yeah just because a girl is amazingly hot doesn't mean she can't be insecure and dorky like allegra was, my best friend is a very beautiful girl a 9 on most people's list, and most guys are afraid to talk to her because of this but like allegra she's insecure and dorky

I wish the world would stop assuming that beauty is all that matters in love. It's the LEAST important thing. If someone loves you for YOU, they love you regardless. Why is it so unrealistic that a supermodel-ish millionaire would fall for a nice guy, even if he's not got rock-hard abs or model looks?

Why is there one standard of beauty? I have known model-attractive men that I would not want to spend a minute with because they aren't nice people...I have also known more average (by America's standards) guys that are so unbelievably attractive simply because of who they are.

Not to mention, Kevin James isn't a bad looking guy. They're always making fat jokes about him (I watch a lot of King of Queens) but he's not even really fat. There are times he has more weight on him, yes, but most of the time he's just bulked up, just a bigger guy. Compared to the stick queens in Hollywood, yeah, he's bigger, but I don't think he's fat and I certainly don't think he's a bad looking guy.

Besides, once you get to know someone and start to fall in love, none of that matters at all. Their little quirks whether physical or not just are every-day common place things that just don't matter in the long run. "Love at first sight" doesn't exist but the more you get to know someone the more that love blossoms and deepens.

You got that right about Kevin James being a nice guy and apparently can also woo a beautiful woman! Look on here IMDB and look at pictures of him and his wife. She's HOT!

Doesn't matter if its the "least important thing". Humans are superficial. It's horrible and shouldn't be that way, but it doesn't make it any less true.

The OP must be a male.
There's a reason hot girls are seen with average guys...we aren't as stringent with our looks when dating like guys are.
Guys want a hot girl (visual) first and then see how the rest is...girls will give a guy a chance first and let his personality grow on us, maybe because we're not wired visually but emotionally, maybe we're not as superficial, maybe we want attention so badly we'll take anything...

...who knows?

Actually, I'm a girl, and it is UNBELIEVABLY important for a guy to make a good first impression on me and get me thinking he's hot. Otherwise, I won't even give him a second thought (as a possible crush).

Now, there are some guys that don't pass my first little "test" so I just get to know them as friends. There have been a few that I grew attracted to as I spent more time with them.

But still, for me to consider dating a guy, it is actually very important that he looks good. I'm sorry, but that's just the way I am. Ugly things in general upset me, and good-looking things just make me feel good. It's the way I think.

Why? All women are like that and so are men. At least she's being honest about it.

reply

[–] snorefest 15 years ago

straight up, it's a fact of life. Most people are like that. Some people just have high standards. I'm not saying it's right, but everyone has a point where beauty becomes a factor.

No chance but it wouldn't be a good movie if everything was realistic

reply

[–] sourpussc 16 years ago

exactly...lighten up, it's fiction...

although if it weren't, i would think the chances would be slim, not because of the way either one looks, but because of the vast differences in their lifestyles & backgrounds...can't imagine they have buckets in common...

as a side note, women (AND men) who discount a person purely on the basis of their looks is cheating themselves out of some great people...some of the best times i've had were in unexpected company...

what if the hokey pokey really IS what it's all about?

There you go. Girls go for all kinds of men and some are shallower than others

PErsonally, i wouldn't think that Mr. Albert would have a chance with Allegra at first glance. but she's an heiress, not a model (whom i'd assume to be model). and if the character had a little more personality than just being the pretty rich girl, it might've made sense

Still, a lot of guys like Hitch, who supposedly try to help normal guys get girls, feed off their desire for HOT women and make their money giving advice to these suckers

Well, Hitch isn't like that according to the movie. This is why Sara ends up exposing him for this incorrectly, and that she says that the paper did a retraction. Is there possibly guys that are doing this that are dishonest? There is everywhere, just check your spam box or the "enhancement" e-mails that get through the filter.

And actually, there have been times in the press where a girl is more successful than the guy and everybody is going "How did that happen?" I think one (current) example would Jennifer Love Hewitt with her boyfriend on- and off-screen for Ghost Whisperer, Jamie Kennedy. There are some others in the past that I can't think off the top of my head. Possibly John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston (although I hear the guy's a jerk in how he's treating her after the umpteenth breakup).

Kevin James is married to a model. Do a Google image search for Steffiana de la Cruz.

The comedian and movie star Kevin James is married to a model

WOuld the junior accountant Albert Brenaman be married to an heiress?

Sure, why not. Stranger things have happened.

Its not only love or sex though... for some its about money. Thats the truth too.

Exactly...or status. Really it's about power...either in the form of looks, money, character or status. Along with the obvious "looks" category, any one of these can make someone look more or less attractive.

Kevin James (to me) may not be the best looking guy out there but he's a successful actor. If he were, say, a hobo...no chance would he be married to his current wife.

People need to stop citing celebrities as good examples of successful or failed relationships. They work differently than the everyday people.

We have to be honest. Men care more about looks than women. Women care more about wealth and status.

Totally agree. Guys who look and act like Kevin James don't get hot chicks in the real world. I have met lots of people in my 55 years on this earth and I can think of zero examples.

And yet, Hollywood puts out one movie after another with these ridiculous match-ups. The fact that James has a hot wife means nothing. If he was Kevin James the insurance salesman he wouldn't have her either.
