LOS ANGELES—Condemning what they described as the website’s exploitative practice of reducing a human being’s worth to a single physical characteristic, critics took aim this week at the controversial new website WikiHead, which rates celebrities solely on the basis of their facial features and hair. “Ew, it’s just a whole website for perverts who are obsessed with how people’s heads look?” said Vera Perkins, a 29-year-old Cleveland resident and internet user, sharing her disgust with the increasingly popular website and its dedication to a niche fetish that focuses on a famous actress or pop star’s bone structure, skin smoothness, and hairline. “Maybe I shouldn’t kink-shame, but it creeps me out to know there are weirdos who actually get off on that kind of thing. People go through hundreds of hours of movies and TV shows looking for a moment when you see Emma Stone or Hailee Steinfeld’s head—even for just a second—and then post zoomed-in stills so everyone can get a good look at their eyes, nose, and cheekbones. It’s so bizarre. I’ve never thought of heads that way at all.” At press time, Perkins acknowledged she was considering whether it might be worth swallowing her pride and posting pictures of her own head online to earn a little extra cash.
