I'm sorry your life is so hard.  I mean, working people everywhere should really think about how awful it is that you make millions because you're pretty.  I'm sure the girl at the Taco Bell counter feels lucky she didn't 'win a genetic lottery'.

Srsly, you dope.  You don't think regular women (or men, for that matter) aren't physically insecure?  Well guess what, cutie pie, there's a whole lot of 'em who're also insecure about other matters.  Stuff like feeding and clothing themselves or their kids - stuff you're not worried about at all.  Shut up.

By your emotional reaction it seems you hate pretty girls.

I just hate people that have all sorts of an easy life and then whine about it.  She didn't think even a little bit about the fact that there's millions of people who have the same problems she does - with none of the advantages.

I understand what you are saying, but that would mean that people with problems in the US, for example, shouldn't be complaining cause they have it way better than say people in Nigeria.

Kinda with the dog here.  There's always someone that's worse off, so either everyone should shut their mouth and not complain, or everyone gets to complain.

Sides, it's a human interest article.  It exists solely because people want to know what people like her think and feel.  The consumers are at least as much to blame for pointless articles like that as the people being interviewed for them.  Or you got something against people making a living?

True. Someone always has it worse. That doesn't mean you can't complain about whatever bothers you.

Surprisingly enough, I agree with EE & the "ironic" canine. It would seem that the Mayans were only off by about five weeks.

I just like pretty boys.

There's a difference between "can" and "should."

Sure there is.

But there's also a difference between "should", "shouldn't" and "no judgement/value neutral".

Why?
What shallow, insecure, doltish riff-raff would care what some celebrity meathead thinks about... anything?

The people what care about that crap are more puke-inducing than the actual celebrities what think they are more important than the "masses".

The kind that would purchase a supermarket tabloid and similar magazines because of the articles about celebrities.

At it's core, it's the same reason I have a couple of bookcases of fiction ranging from hard core Sci-Fi (hello Asimov!) to action-packed urban fantasy (hello Harrison!)1.

It's escapism.  Whether you find your escape by reading about real people that sound more interesting then yourself, fake people that sound more interesting then yourself, board games, going out and getting blind drunk, etc., it's all the same pursuit.

Why be so judgemental?  "If it neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg" and all that jazz.

1And that's not counting all the digital books I've gotten on my kindle in the last year.  Seriously, that thing is good (bad?) for my reading habit.

Because it promotes doltishness and sends false messages.

But I get your point.

Except it's not little. Think about it: people whose entire job consists of how they look are going to be insecure about how they look. Haven't you ever heard of "job security"? She doesn't have it. What if she gets in a car wreck tomorrow, and bashes her face on the windshield? You or I would (eventually) be able to go back to work with facial scarring; she wouldn't. In her case, worrying about how she looks isn't "shallow", it's worrying about her job. Y'know what I mean, Verne?

It's RH. Judgementalness is his thing.

Wait, you've seen RH's thing? Is there something you want to tell us? Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Insurance.  Srsly, dawg.  Odds are if she were disfigured in an accident she'd make more money than she does right now.  Ever hear of Lloyd's?  Point is, she's financially secure in a way most of us aren't and it's all cuz she's pretty.
