Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony’s Body Language Show They’re Faking It For The Camera

Sunday, January 15th, 2012

Marc Anthony  Jennifer Lopez’s body language told the real story even though the divorcing couple tried to smile and act as though there was no problem between them during their press conference for their  Univision show “Q’Viva.”

Even though Marc and Jennifer appeared  affectionate during the photo shoots,  there was no sincerity  detected body language wise as you can see. In the photo above  Anthony  leads J Lo as he holds her hand. But the giveaway is that they are both looking in different directions.That is not a good sign for a loving couple.

The next giveaway is that neither of them are smiling and J Lo looks directly at Anthony with tension around her eyes in the form of a glare. This is not how a loving couple looks at one another.  Anthony on the other hand, shows a lot of tension in the lower jaw region  ads you can see in the photo, which is another sign that things are not good between them.

To try to show the press that there was intimacy between them, Anthony even held onto J.Lo’s waist as  men  commonly tend to do when their partner’s are pregnant with their child. The pose here is completely contrived and painful to look at. First of all look at the pressure of Anthony’s finger muscles on J’Lo’s abdomen. They are pushing in and the fingers arte not relaxed and open. Instead they are close together and tight. He is pressing too hard to indicate affection.

Next, look at their faces. They are looking in opposite directions which is another bad sign and Marc looks tense and pained. His eyes look sad as they are narrowed where he is also leaking out anger. No doubt deep down he must be feeling angry that he has to perform this charade in order to promote their project together. Look at the muscle tension on the side of his lower jaw. That spells- anger.

J Lo is not doing any better int he anger and sadness department. Even though she appears to be smiling, it is a fake smile. Cover up her lips  int he photo with your hand and you will see sad eyes which are not smiling. This indicates that there is ambivalence on her part. There is tension in her cheeks and  a great deal of muscle tension in her neck region as you can see. This indicates that she is not comfortable being around her ex and is feeling tense and unhappy about the situation, even though she is trying to mask it.   Finally her head is bowed down indicating that she is feeling insecure and less than herself when she is  in Anthony’s presence.

Reporters who attended the press conferences stated that  there was an awkwardness between them. The press conference was so controlled by  press handlers so stop reporters from delving into  J Lo and Mark Anthony’s realtionship issues and detract from promoting their project, that the reporters were barely given time to ask questions.

The tension in J Lo’s face is remarkable. She is clenching down on her back teeth in anger as she leans her upper body away from her ex. He is extremely tense facially and his shoulder is up indicating that he is literally giving her the “cold shoulder.”

They were asked by a member of the press hat it was like working together .  JLo   merely mirrored back the question in a monotone voice as she responded “We have a great time working together.” When someone parrots back phrases rest assured they are not being forthright. When people are going through a split, you can bet they are not having a great time working together. Also the choice of her word “great” is used by her  to overcompensate for the opposite feelings that she really has towards Anthony and towards their current situation.


At one point,  Marc looked at all the rings on Jennifer’s left hand and looked very sad and surprised  as you can see that his jaw is more slack as he did not see the wedding ring  her gave her on her finger. J Lo looks angry and tense as you can see the tension in her neck muscles along with a sweaty shiny forehead to further indicate discomfort anxiety, and tension.

This photo is  further indication that there is indeed hard feelings between them.

In every photo they both look miserable in one another’s presence.

Casey Anthony’s Second Video Focus IS On Her Appearance Not Caylee

Saturday, January 7th, 2012

In the second video that has just been released on Casey Anthony, we no longer see a blond Casey with a  hair style and color resembling her mother Cindy. Now we see her in a a short  brunette cropped hair do.  The glasses she is now sporting are very oversized as opposed to the last video and look rather comical on her face. Also if Casey was in such need of glasses, why wasn’t she wearing them in the courtroom where she really needed to see things closely and read materials.The glasses obviously seem to be put on for effect.

Casey  still does not mention Caylee , just as she did not mention her in her previous video. In her first video she was concerned where to look . But now she seems to have the hang of it as she is looking directly at herself on video ,where she can examine her newly pieced nose ring and ear piercing at the top of her ear.

While she says he is very excited about her piercings by stating “I just pierced my nose last night, very excited and top of my ear” you would never know she was excited in any way until she spoke those words. Her voice says the opposite. It is in a  dull emotionless uninflected monotone.

Casey also begins the new video with a higher pitched baby girl like voice which is very interesting on so many levels. In essence,  the little girl voice may reflect how she feels about herself subconsciously, especially now that Caylee is no longer a part of her life. Now she can be the little girl- the youngest in the family like she has always been. Now she can resume her role as the baby girl- not Caylee.

The fact that there is no mention of Caylee in a video she knows will eventually be released publicly,  speaks volumes.It is as though she has blocked everything out and is now focusing on herself and her looks and her new image.

The fact that she has changed up her hair style and he glasses and donned a nose and ear piercing in such a short period of time in my view means she is struggling with her image. She is trying to find out who she is now and trying on different images. She clearly got rid of the super long hair courtroom do and now is trying different looks.

It was reported on TMZ that she now dons red hair but this is not evident in this video. If she is trying on various looks in an attempt to disguise herself when she finally is free to go out and about publicly, it is not too smart on her part to be releasing these videos of herself.

Casey has changed a lot physically. For one she has filled out more and become “thicker”.  Perhaps the food at the halfway house or mental health facility where she is staying has a lot better and more appealing food choices than jail, so perhaps her appetite has improved.

This shows in her nose ,which has also become thicker  and more bulbous, thereby making her appearance resemble Cindy more and more.

The one thing which is interesting about this second video is that she cannot stop looking at herself. In essence, she does not take her eyes off of he screen for a moment as he focus is completely on her.

I have no idea if Casey is releasing these videos and photos herself or these are being released by others on her behalf.  But the bottom line is that whomever is releasing them has received a lot of hits which translates into a lot of dollars and cents for them and most likely for  Casey as well.

The fact that these tapes have become such a topic of interest in the media reflects that Casey has become a bonafide celebrity known for her infamy of allegedly killing her child.

In watching these video posts of Casey, the real live reality show of Casey Anthony continues as it did during her courtroom proceedings. The whole thing is so absurd. Her craving public attention will eventually catch up to her in my view.

After what happened to Caylee and all the public  hatred towards her she needed to lay low and try to live under the radar in my view. She needed to reinvent herself not with a nose ring or ear piercing or different hair color but with a solid education and some serious mental health therapy on an ongoing basis. I cannot imagine any therapist condoning these videos to be released.

But as we see Casey cannot help herself and would most likely not heed any advice from anyone let alone a therapist. She craves the attention too much as we are seeing . She craves the limelight and that will in my view eventually  be her downfall. These videos show how much she is focused on  herself and how much  she craves attention. We all heard it and saw it in the  jailhouse tapes but now that she is out of jail, we see it again.

When people crave that much attention, they will do anything to get that attention. They will often  subconsciously make bad decisions in order to get themselves the attention they need. Casey has had a history of making bad decisions so why should anything change now. It takes a lot of therapy and self insight – not self absorption to make significant changes in one’s psyche and in one’s behaviors. So it is highly possible that she will eventually trip herself up and end up like OJ Simpson.

There are  a lot of similarities between Casey and OJ in terms of how much they were focused on themselves and on the attention from others.OJ  was constantly getting in to trouble and having all kinds of high drama situations throughout the years until he eventually ended up where he belonged – inprison for the rest of his life. Since Casey too craves this attention we may see a similar pattern down he road.

Her parents released a statement after the first video that they worry for her safety and that the release of this video was not a good idea. In my view, they need to worry about their own safety  as well when Casey is finally free . They need to hope she stays far away from them as possible because no doubt some of that high drama will result due to the dysfunctional dynamics of this family structure. It is a fact that there has been severe conflict between Casey and Cindy for years. Now that Casey has had some independence and has been away for Cindy for so long it could get very ugly  between them if  Cindy tried to take control or bully Casey.

There are so many mixed emotions with regard to this family. The smallest disagreement could inflame things and create a disaster.  Casey may feel betrayed by Lee’s testimony in the courtroom. Her father may never forgive her for allowing him to be thrown under the bus and having the sexual molestation card revealed in court. There is a lot of resentment and anger towards Casey by her family  and unless they all underwent family therapy it is my view that things could escalate in a very bad way.

I still believe that these tapes are being released because producer  Scott Sternberg’s despicable efforts at selling an interview with Casey   for 3/4 of a million dollars  failed. So now Plan B is in place with the release of these tapes. The timing is uncanny, especially if Casey will be released from her facility next month.

In watching these tapes it was so upsetting to see how Casey was so focused on her new piercings and to  hearing the word “excited” come out of her mouth. Poor Caylee may she rest in peace,  will never  have the chance to experience excitement about anything.

Kim Kardashian’s Botoxed Facial Language Alienating People?

Tuesday, December 27th, 2011

Look at Kim  Kardashiasn’s facial expression.  She is sitting on Santa’s lap and is supposed to be happy. But her facial expression says something entirely different. While her lips are parted and teeth are  teeth showing to indicate a  smile, there is something odd about the lip area as there is  no muscle movement seen. When you smile, there is muscle  movement in the lower jaw and at the side of the lips .

In this photo taken earlier in Kim’s life, you can see what I am talking about. There is a slight lower jaw tension and lines at the sides. The naso-labial folds course downwards as they should be. She looks natural and engaging.

But now there is none of that.In addition absolutely no other facial movement in her Santa photo. Her upper face is essentially frozen in a manaquin like position.

In a normal genuine smile there would be a crinkling of the forehead  and definite crinkling around the eyes  or some slight wrinkling under the eyes. But in the Santa photo you see none of that which makes her look wax-like. While she is pretty, there is an unnatural  non-human quality to the look.

Asa body language expert it is disturbing , because you cannot read anything from Kim’s face other than BOTOX. I am not sure Kim has used botox as I haven’t seen anyone shoot it into her face. But in my view, it sure looks like she has been heavy on the syringe lately.

Personally I find the natural look (wrinkles and crinkles) more beautiful  in people. There is nothing wrong with plastic surgery or  enhancing your appearance in my view. But there is a lot wrong when it interferes with your nonverbal facial  communication.

The repercussions are that people tend to turn off to you and they don’t relate to you. Facial expression and body movement are essential for good communication, especially of you want to relate to others. That is why I am not a fan of Botox.

Back in the day, Botox was used on patients who had vocal cord problems and muscle spams in the vocal cords where they could not speak without loosing their voices mid sentences. In that case Botox was a good thing.

It has also been used with cerebral palsy patients to release the muscle constrictions. In fact, I know of a prson who has cerebral pasley who uses Botox for this purpose and it is now difficult to tell if she has Cerebral Palsey as the Botox helped her previously uncontrolled head movement.

But when too much Botox is used to eliminate facial activity it is a bad thing in my view. While Kim’s wedding was a joke as you could tell it was not genuine from  her body language,  fans have rebelled. They have even called  to boycott Kim and the Kardashians all together. But perhaps  they may be rebelling  against Kim in particular for an additional reason as well. Perhaps they can no longer relate to Kim. Perhaps they  find her lack of facial animation unrelatable and a turn off.

Her monotone, nasal, non animated voice matches her now matches  non animated face and that is a very bad thing in terms of image, like ability and relate-ability.

Did Kim Kardashian’s Body Language Smell Contribute To Her and Kris Humphries Breakup?

Thursday, December 8th, 2011

Body language wise when two people just get married and are in the Honeymoon phase with one another they can barely keep their hands off of one another. When you see photos or videos of them, there is no physical space between them as they are joined together like Siamese twins.

So when I watched Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries take their vows on television some 70 something days ago and saw too much space between them, and an awkwardness, I knew something was way off. When I was asked to analyze their body language by the media I knew something was seriously wrong and they would NEVER last long as a couple.I was clearly right in my assessment as they soon announced that they would be divorcing.

But when Kris Humphries, on the second installment of Kris and Kourtney take New York, said to Kim as they were horsing around on the bed “Your armpits smell like a combination of fish and hot garbage.” it revealed a lot.

In so many photos Kim literally seemed repulsed by Kris as I even mentioned this on Hollywoodlife.com But Kris’s statement about Kim’s smell reflects that he too may have been repulsed by her and her smell and her pheromones.

PHEROMONES SPEAK VOLUMES

Research has shown how powerful pheromones can be in terms of physical attraction. If you have ever been madly in love with someone you can’t get enough of them. When they are not around you miss everything about them- even their smell. You may even resort to sleeping with their tee shirt just to get a blast of their pheromones they left behind. Pheromones are what is referred to in common terms as “chemistry”. You have it or you don’t. And Kim and Kris obviously don’t have it.

And please don’t write t tell me Kris was only kidding. He could have kidded by saying something else. But to actually describe the smell of Kim’s pits so graphically also giving choices – “fish” or “hot garbage” it is clear that it was a smell thing. That does not mean that Kim stinks or has a body odor.

Obviously Reggie didn’t think so, or maybe he did as they are obviously not together. But it does mean that Kim’s pheromones were not compatible with Kris Humphry’s pheromones. There relationship or lack therof, shows us that there is a lot more that goes into a relationship than money, power, looks, or status. It involves smell. Animals know it better than anyone. They either like ort dislike another animal based on their smell. We are just the same, only we try to disguise it with all of the other things mentioned above.

Conrad Murray Devoid of Emotion But Sweats and Breathes Hard As Jury Is Read- Is He A Suicide Risk?

Tuesday, November 8th, 2011

Conrad Murray found guilty in death of Michael Jackson

Just before the verdict was read, the only thing which gave Conrad Murray’s emotions away  as he awaited his fate, was  his upper chest breathing. You could see the heaving of his chest and his heart no doubt beat double time.

However his facial expression belied the anxiety he was really experiencing. He wore the same  mask like facial expression that he wore throughout the trial which I am certain did not further endear him to jurors.

As the word Guilty was read there was a slight movement however the facial expression did not change. He showed no emotion whatsoever.There was no forehead crinkling, no tears, no lip pursing or eye movement. There was nothing. He was void of emotion. But there was profuse sweating in his temple  and upper forehead region.

He was also void of emotion as he was remanded into custody. He looked as though he was in a state of shock as he was cuffed and lead away. No doubt this was surreal for him.

When you see someone who shows absolutely no twinge of any emotion whatsoever, it is often a red flag for a suicide watch. The trial has obviously taken a physical toll on Murray as seen by the hollowed out appearance under his eyes and the puffiness  in his midface. He may very well have been medicated during the trial as his eyes looked at half mast often and he appeared to be nodding out.

Oftentimes people do this when the information and truth is too much to handle emotionally. Thus it could be safely said that Conrad Murray appears to be the type of person who keeps his emotions in check and does not wear them openly.

But when the medication wears off and the reality sets in, emotions may take a tool on him and he may react self destructively in the form of a suicide attempt.

As he finally realizes all that goes along with his being a convicted felon in killing Michael Jackson, life may be too hard to handle. The public vitriol, the  loss of his medical license, and financial troubles may force him into a state of hopelessness.

So being remanded into custody may be saving his life for the time being as he will no doubt be placed  on a major suicide watch. But if he is intent on killing himself, his being a physician and knowing what to do to end his life may make suicide watch a futile process.

He appears to love his little child so that may give him some hope and may deter thoughts of his ending his life. If he thinks rationally and maintains his wits he will see that his 4 years may be cut in half and because  of the  prison overcrowding factor he may even get home confinement, according to TMZ.

Personally I believe that justice was served greatly and that it is a wakeup call to all physicians who put money and greed above the welfare of their patient. I have seen the starstruck physician who caters to the patient and does all that the patient wants . Even if Michael wanted propofol  and  insisted on it, he needed to have the integrity and ethics to  say NO!

And if he said YES, he needed to stay by Michael’s  side  to make sure Michael was monitored. If  Murray had to go to the bathroom, he needed to have a cup or a pail in the room as not to leave Michael alone.  And if Michael had a weak system or had drug issues, he  especially needed to be by his side to monitor him.

For the Jackson family, it is bittersweet. It is sweet that Justice was served and bitter that Michael is no longer alive. I know exactly how they feel. When my own precious brother was killed at the hands of an incompetent physician  who intubated him wrongly so that he became a vegetable and died, it was sweet that we settled the medical malpractice case, but it is a bitter pill for me which I have to swallow for the rest fo my life that my Manny is no longer alive.

Just as Michael Jackson was an extraordinary person, so was my brother, he was funny and  provided me with lots of belly laughs (something I have done little of since he was killed). He was warm, upbeat, kindhearted,  really cared about people, highly intelligent, honest, and had a great deal of integrity. He was talented and creative and not just my brother, but my best friend. His death at the hands of an incompetent doctor is unbearable.

I am sure that is how the Jackson family feels about Michael. I  had a vicarious thrill seeing Conrad Murray be cuffed and lead away. I wish that this would have happened ot the doctor who killed my brother . It didn’t . The  cold hearted emotionless doctor who was only a doctor who seven months when he ended my brothers life is now back at the same hospital  in New Jersey practicing as a bona fide physician. It galls me that this is the case.  So it was a catharsis for me to see a physician get what was due to him. www.drlillianglass.com

Emotional Pain of Seeing Michael Jackson’s Dead Body Language During Opening Arguments

Friday, September 30th, 2011

Seeing Michael Jackson’s dead body language in this shocking photo which was  presented by the prosecution  on the first day of the  Conrad Murray is beyond devastating and painful for me. The photo says it all. In my view, it will also  have a lasting effect on jurors just as it has an indelible effect on me and anyone else viewing it.

It shows a helpless Michael Jackson  lying on a gurney covered with a sheet on the lower half of his body. It shows the results of the actions of a doctor who irresponsibly administered propofol when he should have known better than to give it to his patient.

So what if was reported  Michael demanded to have it.  So what of Michael allegedly had a drug problem and drug addiction issues. It was not Michael’s call. Michael was the patient and not the doctor. But unfortunately as we see here,  there are doctors who will do whatever a patient wants  simply because they are a star and can pay big money and they know they will get a lot of perks. Unfortunately this  goes on all the time in Los Angeles doctors who cater to the Hollywood community. In fact there is a vulgar name for these type of doctors who are often referred to as “STAR F***ERS. Unfortunately , this was clearly the case here.

Seeing Michael lying there so helplessly with his mouth agape brings forth a myriad of emotions. For me it brought forth a torrent of tears. It stimulated a personal memory of how sweet Michael was to a homeless woman just days before he died. Having my office on Bedford Drive in Beverly Hills, I was well aware of a sweet  woman who used to hang out in the street.  Many passers by, including myself often watched out for her, giving her food and money.

One day Michael spotted  her after he left Dr. Arnold Klein’s office  a block away on Roxbury Drive. He had his driver stop his black SUV and  summoned the woman to come inside his car where  she later shared that  Michael gave her words of  encouragement and inspiration and was so loving and generous. with personal gifts and money.

Seeing the above photo continued to make me cry as I thought of Paris and Prince having to see their beloved daddy this way for the last time. I thought of Blanket who is still as  traumatized now  as he was since the funeral.

The photo also brought forth anger in me . The anger is directed at Conrad Murray, a doctor Michael  trusted. That trust was betrayed as the doctor left the room to chat up his girlfriend while  Michael was in crises.

While Murray should have never administered the lethal drug outside of the operating room, let alone in Michael’s bedroom, the fact that he wasn’t there to monitor Michael with proper equipment and left Michael all alone is unconscionable.

Had he been there and he seen that Michael was in physical trouble, he could have quickly  revived him or he could have done  immediate  CPR measures to save his life. Michael died because of this doctor’s negligence in my view. Whether or not Michael had other issues or health related issues is irrelevant. In my view Murray’s negligence is what  put the final nail in Michael’s coffin.

Yes, everyone deserves a fair trial but what is fair about leaving a person alone to die by not monitoring them? It screams of incompetence, lack of humanity, selfishness, and sheer greed.

Watching all of the nuances and the verbal gymnastics by the defense is a waste of my  time and emotion. It hurts me deeply to watch this trial on a very very  personal level as well.

I know firsthand  what it feels like to lose a loved one at the hands of an incompetent negligent  doctor who  committed malpractice. My  own very beloved brother  Manny was killed at the hands of such an incompetent doctor who intubated him wrongly so that he became a vegetable and died. The doctor was only a doctor for seven months when he recklessly  and incompetently ended my vivacious brother’s life.

Thus,  I feel very deeply for the Jackson family (except for mercenary and obnoxious Joe). I feel for Michael’s kids the most and for his mother Katherine who not only  had to put up with Toxic Joe all her life, but now  continues to deal with the death of her  precious and loved son.

The doctor who actually  killed my brother due to his malpractice was found liable. Yet this miserable cold emotionless creature who showed no compassion  is still alive and well practicing in New Jersey at the same hospital where his incompetent hands ended my brother’s life. Whenever I think of  this fact, I am livid.

If I allow myself to think of the possibility that Conrad Murray may possibly  get away with Michael’s death and be allowed to resume practicing medicine as though nothing happened, I get sick to my stomach.

Just as my brother did not have to die, Michael did not have to die either. I hope that Conrad Murray is NEVER allowed to practice medicine anywhere ever again and that he spends time in prison for his actions.

If  Murray manned up and said he did wrong and was prepared to deal with the consequences I perhaps  would have a bit more respect for him ( not much  but a smidgen more than I do now). But instead he is blaming everyone else. Sure there are other doctors who enabled Michael. But it was Murray who left him alone to die. That in itself  is reprehensible!

Since the Beginning of Their Relationship Maria and Arnold’s Body Language Showed Differences

Sunday, May 22nd, 2011

 

If you look at the earliest photos of Arnold and Maria and follow  them to throughout the years to the present day, you will see a common theme. That theme is that they are completely not like minded. They never appear  to be looking in the same direction, which reflects the fact that they were never on the same page. Look at the photos below and you will see how they consistently look in different direction,

Maria is looking towards the camera while Arnold looks off to the side when they were first dating.

It continued when they got married as you can see in their wedding photos. And it continued throughout their marriage as you can see int he many photos of them below.

They never appear to be in synch with one another as they look in two distinctly different directions in practically all of their photos.

In many photos of the two of them together,  there is a great deal of physical distance between them, which is a very  bad sign for any relationship.

There are also countless photos where Maria trails behind Arnold. They are not on equal footing. He always seems to be stepping out ahead of her. It indicates that it is all about him and that she is a  mere appendage. She is there to make him look good.

In their later years together,  it appears that  could Arnold doesn’t even seem to acknowledge Maria. He essentially ignores her. It appears as though it could be anyone standing next to him. Body language wise, they  continue to look in different directions which mirrors what they have done throughout their lives together. 

\

Maria clearly adored  Arnold as can be seen in so many of the photos. She looked at him with love and affection, but he rarely  if ever, returned her affections publicly.

When she would reach out to him as you can see in this photo, he would  essentially ignore her.

She was often the aggressor  in their public displays of affection as she initialed kisses and other  displays of affection,He continued to  appear awkward and non responsive as he did not reciprocate  her affections.

He continued to ignore her throughout the years which rendered her looking very unhappy.

In fact, in their later years together ,  she looked absolutely miserable whenever she was around him.

No doubt, when  she learned of his constant alleged womanizing, she became increasingly  unhappy.  So when it was announced that Arnold had an affair and impregnated his mistress while there  was an initial shock,  it is no surprise. Rumors of affairs and harassmentswirled around him for years. 

But what did come as a surprise and spoke volumes about Arnold was that his and Maria’s housekeeper was the mistress and lived and worked  under the same roof as they did for two decades.To me that is the ultimate in Toxic Behavior.

Apparently the housekeeper  told Arnold that the baby was his when the baby was a toddler. Arnold did the right thing and  financially supported the boy and the mother. But who knows if he supported the boy emotionally.  Now the boy is ten years old and it is said that he looks exactly like Arnold as reported by TMZ. In the pixeled out photo above, you can see how the boy  resembles Arnold especially around the mouth and jaw area.

My main concern is   about the psyche of this young boy who has had to keep his father’s identity a secret until now.  Who knows if he even knew Arnold was his father until now? I do hope that Arnold has the sense to put the boy in therapy to help him cope with  the  public’s  now  knowing that he is Arnold’s illegitimate son.

There is no doubt that some agressive  journalist will out this innocent young boy and not respect his privacy. After all there is a lot of money in paparazzi photos of a young newly discovered mini-Arnold. Perhap the mother and the boy will expose themselves publicly on their own. Whatever the case, the boy will need a strong support system for what lies ahead of him.

The pain Maria must be experiencing must be excruciating. She has been humiliated,  betrayed and used in a very public way. Arnold sought her out and married her as a vehicle to help him achieve the American Dream. What better way of achieving the dream than by marrying into the Kennedy family. Her Kennedy family immediately  legitimized him. It transformed him from a caricature  of a muscle head  bodybuilder   to member of America’s  most  a respect and revered clan. It  gave him even more contacts and pushed him up the social ladder until he became Governor  of  California. After achieving his goal, it appeared that  he had no more use for Maria. He had nothing to lose by coming clean ten years later when he was finally out of office.

But now he now, he claims  that he   wants her back. It may be  because of the negative repercussions on his ego and on his reputation and not because of anything else. Arnold was the untouchable Golden boy ever since he landed int he US. He was an action hero on film and an hero to some  in real life. Now he has quickly gone from hero to   zero. 

But if he does happen to  wins Maria back and does a mea culpa, things will look up for him once again as he does the Media Forgive Me tour.

While many feel that Maria should never allow him back into her life, love is stronger than anyone’s opinion, There is no doubt that  she clearly loves him. That is one of the main reasons she has not rushed to file for divorce.  Her strong Catholic faith may also sway her in the direction of keeping him. In the end,  is her decision alone as to what  she needs to do for herself. Will she follow in the footsteps of her grandmother and the other Kennedy women who were constantly cheated upon, yet  grinned and bared  it? Or will she be the first of the Kennedy women to actually leave and show  some self respect ? .

Even though she has asked for people’s advice and feedback during her transition period, ultimately, she has to listen to what is in her heart.

The woman has  recently gone through the loss of her uncle Ted who had brain cancer , her mother who had cancer, her father with Alzheimer’s, th ending her reign as First Lady of California and all that the position  entailed, her kids maturing  and headed for lives of their owny and eight  years of being away from a high profile media career .

The last thing she needed to  add to her  already existing pain was to discover that her husband of over two decades fathered an illegitimate child with a housekeeper, who worked for her. The woman added to her pain fo betrayal by  carrying  on an affair with Arnold right under her nose and under her roof.  If the housekeeper worked for Arnold and Maria for two decades, no doubt that Maria  must have felt she was a loyal employee. So to be  betrayed by a  husband and a trusted employee is enough to send anyone over the edge. www.drlillianglass.com

Stoic Body Language and Bundling Up Say Casey Anthony Is Nervous on Day 7

Sunday, May 22nd, 2011

In one week Casey Anthony   has gone from  crying, giggling. laughing, and  flirting to being very stoic in her demeanor. Perhaps it is the bombardment of Jeff  Ashton,  Judge Perry, and  Ann Finnell’s taking about her possible death sentence that has sobered her up. Perhaps it is hearing so many of the jurors saying that they thought she was “guilty” that made her stop her aberrant courtroom  behavior.

There is no doubt that this jury selection process has had a tremendous effect on Casey,  not only emotionally, but physically as well.

We constantly see her literally gasping for air as she takes in a huge gulp of air and visibly  heaves her chest as she exhales. Hearing all of the talk of death makes her want to subconsciously hang on to the breath of  life and that is why she is breathing so heavily.

She is somber and there are bags of worry under her eyes. The reason Casey was so happy go lucky in the past was because Jose Baez kept pumping her up and Cheney Mason assured her and everyone else that he would walk out of the courtroom with her arm in arm. She felt bolstered up by the two of them as she sat between them playing touchy feely with Mason and flirting with Baez.

Now they sit away from her and leave her in the middle fo two female attorneys who don’t seem to pay much attention to her as we have seen  over these past few days. The only time Ms. Simms paid her any mind was when she tried to calm Casey down during the  anxiety attack where Casey  had to be escorted away by two marshalls.

Her wiping the spittle from the corners of her mouth also indicates that she is nervous . There is no doubt that hearing all of this death talk as it pertains to her, has given her a case of “cotton mouth.” So  the saliva has dried on the corners of her mouth which she attempts to wipe away.

Casey has  also shown that she is nervous, as her body temperature appears to be dropping. She is getting cold. Casey’s suddenly  getting  cold  may be indicative of  her autonomic system taking over. We have seen people who are nervous,  start to shake uncontrollably. Their body suddenly gets cold.The shaking is nature’s way of helping them get warm and regulate their body temperature.

 Casey wraps herself up  in her white Menendez- type soft sweater to ward off the chill she is feeling. We have never seen Casey this covered up before. Getting all cuddled up in her sweater is  a self soothing device for her, much like it is for a baby who needs their blanky to calm them down.

As she bundles up, we also see her raised shoulders which are indicative of tension and a reflection of her feeling cold. When people get cold, they often raise their shoulders in an automatic  attempt to  physically protect themselves from the cold.

Here we see her wrapping her hands up with the bottom of her sleeve in a further attempt to keep warm.

Now it is more extreme as she completely covers her hands with her sleeve while still managing to rest her fist on her chin. The fist- like gesture also indicates anger on her part. No doubt she is angry at having to listen to people say negative things about her and how they thought she was guilty. Her glaring stare is also indicative of her anger towards what she hears.

 

Casey also appeared to have a shiny nose and what looked like perspiration above her upper lip. That may also reflect her nervousness. Very often she had a flushed appearance which was also an indication of her nervousness as there was increased blood flow  as she listened to what the jurors has to say about her.

While she may appear stoic on the outside, there is a lot of turmoil going on with her on her inside, as we can see from the above photos.

 I have always believed Casey should be wearing a black suit  in the courtroom for a number of reasons. For one, it shows respect and  an impression of  maturity  that the defense team wants to get across in sparing her life. 

The defense team  has essentially said that  her young age was a mitigating factor.  If she keeps wearing  those baby pastel  colors and cuddly sweaters it will be hard for the jury to not keeping thinking of Casey as that young girl who killed her baby and not someone who has since  matured. www.drlillianglass.com

Chris Brown’s Body Language on DWTS Screams Anger As He Punches With Spiked Glove

Thursday, April 7th, 2011

As the Body Language Expert for Dancing With the Stars   on Season 8 and doing analyses for Entertainment Tonight and various magazines, all I can say is that I am appalled that Chris  Brown was allowed back into the ABC Family after his window punching incident last week.

I am not alone in  my disgust that he was allowed on DWTS  as host Tom Bergeron and top female dancer Cheryl Burk were equally disgusted. Although Tom tried to be the pro that he is, his stiff body language and half smile gave away his displeasure. He even mentioned publically that he wasn’t thrilled about Chris being there and it showed in his  ambivalent half smile and  in Tom’s tight  body language on the show.

Cheryl who publicly spoke of her own abuse was disgusted that an abuser would appear on the same show are herself. She said that even though she could do nothing about it she wasn’t happy  but did what she could do to in speaking out and expressing her displeasure.

CHRIS BROWN- THE ANGRY PERFORMER

His anger not only appeared off the stage it appeared on the stage as well with his punching dance moves that looked like he would be better in a boxing ring than on a dance floor. In the photo above you can see the anger in his clench fists and extended knuckles.

Before Chris appeared in his devil red and black suit with chains on the  there was what I thought a very contrived and cheap shot. A little boy in a white suit yelled out “ Hey it’s Chris Brown” as the little boy  began to tumble on to the stage and break danced.

That disgusted me that a little kid was being used to promote  Chris Brown. I think associating Chris Brown with the little excited kid was a  disgusting ploy to enroll other kids. The fact that a kid essentially introduced Chris Brown’s performance and then began to perform himself was merely used as a distraction to help mollify Chris’ negative perception. After all who can;t feel warm and fuzzy towards a little break dancing kid in a suit?

As Chris took to his singing and dancing he began what I thought was indicative  of who he is as a person– an angry hostile man.   His punching moves in his first dance were a complete a turn off  and highly inappropriate .  If he was there to rectify his image he certainly didn’t do it with his dancing moves.

While his acrobatics were impressive I still couldn’t shake the photos etched in my brain of Rihanna’s face  that was pummeled by him.

As I recalled what he did to the window at ABC I got even more disgusted by him. To  think of the  force he used in breaking this sealed and reinforced  window was also repulsive to me. Anyone else would have been arrested  and put in jail but celebrity justice is no doubt what kept him free. I kept thinking of that and it was maddening.  He was even invited back to GMA to explain himself which further sickened me as anyone else would NEVER have been invited back to GMA or to any show ever again for that  hateful and dangerous antic.

Thus, it was impossible for me to appreciate any of  his talents. When I heard the audience clapping loudly and standing to their feet , there was no doubt in my mind that this was choreographed as well. It further disturbed me as to why this nasty violent creature was being celebrated in any shape or form.Why he was allowed on the DWTS stage in the first place was beyond my comprehension.

But clearly, someone high above made sure that Chris would be successful in spite of himself. It no doubt appears to be  all about  dollars and cents.

But to me, this violent out of control creature simply looked   like a  mean devil dressed in red and chains. I would never purchase anything  with he was associated. In fact I would encourage others to boycott him as well. We simply cannot showcase and honor those who  are violent. There is enough world violence out there and we certainly don’ tneed it in our artists who’s aim is to entertain and bring us joy.

Then he was introduced for his second song set as he wore a white suit with lights on it that changed colors designed to  distract people . I did like the lighted suit that changed colors as I did like the  backup dancer’s neon looking outfits and the choreography. But that still didn’t change the reality. To me he is still a  Toxic Man who happened to be wearing a lighted suit that changed colors.

Then Chris was done performing and  I saw Chris Browns face drenched in sweat as he held  his  silver metal spiked fingerless  glove up to his face as he as in a praying hand position with his hands clasped together. I found this incongruity of  prayer and violence sickening  and hypocritical. Brown was thrilled the  DWTS audience received him well and pressed his praying hands together as an act of humility and forgiveness. But to me it said cockiness with is head even cocked to the side. He ”got over” on everyone.  His mindset was that even though he was violent and out of control, he was  still loved and revered !

As a violent creature who beat up Rihanna a beat up a window, in my view Chris Brown should not be wearing  that glove as it could prove to be a lethal weapon if used  inappropriately on someone.

His handlers  who were so concerned about his image forgot a crucial element. They forgot to not allow him to dress in a spiked  metal violent  glove. So their image makeover with his hair back to black and his DWTS appearance backfired as the boxing like punching dance moves , hostile hands and  hateful and hostile weapon- like glove said it all!  www.drlillianglass.com

George Lopez Calls Kirstie Alley A Pig When He’s Fat Too

Thursday, April 7th, 2011

There is an old saying that goes “when you point the finger at someone there are there are often three fingers pointing back at you. This definitely  seems to be the case with George Lopez after he made fun of Kirstie Alley after her Dancing With the Stars appearance by calling her a fat pig.

His name calling seems to be more about him than it does about Kirstie. When George looks in the mirror there is no doubt he has not come to grips with his the physical changes that have resulted perhaps due to taking  the weight gaining anti rejection medication for his kidney transplant or the resulting excess fluid retention in his body.

His lashing out at Kirstie’s weight may very well be due to the fact that he cannot cope with his own weight gain and  subsequent body changes ,resulting self loathe.


If we look back at the re runs of his television sitcom from 2004-2007 we see a much more slender and  healthier looking George.  Since this photo was taken,  his face has become wider and bloated. His  present day complexion  looks more pallid and looks even more pitted than before as his his eyes  now often have more of  a budging appearance to them.

LEAVING HIS WIFE WHO SAVED HIS LIFE BECAUSE  HE SAYS SHE WAS ‘OVERWEIGHT”

A few months ago I was in the makeup room at CNN and met a beautiful woman who was also having her makeup done in the seat next to me.  We were discussing my new book called Toxic Men. She immediately told me that she needed to read that book as she as getting a divorce from her husband.

She then proceed to tell me her name, Ann , and hand me her business card which said Ann Lopez, producer. On the card it also said that she was the producer of George Lopez Productions. It was then that I realized that the Toxic Man she was referring to was comedian George Lopez

She proceeded to tell me how George had an unknown birth defect with kidneys the size of raisins. In 2005  , doctors said he was going to die unless he had a kidney transplant.  She volunteered to give him one of her kidneys and he gladly accepted.

Then after saving  his life, she found out he was cheating on her  with prostitutes by reading the tabloids. She was shocked and demanded a divorce. But to make himself look good, and to make Ann look like the villain in the marriage, Lopez has been telling the press he divorced his wife (who he had been married to since 1990 for  21 years  and with whom he had a daughter) because she was overweight.

Ann was a heavy set woman and was always that way since he married her in 1990. She was that way before and after they had their daughter in 1996. Obviously her size never bothered him or he overlooked it because he knew she was a wonderful woman who was devoted to him. In fact in his book Why You Crying? he said

“I want to tell you about a woman I have been married to for ten years, my wife, Ann, who speaking truthfully, saved me from myself. Who saved me from destroying myself because of my background. Who saved me from wasting my life, drinking my life away, never fulfilling my dreams because of what I had come from, and truly believing and loving — truly the first person to ever truthfully, unconditionally love me.”

But the problem was that George didn’t love himself. He couldn’t accept that unconditional love and the Ultimate gift of life from Ann. So what did he do? He sabotaged himself by having affairs with hookers.

INSTEAD OF BASHING HIS OWN WEIGHT GAIN HE BASHES IT OUT ON OTHERS LIKE KIRSTIE

Three weeks after his kidney surgery in 2005 he felt well enough to play golf. According to medical reports he was given anti-kidney rejection drugs. Whether it was the anti-rejection  drugs, or the fluid retention from  his non transplanted kidney not working, George put on a considerable amount of weight as you can ein the photo.

Instead of addressing his own  weight issues, he lashed out on his wife Ann, on Bristol Palin whom he said  got heavier after she appeared on DWTS, and   now he’s beaten up on Kirstie Alley.

He would have stuck by  the Kirstie weight bashing “ joke”   if the public had not rebelled in a big way.

People would not accept what he said about her being a pig and neither could Kirstie. In fact she lashed back and called him a “drunk pig” who had  a little too much vodka.

People are very sensitive to Kirstie’s plight.  They have seen her struggle  with weight for years

from being a failed spokesperson for Jenny Craig


to her doing  her own sitcom “Fat Actress” where she showed her struggles with her weight.

The unflattering  tabloid ambush shots of her being overweight and eating fattening foods, which  also kept her weight battle very public.

She addressed  her weight on every talk show and even came on Oprah to show her progress on Jenny Craig as she wore a bikini. Her body language on the show clearly showed how ashamed and uncomfortable and self-conscious she was as she hid her lower body in a gossamer pareo .

She constantly  made jokes about her weight. But those jokes were simply to hide her pain and her self-consciousness.

Before she began  DWTS, she took off 60 lbs  of her own which she said was due to her own weight loss program.

But the real weight loss will come now under Maksim’s guidance. There there is no doubt that Kirstie will be svelte once again.
After witnessing Kirstie’s weight struggle’s throughout the years, the public is sympathetic towards her and wants her to both  win and lose – win the mirror ball trophy on DWTS and lose the weight.

As for George, my advice to him is to   focus on his own weight loss since the issue of being fat concerns him so much.

Perhaps a stint on DWTS might do him some good as well. www.drlillianglass.com
