth to the chin, head to height width, facial width to the inner eye, and more, in order to find the best score. When it comes to women, actress Jodie Comer scored the most points and is considered the most beautiful woman in the world, according to his findings.
Men
5. George Clooney — 89.91%
Time has left its mark on George Clooney’s face, but he still scored high and shows that he is a beautiful man despite aging, with 89.91% in golden ratio points.
4. Brad Pitt — 90.51%
Dr. Silva stated that the actor is aging well as he scored 4th place, but the feature that brought his score down was his nose shape.
3. Bradley Cooper — 91.08%
Bradley Cooper has appeared on the covers of different magazines and has often been referred to as one of the most handsome men in the world. He got a nice score as 3rd place mainly because of his eye position, lips, and chin.

The leading man in the drama series, The Witcher, came in second, and one of his most attractive features included his lips, which, alone, scored 97.1%. There is also a high matching ratio between his lips and nose and eye positioning.

Robert Pattinson got the title of the most handsome man, according to Dr. De Silva, with a winning score of 92.15%. The golden ratio score was pretty high when it comes to matching scores of the eye position and nose width and length.
