She has probably had a bit of work done. A lot of the loveliest older ladies in Hollywood have. It just works better for some folks than others. But make-up and styling is also so much better for older women now. Compare stars like Mirren to old-time stars in middle and old age and you will marvel at how much…
Agreed. Very much so, actually. But heck, i'm sitting here feeling cheery about a female celebrity who's actually willing to use her own bank account to PAY for much of the finer things in life. In and of itself, that's a breath of fresh air. It doesn't excuse some pretty rampant materialism but at least she's doing…
I don't have a problem with her buying purses with money she earned. She's right, better purses that hold their value than drugs and alcohol (I'm looking at your Lindsey Lohan)
Not to mention that there are actual terrible people out there doing terrible things to others and receiving no punishment. Who is Vergara hurting with her purchase of expensive bags and consumption of expensive sundaes? And what link does she have to the people who are on food stamps? She isn't responsible for the…
I've got to agree and say I'm disappointed in this article. There is nothing wrong with Sofia Vergara spending her own money on designer handbags and/or clothes that make her happy. Don't ALL celebrities do that? She could be doing much worse things like drugs, or be getting pulled over and charged with DUIs. Sofia is…
I'd like to say "sorry, but...", but instead I'll go with "fuck this". Sauers did a post on Wintour's $200k annual clothing allowance 2 days ago. To the point Wintour's maid might be rooting through the trash for handoffs was written off as "is a little much". Blatant case of cognizant dissonance. I guess the…
I had the exact same reaction. Sofia Vergara would probably be perceived as too down-market for many of the grand French luxury goods houses but then again, so would many other B-list TV actresses and actors. Hermès is all about old money or, at very least, the impression thereof. It's also about pride of…
Yeah, I feel a little lost. She's a successful woman doing her thing. She comes from money, but she's still out there building a career, instead of just sitting back and being taken care of. Her family's money gave her a leg up, but I don't think that needs to be held against her. I find her frankness refreshing…
Only if you assume people like the Koch brothers are actually human, as opposed to swarms of stinging flies held together by malice and well-tailored skin suits.
I would add specifically for this writer, the fact she did a post on Anna Wintour's $200k annual clothing allowance calling it "chicest perks of the media economy" while 2 days later calling this woman the "worst human being alive" for owing 5 Birkin bags shows a total lack of self awareness.
...especially if you work in the fashion industry, as a fashion writer. How can one work in the fashion industry and simultaneously make comments criticizing the products that come out if it, like designer handbags? She makes a line of clothing for the 'poors', but who exactly is buying the Prada, Lanvin, and Stella…
She's talented and put in the time to get where she is. I'm getting a little tired of Jezebel being the Lifestyle Police, and judging successful women for enjoying the fruits of their labor. Be happy- she is a SUCCESSFUL LATINA, how many are there in Hollywood?
I'm sorry, I thought I was at Jezebel, where Worst Human Being Alive is more likely to be applied to an actual monster of a human being, say Ariel Castro. Instead, I see we are supposed to revile a woman for acknowledging and taking pleasure in her financial successes after many years in her industry. It's like…
I would think the Koch brothers or people who are so rich that they're actively impoverishing entire nations would be the worst human beings alive.
So what. There are a lot of disgustingly wealthy people in the U.S. and many of them are celebrated on Jez - Beyonce and Jay Z come to mind, not to mention people with no apparent talent, like the Kardashians. I think Vergara is fantastic on Modern Family. She's hilarious and a great comedic actress for that role. And…
Seriously if you think this make anyone the 'worst human being alive' I'd highly suggest you rethink your priorities. And possibly pull your head out of your ass and get to know the real world.
Once again, ladies, gentlemen and others... The Patriarchy hurts everyone.
I got into an argument with a commenter about lil poopy the other day.
Yup, turns out, outlawing abortion or making it hard to access doesn't actually lower the abortion rate overall, just the rate of safe abortions.
