Celebrity Magazine Covers

Now that Sex and the City movie is almost out, Sarah Jessica Parker is back in the spotlight. In my opinion, Sarah Jessica Parker is a horrible actress. If you watch her on the re-runs of SATC (especially the later seasons), she is so over the top with her facial expressions.


Anyone a fan of The Hills? This "reality" show sounds so dumb to me, but they must have a lot of fans to grace the cover of this magazine.


What's wrong with Taylor Swift's on this cover?


No one has such perfect complexion. Oh, wait, Tilda Swinton is photoshopped onto the magazine.


Did Anna Friel lose weight via photoshop?


We know Lindsay Lohan doesn't look like this in real life.


We definitely KNOW Mariah Carey doesn't have a body like this! Why do magazines do this?


Where's Rihanna these days?


I wish Rihanna would grow out her hair again, or at the very least get some extensions.


That's some red lipstick on Scarlett Johansson.


Gwyneth Paltrow in her usual long hair parted in the middle look even in photoshop.


Jessica Simpson is the most powerful woman in Dallas? I bet all the women in Dallas are fuming over this!


Since dating Tony Romo, Jessica Simpson is "comfortable being herself again" because she's "in love." I still don't understand how a Christian girl can wait to have sex until marriage with Nick Lachey and then all of a sudden, she's vacationing with Tony Romo and having "breakfast in bed" with him. Joe Simpson, you are a preacher. Please preach to your daughter.


Kim Cattrall isn't this thin in real life.


I believe they kept Kim Kardashian "real" for this cover.


I like Amanda Peet's dress.


Why would Carrie Underwood grace this cover?


They always make Eva Mendes look sexier than she really is.


I love the title under Ellen Pompeo's name. She's smiling again because her hit show is getting good again. Does it mean that it was getting bad?


Evan Rachel Wood needs to remember she's 19 years old!

I understand that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but some of the names on this list is ridiculous (see my red comments above). Do you agree? Who do you loudly disagree? Who's missing that should be on this list? Where is Jennifer Aniston? Reese Witherspoon? Catherine Zeta-Jones? Wentworth Miller? Where are the Asians?

TV Guide's Sexiest Man and Woman

Patrick Dempsey has come a long way since Can't Buy Me Love (you have to rent it if you haven't seen him in it) and he really has matured into a mature and sexy man. But Jennifer Love Hewitt as the sexiest woman on TV? Come on! I bet TV Guide chose her because they wanted to people like me to blog about it. Agree or disagree?

Celebrity Magazine Covers

Jennifer Garner looks like she's on the cover of Coldwater Creek and Kohls magazine (clothes that are usually bought by school teachers in my opinion) instead of Self.


Kate Moss is more celebrity than supermodel these days, but it is refreshing to see a model instead of actress on a magazine cover.


Megan Fox looks like she's "high" on something here.


I watched a couple of episodes of Sex and the City when it was on the WB channel and I have to say, Sarah Jessica Parker is a horrible actress on it. So over the top from wardrobe to her facial expresions!


I see an old glimpse of "PNJ" Ashlee Simpson here (pre-nose job).


Christina Ricci is growing on me as a rare and unique beauty.


Do you think Kelly Clarkson ever looks of pictures of Carrie Underwood and think, "why aren't I on magazine covers like her?"


I hate the finger on the lip pose! Fergie you look so stupid-licious!


Jennifer Aniston looks beautiful albeit a little photoshopped.
