course it takes hours who said it didn't? not me. i also didn't say its a talent to have a photogenic face and do i have to quote where you said those exact words again.

A great body and photogenic face is a talent just like a great voice

how about that friend of mine? she got a perfect models face her eyes chin and cheek bones and all that, cause she born with genes from her parents. yeah real talent being born

you just screwed up your words and cause i pick up how its not logical i'm a troll and your all cool with everyone cause you've been around long. real lame

why are you so negative toward him?

this has nothing to do with what i was saying. how many times do i have to quote him saying that having a great body and a photogenic face is a talent.

i said that statement is stupid and others did too. you dont have to back up such a stupid comment cause you've known him for a while. come on! a photogenic face is a talent??????

i shouldnt bother arguing with people who think the comment is sane because they obviously have a really weird sense of logic but i find it hard to believe someone would still think this. i think he doesnt think this but just cant admit he said a ridiculous thing

my battles? its not ok to say that something illogical when it clearly is? then they keep telling me to go to a gym as a rebutal for a really illogical statement to point out how they're not making any sense is picking the wrong battle?

look, Im the first one to admit Jason cant let go of a useless argument (HA HA!) but I didnt get what you got out of what he said. Perhaps I am missing some essential part of this argument?

In any event, while no one (IMO) can honestly say that possessing a pretty face amounts to TALENT, at the same time no one can deny that it isnt in fact an ASSET. Some assets are overlooked. to recognize an asset IS a talent, and perhaps that is what Jason meant??

someone did honestly say that posessing a pretty face amounts to talent. and your right its definately an asset but a talent is "a special natural ability or aptitude" and an asset is a useful thing. lindseys asset is his gorgeous face and his talent is his ability to play guitar like no one else. even if thats what strand meant he could swallow his pride and admit that he screwed up what he said but he just continued by telling us how good looking he is that he's done so much modeling and that he's so wealthy and that he works out all the time. wtf has that go t to do with it. either he retracts and evaluates what he said and it all makes sense or hes an arrogant fool

On edit to clarify - beauty is subjective. Some people can go to the gym everyday of their lives and get a great body - but if they do not have a "a special natural ability or aptitude" - face, look, style, etc. - they will never be anything more than that - a great body. Similarly, almost anyone can learn to sing. But, it takes "a special natural ability or aptitude" to put over a song. So, to use your def. above, they have "a special natural ability or aptitude" - or, talent. I think people are loathe to consider beauty a talent and I will never understand why. But, to each their own. Interestingly, many people have faces that are great live, but cannot make love to a camera. Thus, they were not born with that talent or "a special natural ability or aptitude" -- to me it's all the same thing.

and if you get fat, you lose that face just as when you do not exercise your voice, you lose it -- or you can lose both by other reasons. Trust me, it happened to me. Shall I speak in monosyllabic words for you In the end, if you want to consider beauty and asset instead of a talent - go right ahead.

As for Paris Hilton, she has a talent for making the public notice her and she usually plays that card very carefully. Is she an great actress - no, she is not. But, she has something in the talent department that makes people, perhaps not any of us, keep coming back. If substituting "aptitude, endowment, faculty, flair, genius, gift, or knack" makes you feel better - go right ahead - but those are all synonyms for "talent"

Why is that any different than being born with a beautiful voice? You have to work to keep both

Perhaps that is because you are a troll - or at least you are acting like one. Of course, what do I know, I am just an arrogant fool, who is also conceited Thank goodness I have a pretty face

Oh for the love of god, stop saying that. The word has lost all meaning. Everybody's a troll, and you are a beautiful, talented rich guy who is the troll authority. You will be my hubby one day.
