Well yes, musically there is a bit of a problem because they turned a little minuet by Bach from the Anna Magdalena book into 4/4 so they could get down and funky with it. But could you even find a more beautiful cellist? Let's try.
Here are a couple of Canadian cellists:

Some of these cellists have a kind of beauty that makes grown men cry and young men go bananas over them! Now, would you say your statement also applies to, say, Pablo Casals, or Rostropovich? ;-)
Years ago a friend of mine and I attended a recital by one of these beautiful young cellists. On our way out we ran into a violinist of our acquaintance--a very accomplished and seasoned violinist. We offered a critique of the recital which we had found to be rather lightweight. His response? "You were expecting maybe Rostropovich?"
