The Smolder Counts as Talent

Atom · refreshed Search related

In a ranking supposedly based on 'talent,' charisma and screen presence — literally the ability to smolder at a camera — earned The Rock a top-five spot. The exchange reframes talent away from craft and toward total package: athletic history, acting range, and an intangible magnetism that can't be taught. Whether that's a category error or a broader definition of talent is the actual interesting question.
