We got them to be able to see last summer&#8217;s  Olympics in all their glory, and that situation was great.  The images of London were just spectacular.  And I can&#8217;t wait to see all the fireworks shows next Fourth of July.<\/p>\n<p>But now the reality sets in.  We get to see every&#8230;single&#8230;person who&#8217;s on television the way they look in person, which is usually far from great, and even worse, we now have <em>giant screens<\/em> as well.  In many cases, these people look terrible.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not saying that <em>I&#8217;d<\/em> fare any better if I were still doing <em>my<\/em> show, but at least I have good teeth and hair and not many wrinkles.  Yet.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s my list of people I&#8217;ve seen so far in hi-def whom I wish I hadn&#8217;t, and the feature that got them on this list.  [Note: as I&#8217;m writing this, I actually feel bad about it.  Most are probably nice people, but I thought you&#8217;d enjoy a little snarking.  And it&#8217;s not meant to be mean at all, or even funny, for that matter.  It&#8217;s just honest.]<\/p>\n<p>See if you agree, and if I missed anyone.  [Note #2: I actually wrote most of this list about ten months ago, which explains the plethora of sports personalities on it, but have been sitting on it because I was worried that perhaps it&#8217;s a tad <em>too<\/em> honest.  So, just take it with a grain of salt, and if you&#8217;re not an on-screen personality, count your blessings nowadays!]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11629\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.itsnotaboutme.tv\/news\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beautiful-Hope-Solo-e1371485862551.jpg\" title=\"Hope Solo\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11629\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11629\" title=\"Hope Solo\" src=\"http:\/\/www.itsnotaboutme.tv\/news\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beautiful-Hope-Solo-e1371485919412-300x266.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"266\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11629\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hope Solo.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Hope Solo\u2014her skin is as rotten as her personality.<\/p>\n<p>Will Ferrell&#8211;skin and teeth<\/p>\n<p>Gabby Douglas\u2014teeth, especially bottom ones, and skin and hair<\/p>\n<p>Michael Keaton\u2014wrinkles galore<\/p>\n<p>Dennis Murphy (reporter on <em>Dateline<\/em>)\u2014dandruff<\/p>\n<p>Bobby Valentine (former Mets and Red Sox manager)&#8211; I used to think he was kind-of cute-looking, for an older, rough man, but when I saw his nose hair, and even worse, his <em>ear<\/em> hair, I almost threw-up!<\/p>\n<p>Jordyn Wieber\u2014I hate including her in here, because she already had all that sadness in the Olympics, but as bad as I feel for her, did you notice her uneven nostrils?  I wonder if that can be fixed.<\/p>\n<p>Serena Williams\u2014take your pick here from among the plethora of things I didn&#8217;t want to see: sideburns, moustache, splotchy skin, and disheveled brows.  But I do give her credit for losing weight.  (At least she had when I first put her on this list many months ago.  I haven&#8217;t seen her recently because I didn&#8217;t pay much attention to the recent French Open.)<\/p>\n<p>John McEnroe&#8211;his white nose hairs are what inspired this column to begin with! \u00a0But, after suffering through having to look at his pasty-white skin, and dull white hair, during the Olympics, I was thrilled to discover that he got a spray tan and colored his hair for the US Open! \u00a0Trust me on how much those small changes helped!  Let&#8217;s hope he&#8217;s kept them up for next week&#8217;s Wimbledon coverage.<\/p>\n<p>Tracey Austin&#8211;wrinkled face and arms!  I&#8217;m sure that&#8217;s all due to her many hours on the outdoor tennis courts, especially in the years before sunscreen.  Let that be a lesson to all you sun lovers!  Still has the lovely hands and nails, though.<\/p>\n<p>Megan Hilty\u2014I&#8217;ve seen her on every episode of <em>Smash<\/em>, and even in person at a show she did in town a few years ago, but I had never noticed that her arms and chest are full of very dark moles!!!  So, I guess that hi-def could become a dermatologist&#8217;s dream!<\/p>\n<p>Steve Buscemi&#8211;teeth, of course!  I always wondered how his wife could kiss him, and then, on an awards show walk-ins, I noticed hers are bad, too!<\/p>\n<p>Tina Fey\u2014mouth scar.  I didn&#8217;t know it was that bad.  But it sure hasn&#8217;t kept her down!  Good to know.  But I hadn&#8217;t realized she had a nose job until hi-def!<\/p>\n<p>Emily VanCamp\u2014big nose, little teeth, no lips, and drooped eyelids.  But somehow, she&#8217;s still attractive!  You go, girl.<\/p>\n<p>On the good side: tennis commentator Mary Jo Fernandez&#8217;s hair is even more shiny and gorgeous!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PEOPLE I&#8217;VE SEEN IN HI-DEF WHOM I WISH I HADN&#8217;T! &nbsp; Now that I have hi-def TVs, I sometimes wish that I didn&#8217;t.
