I can't believe how bad this is
Eh...not a fan of the cover, but as usual I'll buy the magazine anyways. Mostly its not about the cover model for me, it's for the reading content. Nov 19 06 02:00 am Link LOL. I just got home from the store and I had been thinking the same thing when I was standing at the checkout. I hate her to begin with, but my baggage aside, that is such a horrible picture.

Nov 19 06 02:04 am Link not a fan of hers at all, but as objectively as possible - i can honestly say that i think she always looks like this! its horrible but the last few years she has taken on weird facial expressions i've noticed...but yes this pic isn't great at all and she's probably not too happy about it...thankfully most americans w/ short attention spans will forget about it quickly!

Nov 19 06 02:12 am Link What do these women have in common? 1: They both have the same hairdo 2: They both have massive foreheads 3: They were both married to a really strange freak!!! Nov 19 06 02:35 am Link i'll still marry her in a heart beat Nov 19 06 02:37 am Link FML-Photography wrote: True true, but seriously, my poor hair looks exactly like this when I tied it up in a bunch of places over night and then try to brush it in the morning.

Dont like what she is wearing...the whole boob area is wrong! x Nov 19 06 07:11 am Link Rossi Photography wrote: The hair was the first thing I freaked on...

She used the word troll. Certainly the hairstyle is out there and maybe not to everyone's liking and the broad flat light makes her look a bit wider than she really is. My first reaction to the cover is that at least tried something different. My second reaction came when I saw this cover shot right next to the OP's avatar. I have to ask where you found the stones to be critical of anything. Nov 19 06 09:53 am Link Do you smile to tempt a lover, mona lisa? Or is this your way to hide a broken heart? Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep They just lie there and they die there Are you warm, are you real, mona lisa? Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art? Nat "the only King" Cole Nov 19 06 09:58 am Link Well, look on the bright side. If her career fails, she can dress up like this and haunt houses for a living. Nov 19 06 10:00 am Link That is soooo uncool. She should have just donned a straight hair for this shoot. Yukky expression. Not a fan of this cover shot. Nov 19 06 10:05 am Link looks like a shot from a famous photographer like Bob or Bruce. Nov 19 06 10:12 am Link Yep, this is a really bad NK shot. There are a lot of non-fans it the thread, I personally am a big fan and usually looks fantastic. One of the coolest things about Nicole, is how versatile her hair is, most of the time looking great, this time really bad. One of the movies that she looked fantastic in was "To die for" anyone else have favorite Nicole looks? RB Nov 19 06 10:16 am Link Star wrote: Bob Randall Photography wrote: Ouch. And on Sunday too.

Nov 19 06 10:46 am Link I am taking a one week hiatus from the boards as of today. I am sick and tired of people. Not just MM people, but all people. Star Nov 19 06 06:06 pm Link But her forehead is big: And I would imagine that primadonna of her rank can simply say to stylist or photographer "That's the way I like it"(C). Nov 19 06 06:21 pm Link RBDesign wrote: Exactly! Nov 19 06 06:23 pm Link Besides the 220 volt hairdo, the pasty skin, and the several feet of forehead - what is up with that expression. She looks like someone behind the photographer is making tennis rackets from kittens. I dont know if shes angry or about to burst into tears. Nov 19 06 06:28 pm Link SHe's always been ugly Nov 19 06 06:30 pm Link lol Nov 19 06 06:30 pm Link Models limit there work so much now a days. That its almost impossible to figure out whos the best to work with. Nov 19 06 06:34 pm Link Star wrote: Aha! This must be the one the poster in the "Transexuals Modeling?" thread wanted to drop the dime on? Nov 19 06 06:35 pm Link BTW this looks like an older photo. She has cute side swept bangs on her latest photos: http://www.imdb.com/gallery/granitz/5256/7.jpg Nov 19 06 06:38 pm Link Still haven't gotten the name of the photographer that either a) got their photo massacred by a retoucher or b) had an art director make an unfortunate selection. That being said...I have seen a LOT worse, and by pretty well known photographers too. There was this one editorial spread, don't remember what magazine, where the well known (yet I don't remember which one) photographer took photos of supermodels in their late 30's-early 50's. I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but they did NOT look good. And I have seen other recent photos of these women where they looked much better. It is interesting, a photographer usually has the power to make a person look either good or bad, but in the commercial industry, once they take the photos and hand them in, they lose all power to control what photo is selected or what the final results will be.
