Yeah but Richie is a good looking guy too, and I don't think it wouldn't make much difference, because it's your character and how you act which is most important. The reason why quite a few singers become actors, Roger Daltery, Mich Jagger, JBJ, etc is because they are acting on stage while playing live. They are performing for someone elses entertainment and a good singer should be able to entertain an audience, so can also do so on TV screens I think.

Now ask youself this....... If Steven Tyler looked like Joe Perry and Perry looked like Tyler, how many movies would Tyler have made? I can imagine a lot, because Perry is a real cool looking guy. I do think the looks count, and maybe that's why Tyler hasn't started to do movies, but I'm sure he has the talent.

Hope this makes sense, I'm still nursing a hangover.
