Paris
Paris
Paris is a fool for love. And when we say fool, we mean fool. This super sexy prince of Troy is most famous for igniting the devastating Trojan War—over a girl. To be fair, she was the most eye-poppingly gorgeous woman in the world: Helen. Aphrodite had promised Helen to Paris after he awarded the goddess of love first place in a beauty contest with Hera and Athena. The only trouble was that Aphrodite never bothered to clear her little gift with Menelaus, who just so happened to be Helen's husband and the king of a militant Greek city named Sparta. Next thing you know, an army of particularly angry Greeks was landing on the shores of Troy. Ten years later, Paris was dead and his hometown was in ruins—all for the sake of a pretty face.
