Ellen Pompeo


When I saw the ads on tv about "The Good Wife", thats honestly who I thought it was.
Does anyone else agree that her and Ellen Pompeo look slightly alike in some photos?
Except for the hair colour...they look really similar to me!
She must have the "you look like all these other people" gene that I have also.
I don't understand how people think she looks old, either. She's quite attractive, I wouldn't dare sneeze at looking like that at 43 either, not every movie/tv star has to have a face full of botox!

oh wow... I'm saying this as a joke but are you taking medication that maybe you skipped the day you saw the ads? Or do you have glasses that need changing? lol
No offense but I can't find the resemblance and Margulies has a warmth in her acting that Pompeo definitely definitely lacks

Oh wow, actually I don't take that as a joke, how dare you. That's plain offensive, rude and childish. How old are you, 12, 13? What a playground "joke".
And no, I am not "lol".

You have already offended me with your cyber stupidity. I don't appreciate getting attacked with such rude comments from a stranger.

Anyway, I am not saying their acting is similar as I have not seen Julianna Margulies acting before including any actual episodes of "The Good Wife", merely that they have similar faces and some similar expressions.

By the way, I hope that you don't talk to your grandparents in that manner, if they're alive. If they knew what you were writing on the internet to strangers safe behind your computer I am sure they would be very ashamed to have such a stupid and rude grandchild. Think about it, darling.

I'm 35, thanks for asking so you can drop the condescending tone. You know, there are chances you'll be conversing with strangers on the internet, right? And if you're looking for unconditional validation, you should probably look elsewhere.

As for your question, "Does anyone else agree that her and Ellen Pompeo look slightly alike in some photos? " I could have simply answered 'no' but where's the fun in that?

As for the rest of your post, sadly my grandpa passed away a couple of years ago and I loved him dearly so thanks for making it personal but you know what? He was a great man who taught me a lot about tolerance and he always told me you shouldn't waste your time with people who don't have a sense of humor so... have a good life and maybe you should stop posting on the internet if you take yourself that seriously, you're going to get hurt a lot.

Ithilfaen, I would have to agree with you. If you walk the way of the internet, you will get offended. No one ever said the internet is full of nice people and that all the world is pleasant, it isn't. Grow up m'am or find another place to visit.

reply

Your grandfather taught you to not waste time with people that have no humour? Is that tolerance, really?
And I don't spend time with you, stranger. You don't know if I have a sense of humour or not. You shouldn't "joke" online without at least explaining that you are joking or at all and especially not with someone who doesn't know you.

I am not looking for unconditional validation, just respectful opinions WITHOUT becoming rude and personal and asking if I am on medication or something, which is what YOU did in the first place! Pathetic "joke" and really not funny.

If you think that I should toughen up, then you should too, because if you want to make it personal and be rude yourself behind your computer screen, then I'll make it personal also. I'll also waste my time posting this in the hope that maybe this message will get through to someone.

I am fully aware that more than 99% of the people on the internet are strangers to me. I also think the internet can be a very cruel, stupid and useless place if individual people don't set some personal standards with their own conduct and intellect on the internet which they may do more so in "real life".
If you made that "joke" to someone within five minutes of meeting them in real life I doubt that things would go your way. You cannot have assessed that person quickly enough to know how they would react to that "humour" or even assume that they would find that an appropriate joke to make to a stranger, therefore, why should you presume that I would have the same sense of "humour", someone you have never met and never will and whose post you replied to on a whim without even knowing how that sort of rude comment would affect me?

By the way, I find the medication "joke" which I have heard 50 000 times HIGHLY offensive because if I did take medication I would think you were simply attacking me on a personal level with verbal abuse.

I hope someday people realise that they cannot say what they want on the internet and behave however they want on the internet without some real consequences, because believe me, they do. You aren't talking to a computer screen, you are talking to people. Set some personal standards for yourself and treat others the way that not only you would like to be treated yourself but what you think someone like the Queen of England would like to be treated. Or your favourite movie star or musician or whoever is important to you. Don't be rude because it's "fun".

I have a really good life actually, and I am surrounded by people who have the same idea of respect as me, thank goodness.

I find it sad that this discussion has to exist on a message board of a great actress when I made a very short, simple and innocent comparison. Sorry, Julianna Margulies.

I totally agree with on that. I don't think Margulies and Pompeo look alike at all. As for acting Ellen could never hold a torch to Julianna. Shortly after the 2010 Emmy nominations I read many laughable comments from Grey's fans were crying because Pompeo didn't get nominated in the lead actress category. Pompeo is the worst lead actress on TV right now. She has and never will be worthty of an Emmy nomination. Julianna did drop off the radar for a few years and her other show which was on Fox flopped but she had the ability to make a great comeback to TV. Ellen Pompeo's career will likely tank after Grey's Anatomy ends.

Are these not conflicting statements??
