HORRIBLE actress...why is she in Movies????

I am sure shes a sweetie in real life and shes certainly beautiful, but I saw Baggage Claim on the plane and I have to say Paula is one of the worst actresses I have ever seen. Shes got a dazzling pageant smile which might work in pageants, but not for every scene in a movie. She does this signature squinty/eyes which is cute when you first see it but gosh it gets old! When she cries she does this odd pouty face which is cute if you are a 4 year old but not a 30 something woman in a dramatic scene. She has awful delivery and it just had to stop watching it because her horrible acting was getting too distracting from the plot...I dont even remember what the movie was even about.

She should be grateful for Robin because if it wasnt for him (and his actor/comedian father) she probably wouldnt have had a shot in any movie. Her status and maybe her looks got her the part because she has no acting ability.

Paula, stop acting and start modeling or coaching pageants!!!!

Ya I found her annoying in every scene of 2 Guns. I dont know if its her normal face but I feel like she's always trying to make a sexy squint or something. And the calm low raspy voice to go with it. Ruined many scenes.

maybe her looks got her the part because she has no acting ability.

That is 90 percent of Hollywood,only 10 percent of the actors in movies and tv shows actually are good actors,the rest are just so so or terrible

I agree!! I'm trying to watch Somewhere Between and she is ruining it with her acting. I won't get past the first episode. Sad.

That whole show is meaningless, sadly, iirc.
