Interesting contribution to psychology, since unknown faces are usually considered most attractive when they are average but... If you consider a small (or not so small) social group with a common knowledge of a person considered as attractive, then you may find that people attribute attractiveness with the _non-average_ merits displayed by that person - that contradicts the theory that attractiveness with be _just_ average! It is also sound to say that recognizable people that evoke a positive reaction may feed the "attractiveness" recognition loop stronger... BTW Which bright statistician discovers what is flawed in both the prevalent "averaging" theory and the research mentioned in a link? Hint: look for difference between "alien" or "unknown" faces, and faces of those that are known - and thus whose attractiveness matters more to us.
