If it's all in the brows (opens in new tab), is everything we've ever wanted to know about our celebrity crushes written on their faces? We asked face-reading expert Priya Sher (opens in new tab) to size up Hollywood's leading men going off their arches alone. These readings are DEAD ON.

1/16

George Clooney

The Brow Type: Thick and Angled.

The Reading: "Energetic, kind, generous, caring, and stands up for what he believes in—but when it comes to personal problems, he's private. He also has high sexual energy. If he wasn't an actor, he could have been a successful politician."

2/16

Pharrell

The Brow Type: Thin and Curved.

The Reading: "A dreamer who believes in the impossible. If he wasn't an artist, he would have been great working with children and the elderly."

3/16

Benedict Cumberbatch

The Brow Type: Thick and Angular.

The Reading: "Confident, assertive, and stubborn. If he wasn't an actor, he could have been suited to a demanding career as a policeman or in the army."

4/16

James Franco

The Brow Type: Thick and Straight.

The Reading: "Caring, generous, and good sexual energy. He gets a lot of female attention, but has commitment issues."

5/16

Justin Timberlake

The Brow Type: Thick and Straight.

The Reading: "Confident, assertive, generous, and kind. But he can also be very stubborn and controlling."

6/16

Jamie Foxx

The Brow Type: Thin and Curved.

The Reading: "Very generous and in touch with his spiritual side."

7/16

Brad Pitt

The Brow Type: Thin and Angular.

The Reading: "Helpful, sensitive, and struggles with making a decision—but once he's made one, he perseveres. Also, women find men with this particular shape of eyebrows very attractive."

8/16

Bradley Cooper

The Brow Type: Thick, Curved, and Slightly Disproportionate.

The Reading: "Difficult to maintain a relationship—intense and regimented. Also looks too closely at things so misses opportunities. Good sex drive."

9/16

Will Smith

The Brow Type: Thin and Curved.

The Reading: "Conscientious, powerful, and could be a great leader or politician."

10/16

Robert Pattinson

The Brow Type: Thick and Straight. Plus, Shiny Texture.

The Reading: "He has strong sexual energy and finds relationships difficult to maintain as he's too sensitive and gets hurt easily. He pays too much attention to the small details so sometimes misses the bigger picture."

11/16

Eddie Redmayne

The Brow Type: Thin and Straight.

The Reading: "Very sensitive and caring. He's happy to rely on his girlfriend or wife to make important life decisions."

12/16

Jay Z

The Brow Type: Thick and Curved.

The Reading: "Private, sensitive, and caring. Family is very important."

13/16

Leonardo Dicaprio

The Brow Type: Thick and Curved.

The Reading: "He's an only child (revealed by the short length of eyebrow) who's very generous with his time and money. He has a high sex drive, but is not easily pleased. He stands up for what he believes in, even if that means standing alone."

14/16

Ryan Gosling

The Brow Type: Thick and Angular.

The Reading: "He has a fragile heart, is in touch with his feminine side, and very caring and considerate."

15/16

Johnny Depp

The Brow Type: Think and Straight.

The Reading: "In touch with his spiritual side, as well as assertive and confident."

16/16

Jared Leto

The Brow Type: Thick and Curved.

The Reading: "His thick eyebrows are out of proportion with his face. He's not short of admirers, but finds it difficult to maintain relationships because his eyebrows are out of balance."
