[Kat Denning](http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-oTNHjNAd_E/SOaLOg9oFSI/AAAAAAAAAA8/qstn0ZTYkDk/s400/KatDenningsBoobs.jpg), who I remember from The 40 Year Old Virgin and never noticed how big her boobies are, has big boobies.

There are leaked topless pictures from her phone. They’re easy to find. Because they’re so big.

I read that Laura San Giacomo not only seeks to minimize the size of her very large breasts, she also is a natural redhead who dyes her hair brown. I am surprised she still has a nose.

> Oh, yes! Yes, she is! The OP is using _Criminal Minds_ as an example of flat-chested FBI agents when they have the delicious Kirsten Vangsness who is my favorite on the show.

Kristin Vangsness is a wonderful actress. And beautiful. I’m glad she has a career. She also does web series now too.
