And we adore her for it. If ALL of our so called celebrities would put their money where they live - this town would embrace them and possibly elect them in to public service (lol)... Yeah her boy, lovingly called Flabio by a few is odd, but hey they've been together longer than most regular couples!!!

I've never seen her show, and the only thing I've ever said to her is, "Hi, how nice to meet you!" However, the one time I DID see her was at Commander's Palace, and she looked amazing, especially for a woman then in her late 60s. Plastic surgery aside, she was graceful and animated. Her suit was stunning, and she seemed to be having a genuinely great time. There was a lot of quiet laughter coming from her table, and she was very gracious when people asked to have their picture taken with her - didn't make a scene, wasn't showy about it, didn't distract everyone else from their meal - just gracious. I am AMAZED that she's still performing into her 70s! All this just makes me want to go see her perform. I don't find it a bit repulsive - I find it highly impressive.

I didn't even know Chris Owens existed until a week ago, and when I saw her I thought some voodoo priestess had brought a wax figure of Cher from Ripley's to life and it was malfunctioning on stage. So i concluded Chris Owens is the opposite of real, she's forced and manufactured, unlike Becky Allen. And to Lord David the Pirate, you have no idea what you are talking about. This has nothing to do with me being a prude. And good luck with the pirate thing. Must be challenging to paint with a hook for a hand though, and your canvases must be covered in bird shit and smell like rum. Come on Bear, I love Becky Allen and have been a fan of hers for years.

She's actually very nice offstage. I think your post title should read "In Defense of Ladies of a Certain Vintage of Silicone and Collagen" Chris Owens doesn’t scare me as much as her husband does.

I'm going to Walgreen's to pick up some mascara.

Whatta schmo. He obviously never studied the First Rule of French Quarter Legends; If you don't want to see it, don't look. The idea that Chris Owens, or anyone else, for that matter, should stay home because he doesn't apporove, ought to get him a one-way ticket to Branson, MO, where the Bland & Timid perform 24/7, giggling the entire time, never saying the word 'DARN', only miming it and making a stage whispering sound. Gee willikers. Judging by the crowd in the photographs he posted, I suggest the Professor stay home (and help Gilligan fix the boat?) and let everyone else be entertained as they see fit. I'm curious, Professor Drudgery, how often do that many people turn out to applaud you? I couldn't begin to guess, because, well, I've never even heard of you before...neither, I'm sure, has the World Famous Chris Owens.
