Billy Joel's Smudged Eyeliner

The evolution of gender norms has allowed men to explore new avenues of self-expression, including makeup, should they wish to embrace it. Venturing into uncharted territory, Billy Joel boldly embraced black eyeliner for a distinctive look, yet the result leaves us ambivalent.

The principal difficulty resides in the peculiar streak beneath his left eye, resembling the aftermath of a heartfelt cry (a perfectly human occurrence) left untended. This earns him a 3/10 on the "Eyes as Their Demise" scale.
