that photo of her eyes on the cover page for the site is just incredible. her face was something else. i don't think i've ever seen a person able to translate so many different moods in her look. in fact i don't think i've ever seen a woman or model possess the sort of mercurial, outstanding beauty she does. she could be soft, playful, straight-up gangsta, hardened, moody, sultry.
and she always pulled the respective looks off so damn beautifully!
what i don't like is how some of her color photos make her look terrible; some color her beautiful blue eyes brown! got any photos of her as a blonde? she looked stunning then too.
it's sad that such a capable and talented person has such a hellish legacy as a mom. i can't confirm the veracity of the stories, but they still disturb me as stories alone, no less.
