Plea from a Dude: Make the False Lashes Stop!

Editor's Note: This letter was written by my boyfriend, a man who didn't notice when I chopped six inches off my hair, but did notice this "alarming" (in his words) red carpet trend.

Dear Hot Actresses,

I noticed something while watching the Oscars last night. No, it wasn't your cleavage, or your legs -- well, I did notice those but that's not what I'm here to discuss.

I'm talking about the massive amounts of false eyelashes weighing down the lids of so many of you. True, in moderation eye makeup can be sexy, but frankly, you could have the most beautiful eyes in the world, but if they can only open half way due to those spider legs on your eyeballs, then I'm just going to be weirded out.

I've got four words for you: don't try so hard. Sure, put on some mascara, and my girlfriend says that false eyelashes can be done subtly, (I guess like this), but you don't need to do much more than that. This goes for all the "normal" women out there too -- guys already think you're hot; you don't need to wear caterpillars for eyelashes.

I couldn't stop staring at Sandra Bullock, Anne Hathaway and Brooklyn Decker, but not in a good way, their eyelashes just made them look sleepy (maybe James Franco was wearing them too? nah) -- I'm thinking that's the opposite of what they had in mind when they put together their Oscar look (or rather, their hair and makeup team did, I've heard all about what really goes on on the red carpet).

So in the future, please tone down the false lashes so guys like me can stop being distracted and start noticing more important things, like your boobs -- uh, I mean, all the intelligent things you're saying ...

Editor's Note: What do you think? Is my boyfriend on the right track with the crazy false lashes? Or is he being over-dramatic?
