The World Through My Eyes

Paulette stared opposite Charlie Chaplin in "The Great Dictator." She was also married to him. All I can say is wow, you don't see this kind of beauty much anymore.

What can I say, but wow. These are photos from Christina's GQ shoot a while back, before she was pregnant. Christina is a beautiful woman, and has that classy look to her. Her recent CD Back to Basics was a decent CD. I loved how she took some classic sounds and incorporated them into her music. "Candyman" and "Ain't No Other Man" had a nice 40's style big band feeling to it. Both my wife and myself like her music and my wife loves her looks and she has that classic look. It's just interesting to see her compared to Brittany Spears, both came into music at the same time, and look at where both of them are at. I know these are a little bit more edgy then what I usually post, but I find these pictures classy and not to over the top, so enjoy.

Just another classic beauty, Veronica Lake, who was a popular was a popular American film actress and pin-up model who enjoyed both popular and critical acclaim, most notably for her femme fatale roles in film noir with Alan Ladd during the 1940s, as well as her iconic hairstyle. It just seems like Hollywood was very glamorous back in the 40's and 50's. To bad it isn't like that any more.

Well the other night I was watching Sawshank Redemption and I saw the classic poster of Rita Hayworth so I thought that I would put her up here. She is a classic beauty it sad that you don't see much of this anymore in Hollywood. During World War 2 she was one of the most requested wartime pinups. Right up there with with Betty Grable, Dorothy Lamour, Hedy Lamarr, and Lana Turner as the pinup girls most popular with servicemen. Take a look and let me know what you think.
