Punk, glam, and goth hit their peak decades ago, but a few rocker dudes still sport makeup today. There's Gerard Way from the band My Chemical Romance, who has worn everything from black to purple to red eye makeup. Then there's Pete Wentz who loves guyliner so much that he created his own line of makeup (kidding — sheesh)! Last but not least is former teen heartthrob Jared Leto, who wears creamy metallic eyeshadow, liner, mascara, and even stripes of bright-pink lipstick on his cheeks.
These guys have a style that's all their own, but I gotta say, it reminds me of angsty dudes I knew in high school — so it isn't exactly the sexiest look to me personally. Out of these three rebel rockers, who do you think pulls the look off best?

PETE WENTZ IS SO CUTE LIKE THAT. MY BOYFRIEND DOES EITHER RED EYELINER OR THE DARK RIMMED EYES WHEN HE HAS A SHOW. HE PLAYS ROCK SO WHATEVER. LOL. I LOVE IT!
1Hmmm Pete. Jared tend sto go waaaaaaaaaaay overboard. But I love when the rocker guys wear a little liner, hellooooooooo look at STP.
2yuck, pretensious posers.
I'm taking any guy from glam 70's than those "rockers". :vomit:
3ewww, it's kind of gross and dirty. :/
4I'm not a fan of men and makeup but at least Pete's is more subtle then the rest.
5i like my guys strong and in control, and there's something really 'oh, poor me, i'm so tortured' about guys with make up.
6so not masculine...
do not like at all.
They all look ugly and disgusting!
7I don't like the whole guy in make-up look but since I had to choose between the 3 I picked Pete. He looks almost natural and the first one looks like he is about to drop dead.
8men + make-up = NOT ATTRACTIVE
9Gross....men should not wear makeup. Talk about a turnoff
10Yeah, I'm with you, Bleached...there is NOTHING more unattractive to me than a man in makeup. Blech.
11Jordan Catalano, of course! LOL
12Jared Leto, but I profoundly hate the guy liner thing. Pete Wentz annoys the hell out of me because of that (well, and other reasons too).
13Hmm, Gerard Way kind of got rid of that whole look a couple of years ago Bella. He's looking much more hotter these days.
Either way, I prefer Pete. Boys in eyeliner always make my knees a little bit weak!
14yuck. none
15None
16the only man who can wear makeup is david bowie. end of discussion.
17Guyliner only looks good when the rest of their look is manly. Makeup on these lame emo guys just makes them look like they wish they were girls
18I'm so used to seeing Pete in his guyliner that I don't even think twice about it. He's still not rocking it but he's definitely the best.
19I chose I can't decide becuse I think they all look ridiculous. Men should not wear makeup.
20IMO, Jared Leto can do now wrong.
21I voted for Pete, of the 3 he looks the best.
I usually find Gerard good looking however the photo above is not a good look on him. I do not usually recommend sitting in the sun however it could use a bit; he is looking a little dead in that pic. He should stick to black liner, red is creepy. Needs a haircut too.

Sorry for the double-post. Pressed "enter" once to many times,lol.
24Pete DEFNITITELY, followed by Jered. Gerard Way looks just . . . uggh nasty corpse bride-looking in that picture.
That being said, I would definitely prefer my guys looking au naturale.
25How about Panic at the Disco circa "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out"? Anyone? But they really should have had a better photo of Gerard Way, like a more recent, less freakish one
26My boyfriend is a rock musician too, but he does not wear make up. I'm not into that. I couldn't date a guy that wore more make up than me.
27I love Gerard Way no matter what he looks like.
28I think they all look equally lame!
29ew, they're all disgusting and make horrible music.
30i vote for david bowie. but i have a soft spot for adam ant and prince in their makeup haydays.. oh wait boy george and robert smith too. i think i'm in full on flashback mode now.
31They all look ridiculous. Give me classic Bowie any day.
32Jared has taken the makeup thing to the next level...it's too womanly for me!! "Creamy metallic eyeshadow, liner, mascara, and even stripes of bright-pink lipstick on his cheeks"??? NO NO NO NO!!!
33gerard way looks retarded with that red eye liner!
34i mean none of them look great but i guess the one that looks o.k. is Pete wentz
Gerard Way but only because both Pete and Jared look like girly men. I usually like Leto's look but not this time.
35I'm torn on this one. On one hand, the makeup seems kinda feminine,
36which I don't really like. On the other hand, I find guys with longish hair and edgy clothes so freakin sexy. I guess I'd like to see them without the makeup. Also, I like classic rock better than emo.
Not anyone of them, too scary for me. But Pete, he still looks sweet with those make up.
37I choose Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow with his pirate makeup ^_^
38Give me Dave Gahan from Depeche Mode anyday. Now THERE is a guy who wears makeup well! As for the above selection, I say no go.
39Scott Weiland set the bar for men in eyeliner.
40David Bowie set the bar for men in makeup.
No one can ever hope to come close!
None. It looks AWFUL.
41I can't believe I'm 43 and way more open-minded about this than most of you younger girls are!
42The MCR dude has done it the best in the sense that it looks creepy and not girly.
43i'm not crazy about any of them. not a big make up on guys kind of gal.
44Where is the "I don't like guyliner" option?
45I'm on Team Bowie.
These guys just look silly. Especially Jared Leto. Seriously. Gag.
46This is so rock/emo played the f*^k out already.
IMO, the only person I can deal seeing with makeup is Manson.
The newbies/young ones ... hell even the old ones like Nikki Sixx (and I love Motley Crue so not a hater or anything) need to stop it with the eyeliner/makeup, black hair and flat ironing thing already.
Its just trying way to hard and keeping with a stale played image.
47AND WHAT IS THAT JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS LOOK LETO IS DOING ANYWHO?
48okay last comment ... and when did making sure people notice you are wearing foundation become an add on to the eyeliner thing?
49let's be honest, Bowie tops them all.
