AIBU to think mumsnet should have a more realistic photo of Goldie horn on its homepage? we all know how old she is and mumsnet is supposed to support real parents, not give us unrealistic imagery to aspire to.

it is hawn....

LentillyFart · 04/03/2012 21:57

Goldie who?

PomBearAtTheGatesOfDawn · 04/03/2012 21:59

Goldie Hawn is a mum too, should she be deprived of naice ham and pom bears support just because she is famous or has "unrealistic pictures" taken of her? She can't help how she looks any more than anyone else can.

Kennyp · 04/03/2012 21:59

I know!!!!! Did you see her on graham norton? So totally the opposite of that picture on the front page.

BigGirlInASmallWorld · 04/03/2012 22:00

Honk honk! I think she is gorgeous, funny and intelligent in interviews.

LineRunner · 04/03/2012 22:01

She looks like fucking Lulu.

Kennyp · 04/03/2012 22:06

Lol at lulu!! When lulu had just popped out of the botox clinic with a BOGOF voucher.

I do like GH but that photo is hardly current.
Like when david brent went on the blind date and gave that picture of him in a white suit pointing at the camera.

YANBU.

I have a vague hard-to-articulate feeling that using such a ridiculously photoshopped picture is somehow "anti-mumsnet"

starwisher · 04/03/2012 22:44

It is very photoshopped

wherearemysocks · 04/03/2012 22:48

It looks more like her daughter

abrakebabra · 04/03/2012 22:48

I didn't realise that Goldie Looking Horn had done a webchat

bibbityisaporker · 04/03/2012 22:51

I thought exactly the same thing when I saw it on the homepage. I mean who is she or anyone else trying to kid? Its utterly ridiculous.

But, erm, really at the error in the thread title!

ObviouslyOblivious · 04/03/2012 22:51

Is he that drum and bass guy with the metal teeth?

Kennyp · 04/03/2012 22:53

Yes, it is the drum and bass guy with metal teeth. The same one who was in housesitter and who lives with kurt russell. Him.

ObviouslyOblivious · 04/03/2012 22:54

I thought so.

Sorry about spelling, I like Goldie and her films, its just the photo that mumsnet have chosen to put on home page.

She also did a famous show in the 1960's called "Round the Horn" and also gave rise to the phrase "she doesn't half give me the horn." MN are lucky to have her.

yousankmybattleship · 04/03/2012 23:20

I agree. She's great, but that photo is rediculous. What is wrong with looking your age?

ArielNonBio · 04/03/2012 23:22

Arf at Horn!

I just assumed that photo was from yonks ago.

QuaaludesAndRedWine · 04/03/2012 23:25

I thought of goldie looking horn too!

tribpot · 04/03/2012 23:27

Goldie is fabulous. But she is not a Time Lord.
