A Little Dab Will Do You ... or a HUGE GLOB?  | | | | I came across this article on America Online and found it fascinating! Some of the “stars” many of us admire for being raving beauties are truly homely without their daily fix of makeup. Scroll through the images and see for yourself. I don’t know if Academy Awards are given for makeup artists, but they should be if an artist can transform these plain Janes into gorgeous women. http://tuvida.aol.com/mod... Among those shown are: Jennifer Garner, Katherine Heigl (extremely disappointing), Drew Barrymore, Alicia Silverstone, Jennifer Lopez, Eva Longoria (a REAL disappointment), Penelope Cruz (so bad), Jessica Alba, Salma Hayek, Katie Holmes (Cruise could do better), Hillary Duff, and looking as ugly as sin, onscreen beauty Goldie Hawn. Many more are shown, but I’ve never heard of many of them. Memo to self: That’s one great thing about being a man. What you see is what you get … always. © 2008 RJScott | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| | "Maybe if these women had let people see their natural beauty instead of their fake beauty, we would not say ugh when they are in their natural form." Exactly! But if we, as women, continue to listen to the ones who say we NEED all that fake stuff, then we are the ones that are lacking in brains as well as 'beauty'. The majority of it is toxic to us, the skin being the largest organ of the body. All that stuff seeping into ones skin must then be processed by ones liver. Ever looked into the many many types of liver disease that are ravaging the populace? Let's just task our internal organs to the max, die young and leave a BEE-YOU-TI-FUL corpse! NOT ME! I WILL grown old with grace and dignity and in my natural state! ;) If the media don't like it they can kiss my ample un-anorexic buttocks! LOL! | | | | melissaruth1 (3520)

| | "Memo to self: That’s one great thing about being a man. What you see is what you get … always." And such is our shame as women that we feel forced to uphold these ridiculous standards and stereotypes. The media wins again. Personally, I see great great beauty, strength, charm, and light shining from many of those unpainted faces. I wish that others could see what I see and then not feel 'less than perfect' by the standards of today. Honey, Goldie is 62, what DOES one expect? Women age too. That page should be banned or at the least rewritten to CELEBRATE bare-faced beauty! If we, as women, didn't have to listen to this kind of hype we could grow old with grace, dignity and pride in ourselves! For shame on them!. The comments were demeaning and degrading and I would, personally, give the writer a swift kick in the gonads. Writhing on the floor for a bit would serve him well! Ha ha! Touche' Sadly men are also starting to 'paint up', now there's a scary thought!! I shudder when I see it! | | | | | | | rjscott (3069)

| | Reminds of Brad Paisley's song, "I'm Still a Guy": "These days there's dudes getting’ facials Manicured, waxed, and Botoxed With deep spray-on tans and creamy lotiony hands You can't grip a tackle box Yeah with all of these men linin’ up to get neutered And headin’ out to be feminized But I don't highlight my hair, I've still got a pair Yeah honey, I'm still a guy Oh, my eyebrows ain't plucked, there's a gun in my truck Oh thank God I'm still a guy" Do you have a gun in your truck Rj? lol That would be America's version of a REAL guy. Frankly I think that sucks! LOL Give me a guy with a little polish and class any day. I think Irish makes a very good point. Women without makeup are just a beautiful because it's not really the PAINT that defines a real woman, but the heart that beats inside. If you rj are disappointed in the unpainted vision, then I fear for the depth of your soul. Shallow water there my friend? | | | | Irishfrndly65 (8534)

| | Hell Spark, I don't even have a truck. I drive a polished Buick Century. I guess my disappointment in the unpainted version comes from the fact that I've only seen the painted versions on the screen and on TV. Then I land on this page that reminds me that what I've been seeing all along isn't the real thing. Sure, I was disappointed to see them "in the raw," so to say. That doesn't mean that women who don't wear makeup are not beautiful. Most likely with makeup they'd be glamourously beautiful. This is the version the gals in the package have displayed over the years. It doesn't take a shallow person to notice the difference between the two versions. Kinda reminds me of a joke I heard many years ago. This guy marries the girl of his dreams. On their wedding night as she's getting ready to crawl into bed, she stands at the dresser, removes her makeup. Then off come the false eyelashes. Next, her teeth plop into a fizzing glass. As she begins to twist her right arm with her left (the right arm was artificial), her new hubby yells to her, "Yo! When you get to the part I'm interested in, just toss it over here!" Nah, my soul is deeper than that, but you must admit that when you compare the pictures, there's little chance the "makeupless" version would probably never get a role in a film. | | | | sparkofinsanity (3868)

| | You stole my joke rj! LOL I've been telling that one for years. It's one of the few I can actually remember! LOL Glad to know your waters run deeper than it sounded. And I can certainly identify with disappointment between pictures and reality! The first time I met a celebrity up close and personal (doing publicity photos) the first words out of my mouth were "Sh*t, Hollywood magic does you more justice than you deserve!"I got fired.*sigh* | | | | Irishfrndly65 (8534)

| | Oh yes, definately, see above post. Shining from the lovely eyes of Doris, I can see she is ungoverned by 'mans' opinion of what she should look and be like. I still feel sorry for those who crave the 'limelight' so much that they seek such a plastic standard of being and thus place themselves in subjection to a no longer adoring public as they age and can no longer live up to that same standard. I hope and pray someday to be as lovely as Doris. | | | | | | | Free Wedding Planner Book Join 1-800-Registry today! Free 160-Page Wedding Planner 1800Registry.com | add comment | | | |
