Me too! She's a legend!

Gruntfuttock · 17/09/2015 22:45

Why do you say you have "a massive girly crush" rather than saying that you like her? Is there a difference?

Hamiltoes · 17/09/2015 23:30

Course there is a difference. Girl crush is on another level from liking Wink

Itsacoupleofsongswhocares · 17/09/2015 23:39

Massive difference. I've always considered myself 100% straight until oII watched Pauley Perrette in NCIS.. massive girl crishon her Wink

Itsacoupleofsongswhocares · 17/09/2015 23:40

Until I (obviously)

AbbyCadabra · 18/09/2015 00:37

Pauley Perrette must bathe in the blood of slaughtered innocents or something. The first time I saw her age mentioned in an article I assumed it was a mistake. It wasn't. She looks absolutely sensational.

NuffSaidSam · 18/09/2015 00:48

Pauley Perrette is 46?! Shock

Bloody hell, some sort of witchcraft surely. It's actually frightening!

lorelei9 · 18/09/2015 01:03

If i was going to have a girl crush, it would be Dana Delany from Body of Proof. I cannot believe her age either.

Anne Reid is very sweet, I can imagine wanting her to adopt me Grin

Hamiltoes · 18/09/2015 02:00

I've never had a girl crush like the one I had when Ruby Rose joined Orange Is The New Black. I think she could turn me, I really do.

TheDowagerCuntess · 18/09/2015 02:05

Orla Brady is another one who seems to defy the aging process. She's 50-freaking-4... Looks at least 20 years younger...

maras2 · 18/09/2015 02:15

Who do you have to shag round here to get appreciation for the lovely Anne Reid? Perhaps you grunt Grin.

I told my husband last night I'd leave him for Victoria Coren-Mitchell Blush

Sallystyle · 18/09/2015 05:53

Mine right now is Ruby Rose.

I adore her look.

DontDrinkandFacebook · 18/09/2015 06:02

She is the most fabulous actress, a true national treasure.

DontDrinkandFacebook · 18/09/2015 06:03

Anne Reid I mean!

Baconyum · 18/09/2015 06:39

Just watched on catch up. Completely disagree, she is defending even looking up to a violent, abusive, irresponsible drunk who stole from his father in law and left his wife to do the job he was being paid for! So then was googling Anne Reid herself, looks like she was an ow who fell pregnant while the father was still married! Not so 'sweet' after all.

DontDrinkandFacebook · 18/09/2015 06:52

I haven't seen the programme Bacon just love her as an actor.

lorelei9 · 18/09/2015 09:54

no one else for Ms Delany? It's almost Sherlockian!

BastardGoDarkly · 18/09/2015 10:02

Hamiltoes yes to ruby rose, jaysus, she's hot!

MrsGentlyBenevolent · 18/09/2015 10:33

Gruntfuttock, I agree. I'm not sure if the OP is expressing a like for someone, or coming out of the closet for the older lady. Both, of course fine, but there's a difference.

SaucyJack · 18/09/2015 10:36

Do you want to caress her bottom in the British Home Stores?

lorelei9 · 18/09/2015 10:50

SaucyJack - well done, 10.49 a.m. and you won Post of the Day already Grin

KissingFish · 18/09/2015 11:00

I don't get the Ruby Rose fixation all the straight girls have, and I'm gay Wink

Laura Prepon however can come jump in my bed any time she likes. Grin

CorbynsTopButton · 18/09/2015 11:33

I hear you.

I still can't bring myself to acknowledge the "Mitchell" bit.

BodieBroadus · 18/09/2015 11:37

I don't even watch OITNB but saw some pictures of Ruby Rose and my girl crush started...I have no idea what it is about her look, but she's doing something right.
