She’s unattractive but has a cute personality. Is she dating that guy from office? she tweets him a lot.

She looks good in the letterman clip but that’s because she is slim and is wearing sexy mini dress.

Just an observation. I've also seen those youtube videos and one of the tactics used by the video makers is to use before photos that always have poor lighting which brings out their baggy, puffy eyes and the after photos are of the actresses with more make up than they usually wear in movies with extreme bright lighting. It has also been shown that make up only increases attractiveness by 33% or less (google it), so people who are stunning with make up are still good looking without.</p> “she looks cute enough on the cover IMO. make up can do many things. go to youtube and look up bollywood stars without makeup. mindy kaling might not be lookin’ so bad after you see that :-)

i think her parents are different ethnicities. one bengali, the other tamil, so that is part of the reason.

But I don’t know why Americans of Asian descent would be expected to write in a language that’s not their own…I mean 60% of the world is asian, it’s not like we have a shortage of asians writing in asian languages!

agreed.
