Kournikova sues parents over Miami home

Ah ha! I stand corrected. How old was Mel when he moved? In other words, had he already developed his native accent (be it American or Aussie) when he was transplanted?

Too many pics of guys on this thread. Unacceptable.

Yes, what the heck happened while I was out..

All right, all right. Calm down. I am quite straight.

I don't care for Kornikova because she is just a cute girl who works it hard for the camera. Her good looks are posed, not natural. And her eyes are sunken.

Most -- no, all -- female entertainers who are "good looking" these days have no elegance. Give me the classy sophistication of Liz Taylor, or Lauren Bacall or the exquisite beauty of Natalie Woods or Grace Kelly.

Face it, today they all look and act like sluts (Beyonce, Cherize, J-Lo, Halle) -- I see more T & A on the red carpet at any award show than in the porn flicks I used to see in college. Or they are downright ugly (Julia Roberts, Helen Hunt, Nicole Kidman, J-Lo).

Maybe I am too old-fashioned.

The parents' attorney countered it was always understood the family would share the house equally, since they "gave up everything they have for her tennis career."

Translated to..."Quit working to use and exploit their daughter for all the money they could force her to earn for them".

Mel was the 6th of 11 kids, born in 1956. My guess is that he had older brothers that Hutton was trying to keep out of the war and the family moved sometime before he got to HS. Mel was still not old enough to be drafted in 1973. His Aussie accent in his early films like Gallipoli and Mad Max is very thick.

Nope. Not buying it.

The thing that makes Kournikova so hot is the fact that it's not posed. We get to see her all the time when she's not posing, i.e. in the most unflattering light possible, and she still looks great:

Maybe I am too old-fashioned.

Or too HOMO.

Just joking, of course. Taste is such a subjective thing---it's fun to riff on it here on these FR "Anna" threads . . . or the Ann Coulter threads (now there's a mutt).

[sharktrager]

Charlize looks like a slut?

Sorry, but she carries herself with more grace than Hepburn ever though of having.

[presidio9]

Ann Coulter is great, but you are you seriously comparing her to Kournikova in the looks department? FAG!

[m87339]

To each his own.

I just don't care for her - cute, thats about it -- but different looks attact different people.

But its a fun thread here.

[m87339]

or the Ann Coulter threads (now there's a mutt).

LOL! There are some AMs that would Ban you for saying that. But AC needs to eat some serious pork products or something! She's almost as skeleton-like as Maria Shriver!

She could be good-looking but she needs some work.

[sharktrager]

Big difference between taste and saying someone acts like a slut.

[cyborg]

British edition Glamour did a side-by-side comparison and YES they all do look alike.

[cyborg]

LOL!!!! Ann Coulter needs a little fat on her bones though.

[m87339]

Big difference between taste and saying someone acts like a slut.

No slut here

Res ipsa loquater, baby.

[cyborg]

He's disgusting (and not for his mole either).

[m87339]

British edition Glamour did a side-by-side comparison and YES they all do look alike.

LOL! I'd love to see that.

[cyborg]

Then they did another piece talking about Beyonce ripping off J.Lo's looks. They did a side-by-side photo comparison and I was shocked *LOL* Right down to the skin tone and who's butt is more round,etc. Weird.

[presidio9]

A graceful lady exits a vehicle without exposing herself.

(not that I'm complaining...)

[Flightdeck]

my wife doesn't see what I see in Charlize. And then we get into an argument...
