Patty Does Shopping
The commenters at the site where I found these photos think Patricia looks “middle aged” and “ugly.” They are idiots. It is sad, sad, sad when people are unable to distinguish between Hollywood and real life.
Real people do not wear full pancake makeup every day.
Real people actually age.
Real people do not have the advantage of airbrushing or a vaseline-covered camera lens to make them look soft and perfect 24/7.
Good grief, can you imagine what it must be like to have people following you around all the time, just waiting to get a picture of you? Preferably looking less than perfect or doing something unwise?
I wish I looked that good without makeup. And look! She actually does her hair and puts on real clothes (as opposed to sweats) when she leaves the house for something other than work. I find that amazing.

Thanks for sharing that, Sheila. It is great to see some pictures of her since she is such a private person. And you’re right about her appearance. I LOVE that she is a real woman and doesn’t feel like she has to impress anyone with her looks. Not that she has to try. I think she is one of the most beautiful women in the world, especially in Hollywood. I admire her for not giving in to the whole Hollywood idea of what constitutes beauty. Patty ROCKS!!!

I actually think she looks amazing her. Did she layer her hair more?
Seriously, she looks more comfortable and that makes her look more beautiful.

Wow! I think she looks great! After all, look at that ensem she is wearing - all perfectly matched - not unlike what she wears as Allison Dubois. Compared to a lot of stars that look like white trash or worse when they are out, I think she looks amazing.
Don’t these people realize that most photos they see of these people have been photo shopped, air brushed, and otherwise altered to remove wrinkles, spots, bags, even flab? Remember when there was all that hoo haa about Katie Couric taking over the evening news on CBS and they showed a pic of her that had been altered? She’s about as big as my little finger and they still altered her size in the photo!
I was just thinking yesterday - what prompted it was an ad for “The Real Housewives of Orange County” where the bodies are fake but the diamonds are real - those women look terrible! They all have bleached hair that looks so brittle you could bend it and break it - they have so many injections of collagen and botox and who knows what else that by the time they turn 50 they no longer even look human! Their faces look like a mountain range or something all lumpy and bumpy and their lips look like something out of a sci fi movie! They wear so much makeup they look like a racoon. Then they have the fake finger nails so long you could use them as a weapon - it’s impossible to do any housework or cooking with those kind of nails.
I liked Lisa Rinna on Dancing with the Stars and on Soap Talk, although she could be annoying, but her upper lip doesn’t even look like a lip any more! It looks awful - although she has a killer body - it’s probably not all real.

Arieanna: You’re right. She does look amazingly beautiful here. I can’t believe people can be so cruel to say that she isn’t just because she isn’t wearing makeup or happen to be stick-thin like most women in Hollywood. I love the natural Patricia. It just reinforces my belief that a woman doesn’t have to look a certain way to be beautiful.

Sheila: Have you been back to that site? There are some new comments up and a lot of people are agreeing with us. It’s nice to hear someone else say what we feel, and know that we’re not the only ones who think she’s beautiful.

Yes, Patricia looks great and real. That is why she is so great, she doesn’t have to be fake and made up all the time.
She has said in interviews over the past 5 years or so that when she isn’t working and is out in public shopping, etc., her hair is a mess and she wears no makeup. I love it.
I love her outfit in these pics too, and espeically the white shirt and sportcoat. That looks 100% better than all these pictures of super skinny celeb women in leasure suits. If I see one more shiney Leisure Suit at an airport I am going to scream.

I don’t see anything wrong with her! She looks like a real person, unlike most of the people in Hollywood. I really like that her outfit. Her clothes actually have material unlike the stuff so many people where these days. Good for her!

I think she looks amazing in these photos! I agree–the clothes are great and show that she has a natural, classic sense of style.
