often be surgically during their mid-teen years so they do, ultimately, wind
up looking like Mom and Dad.

If they are, shame on the parents.
Billy Joel's kid had a 50% chance of looking like Christie Brinkley, but

I don't think Alexa is ugly AT ALL. She has a great figure and is sultry
and interesting and very attractive.

She is on Billy Joel's right (our left) in the picture.

my heart BLEEDS for this child. poor thing. i can see her getting pregnant at
fifteen by some jerk who just wants her money.
I tihnk she's very pretty - much prettier than Brinkley, IMO. Billy Joel was
good-looking when he was younger, IMO.

I think she is just as pretty as her mom, but in a different way. Alexa is
really attractive and I was so surprised to see her name here.

Considering what Aaron Spelling looks like, I think Tori turned out just
fine. Of course, I think she's cute in an off-beat sort of way.

Agree..Alexa is precious looking and seems happy with herself. Give Christie
alot of credit for that tho' Billy seems to adore too.

After she had plastic surgery of course. She was a homely kid before then.
She's still got those weird fish eyes though.
I don't know if anyone mentioned Jamie Lee Curtis, Carrie Fisher or any of
Elizabeth Taylor's kids but I think they are perfect examples of genetics
turning on the children of gorgeous parents.

Well, Jamie Lee Curtis isn't as lovely as her father was, but then, few
women are. I don't think she's bad looking, nor is Carrie Fisher,
especially considering *her* father. I don't remember seeing pictures of
Taylor's children.
Someone mentioned the Demi Moore/Bruce Willis children. I know it's
impolite to say so, but the oldest girl has a chin like Jay Leno's.
Someone else mentioned Britney Spears's future stepdaughter, said "she fell
from the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down." I confess -- I
thought the same thing, but didn't have the heart to say so.

But Jamie Lee's daughter is adopted, so genetics don't enter into it.

She's only 2 though, and her mother is very pretty, so it's too early to
tell.
(And after all the Olson Twins - who I always thought looked just like
troll dolls as small children - have turned into presentable young
women, eating disorders notwithstanding.)

Jamie's Mother was gorgeous (Janet Leigh) and had a drop-dead body which
Jamie obviously inherited. With Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh for parents,
how she ended up with that horse-face is beyond comprehension.

I agree. If Tori was just some random college girl drinking Coronas in
a beach bar at the Jersey shore, *plenty* of people would think she was
a nice, cute, bubbly girl. BUT because she's Tori SPELLING she somehow
has to meet this whole other standard of beauty which she, like 99.9% of
the female population, is unable to meet. She seems to be happy living
her life without a.g.c's approval, so I guess she doesn't need our help!

Hmmm, well, Jamie Lee at least got an incredible figure and many men find

Huh? Jamie Lee isn't adopted, so what is your point? She is genetically
Tony Curtis's daughter. Jamie Lee isn't as gorgeous as Tony Curtis used to
be -- but then who is? She's a lot more balanced than he is -- that's for
sure.

She's not so much ugly as homely or odd. But not at all pretty or cute. And
not handsome or striking. Odd.

Seen her lately? She's slimmed down and looks good.

I wasn't talking about Jamie Lee's DAUGHTER being homely. I was talking about
Jamie Lee. Both her parents were gorgeous movie stars and you would think that
with those genes she would have been stunning...but she wasn't.

I agree....those girls were homely kids.
That's true -- and she's not mean -- in fact, she's quite the opposite of
mean, if my friend is to be believed (and I don't know why she wouldn't be).
My friend said that TS was very friendly and considerate -- and she worked
with her all day on a 90210 ep, so that is what she bases it on (not much --
but more than most).

Yes she had a great figure ( enhanced with breast implants). I was talking
about her face though.
I never thought Carrie Fisher was cute - just average. Her mother was the cute
one - still is IMO. Although I noticed that as she's getting older, Carrie is
looking more like her mother which is a good thing. Having Eddie Fisher for a
father her odds of being a troll was high. But she's OK. Not ugly just average.
Even though the daughters he had with Connie Stevens turned out to be quite
pretty.

Yes, I know Elizabeth Taylor has one adopted daughter. I was referring to her
biological children. The ones she had with Mike Todd and Michael Wilding.

I have and she's a pretty girl. That's a case where the poor thing was simply
going through a chubby adolescent stage. She obviously grew out of it.
Who? Jamie Lee? Jamie Lee's breasts are real. Trust me -- I know from
fake breasts. Those lovelies she showed in Trading Places are 100% real.
Here's a link. This is what real breasts look like.

it becomes quite easy to spot the difference.

Melanie Griffith has had breast implants. Jamie Curtis has not. I can't

Well, the link is to Jamie Lee, who does NOT have implants. Melanie does,

Is not!
Whitney and Bobby's kid has been a chunkster since she was very little. I
remember her on Oprah when she was barely three years old and she was quite
hefty.
What I want to know is why does Maddox, Angelina Jolie's kid always need to
have a haircut like a little Punk Rocker? I've *never* seen a photo of him
where his hair did not look totally obnoxious.
Anybody ever seen Barbara Walter's adopted daughter? Good God! She's an
Amazon! She's soooooo tall. I knew she was adopted right away before even
being told. She's a million feet taller than her mom. Not really a homely
girl, though. Long haired redhead gal. She's just SUUUUUPER tall and looks
funny standing next to her short little mom.
I think that Melissa Rivers has got to be one of the homliest kids of a
celebrity. Edgar, her father (Dead...committed suicide) was icky looking,
too.
Got to admit that Chastity Bono, Sonny & Cher's kid is really unattractive,
too. Wasn't bad looking as a small little girl on their show, though. Kinda'
cute with her pudgy cheeks and pigtails way back then. Too bad she never
outgrew all of the facial baby fat, though.
One of the *BEST* looking celeb kids ever had to have been Bruce Lee's
deceased son Brandon. What a looker. Damn, that guy was hot.

looking....of course with all the movie-star makeup she looks amazing but so
do most people. I guess we will just agree to disagree ;0)
Princess Caroline's children are absolutely gorgeous! Her daughter is going

Not the same thing. She had a veering off to the side Lazy Eye that was
fixed. It actually veered *away from* her nose and not towards it.
Cross-eyed is different. Cross-eyes go toward the nose. I saw a documentary
about The Brat Pack recently and that's how it was described.
