PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

Did anyone else notice that whenever Christie was out and about on this 5K run she had those awful, thick-rimmed granny glasses on? Maybe she thought they legitimized her or something but I thought it just looked weird. Anyone else???

I noticed that too. I wonder if she has a prescription for them or if they are merely to make her feel "smarter".

YES! Her random vision problems drive me nuts! They are so in consistent. I love how they turn dark when outside or in a sunny room. Remember when she sat through the alcoholic support group meeting with shades on. She looked like a blind pimp. I don't know who is more pretensious, Christie or Sommer.

I think of 2 things when she has her glasses on: 1)An old lady who sits wrapped in a thick shawl with her orthopedic heavy black shoes on and her knee hi stocking rolled down her legs (like Vicki Lawrence when she played Mama on Mama's Family) and 2)The computer geek with his horn rimmed glasses, black pants, white shirt, white socks with black shiny shoes and a pocket protector for his pens. They don't make her look intelligent or fashionable at all.

LOL, JustBNMe!I am annoyed with Christie's glasses for the following reason: I think she wears them in an effort to look "intellectual", even though she has an extremely limited vocabulary, and, judging from her website, an inability to write or spell correctly. Christie is so judgemental herself, that she expected to be judged by the women at the women's organization. She even had to ask them if it was okay that she doesn't have a college degree. In an effort to look "smart" and "professional", she put on what she must have thought was her businesswoman look...the glasses, the gaucho pants <<eyeroll>>, boots, and business portfolio. Instead, she looked stupid---like a child playing dress-up. If she wants to be taken seriously, she should learn how to talk properly rather than plopping on a pair of eyeglasses.

That style of glasses are often seen as the schoolgirl look but I can think of other reasons why she might wear them at times. If they are photosensitive she probably wears them as her sunglasses. It would make sense to wear them outdoors or when leaving the house. If they are prescription it's cheaper to have photosensitive prescription glasses than one pair of clear glasses and another pair of prescription sunglasses. Also if she's nervous about facing strangers she might be tempted to keep wearing them as a way to hide a little bit. That could fit the situation at Passages where she was clearly uncomfortable. She might have just left them on after she walked indoors once she saw all the people who made her feel outclassed. I wear contact lenses now but when I had photosensitive glasses I didn't really need them at conversation distance. I only took them off, though, if I was sure I wouldn't lose them and if I was comfortable with the people around me. I guess an observer would have had trouble telling my glasses wearing patterns, too.

Is she the female answer to Clark Kent? Oh that's right, she wants to be a super model. That must be her look to avoid the papparazzi. After Starting Over she will go on America's Next Top Model. Then the Biggest Loser, Then Blind Date, then Divorce Court, then back to Starting Over.

I love Christie's glasses!! They're very fashionable and in style right now, and I think they look very good on her, fit her face shape and all.And Twinkles said: "If they are photosensitive she probably wears them as her sunglasses. It would make sense to wear them outdoors or when leaving the house." "I wear contact lenses now but when I had photosensitive glasses I didn't really need them at conversation distance. I only took them off, though, if I was sure I wouldn't lose them and if I was comfortable with the people around me." I too take my glasses on and off at various times. I need them for distance, to see where I'm going, but they bug me for reading, so they're on and off all the time, and I'm hardly thinking about what other people are judging me to be just because of whether my glasses are on or off. They're strictly for me, and my vision deficiencies.

Quote: standinmytruth "Don't bash me and fellow posters." and Quote: annie828 "He's been bashing posts all day. Obviously a friend of the hg's."Well, I don't know a soul on SO, I'm not a friend of anyone that's involved, and when UWSider said "LORD, I feel sorry for these women!" I have to agree with him. Yes, these women knowingly put themself on tv, but I daresay MOST of them did it to get help with problems they were having, not for the tv exposure, and it amazes me how they get picked apart for their hair and their voice and their looks and their clothes and every such thing, how they can be so 'hated' for their appearance rather than their behavior. No wonder they're told to stay off the message boards by the life coaches. It must be very hard to read some of this stuff. Quote: standinmytruth "Christie's glasses show up ONLY in situations where she is desperate to seem intellectual and in control of her out of control life." That you see. Niambi says in her MySpace that the cameras are on them 18 hours a day, that they're in your face when you're waking up in the morning until you go to bed at night. But we see maybe five to ten minutes a day of the footage of each of them, less on some days. So it's a stretch to say Christie ONLY wears them in certain situations. I've seen her wearing them when she's lounging around on the couch (which she does an awful lot of the time) and in any number of other situations as well.

Christie has a self-esteem issue and told Rhonda that she didnt feel qualified to create the 5-K race because she has not gone to college. SOOOOOOOOOOOOO she puts on those funky looking glasses to make herself appear intellectual. It isnt' working and it only makes her look STUPID. The only time she wears them is when she wants to impress someone. She feels very inferior I'm guessing.

They look like "old lady" glasses to me. Maybe she's just accessorizing her whiny "old lady" voice.
