What’s with her and the porn faces? She seems absolutely plastered. If I weren’t convinced it’s a publicity stunt before, that video would confirm it: there is no way in hell any adult man can find that type of behavior remotely sexy or attractive. And he flat out says his offers and interest in him have exploded. And that poor dog- she’s slinging it around like a prop in the interview. ---

> [@RickJay](#): > > I don’t know why it’s surprising that you can tart a 16-year-old up to look 26. A few months going to the tanning salon, some makeup, and you can make any teenager look superficially older, at least on camera. She doesn’t look like a 16-year-old tarted up to look 26. She looks like a 26-year-old tarted up (poorly) to look 16. ---

I’ve figured out what I find so off-putting about her - her voice, laughter, and some of her mannerisms remind me of “Pat” from SNL. ---

Hutchison is actually a pretty good actor. In interviews, he has poise and elocution-- which just makes her look and sound that much worse in comparison. I couldn’t find that picture ABC used of Courtney’s father walking her down the aisle, but if you’ve seen the video: doesn’t he look just ecstatic? ---

You know, you can be in a marriage that lasts a long time and still have a shitty life. Just because your marriage ended up lasting doesn’t mean you didn’t miss a lot. ---

It’s like she’s auditioning for porn all the time. When she’s walking, when she’s sitting, when she’s talking, when she’s listening. It’s bizarre. ---

> [@Sarahfeena](#): > > It’s like she’s auditioning for porn all the time. When she’s walking, when she’s sitting, when she’s talking, when she’s listening. It’s bizarre. She’s 16 trying to act much older than she is, she seems to be under the impression sexuality is what mature women have that a teenager lacks. And she’s right, but the execution is what’s messed up, like an 8 year old putting on mommy’s makeup. ---

I can’t believe he’s marrying her!! I mean, she’s so annoying…how can he tolerate it? Maybe it’s the fact that her boobs are “rill”. I want to slap her. ---

Of course her hair is fake. I love how she says, “You can pull it, go ahead.” Honey, the color is from a bottle. You aren’t even trying to hide your roots. ---

> [@Crazyhorse](#): > > She turns 17 in about 2 months. Her apparently authentic marriage license is posted [here](http://www.radaronline.com/sites/radaronline.com/files/Courtney%20Alexis%20Stoddard%20Marriage%20License%20Radaronline.pdf). (PDF) > > I have to agree, she looks 25-30 to me. I guess its just a combination of makeup, surgery, and genetics. > > At 51 he still has a baby face and she looks like she’s been around the block and back, several times. Whenever I hear that line I’m reminded of Marianne Faithful in 1979 when she released her famous “Broken English” album. It seemed like she had been around FOREVER and that was before I became aware just how hard she had gone into the smack scene. And then I found out she was only 32 at the time. Getting back to the OP. You know what I like about this young lady? She’s got spunk, loads of self confidence. I, for one, wish her happiness in her life choices. As for the guy? Hmmmm… he seems like a decent enough sort of bloke. Would I do it? Hmmm… at my local supermarket where I’m a regular, there are some young ladies who are always very happy to crack a laugh with me and engage me in conversation, and I’m 49… a very young at heart and fit 49… but I’m 49 regardless and I personally always take pains to absolutely conduct myself as a total gentleman. But I can’t lie, it is flattering. ---

The real creepy stuff comes in at about 4:30. Gee, maybe I posted too soon in my post above. Her actions from the 4:30 mark are unusual, I’ll grant you that. Certainly not those of what you’d expect from a 16 year old. Personally, she looked like she might have been on medication or high on something.
