Hot Stars Who Really Have That Sexy-Squint Thing Down

When Chris Hemsworth was named People's Sexiest Man Alive last year, he joked that being sexy involves "squinting at the essential time" — and although he was kidding, there may be something to his theory. Over the years, handsome stars like Chris Pratt, Idris Elba, and Brad Pitt have flashed squinty looks on the red carpet, and we can't help but notice that the sexy squint is definitely a thing. Sure, in some cases they narrowed their eyes because of sunlight or the flash of the cameras, but other times, it looks like they may have just been posing. Take a look at these pictures of some of Hollywood's hot guys to investigate: are they even hotter when they squint?
