Christina not beautiful?

REALLY?! I see people saying she's not attractive in this movie. If these people are male they could be gay (no judgement).
Im a straight guy and the only thing I could think about while watching this movie was how damn beautiful she was.
I understand people not thinking she is the most beautiful woman in the world, because everyone has different opinions in whats the most attractive attributes, but to say she is ugly is straight up an insane statement.
She is gorgeous as hell.

I suspect they're all jealous females who wish they looked that beautiful ;).

I think she's beautiful in this movie! :D

Perhaps you mean mesmerized?

You are SO WRONG.

I'm male. I like women. I DON'T think she is attractive - in fact, I found her to be VERY unattractive in this movie - so much so that it made the movie hard for me to watch.

Why don't you understand that some people will find a person attractive and other people won't ? You actually do bring this issue up in your post - but you seem to not understand that not everybody has the same taste.

I can only assume that you are on the left side of the IQ curve.

[–] Rybergare 12 years ago

I understand everyone has different taste but its really hard for me to imagine someone thinking shes UGLY. I mean I think Angelina Jolie is one of the most overrated women in the history of the world, but I dont think she's ugly or VERY unattractive. I just think Christina seems to be one of the girls people atleast find "ok".
What famous women do you find attractive? Just curious.

Very interesting question!

I’ve always tended to prefer women with rounder faces, and women with cuddly, fuller figures.

Growing up I liked Valerie Bertinelli

There are just SO many to choose from. I’ll try to pick some of them, and try to put the ones I prefer the most closer to the top. (Please excuse spelling mistakes)

And I almost always prefer actresses in their earliest roles. Too often Hollywood makes women give in to the pressure to become anorexic as they age.

(Sorry this is such a long list, but the only way I could really compile this list is to go through lists of beautiful woman and copy the names of those I agree with)

And sorry this is only a very partial list - but compiling this list has been EXHAUSTING -

Adrina Lima (although in some photos she is stunning – yet in others she looks ordinary or almost unrecognizable as herself)
Zooey Deschanel often looks REALLY cute
Mila Kunis
Kristen Bell
Salma Hayek
Charlize Theron
Elisha Cuthbert
Megan Fox
Eva Mendes
Catherine Zeta-Jones
Scarlett Johansson
Kiera Knightly (her face is often very cute – but she is too thin)
Gina Gershon
Halle Berry
Olivia Wilde
Penelope Cruz
Paz Vega
Mena Suvari
Kirsten Dunst

I didn’t set the order of these lists, but I agree that the following are attractive:
77. Christina Hendricks
71. Sofía Vergara
62. Vanessa Hudgens
61. Kristen Bell
60. Shakira
59. Amanda Bynes
55. Emma Roberts
54. Katharine McPhee
53. Amber Heard
52. Jordana Brewster
41. Zooey Deschanel
40. Miranda Kerr
39. Kate Upton
37. Jennifer Lopez
34. Elisha Cuthbert
32. Rihanna
29. Eva Mendes
28. Jessica Biel
26. Taylor Swift
24. Selena Gomez
17. Scarlett Johansson
16. Charlize Theron
15. Kristen Stewart
8 Megan Fox
7. Emma Stone
6. Olivia Wilde
4. Katy Perry
3. MIla Kunis
2. Olivia Munn

13 Cameron Diaz
20 Julie Christie
21 Jennifer Lopez
26 Sienna Miller
38 Liv Tyler
40 Liz Hurley
42 Jennifer Aniston
43 Helena Christensen
51 Mischa Barton
53 Kate Winslet
55 Rachel Weisz
62 Beyonce
73 Eva Longoria
79 Cate Blanchett
82 Vanessa Paradis
87 Juliette Binoche
89 Reese Witherspoon
97 Jessica Simpson
98 Patsy Kensit

I agree with prolly 80% of that list (some I dont know at all). Especially Katy Perry, Scarlett Johansson, Charlize Theron, Elisha Cuthbert, Megan Fox, Kristen Bell and Zooey Deschanel.
Our tastes are not that different. I do find Lady Gaga really attractive also though, which may be unusual.

[–] GrammarMatters 12 years ago

Oh no. Not Lady Gaga.

Again, there is just SOMETHING about her that I find REALLY, REALLY, REALLY unattractive. I'm not sure what it is. Maybe partly one aspect is that she just often seems to be very uncomfortable in her own skin, and insecure.

And I was being a bit lazy with the numbered lists. I just deleted those that I didn't know or didn't like from someone elses list - and Katy Perry sneaked onto that list. I sometimes find her to be reasonably OK, but often I find her to be quite plain and average.

He probably is on that left side of the bell curve. If you look up, I'll bet you'll see him.

Christina is incredibly hot. I dream of her.

[–] kayd89 11 years ago

Anyone who says she's not beautiful obviously just has a problem with her personally so they have to say negative comments about her appearance as well. I think Christina is pretty, not the most beautiful woman I've ever seen but she's definately not ugly.

[–] oakcourt 11 years ago

I think she looks lovely in this, that shade of blonde is much more flattering than her other. Never watched her as an actress before this but I do like her voice it was far superior to many of her peers'.

[–] atac57 11 years ago

I agree she looks great in this, she looks way better without the bright blonde hair and all the makeup. More natural looking.

[–] mapleleaf73 11 years ago

I always thought she was so hot....Pale white skin, red lips..Even as she gained some weight....But then I heard she was leakin something and I gave it up.

[–] daisyap 11 years ago

She is beautiful no matter what they say.

Seriously, no one said this yet?

[–] lilmssunshine_761 11 years ago

She was and is very beautiful.

[–] jeffreymkennedy 11 years ago

I agree wholeheartedly that she WAS a beautiful woman (and could be again if she truly wanted to be). She was glowing in Burlesque (which was neither "awful" nor a "cinematic masterpiece" as some on this board claim) but in my opinion CA was about as close to the perfect specimen of womanhood there ever was in her video for "Candyman"... I mean seriously, I knew she had a great voice for years but was never really a fan of her music until I happened to see that video and my jaw dropped not only at her vocal skills but at how unbelievably perfect and sexy she appeared in every different way she was styled. I defy anyone to watch that video and then take a look at the caricature of an overweight 70's Times Square hooker that she has become and claim that she is "beautiful"- physically, at least.
