If we were to use Gaston we'd want to at least show him doing evil or at least threatening stuff:

^ I think this does need the hot person doing something bad (preferably to a non-hot person), but in case we want to diversify — Gaston's already used on Ugly Hero, Good-Looking Villain.

I wanted to find something with Regina being mean but I lost my copy of the movie. So, I am unsure if these work but they are worth a try:

[up] The bad part is hard to tell from the poster alone in that one personally. That said it is better than mine is 8 at least due to Jeckyl and Hyde being so a well-known. So, [tup] 10 pending other suggestions.

Honestly my favorites are the Mean Girls examples. The Hekyll and Hype pic is pretty weak, especially since it looks like the women are reacting to the face opposite to them (ie. the screaming women are looking at his uglier half and the sexy women are looking at his better half), and hunky Satan is a little weak on the "bad" since the only thing getting across his evil is the fact that it's Satan and his Evil Wings, which out of context could look like antihero wings. The Mean Girls examples work for me since the concept of the Alpha Bitch is often related to this trope.

Koichi really steals? No dignity.

I really don't see bad in either of the Mean Girls images. I just see "mean" but not "evil". I know the trope covers that but I'd prefer it to cover evil.

So I can't think of anything right now... meh.

[up] I mean ([lol]) I don't see the problem with going with just a mean but beautiful character. This trope covers mean just as much as evil and I feel like 8.2. gets the point across fine. But then again, I like all of the suggestions personally. So, I will be happy either way.
