I dunno, but IMO, one predictor of when a guy is going down the tubes is when they start to pluck and shape their eyebrows.

It's all downhill after that.

It's possible that he did that because he was on stage. I bet he wore makeup too.

The PS skill to be funny is a powerful thing. Thanks for the laugh.

Only dated one real redhead. I want my albums back.

It's possible, yes... but it's not mandatory that eyebrows be "perfect" just because you are a performer.

What I'm referring to is guys (happens with some women, too) who begin that long, downward spiral of obsessing over minute facial details. In my observation of such people in real life and showbiz, it's usually an indicator of deep problems that I wouldn't wish on anybody.

Mike, if you pluck your eyebrows, it doesn't mean you're a sick person.

But you might want to try to stop before it gets worse.

I think Carrot Top has been projecting his deep problems for several years now...and his excessive weightlifting is just the next step in it.





I would never pluck my eyebrows. I need to keep any semblance of hair on my head, since it's self ejecting at a rapid rate

I am/was a redhead. Bald now with a shaven head.

A lot of these comments crack me up.

I was a step child and got beat a lot for some reason though.

I too was raised a redhead. "Carrot Top", "Freckle Faced Strawberry", "suntan thru a screen door" I've heard them all. I think the reason we redheads are considered odd is because we are "children of the moon", at least that's what my Grandma (redhead) told me.

I love redheads, but that's a personal problem.

I have to say I generally go for blondes, but have dated some screamin' hot brunettes and redheads also. How they are is generally more important than how they look.

As my brilliant mother said, in referance to my ex, "Eventually you have to get out of bed and talk to her."

I've dated a few redheads. The last one upped and died of an aneurysm right in front of me (true story).

I stopped dating them after that.

At any rate, blondes are my favorite.

My wife is a blond, she was bored one day and decided to color her hair auburn, a buddy of mine decided that she was now a turbo blond.
I gotta admit I do have a thing for redheads.

I like reds when you can find a pretty one. Actually I like them more of a strawberry blonde like this or maybe a little more red.

I thought that the Ginger kid episode on South Park was hilarious, untill my young son was born, and I could see that bright red hair sticking out. I feel sort of bad for him. One of my best buddies growing up was a ginger kid, and boy did we harass the **** out of him.
But back on topic, yes, I think red heads do it for me. I have only dated one, and all the sterotypes did apply.
