In the context of online communities like "looksmaxxing" or "PSL" (which stands for Philly, Sloth, and Lookism—the original forums where these metrics were developed), a PSL rating refers to a specific scale used to evaluate facial attractiveness based on perceived "scientific" facial harmony and aesthetics.
The scale typically ranges from 1 to 8, where a 5 is considered "conventionally average" and an 8 represents a "supermodel" or "god-tier" level of facial harmony.
Colbie Caillat’s Perceived Rating
There is no "official" or widely cited PSL rating for Colbie Caillat in the most prominent looksmaxxing databases.
However, based on the general criteria used by these communities (such as facial symmetry, bone structure, and eye shape), discussions often categorize her as follows:
Conventional Rating: Most general audiences view her as very attractive, often citing her "natural" and "girl-next-door" aesthetic, which she notably championed in her music video for "Try."
PSL Interpretation: In the strict, often harsh world of PSL ratings, she is frequently viewed as a 5.5 to 6.0.
Pros: Good facial symmetry, healthy skin, and clear "harmonic" features.
Cons (from a PSL perspective): She lacks the "exaggerated" bone structure (like highly prominent hollow cheeks or extreme "hunter" eyes) that the PSL scale requires for the 7+ range.
Important Context on "PSL"
It’s worth noting that the PSL scale is largely subjective and originated in niche internet subcultures (often associated with "incel" forums) that use rigid, sometimes controversial standards for beauty.
Colbie Caillat herself has spoken out extensively against these types of rigid beauty standards. Her song "Try" was specifically written to protest the pressure women feel to achieve a "Photoshopped" or "perfect" appearance, encouraging fans to embrace their natural selves instead.
Would you like me to look into the specific facial "tiers" used in the PSL scale to see how they define those different point ranges?
