I doubt it. Most black women that I know look at least a decade younger than their ages and most have dark eyes.

Sometimes.

But her eye color is what makes her just a little different looking. It's her "hook".

Merle Oberon, a great beauty in her day, had one eye that was imperfect. There was a cast to it and she photographed differently because of it. It reflected the light differently than most eyes. She was lit so you wouldn't say, "What's wrong with her eye?" but, instead, "Look how beautiful her eyes are!"

Jen's eyes are a very unusual color. They make you stop and look at her twice and you aren't sure why. When she's photographed, they light her so YOUR eyes are drawn to HER eyes.

An unusual eye color is a catch. People with very light colored eyes often garner a lot of attention. Think about all the people you know with blue eyes. The lighter blues usually attract more attention. Think Paul Newman.

(Not to say dark eye's aren't attractive. But, subconsciously, people are naturally attracted to very light colored eyes. Because they're so unusual. Speaking film industry here. It always helps to be just a little different.)

Don't know about how the stars do it and don't really care. The study says women loose their looks at 35? My wife turned 60 last August. She's no Demi and I'm no Fabio, or whoever the women drool over any more. (Just look at our pick on my profile) She has an illness that can cause her to lose too much weight. She was down to 79 lbs before they found out what was wrong with her. The doctor said the weight means she is doing good. She's 5'2" and 180. But to me she is my Mrs. America. The most beautiful woman in the world. I keep telling her that and she tells me she's not pretty. There's really just 2 people you need to look good for. Yourself and the person you love. Her kids giggle at us. She's my Mrs. America and I'm her teddy bear!

If we're talking about stars in their mid-60s, L&L, go back to the French. Catherine Deneuve looks worlds better.

I want to know what Ann Curry's secret is! She's beautiful and does not look over 50.

I think Meredith Vieira is gorgeous, but I think she looks great for her age, not younger than her age.

That study was brought to you by 3 gay men and 4 fat women. They all have PHD's so they must know.

I think you are wonderful!! My admiration for you is enormous.

Thank you for bringing us all back down to earth.

I wrote about what they do in H'wood because it's something I know about. At the end of the day it means nothing when we're talking about the real world. But you have the secret to love and life. I wish you nothing but wonderful things for your whole family!!

I tease my wife a lot. She says she is old. I tell her you're as young as you feel and she feels fine to me! LOL

I think women can be beautiful no matter what their age. I am 40 and fabulous! My DH still thinks I'm hot. And that's all that matters.
(often people confuse me with my 19 year old daughter)
