agree with moschops. hair odd. Dh said this - and coming from HIM, that is something. She looks really old. Very odd.

chegirl · 07/01/2009 17:12

She still looks better than me.

I wondered if she was recovering from chemo - it was my first thought actually.

She has that sort of growing my hair back hairstyle.

I also hate the way she say blooootid.

Oblomov · 07/01/2009 17:15

i thought thta too chegirl - wondered if she had been ill.

chegirl · 07/01/2009 18:17

Yes Obs but clebs dont tend to do that quietly do they so I was all confused.

I am pleased to learn I am not the only one tho

GossipMonger · 07/01/2009 18:19

I am a northerner too so I can slate her accent but I am sure she is putting it on more than she needs too!!

Never hated her but turn the ad off now as it totally irritates me.

SoccerMum · 10/01/2009 14:44

I think its great that she looks so awful ..even 2 stone overweight I look better than her for once!

ReginaFelange · 10/01/2009 14:49

Don't like the adverts much. Don't have anything against Nell but the hair is not nice

NoNickname · 10/01/2009 14:52

Isn't the "pixie" look - a la Posh - supposed to be the Next Big Thing? Perhaps she's going for that look???

KingRolo · 10/01/2009 14:55

I thought it was Veronica off Shameless at first.

LoveMyLapTop · 10/01/2009 15:02

I hate the way she says 'bloated' and pats her tummy as if it is huge - yes right!
awful clothes
terrible acting
she should stick to the exercise videos

mamalovesmojitos · 11/01/2009 16:12

ha when i saw this thread i had to post.

i'm the same - the ad drives me crazy but i'm not sure why. i don't mind the northern accent. just crap acting.

Diva0507 · 11/01/2009 23:20

is she not from northern area? her hair is a bit short, lonegr bob may be better.

SameAsYou · 11/01/2009 23:26

Yes she is a true Leeds girl - not to far from me. Thats how we say bloated!

Diva0507 · 11/01/2009 23:38

well, then whats wwrong with "bloathed" i thought she was faking it when saw people posted here. i think she is trying to be mumsy on the advert. will be granny in 40 years, im old and bloathed, eat danone.

castlesintheair · 12/01/2009 13:42

She is gorgeous to look at in RL. Really nice too. We all need to earn a crust somehow ...

DrNortherner · 15/01/2009 14:36

She is from Leeds.

Her ad is not as bad as teh ad for Mel B's fitness DVD - have you heard her?!

MrsTucky · 21/01/2009 18:49

2 words about that ad...........Naf and annoying. (although that's actually 3 words)

Scorta · 21/01/2009 18:50

I am not bloated anymore

lottiejenkins · 21/01/2009 21:41

I remember years ago Mel B doing a talent competition and her roaring away "Ow maaaaaaaaaany votes?" Grating to say the least!
