    Wow, I never realized you'd take this so personally! In case you didn't realize it, the "idiot" comment was just meant as good-humored ribbing, and it's only when you got so insulted sounding that I decided to be a bit more frank about what got me going in the first place -- and, regardless of how much you seem to be unprepared to accept this, it is nothing more or less that the dog-show style of your remarks, reducing aesthetic judgement down to a comparision of individual physical attributes to some standard each failed -- in your opinion -- to achieve.



    It's not that I consider it horrendous to judge a model aesthetically... it's that I consider your approach to making a supposedly aesthetic judgement to come off sounding like you're running down a checklist, grading a set of attributes, and coming up with a "beauty score" -- that comes off as very crass to me, and I don't think I'm the only one who feels that way.



    But, go ahead, keep coming up with all of the things you just know this must really be about, other than what I'm saying it's about.

    Giselle sucks. She's not that hot, and she seems like a stuck-up bitch. Apple is supposed to be shedding their "snobbish" image, so I hope this campaign doesn't try to associate the Mac with a useless runway model. If anything, the caption under Giselle should read "Beauty" and the caption under the Mac should read "Beauty + Brains."

    I like that.



    And I agree that she looks dull and arrogant.

    What? How dare you? Shetline will have your head for this. She's the most beautiful girl in the world, don't you know? He'll tell you that every time. Well, every time he's not mentioning his dog show obsession.

    She starred in the 2004 film "Taxi"<snip>



    And she was quite good, too! I was very surprised... there is definitely something there besides looks. I won't be surprised to see her again, if she can get the accent down.

    If you like stringbeans, that's your taste. But you reveal nothing except your own stupidity if you think only with your balls.




    Stringbeans make good fashion models because of the "prototype" nature of most of the clothes they have to put on. It ends up usually making them look normal. Stringbeans make bad swimsuit models, though, or for that matter lingerie models.

    You must be blind and out of your mind.

    She's not hot? are you crazy?



    Plus, do you know her? have you heard her somewhere? how do you assume she's a bitch?



    I am not her fan, but I have met her personally and she's very cool and very feet on the ground for somebody that famous.

    wow people are really saying she's not hot? i'd really like to see the caliber of women you guys date.



    seriously, post a goddamn link to your girlfriends/wifes myspace. come on, cuz you know she has one.....





    i agree with the legs being skinny and all but she's a model. let me tell you if you went and found pics of her a few years back before she went universal goddess she was a lot thicker.





    models just need to be skinny, thats the industry.

    Thanks Elixir,



    I love when people say that she's not hot. Most of these folks would never have a chance to date somebody like her. So they say she's not hot because they THINK they have hotter wives or girlfriends. hahahaha.



    Geekdreams we are waiting for your girlfriend picts!

    Ha Ha, that's the whole reason I did track (shotput/discus) too, way back 10 years ago when I was in HS.



    I was terrible, but who cares! My events would be done in the first hour and then you get to spend the next two hours watching pretty girls run around in tiny little shorts.

    Women's Beach Volleyball was invented by a marketing genius.

    So your standard of what a woman is supposed to look like applies to everyone?

    not at all.



    the beauty is on the eye of the beholder.



    But to somebody to say that Gisele is sucks and a bitch, is definately out of proportion.

    I agreed that people might find her maybe skinny or whatever. but to say that she is sucks, give me a break!

    If she was really that bad, she would not be one of the most famous models for so long.
