Just a thought. Perhaps.. botox, anyone? =P

But it’s true, Marisa DOES look UNUSUALLY young for her age. She looks like she’s in her late 20s / early 30s? In that particular pic, at least.

You’re right girls! I just re-read my post from last night, and OMG HOW RUDE AM I?!

I am trying to figure out how Marisa can look so much younger than Calista—when they’re both the same age. But I pretty much butchered that thought…

I have never watched the show she’s on, but I really don’t think she looks bad at all in this photo. Maybe Marisa Tomei just looks unusually young! I personally think there’s way too much pressure on women of all ages to look perfect *all* the time, at any age.

Isn’t it weird that our popular culture has come to the point where it looks odd when a beautiful woman doesn’t look unnatural enough?

This whole subject has been on my mind lately because I’ve been watching films from the 70’s and 80’s, and geez, the actors in those films look so much more like “regular people” than in current films. It’s just got me thinking about how our expectations for personal appearance have changed so much in the past few decades.

Makeup artists can do wonders. I think her character’s meant to look worn out..
