Oklahoma Ranked Top Ten for Most Attractive People in the US
While the news about Oklahoma is usually less-than-appealing or flattering to us, here's something that won't make you cringe.
Oklahoma is one of the most attractive states in the country.
The Sooner State is officially ranked 7th nationwide, according to this rag. Taking into account things like how many residents have made the Sexiest (man/woman) Alive lists and pageant winners like Miss America 2007 Lauren Nelson.
It's quite the comeback story considering Oklahoma was ranked near the bottom in terms of attractive people just three years ago.
Why the sudden change?
The Yellowstone Effect
In the last couple of years, as the gritty and raunchy Yellowstone series has gained mass popularity across the country, people started to see the rural flyover portions of the country as untapped attractive gold.
At the moment, the rock-hard jaws of beauty icons like Oklahoma native Brad Pitt pale in comparison to the bearded roughneck qualities and softer silhouettes like that of Yellowstone's Cole Hauser.
Honestly, it's like Oklahoma woke up in style this year, and it'll probably stay that way until the new wears off the country/cowboy style or the country gets a look at the permed mullets on all of our youth.
While skin-deep things like this never last long, we'll enjoy it while we can. We're Oklahoma and we're pretty today.
