Faith Ford looked better than onscreen


Ran into Tanya Tucker on a ski lift back in the 80s. Looked better in person to me.

Met face to face and actually talked with.


Jessica Biel - drop dead gorgeous with very little makeup and a very nice person. wearing a ballcap too.

Joan Collins in a sidewalk cafe in cannes she was striking and also a nice person.

Claudette Colbert - 1977 spoke french briefly with her, my then 77 year old great granfather said I just spoke with royalty. sat next to her in a french quarter restaraunt. Of course 12 year old me had no clue who she was, but she commanded a presence.

Nancy Reagan Stark memorial - she was awesome.... Told us nothing more handsome than a stout sailor in dress whites.....

saw Sela Ward in Weidmanns in Meridian in 1994, even dressed down in camo pants and a black Tshirt she was gorgeous


She was at the Chimes when I worked there. Beautiful woman.

Was in a movie with Lena Heady (Cersei Lannister, Game of Thrones). She's not traditionally beautiful, but her cold/hard look is definitely not acting.

I've talked to Jada Smith after a concert one night. She's very tiny and was pretty cool. Believe it or not she was lead for a heavy metal band. Wicked Wisdom if I remember correctly.

I met Esme Bianco, who played the prostitute “Ros” in Game of Thrones, at a GoT convention. Her hair was just as red, her tits just as nice, her skin was sublime, and her face was just as pretty as on the show. She was more gorgeous in person, actually. There was this aura about her that I imagine lots of celebrities have.

Not sure if Tabitha Soren counts as a celebrity anymore. She’s married to author I follow. Not bad looking for her age; pretty tall.

Saw Melissa Joan Hart in Baton Rouge of all places but it was like 17 years ago. She looked cute back then. But I never thought she was a total knockout.

Melissa Raunch is easy on the eyes. Again like 10 years ago.

I never thought too much of Zoe Perry but she is not bad either. Girl next door vibes if the girl next door was actually hot.

All of them are older than me. None are ugly.

Torrie Wilson - FINE af
Cameron Diaz - bad complexion, underwhelming
Kristian Alfonso & Nadia Bjorlin (actresses from Days of our Lives) - both were gorgeous
Brooke Shields - meh
Daryl Hannah - Iooked good and was very cool and down-to-earth
i saw some of the VS Angels in Miami for NYE '00 and from what i remember they were super-skinny, much skinnier than I expected
When I went to a fight i sat by a girl who is apparently an "Instagram model" named Abby Wetherington - she was very, very pretty
Elin Nordegren (Tiger Woods' ex) - very pretty, but she was pregnant at the time

That’s a bummer. She rocks the nerdy/hot vibe on screen.

Kathleen Turner and a couple other lesser-known actors at the Maple leaf bar in the early 90s. She was dancing and having a great time. Not much make up on and she looked naturally gorgeous gorgeous. Later, I was at the bar ordering a drink and she was behind me. It was pretty packed. I asked her what she wanted. She told me And I bought her a beer. She said “thank you; you are a doll.” That’s my only claim to fame.

As a NOLA bellman in the 90s, I brought peak-era super-models Christy Turlington & Naomi Campbell up to their room, who were in town for a Vogue shoot. When they came down, all dolled up, for a cab to go to the photo-shoot, they were simply breath-taking.

Even though they were of different races, they looked liked sisters as they were so uncommon to "regular" beauties who I used to think were stunning. Christy & Naomi were both 5-10 (with heels, 6-2), perfectly symmetrical faces, long necks, hourglass figures, long arms & long legs. Just unforgettable gorgeous other-worldly creatures.

Funny story. About 10 years ago I sat next to a very normal looking chick on a long flight (Pittsburgh to the west coast somewhere). Kind of chatted her up. I noticed another passenger checking her out.

She asked what I did for a living, and when I asked her what she did….she told me she was in adult film. Surprised me because she looked and acted very normal. Very friendly.

I remember googling her after the flight and being surprised as hell in a way I won’t share. But for the life of me I can’t remember her name.

Alison Brie, on a film set, very pretty and petite

My daughter was a child model/actress and so we met other models, actors, producers and directors. Probably the best known female would be Zendaya, who was then a tall, slender and rather plain teenager, before the Spiderman films. Expert make-up would do wonders for her in subsequent years.

Met Natasha Henstridge in the 90s at the MTV Rock n Jock Super Bowl in Nola.

She had her hair pulled back, very little makeup and looked even better in person.

Carol Alt - Just Stunning

Tara Reid - Meh.

I also remember there was NO QUESTION that Kordell Stewart was the best athlete out there.

Met James Marsden about 20 years ago, and remember thinking damn that is one good looking dude NOHOMO

Zoe Saldana and Katee Sackhoff.

Zoe (on Bourbon) took some time to talk to my ex wife, and she said she was prettier in real life. I didn't realize who she was, and sure wasn't going to pay attention the day after my wedding.

Katee was a different kind of hot. Zoe was model hot, but Katee was hotter because her BS Galactica personality seemed to be pretty close to her real life personality (at Sullivan's.)

IIRC he was the mayor of Ellick at the time and they were engaged before he died unexpectedly.

I was traveling to Brisbane Australia and boarded a plane in Los Angeles behind John Travolta and Kelly Preston in 2013.
Kelly Preston was more beautiful in person than on screen.
