Prince William has been bestowed with a couple of new titles since the passing of his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, but there’s one title he can no longer lay claim to.
The royal heir has been dethroned by none other than action star Vin Diesel, who now holds the title of Hottest Bald Man of 2022, according to Reboot Online, an SEO agency based in London.
The American actor and producer snatched the title from Wills, who's held it for the last two years.
There was once a time when hair symbolised virility, strength and masculinity in men. Not this time. It all came down to science.
“We input a few photos of each celebrity into a computer vision algorithm, which was able to identify prominent features, otherwise known as facial ‘landmarks’,” Reboot said.
The Fast & Furious star came out tops after Reboot took into consideration the golden ratio, a theory which is used to explain what makes someone attractive, based on the proportions of their face, as well as their net worth and height. Public opinion on Twitter and how often the bald hotties were mentioned as "sexy" on the social platform were also taken into account.
But most importantly – what’s a bald head without a shine? The cranial shine of every celeb’s head on the list was also a contributing factor. Vin’s shiny top scored 563,65 candelas per square metre. This equates to his head reflecting light with 70,46% of the luminous intensity of a standard light bulb.
Vin scored high enough to land the top spot and was followed by actor Stanley Tucci in second, and S.W.A.T actor Shemar Moore who took third. Rapper Pitbull and Prince William rounded out the top five.
Surprisingly for some fans, Black Adam star Dwayne Johnson was in the bottom half of the list.
“If there’s one thing Dwayne doesn’t have to worry about, it’s his height – he’s the tallest celebrity in the top 10, at 1,96 meters,” Reboot said on their site.
