OK, so we all know we do it, we very quickly assess people when we see them... "Am I attracted to them or not?"
So here's my question; Why do you get a massive attraction to certain people in films or on TV that you know for a fact you wouldnt look twice at if they walked past you on the street???
Stupid question I know but it bugs me sometimes!!!

It can be a matter of context.

A lot of attractive stars you see are well made-up, well-lit, in good situations, i.e. entertainment, or films, and this adds to the 'feel-good' factor that kicks in.

You may well notice them in the street, but that, by definition, is transitory - a glance as you passed Cheryl Cole on the high street is different to seeing her in a three-minute pop video - change the scenario to fit your own favourites.
Plus, you also know they're loaded, or at least alot wealthier than yourself!

Or that could be just me being shallow.
I don't think so. Pics in particular are so airbrushed that you don't really know what you are looking at. I'm not at all into the celebrity scene so I'm probably not the best person to ask. It's when some of them open their mouths that I start to decide whether I like them or not - nothing to do with what their accents sound like, more if they have anything interesting to say.
because you think you like their character, when really you don't know them. you may think Brad Pitt is Mr Romantic, or Mr Tough Guy, or Action Man.. when he's just a man with a script.

okay, he looks pretty good to me.. but you get what I mean!
Most of the actors I've seen interviewed are as dull as ditchwater or thick, if they haven't a script to rely on.
I think the actress who plays Kylie in Corrie has a very sexy look.

Very strange.
from his acting alone I can only assume that brad pitt is a complete plank..

It just dumbfounds me every time it happens...
Perfect two examples are Matt Cardle in X Factor - I am not into X-Factor at all but I think Matt is very good looking. I know for a fact that I would not be attracted to him if he worked at my work or in a shop I shop in...
Also, Robert Pattinson - Totally not my type and never found him attractive until Twilight!!!
