Or so the makers of nearly every movie she makes wants you to think. If I hadn’t been told otherwise I’d have thought she was a babe with a great personality and sense of humor and big, brown, soulful eyes. I’m real glad the movie people corrected me. I saw something else where Helena Bonham Carter was the supposed to be the ugly duckling cousin. Ooops! I blew it again. No wonder you women are so fucked up about your appearance. Then there’s that new movie where the guy from “American Pie” is the homely friend. Right. ---

I’m with you about Jeaneane. Sounds like frantic typecasting in action to me. But that’s Hollywood for you. ---

I’m with you on that one, I think Janeane is hot. And better yet, she looks like a real person. ---

Jeaneane Garafolo is hot! She cracks me up. I can’t believe she’s chosen all these suckin’ movies though. She needs a better agent. ---

Yes she IS horrible, and cranky and ignorant and not pretty. So leave her alone. She’s mine. ---

All yours. I can think of few women I would find less attractive. ---

I liked _The Truth About Cats and Dogs_, but couldn’t believe they cast her as the ugly/homely one. She’s cute! Based on looks, I’d take her over Uma Thurman any day (too scrawny). Ms. Garofalo does seem to have an attitude problem, however. ---

I think Janeane is very smart and very funny, and VERY messed-up. She’s thin and gorgeous and all she does is bitch about how “fat and ugly” she is. I should be so fat and ugly! ---

Well, she’s usually cast as the smart and capable woman, isn’t she? And we know that all THOSE broads are unattractive.
