    Wow, you’re right, I haven’t seen her smile that widely in previous pictures.




  2. Anat Says:

    This is because the camel is actually straight.




  3. Anonymous Says:

    Got his hump on.




  4. AugustFalcon Says:

    I don’t think I have ever seen a camel smile quite like that either.




  5. Eric Scheie Says:

    I’d walk a mile . . .

    Hey Penney …

    There once was a hump in “Sahara”
    who liked to wear heavy mascara
    He pumped up his chest
    with a subdermal vest
    But alas he just couldn’t bear ya

    The Manolo he got a link from the Instapundit! The Manolo he has hit the big time, indeed!

    The Dan he wonders why the straight girl posing as a girlfriend to the gay man, she is called the “beard.”




  9. Manolo the Shoeblogger Says:

    The beard, like the beautiful woman on the arm, it is the supposed proof of “masculinity”.




  10. Nichevo Says:

    “Beard” has also applied (see Lawrence Sanders novels) to a situation where a married man with a lover has another man accompany the happy pair to say a restaurant or a play, so they can appear together in public without being detected–ostensibly she is dating or is “with” the other man; the other man is the ‘beard.’ In general I think it applies to anyone who allows somebody to pose as other than what they are.

    And here I thought we were going to see camel toe.




  12. Robb Says:

    Interesting. I always thought the term “beard” referenced a disguise. Like the gay man keeps a beautiful woman on his arm to disguise his homosexuality. In other words, she masks his true identity like a fake beard and mustache would.

    P. Cruz is fantastic. And I’m sure her new friend can go a lot longer without water than her previous beau.

    Actually, I think that’s a baby camel.




  16. Dr. Graham Laszlo Says:

    A beard is the fellow that accompanies a friend’s lady/man (there are variations, of course) whilst he is out of town on business.

    The beard is a manly chap, with Honor solid as gold who accompanies his friends’ lady around town and keeps a truly platonic relationship — s/He is there to keep an eye on him/her for the friend.

    Is only my opinion, is all.

    The media girl, she says run do not walk to Manolo’s new site and laugh like a seal.
