Christine definitely looked her best during the Chicken Shack days and this was about the only time she demonstrated any sense of style. Since then, she has just become progressively more ugly, not that she was any great beauty to begin with...
PS Does anyone realise that the reason Christine seemed unrecognisable during The Dance was that she had been heavily facelifted (as she had been for the Behind The Mask album) and was wearing a wig (just as she did for the Tango In The Night live video)?

God, it just kills me when people say that. An old friend of mine once said she looks like a man and I literally started to cry (I almost feel like crying now). Christine and her music really really mean a lot to me on an extremely personal level, and I really can't stand it when people I care about get blatantly insulted like that. Maybe you don't like her for whatever reason, but that's no excuse to be a jerk. You could always just avoid this section of the forum, you know. You're just mean.

Now that we saw those interview clips taken around the time of The Dance, I would say that Christine was wearing extra hair when the dvd was filmed and during the tour. That doesn't make me like the new look she presented any less. She probably did have a face lift around that time too, but it looked great and her body was fit and trim. Seeing her bouncing around behind those keyboards for the first time in years buoyed my heart and spirit.
And she STILL looked terrific when she was going around doing interviews for Meantime seven years later, wearing nothing but worn jeans, probably the same size -- or smaller -- than what she used to wear in the 1960s, promoting music that showcased a voice that had only grown fuller and more impressive with time. With a sense of humor and style that you're still thinking and smiling about, years after you've experienced it. Michele

Stevie looks kind of ridiculous in that picture up there, but definitely still gorgeous.
As for the Chris/hair thing...I guess I'm going to have to watch some videos from around that time again. Ugh, this is just painful. Let me try to explain this - I look at Christine and I see absolute perfection. I don't mean that in an over the top delusional way or anything - I know she's human and everything. The more I think about those little things (the fact she's had plastic surgery, wigs, etc.) is the more I think "god, maybe I think she's beautiful and perfect, but a lot of this beauty is artificial now..." Not all of it, but little parts. Wigs. Face lifts. Even if she has had surgery and stuff, she still looks gorgeous, so that's good. Oh, but then I tell myself "Well listen to yourself silly goose. You think she's ALWAYS looked beautiful, even before any surgeries or whatever, so these stupid little fears of yours make no sense." Eh. Well. Then the overly analytical part of me kicks in and starts going "Chris had a face lift. She must have thought she wasn't as pretty anymore or something, I guess, so she figured she needed to fix that. Poor Chris. She's always been beautiful. Blah blah I don't want her to think she needed it because she didn't blah blah I don't want her to have low self esteem because I don't want her to be sad blah blah whatever." The more I type is the more I realize that I must sound like a total lunatic. Oh darn. I have a feeling people are going to be like "Who is this new person here at the forum? She's absolutely loony toons..." Sorry.

Please don't misunderstand my comments - I didn't intend to cause offence, it's just that I don't particularly care for Christine's appearance. I think she's a supremely talented musician, singer and (at times) songwriter, but I could never consider her attractive or stylish. She presents herself in a suburban, cheap kind of way and almost always looks a little coarse and common. I'm sure she's a lovely, decent sort of woman, if not a little boring, but that's okay. Just my opinion mind...

Well really, you don't need to come to a thread that discusses particular moments of her looking good just so you can say that she's been getting uglier and uglier since the 60's, and that she wasn't any great beauty to begin with (although popular opinion says SHE IS). You could have easily said that you thought she looked best in her Chicken Shack days and left it at that.
She wasn't wearing a wig during The Dance, either. I don't think. If she was, I'm pretty sure my heart is going to break... See, now you're freaking me out. Shame on you. Anyhow, saying she was never pretty and that she's just getting uglier is unnecessary and rude. Just my opinion.
