Can we talk about this?

Now, I'm not the huge fan of Tina Fey that many women I know are.  But I've always found 30 Rock funny when I get around to watching it.  And Mean Girls was terrific, of course.  While I'm somewhat ambivalent about Ms. Fey, I do acknowledge that she's an attractive woman.  She's got too much character to her face to have movie-star-face, but I think she's lovely.

However, when I got my April InStyle today, this is what I saw:

What is that?  Who is that?  Because it sure doesn't look like Tina Fey.  I actually had to look to see who it was supposed to be.  Why is she wearing that?  Why does her face (or portions of her face) seem to be so poorly attached to someone else's body?  I'm fairly lenient toward photoshopping, but this is ridiculous.  Isn't the whole point of having a celebrity on the cover of your magazine to have a recognizable draw to drive sales?  She's a popular woman because she has a unique look, and InStyle just erased that with a few clicks of a computer.  

The Wednesday Pretty

Following the pretty from Amanda Seyfriend last week, I've decided to attempt to post something gorgeous every Wednesday as a mid-week pick-me-up.  

I've yet to be super-impressed by Mia Wasikowska, and I think a big part of that is that I feel like I'm being told I'm supposed to like her.  Ugh.  Unfairly perhaps, she seems to carry herself with that same indie-actress supercilious condescension that's been pouring off Natalie Portman lately.  But I can't deny that this spread in W is lovely.

Stunning.  And you can see her ballet background in the way she carries herself and poses.  

I still probably won't go see Jane Eyre.  It's one of my favorite books, but I just don't see the need for a remake, when there are so many wonderful versions already.  Especially one in which Jane is blonde.  Blurgh.  Maybe enough good said about it by Jane fans will change my mind.  We'll see, I suppose.  :-)

Gorge.

I've liked Amanda Seyfried ever since Veronica Mars, and it's cool to see her doing well.  I must admit I'm not completely sure about the new Red Riding Hood movie.  It seems a little too Twilight-y for me, but I do adore the various plays on fairy tales (silly romantic movies though they are) like Ever After and Beastly.


In the typical starlet-promoting-a-new-movie mode, she's been featured in several fashion magazines, but this image from the latest Elle just amazed me.  Seriously.  Gorgeous.  Especially someone for such a unique form of beauty like Seyfried's.  That's about all I've got to add.
