Llkoolaid | Tuesday, March 18, 2003 - 02:50 pm     After the blood in Survivor Africa I can watch anything. |
Seamonkey | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 07:19 pm     Well we survived that.. and the meat looked ok.. Someone posted in another thread that per Milkshakey, Heidi's friend, she was going to train as a NURSE. Now I think it is probably a good thing that with her attitude and body arrogance she isn't teaching phys ed to young people, but I shuddered to think of Heidi forcing herself to minister to people with inferior bodies (in her opinion) who are also sick.. eeek. |
Catfat | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 09:05 pm     Can anyone post a picture of how Heidi looks now that she has lost so much weight? I can't get a clear picture because we live in the boonies and don't have cable, just an antenna that brings in pictures from halfway to the north pole, and all of them are blurry. |
Alaginger | Friday, March 21, 2003 - 10:24 pm     Caption of Heidi in Episode 7, just as she is starting to do her strip routine. First, off with the shirt......

Catfat | Saturday, March 22, 2003 - 09:06 am     Thanks, Alaginger She looks bad, doesn't she? On another thread, there is a blurrred picture of her on the pole and her bony chest is showing. Holy smoke. |
Fruitbat | Saturday, March 22, 2003 - 05:50 pm     Her breast implants are obvious as most are, but I find it particularly revealing that JP made comments. He said that if you were inclined to get them get good ones! And sited checking out physicians in LA or other places that have a reputation, "especially if you were going on TV". They must have really been worse than we see. |
Catfat | Monday, March 24, 2003 - 05:36 pm     I have been thinking about what motivates Heidi to make those really unkind statements. Is it because she was treated like a little blonde princess while she was growing up and has a tremendous belief in herself that she is really beautiful? Or, more likely, she grew up as a homely, insecure little reject, and upon becoming an adult, tried to fix herself up, getting her hair dyed, getting boob implants and capped teeth, wearing contacts instead of glasses. She probably thinks she looks just fine now, and maybe she does when she is all cleaned up and covered up. So now that she is so gorgeous(she thinks) she feels like she is entitled to ostracize other girls whom she considers less beautiful than herself, regardless of their other qualities. Uunfortunately, a lot of other people in the world have the same attitude, not only in the entertainment industry but in the real life too. Are we all ragging on Heidi because she is saying those things, or because she is saying those things and is also homely? Just wondering. |
Dheiner | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 05:55 am     Homely????? Perhaps not drop dead gorgeous, but HOMELY?????? Sorry, your perceptions are NOT shared by me. |
Hermione69 | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 06:17 am     Well, Dheiner, you know what they say... beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes to the bone. Heidi's behavior is very ugly to many people. I don't see her as homely, but I an understand how some might. From preshow pictures and a postshow picture, she is physically eye-catching, but I think her attitude is part of what makes her seem homely to some people. She really has an unlikable attitude. Even Jeff Probst has slammed her in interviews. He does not like her very much, which says a lot to me. She really does seem to think she is so much better than everyone else. The only person she seems to have genuinely bonded with is another woman whom she obviously considers her equal in looks. Roger said in a video clip something along the lines of the only time Heidi has anything to say to Christy is if no one else is around. That is also very revealing, IMHO, of her character. I think that our perceptions of her appearance are strongly influenced by our perceptions of her character. If she was an Elisabeth type, I have no doubt we would be kinder to her about her looks. |
Calamity | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 01:31 pm     I'm not a Heidi fan but also don't think her comments and behavior have been any more outrageous than Thailand Brian's sexist remarks. (I know some believe he was joking or play acting but I got a different impression.) The scene of Heidi, Jenna, and Shawna bathing together looked so awkward that it almost seemed staged to me. And I wouldn't put it past the producers to ask Heidi leading questions once they detected her obvious vanity. For me, her (apparent) rudeness and lack of loyalty to her original tribemates bother me more than the contrived "pretty girls vs. the others" nonsense. Plus I always end up feeling at least a little bad for every player who has incured fans' scorn. I just don't have it in me to kick someone when they're down. |
Catfat | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 03:47 pm     Heidi's not down, she's standing up there tall and proud in her birthday suit. LOL |
Csnog | Friday, March 28, 2003 - 07:14 pm     Eldon school teacher Heidi Strobel is competing on the network show, "Survivor." On last night's episode, she bared her breasts in order to win a competition. Some Mid-Missourians say that sends the wrong message to the community and her students, but Eldon residents KOMU talked to feel differently. Joanne Jones has lived in town for more than 25 years. She says she's seen worse than bare breasts. "Well, it didn't show it... it just showed her taking her clothes off. It blocked it out.. I didn't see a thing wrong with it, and I'm old-fashioned." Strobel teaches physical education at the middle school. Residents and business owners like Harley Race seem supportive of her appearance on "Survivor." "I don't have a problem with it. It's the nature of the show..." The controversy has sparked talk that maybe Strobel will lose her job. Superintendent of the Eldon school district, Rodney Haley, would not talk on camera. But, he did say that the district is disappointed with Heidi Strobel's conduct. Strobel did not return a message we left at the middle school, asking for her side of the story. In fact, the school receptionist told KOMU News that we would have to talk to Strobel's agent first. But, Strobel called a Columbia radio station this morning to respond to critics. She says it's entertainment programming, but she's still devoted to her students. And, evidently, residents like Jones are still devoted to her. "I just want her to win. She's excellent for the community..." |
Fruitbat | Friday, March 28, 2003 - 08:34 pm     I feel badly for this kid. She made some horrible choices on national TV. She will defend herself for a few months and then be horrified. Ohhhhhhhhh to do our 20's over again. Anyone wish they could take back anything? |
Car54 | Friday, March 28, 2003 - 08:51 pm     She will probably get the equivalent of a year's salary for her spell on Survivor (did they get a sub for her classes while she was off?). She can take a year off and let things die down. She will be fine. |
Fruitbat | Friday, March 28, 2003 - 09:17 pm     I have a hunch it will be a long road for to her to feel fine. Her persona on this show is held in contempt my most. She did it and she has to deal with all that means. Too bad though. This is a young kid that will cringe in hindsight. |
Car54 | Friday, March 28, 2003 - 09:40 pm     I agree, especially with the consequences of her actions thing, but she is going back to school, she has money...unless she stays in the Survivor spotlight, it will all go away eventually. She didn't have oral sex on camera...she took her panties off. Something else will come up for people to be outraged about. Other option: Move to California and go on the Bachelor. They would love her on that show. |
Squaredsc | Saturday, March 29, 2003 - 01:18 pm     interesting article about the school district that heidi works for, and it doesn't mention her being laid off or anything. heidi |
Squaredsc | Saturday, March 29, 2003 - 01:25 pm     here is another short article about heidi's stripping. heidi2 |
Spygirl | Saturday, March 29, 2003 - 02:09 pm     At the end of that second article, you can click at link that takes you to a local Eldon message board. The comments about Heidi are ruthless. |
Monkeyboy | Saturday, March 29, 2003 - 03:38 pm     Ouch, i just read some of the comments, spy, these people are p!ssed! |
Pamy | Saturday, March 29, 2003 - 08:03 pm     I bet she doesn't have a job there for long. |
Sia | Saturday, March 29, 2003 - 08:18 pm     I read those messages, too; if I'd had more time last night I'd have posted a protest as well. I think Heidi sets a HORRID example for her impressionable young charges!! |
Tabbyking | Saturday, March 29, 2003 - 08:50 pm     "Heidi was never mean to Christy, and even if she was, Christy probably brought it on herself. ( remember the incidents w/ joanna, and building the shelter...) " i took this from one of the posts defending heidi. is this person watching the same show i am?! you leave my christy out of this, you ole witch!!! don't moderate me! i am not calling any poster on TVCH an ole' witch; |
Tabbyking | Saturday, March 29, 2003 - 08:54 pm     p.s. i am still trying to interpret the message that was just above the one i cut and pasted from... something about a junior high stripper and people who pay to watch or something? i was just saying, 'what podunk town do these people live in?! are they trying to say that someone who teaches strips, or a kid strips? or their KFC has chicken strips? |
Catfat | Sunday, March 30, 2003 - 09:21 am     We haven't had this much to say about a Survivor since Ghandia!!!LOL When Heidi is voted off, who will we gossip about? |
