We get the swimsuit issue, and last year I kept saying to my mom "there are about a half-dozen girls in this issue who would have looked better on the cover than Kate Upton" and I'm sure it will be the same thing this year. Not that she's ugly, at all, but she's not good looking to the point you stop and go "wow, who is this," which to me is the point of the swimsuit issue cover-the year Brooklyn Decker was on it I stopped pretty much everytime I saw it at work (and I work in retail, so I saw it on every lunch/break as I checked out) to think "wow, she looks amazing". I think Kate Upton has a cute face, but she looks a hell of a lot older than 20. I agree about her shape though, she is totally boy shaped but with big boobs. I get that women come in all shapes and sizes but it used to be that swimsuit models had to have actual curves. As a side note, I hate that the word curvy is now used to describe any woman who is not smaller than a six or has big boobs. And in addition, is frequently used to describe women who are fat or overweight. Kate Upton is not curvy. Neither is Adele, Giselle, Angelina Jolie, or Gabourey Sidibe. All different body types, none of them curvy. Halle Berry, crazy as she is, is curvy. Ditto for Bar Rafaeli. Also, I think it's funny that Brooklyn Decker was mentioned. I don't get her appeal at all. Amen to this. Another who is curvy but really thin is Sarah Jessica Parker and to throw in an overweight person, Oprah. People dont seem to know what the word means anymore.

Curvy is an actual body type, not a label you just slap on women who aren't built like Gwyneth Paltrow. SJP is a great example b/c she is a petite,curvy frame but you never hear media proclaiming her to be anything other than skinny. Nina Dobrev is also curvy (bust, curvy hips) but because she's slim nobody is calling her curvy. Kate Upton, pretty as she is, is just busty.

I never really noticed the Rpatz Foot Face thing until I saw some of the pictures from Coachella the other day. Yes, now I definitely see a hairy, bloated foot.

She's not ugly, but I want to tell Rooney Mara that it's been 2 years. She can stop being weird. There is no need for the 1,000 yard stare, drab red carpet ensembles, and the greased down Alfafa hairdo. We get it. You're a serious actress.

I wouldn't call her ugly either, but the claim that Rooney Mara is some great beauty is greatly exaggerated. She is not the second coming of Audrey Hepburn.

Rooney Mara's constant, (IMO very affected) "haunted precious waifling" expression annoys the absolute SHIT out of me. And this is coming from someone who didn't care that much about KStew's slouchiness! Guess we all have our limits.

I do find Rooney strangely beautiful in a way that you really don't see. Most actresses I her age range are either cute (Carey Mulligan, Emma Stone) very pretty (Nina Dobrev, Shay Mitchell) or attractively stylish (Emma Watson). But rare is it to find one that is best described as oddly beautiful. Rooney is unique in that way plus she can really act. The Fincher approved posturing did her no favors but I would be lying if I said I didn't enjoy every performance I have seen of hers (Including her small part in The Social Network).

I wish someone would tell me why I'm supposed to find Cara Delavingne attractive. I was just looking at the photos from the Royal Marsden fundraiser hosted by Prince William at Windsor Castle, and she is, simply put, creepy as hell. (Also, Kate Moss looks like her usual self, rode hard and put up wet.)

I find a lot of the top models are, for lack of a better phrase, "funny looking". I guess that's why their looks work well in photographs? I really don't get the appeal of Cara and if not for the wonders of photo shop Kate's career would have ground to a halt a decade ago.

She could be pretty, but her eyes look like pee-holes in the snow.
