Oh Dear God it's the Bush Twins "Vogue" photos...my eyes! My eyes!

http://www.style.com/vogue/feature/071404



It is Mother's Day, and Barbara and Jenna Bush, the president's twin daughters, are, fittingly, spending the evening in Manhattan with their mother. The first lady's in town for official business the next day, and her daughters have some too, sort of: a photo shoot, their first ever, for which they're trying on clothes in a room at the Central Park South hotel where all three are staying. Barbara, who like her sister will graduate from college in two weeks, is a bit preoccupied—she has a long night ahead finishing a paper on Czech novelist Milan Kundera, and another to write the next day for the same English seminar at Yale. Still, she manages to find a shimmery fitted Zac Posen to step into, while Jenna goes straight for a pair of Joe's jeans and a white jacket that accentuates her tan. The girls, who call each other "Sister," are having fun rifling through the racks, approving or nixing each other's choices, but then they get to a flotilla of enormous debutante-style ball gowns. This is clearly not their preferred look—both arrived in skinny jeans and little tops; Barbara, the avowed clotheshorse of the two, says she "lives" in her jade-green, pointed-toe Marni flats and is far more drawn to the elegant chiffon evening looks of Narciso Rodriguez and Carolina Herrera. But they are unfailingly polite and apparently good sports, so they agree to give the gowns a go. When their mother sticks her head in to say she's about to order dinner from room service, she takes in Jenna's poufy cream tulle: "That looks like what I wore to my seventh-grade dance." Jenna looks at her sister, whose tight-bodiced white satin number boasts a skirt better suited to a Velazquez infanta. "Mom," she asks, "do we look like cupcakes?" "Yes," says the first lady, "you do."

I've heard that legend before, many times. I find it very hard, if not impossible, to believe. Could be true, but so could the tales of a mutant species of giant alligators living in the sewers of New York.

I know that for a fact, because I know who she is.

passing by any New York sewers......

:puke:

but they are attractive.

these 2 pictures do them a grave injustice. I wonder if that was intentional...

However, since they've started working on Dubby's campaign, they no longer have amnesty from being trashed.

That would only make sense if they were doing it voluntarily. Do you really think they are? I've heard the RW media spin that they volunteered, but I don't know if I buy it.

This is the man who requires fealty oaths signed before you can show up at his rally.

I think he's not above beating -- or worse -- his daughters to keep them in line.

Of course, this is pure speculation. :shrug:

They could say "Fuck this" if they wanted.

I wonder how easy it would be for me to say "fuck this" if employees of my dad -- with guns -- followed me around 24/7, though.

I just....something feels wrong about the whole thing. A couple of spoiled party animals suddenly develop this intense interest in politics and want to go campaigning? It's fishy.

Who knows for sure? :shrug:

One group of "kids" can relate to one of the twins while another group can relate to the other twin.

What a darling republican propaganda scheme!

Barbara reminds me a little too much of Joan and / or Melissa Rivers. And I'm guessing that chin line on Jenna was Photoshopped a bit.

it's that good "breeding"

The light is bad

you can see a couple of Bud Light cans under the chair I think.

on edit:but to give them the benefit of the doubt it may be their Dads

:puke:

:puke:

:puke:

:bounce:

Barbara is a butternothing

because of all their puff pieces on rightwing politicos and airhead debuntantes. It's now the print equivalent of Paris Hilton's TV show.

Isn't Jessica Simpson on the cover this month?

Of course, Anna Wintour is as big a whore as any of them.

they've failed to perceive the cultural shifts. They're still chasing the Republican blondes. Better to read Elle or Marie Claire. Vogue is like that sad girl who was always trying to get you to like her so she could date your cute brother.

I think it's just an unfortunate coincidence of her dress getting caught on an armrest, but that first photo makes it look as if she's sitting with her legs spread wide open.

Is it just me?

You know the photographer probably shot 100 photos of these two during the photo shoot. And only 2 were decent enough to put in with the article? If there had been more good photos, the article would have been littered with them. As a model, I would be appalled if I only got two decent shots out of a photo session.

dead-drunk, that is!

Are they using booze in the recipe if so then yes girls you do look like cupcakes ;)

The only difference between Melissa Rivers and Barbara Bush is that one has Joan Rivers for a mom, the other doesn't.

Don't even get me started on Jenna.



:evilgrin:

And she is still not as cute as *'s daughter.

Eerie.

Listen, as a straight male, I have to say it, the girls are good looking, okay, they are, end of story enough said. I am not going to hate on them cause they are Bush's kids.

Considering how liberal both of them are.
