    Too bad she’s a covert narcissist.

    Looks Russian.

  4. Adrian1Cram says:

    Meh. She looks like the average girl I see everyday. Nothing special, also a bit old looking if you ask me.

      I’d love to move to where you are at. But any, you’re entitled to your opinion, all I can say is: she’s beautiful, whether it’s average or extreme, no one can deny that about her, but, her personality or lack of,however, sticks. Like how no one cares about Megan Foxx anymore, despite of how beautiful she is, that doesn’t make up for her lack of personality & uninteresting she is

        Metta… Just a word of advice – looks don’t really mean anything. As much as you think they do, it’s more than hard to live with anyone just bc of the way they look, yet turn out to be batshite crazy. Aside from Amber proving my point, hands down… I remember a absolutely gorgeous girl (that became a bit an an overly obsessive friend – not by my choice). She would literally stalk just about any guy she ever dated – even just once – as she would call me from her car while.sitting outside of his house to see ifnhe was seeing someone else. An ex of mine & later, very good friend asked me about her when I warned him that she was out of her mind – BUT of course, her looks outweighed anything I told him. Not many weeks later, he begged for help trying to.get away from her – as the group of us reminded him that he was warned. Looks don’t mean a thing when you’re imprisoned in your own special prison of hell with no way out – but to maybe change your number & move to another state, hoping to God they don’t find you. The older you get, the less importance looks have – as they go down the toilet eventually anyhow

      Quite a troll of a comment there Adrian! I guess if you’re 12 years old then she is old looking.

    • ses101 says:

      She was stunning when she started getting parts around 2008, but unsurprsingly (it happens to us all) she is a bit more “average” now. If you want the epitomy of blande blonde looks, Charlize Theron is the best example I can think of.

      You must live in Garden of Eden then
