Natasha Lyonne ghastly Variety cover

I'm glad she tried something new, but I think she needs to stick to the bushy curls to balance out that face.

That's a very bad wig isn't it.

Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman.

I'm getting a Louise Lasser homage.

That makeup artist was cruel.

Her heart stopped from constant drug overdoses. She was scoring drugs in some of the most dangerous places in the US. She’s lucky to even be alive.

Why would you put someone on the cover of Variety dressed that way?

I like her, but that cover pushes the limits of my unconditional support.

“The Power of Women Issue” with a woman in her underwear. Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.

She looks like the slutty mother of a heap of Oompa Loompas, all with different fathers.

Didn't Nicole Kidman don a similar look?

Eeek.

I'm getting a Carol Channing vibe.

She's thin. And I like that the blouse isn't new.

Natasha Lyonne Shows Her Cards: The ‘Poker Face’ Star on Quitting Smoking and Wanting to Play More Feminine Characters

a young redheaded Pasty Stone.

Her and Tara Reid aged like milk.

Dr. Frank N Furter

Reminds me of the Lucy puppet somehow.

She forgot to put on her skirt and showed up for St. Ursula Academy photo day only half-dressed!

She comes across charmingly in the article, it made me want to actually check out the show. It’s a shame they didn’t style her properly for the photos.

Why did she forget to put her pants on?

Nobody wants to see her control top pantyhouse.

Does anyone know people that talk like Natasha Lyonne in real life?

Are they putting it on? Like Sophia Vergara playing up her accent to be unique? Obviously Hilaria Baldwin doesn't count.

I never bought that Fran Drescher wasn't hamming it up.

Remember when they posed Fassbender half nude on a cover of The Hollywood Reporter? I think the trades like to make fun of these actor’s egos. It’s a cruel joke.

Glad she’s stopped her chain smoking.

Her middle name is Sierra

Her nose gives me Michael Jackson vibes. Actually, so does her eyeliner and lipstick.

DL fave insult: “aged like milk” but that just suggests delicious cheese.

Listen, she’s really talented. Just really distinctive.

For a while there, she was a fatal overdose waiting to happen.

Wonderful to see her thriving.

She's now basically Patti Deutsch meets Eva Braun.

It looks like a ratchet Latino queen on Snatch Game tried to pull off Ann-Marget.

I can't place it but I feel like this image is an homage to an older image from the 60s or 70s of some British actress, with the same hair & styling. Or maybe it's a ripoff. Who knows.

I adore Natasha, but she needs a style intervention by someone who "gets" her look and knows how to complement it while letting her personality shine through.

I think she's cool. Lots of chutzpah and personality

Oh, she's fine! I think she looks cool. They shoulda stuck a cigar in her mouth. And given her Twiggy bottom lashes.

I've always had a fondness for Natasha and rooted for her.

Here is the Variety article with a few other photos. They should've used the picture of her in the chair for the cover. It was more flattering.

Her eyes look so weird that I thought she must be someone who’s famous for being brave about their medical problem but it’s just a bad angle

I love her but this is just terrible.

I can't help but like her. She's brash, funny, and one-of-a-kind. I am surprised she is not dead. She was a hardcore raving drug addict for years, and gave herself heart damage from intravenous drug-induced infections that resulted in her having to have open-heart surgery. That's one hell of a wakeup call, but I think it's what got her clean. I had open-heart surgery in my twenties to correct a congenital defect/aneurysm, and that shit ain't for sissies. She's survived a lot. Like Courtney Love, I think Natasha is a cockroach who will likely outlive us all.

patti deutsch

I adore Natasha to the point I would wear her bath water in a vile around my neck but WTF.

David Bowie & Louise Lasser made a baby?

R43 LOL! .. The first thing I saw was "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman"

She’s a smoker. There’s no helping that when there’s aging as well.

With the wig she's in Tori Amos territory.

Weren't they going to do a revival of Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman? I think she'd be good in the role of Mary.

^They were, with Emily Hampshire, but it got nixed.

I'm getting a simian vibe.

I love Emily Hampshire, she's a great actress. I first noticed her in 12 Monkeys on SyFy

Remember when stylists were like a trusted friends and made you not only look great but impossibly great? Not. Anymore.

R24, it seems like part of her shtick now.

In this old clip of her and Chloe Sevigny (the guy finally shuts up around 1:20) it is far more subtle.

BTW, it's time for a Chloe thread. We haven't had a good one since was pregnant. I don't know enough about her to start one, all I know about her is she doesn't like animals.

^WHOOPSIES!

That makeup and hair are extremely harsh for her complexion. They should have made her edgy in a Chloë Sevigny look instead.

Chloe Sevigny is a model who can float in her model looks .They should play up Natasha edgy like Annie Lennox.

Yep, Lasser hair.

She's a great podcast guest. Google her.

That's how the cover should look, but we have these whine bags who cry about their bodies issues and immediately blame their issues on Vogue Magazine for airbrushing Lauren Hutton's gap teeth in 1981.

Take responsibility for your own actions for once and all.
