Is it more sad when someone beautiful dies?

Asked by LornaLove (10037points) October 10th, 2017

In general when media reports on the tragic death of a beautiful person it seems to be met with greater sadness? I say this because a lot of newspapers in the UK will have a comment section and many people commenting will say ‘How tragic such a young and beautiful person died’, or words to that effect.

Does the young and beautiful person have more to lose from dying than say an overweight and arbitrary looking person?
