Billie Piper does not fit the part


To me, Billie Piper is not pretty enough or shapely enough for the part, and I don't like the way she speaks (inflection, facial expressions, etc.). From that aspect alone, the series is disappointing. The title does not exclude other call girls' diaries, so I would like to see a different actress next year.

You're crazy! She's stunning. And not many call girls are. If they're really that beautiful they become actors or models.

All your complaints were about her anatomy. Rise above that, man, because you've no business rating anyone if that's how you do it.

reply

She's very attractive, but she's just doing a job as best she can.

Why not do what she is trying - play such a demeaning character on TV and see how well you can do it. People will watch and get off on it anyway.

reply

Because all prostitutes are super models right?

I actually think she played the part brilliantly. At first I didn't like her either but as I watched the whole show I fell in love with her acting.

What a ridiculous discussion. This actress looks fantastic. She has a great body. She looks very good in any kind of makeup or costume. Any guy would feel gobsmacked to have her show up when he called the call girl service. If you have ever seen any documentaries on real call girls, they don't look that great. It's pretty hard on your self esteem, your body, your nerves. They look kind of worn down.

I want everyone who made a stupid comment about her not being attractive to send us a picture of yourself, naked, having sex on TV; and then we will make various comments about how you look and whether we think you are attractive or not.

Right on! I agree with every single word, Safeweb310. Wow, I've only seen a few snippets I've downloaded, but come on, the kind of girl I'd get if I ordered a prostitute wouldn't look like this lovely bird with the long blonde hair and the cute face. Of course pettiness and jealousy overflows in the hearts of onlookers, and people say these lousy things to feel better about themselves. A girl who looks like this is absolutely dreamsville, take it from me, I study glamorous foxes :) and know what I am talking about. This chick is hot, most of us are just not, and we're not making ourselves prettier by deriding her. Might feel that way while they are posting snide comments, but no, they're just dripping vinegar, and that looks bad!

In fact, she is like way, way, way TOO BEAUTIFUL to be relegated to the life of a prostitute. She'd be snapped up as model/actress JUST LIKE SHE WAS IN REAL LIFE so that sinks any countering argument right here, huh?

Money can't buy what she's got.

Can Billie Piper come out and play with me now?

Do any of you guys ever known a sex worker? Most of the doesn't look like centerfolds.

And Megan Fox vs Billie Piper? That's like Lily Allen vs Katy Perry.

Bit hash if you ask me... She might not be the idealistic size 0 but she is seriously hot.
