I do know The Rose came out in 1979 when THE DIVINE MS.MIDLER was at her lowest weight probably for her exceptional potrayal of an addict, but, NO, I do NOT think she looks like a guy, anyguy, especially Dee Snider from twisted sister. He is really unattractive in costume while Bette is then and now gorgeous(imo) truely.

It's funny because i never mentioned dee snider! How did you know i was talking about him? I'm afraid your answer just proves my point!

reply

dee snider is the guy in twisted sister...which you mentioned in your original post. so much for proving your point

reply

um..

currently there are five 'guys' in twisted sister

Dee Snider
Eddie "Fingers" Ojeda
Jay Jay French
Mark "The Animal" Mendoza
A. J. Pero

since i never mentioned,in my original post,which one i was referring to,it could have been anyone...

...and you're an uneducated idiot.

I thought the same thing, that she looked like Dee Snider, which is the only guy you could be referring to since he is the frontman of Twisted Sister. But it's just an unfortunate, fleeting comparison because Bette really looks great in the film. It's her hair that does it.

reply

I couldn't see much similarity. The guy in twisted sister looks somewhat feminine.

You guys are mean. I like Bette. She was amazing in this film.

Bette might be gorgeous, but she isn't as beautiful as Barbra Streisand. That woman is like butter. I keep hoping she will do a nude scene (finally) in her next film. I think the world has waited long enough...

I thought the simiarity between her and Courtney Love was uncanny.

reply

mek2, i couldn't agree with you more. Great minds DO think alike.

reply

Hahaha, I'm watching the movie for the firsst time, and couldn't help but think that when she was singing with the drag queens...

reply

We're not going to take you making these comparisons between Bette Milder and Dee Snider of Twisted Sister.

No! We're not going to take it!

I thought that they could pass for siblings. I don't think that Bette Midler looks like a man or that Dee Snider looks like a woman, but they bear enough similarities with their hair and facial features to pass as relatives. Also, Bette has a great pair of boobs so there's something that she definitely has over the great Mr. Snider.

I just got done seeing the film for the first time and I kept thinking: "She looks like Dee Snider from Twisted Sister." No offense to Bette, though; she looks really good in this movie, not that I was ever attracted to her. It's just that there's a strong resemblance to Dee of Twisted Sister.
