Yo' mama so ugly... but I'm sure she's a nice person!
Finally, I have a reason to use this icon.

Yeah, I know finding wank on IMDb is like shooting fish in a barrell.

Over at IMDb on the Eric Bana boards there's a thread about his wife of eight years and pretty much constant companion, Rebecca. As is normal operating procedure over there, wank ensues. I knew this would happen eventually with him, I just knew it.

The OP states: "It used to annoy the bloody hell out of me when my girl would drool over this guy, but then I saw is wife and I thought "Why? You could have anyone you want. Why this tattered thing?" Looks aren't it all, I know, but I don't get this union."

Respones range from "Rebecca Gleeson is a bit haggy. I don't get it either, but maybe she is really nice," to stating that she should gain weight and/or find a fashion coordinator to help her find clothes to flatter her figure and age, and quite a few people calling other people out for slagging on the man's wife and the mother of his kids that he "clearly adores." All the while stating "I'm sure she's a very nice person."

While I've not participated, I'll just point at my icon again. And fangirl.

My personal favorite is when someone, in the midst of discussion about how she should gain about 100 pounds, points out "In the Black Hawk Down premiere pics, she looked dare I say, pretty good. Why? Because she had more meat on her bones." Yeah, she was pregnant, you halfwit. [/wanking]

I'm sort of confused on why he would be required to have a 'hot' wife.

Furthermore, if he had a "hot" wife, wouldn't everyone immediately think she was a tramp and a bitch, and think he was a shallow bastard who only married her for her looks? Either way, sister woman can't win.

Because his Lifetime Celebrity Fun Pass will be revoked if he doesn't show Proof of Hot Wifeness?

Or it's written into the United Nations charter, "All good-looking, famous men are required to have hot wives!"

I've found with myself that most celebrity males I'm attracted to, have normal looking wives. (I won't say ugly, homely, or not-hot because they really aren't... they simply look like your next-door neighbor)

Because they're hot and they should have someone hot on their arm! Only then the woman would be a skank. I don't get why especially female fans would bash a spouse on their looks when half of them wish they were in her position and probably aren't all that themselves.

Ugh, this is something that really rankles me about fangirls. I gave up on ever bothering with other Elvis Costello fans when I went to an EC LJ community and found the members did nothing but make catty remarks about Diana Krall. I don't normally accuse people of being jealous just because I dislike their behaviour but in this kind of case it's pretty obvious, isn't it?

o.0 Elvis Costello and Diana Krall?

Don't get me wrong, I think she's perfectly nice-looking. It just seems an odd meeting of the musical minds, is all.

It's glaringly obvious. See, I don't venture out of my GJ/LJ friends list much, and most of the fans of Bana that I've met seem to respect the hell out of Rebecca, or, if they don't, they keep it to themselves. I don't touch the communities, and I stopped visiting a board on a fansite because they were constantly slagging off on Orlando Bloom, which I thought was a bit disrespectful, not just to people who maybe actually do like Orlando, but also to Eric himself, because that's his friend, you know? The shit with the wife pisses me off more though, not just because I honestly do like her, and them as a couple, but because not only can you see the jealousy oozing, but again, it's just disrespectful.

Wow. I wanked you a novel. *picks up tissues, mops up mess* Sorry about that.

As opposed to my friendslist in Greatest Journal. I and some friends went starry-eyed at Diana Krall and joked about us being jealous of Elvis Costello. XD

I've never understood the "He's got a significant other, therefore I hate her because she's NOT ME" attitude, largely because it's not as though whatever celebrity in question would clearly be otherwise dating the person writing the girlfriend hate posts. Yes, I'm certain Mr. Celebrity is going to drop his significant other to hook up with you, Ms. Nerd on the Internet.

I was asked once if it bugged me that (name of well known guy I find hot) is married and do I hate his wife. "Fuck no," I said, "I'm pretty sure he's not lying awake at night feeling compelled to leave her for some crank in Boston, and anyway I'm married too."

People, this is nothing compared to the Tèa Leoni Hate Listing. Where a stupid kid was so obsessed with the idea of David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson being involved romantically, that she cursed the shit out of Tèa and even came to say that most likely her and Duchovny's kids were bastards and that the true father of Gillian's child was Duchovny.

I wish I was kidding

Yes, I REALLY wish.

I just googled some images of her, and....what? She looks fine! She may not have that over-the-top Hollywood glam look to her, but then again, neither does he. In fact, if these people were your next door neighbours, they would be considered a very beautiful couple.

Just pretend they're an engineer and a kindergarten teacher. Now don't they look lovely?

"In the Black Hawk Down premiere pics, she looked dare I say, pretty good. Why? Because she had more meat on her bones." Yeah, she was pregnant, you halfwit.

I find that deeply amusing since given the timing and the pictures I've seen, Emma Hewitt, Jason Isaacs' partner, was also pregnant at the time. I wonder if she and Rebecca both sat on the aisle.

I love the fact that Emma is a normal-looking, kind of cute woman. I love even more the fact that Jason has made it clear that she's the grownup in the relationship, and that she's also smarter than he is, and that he loves her for that.

Though I'm sorry to say that the chick who's apparently Sean Bean's girlfriend looks kind of hoochie-like in the pictures from the NY premiere of The Island.

Honestly, in this culture, I'm just happy that there are still people left who think a woman would be more attractive if she gained a few pounds. At least these people don't subscribe to the twig=pretty mentality, which is more than I can say for the rest of America a lot of people.
