Life Imitates Art

I may be a huge twat for writing this — nay, even thinking it! — but somehow, the errant strip of fake eyelashes is not the thing that bothers me the most about Laura Bell Bundy here:

The combination of the abstractly-applied eyelashes and the scary, wonky nose lend her entire face the unsettling, jarring appearance of a Modigliani painting.

I love Modigliani as much as the next person.  In fact, I love him so much that one time I took a weekend road trip up to the magnificent Kimball Art Museum in Ft. Worth to see an exhibition of his work because it was only going to be in the United States for four short weeks.

However, I don’t want to show up looking like my face was applied by someone whom history has noted as having a propensity to drink heavily, use copious amounts of absinthe and dope, strip nude at social gatherings and suffer from violent delusions and blackouts.  I mean, he sounds like he’d be fun at a party.  Just not so much as a stylist.

Seriously, though.  WTF is up with her nose?!?

*sigh*  I’m going to hell.
