We seem to be watching a horror show of too thin Hollywood actresses. Or at least that would be the observation of anyone who even skims the tabloids, talk shows or People Magazine...

Fruity? I dunno, I don't get the vibe. Now fruity is that cute black dude with the big Colgate smile and the glasses who narrates that show about the five best whatever. He's just adorable!
Did you ever see the Inauguration Gown Exhibit at the Smithsonian? They have displayed the gowns worn by each first lady at her husband's inaugural ball. Nancy Reagan's dress is a 4. When we toured the Smithsonian with my daughter's Girl Scout Troop I seriously doubted that any of the girls (ages 10 thru 12) could have fit into the Reagan dress...it was painfully small looking. By contrast, Barbara Bush's dress looked 'normal' in size.
I too have to admit, I am also a BIG Alton Brown fan...I love the Food Network. I love Alton's humor in explaining the science of cooking.
Alton's got a quirky cute charismatic something going on there. Brainy yet goofy. I'd do something with the hair tho.
He's, in fact, married, and has at least one daughter, that I know of. Lives just "over the hill" from us in Napa, California.
I had a SERIOUS thing for Takeshi Kaga. The Chairman of Iron Chef. I even liked most of his clothes!
When he left the show, I stopped watching. They never showed enough of Kaga-san anyway.
Alton is sexy-cute. He'd be better with more hair tho.
I've never seen this dude before, but my first impression is that he can make a woman laugh.
That's gotten a lot of less-than-beefcakey guys laid throughout history.
Yes!
Thank you darlin'!
My needs are simple too...
Just seems they're simply hard to meet though ;)
If you liked him, how do you like the Chairman of the American version, Mark Dacascos? Think he's the nephew of Takeshi Kaga. Great looking plus he does back flips!
Good attitude. I always hesitate to ask men what they "do" for fear of being seen as a golddigger, but I know the only reason they started talking to me in the first palce is because they like the way I look..... so now I'll ask away. It's fair.
Not exactly.
I've read that the average American woman is 5'4" and weighs 140 pounds and the average model is 5'11" and weighs 117 pounds.
Just thought I'd throw that out there... ;)
True, but the key word is "model". Today's average non-model American woman is a 14.
By all means. You can't run away from biology - best that we all just embrace it and be who we are. And any man who gets upset about being asked by a woman what he does for a living is probably just sensitive about still having a paper route at age 46. ;)
Interesting! Probably true, but certainly looks larger than that in her old movies.
Look at lainie's post above...Marilyn Monroe was 5'5 1/2 and 140 lbs (at her heaviest). So, I guess that bears out that MM would be considered 'obese' by todays flights of fashion (ie., gay men who want to make women look like 12 year old boys). Marilyn would be, ahem, a size 14. I rest my case.
Oh I do also! I also love Paula Dean's show--- I guess cause that's the cooking I was raised on.
Wow...that is heartbreaking. I have to wonder what dymanic in her life (too much money, not enough attention from her adoptive parents growing up, a drug addiction, or just from hanging out w/Paris) could cause a young woman to self destruct like that.
