Hi All,,,was watching a childrens program with my little son when i realized that the episode was about vision and how you shouldn't pick on others because they wear glasses...anyway, a part of the episode had a group of musos clip as part of the program...It had two gwg with very large frames and real rx's but i missed the name of the group to youtube it and post it here...any good web detectives here? The childrens program was called Yo Gabba Gabba.

Hey I came across something in You Tube by "princesseids" very cute young lady great voice and plays guitar pretty well also. She has about 10 vidoes up. Looks like she is a mild plussy.
Sorry I have no idea how to link videos on here.

Most of the other youtube clips show her in glasses, but this is the best.
Soundmanpt 25 Aug 2010, 23:48

If your wanting your lenses to have a thick look they are great for that. I think that may be the one thing that may keep the bigger frames from becoming too popular with the young ladies. That style is fine for people with rather light rxs, but if your rx is very high and you don't want thick lenses it will force you to pay extra to get high index lenses. I've ordered the same style frame as Miss Duff is wearing for several young ladies, but they have all had very weak rxs. I doubt that they would be happy with that frame if their rxs were around -5.00. Don't get me wrong, at first I didn't like that look, but after these ladies got them I actually think they look very nice.
Jennifer 25 Aug 2010, 13:32
I think you're right, Val. I've been noticing more and more teen girls wearing the Joe Jonas glasses. Those frames are very bold. I have yet to see a girl wearing those frames with a significant prescription. So far, it's only been low minus. Who knows, I may go for those frames, too...
Val 25 Aug 2010, 13:24
FaNaTiKX, I like also very much the pictures with Demi Lovato. After Joe Jonas started to wear glasses almost everywhere he went, I think that Demi is another powerfull role model, that can persuade teenagers to wear glasses more instead of contacts, because it's "cool".
Maybe this one has been posted before, it's about Hillary Duff: http://oceanup.com/2010/07/07/hilary-duff-rocks-joe-jonas-glasses . Look also at the coments.

Crystal Veil: If you watch the interview with John Sebastian closely, you can see he is a myope. Watch for the difference in the background behind him thru his lenses, also there's some cut-in. 8-)

John Sebastian interview. What a superb songwriter!
Crystal Veil 16 Aug 2010, 15:20
Thanks! I never heard this song before. Very atypical for Loving Spoonful. John Sebastian had glasses but I doubt if they had any Rx.
Aside from "Les filles ā lunettes" and "Judy in disguise" I never heard songs dedicated to GWGs. Are there more that escaped my ear??
16 Aug 2010, 14:37

The legendary Lovin' Spoonful actually did their own song about glasses way back in the 1960s. Listen to these lyrics.
Crystal Veil 16 Aug 2010, 09:12
Great! That's how I felt when Loving Spoonful hit the charts with the song. Sweet memories....
I was a singer-songwriter at the time but it took me another 35 years before writing my own song in praise of GWG's. The song is called "Crystal Veil" and it will be played as background music to the video of my exhibition "Ladies behind crystal veil" (Sept 16th in Enschede, The Netherlands). I intend to post the lyrics of the song here on Eye Scene by the time the video is ready
All4Eyes 15 Aug 2010, 20:01
OK, I didn't alter the lyrics on this one too much, but I just had to say a few words about the plight of the poor "bilensual" OO:
Loving Spoonfuls' Did you ever have to make up your mind-ES version
Did you ever have to make up your mind?
Pick up on one and leave the other one behind
It's not often easy, and not often kind
Did you ever have to make up your mind?
Did you ever have to finally decide?
Say yes to one and let the other one ride
There's so many changes, and tears you must hide
Did you ever have to finally decide?
Sometimes there's one with big blue eyes, cute as a bunny
then one with tiny green ones, you think she's your honey
And just when you think she's that one in the world
Your heart gets stolen by some astigmatic girl
And then you know you better make up your mind
Pick up on one and leave the other one behind
It's not often easy, and not often kind
Did you ever have to make up your mind?
Sometimes you dig a hyperope the moment you kiss her
And then you get distracted by her myope sister
Those glowing plus lenses, they get you each time
But those white power rings sure mess with your mind
Then you bet you'd better finally decide!
And say yes to one and let the other one ride
There's so many changes, and tears you must hide
Did you ever have to finally decide

About those pictures of Madonna, it says: "tournage scenes pour WE", it means that she is filming some movie. So the frames and her looks may be part of the character she plays.

This isn't about musicians really, but it's a song parody, so thought I'd put it here. It's based on the Beatle's "I get by with a little help from my friends".

I'M NOT BLIND WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM MY LENS
I DON'T MIND A LITTLE HELP FROM MY LENS

YES THEY TELL ME THAT I'M NOW A NERD
BUT REALLY I THINK THAT I LOOK GOOD THIS WAY

Those are definitely prescription glasses for Madonna. She has been seen in public with reading glasses for several years now and it looks like these are first pair of progressives. I think they look quite nice on her Melyssa
Melyssa 10 Aug 2010, 12:26
Soundmanpt,
I don't recall any personal knowledge of Katy Perry until I saw her picture in the local Sunday paper's TV section, a small picture of her wearing those glasses. Those frames are hot, certainly more than Ma-donut's choice.
Melyssa 10 Aug 2010, 12:24
Madonna looks like she's wearing glasses normally worn by 80-year-old men (well, at least through 1980). That's one frame I would never want.
Soundmanpt 10 Aug 2010, 12:13
Jennifer
Pretty sure her glasses have a prescription. If you notice she has sunglasses hanging from her top as well. I doubt she would bother with fake glasses and have shades as well.
We must remember she is not all that young anymore, they could easily be bifocals, not saying they are.
Jennifer 10 Aug 2010, 12:05
That picture of Madonna makes her look tired and older. For a woman who obsessed with looking youthful, those choice of frames make her look older.

Thanks! I kinda wondered if that might not be the case. I would have been surprised if Melyssa didn't know who Katy Perry was because they both tend to favor retro style glasses.
Crystal Veil
Honestly I had never heard of the group before. It was more of a guess on my part that if one wore glasses the other two maybe did as well. I am not too young not to remember Sandie Shaw. I think I have a record of hers. For the youngsters thats a round thing bigger than a CD with a big hole in the middle.
Crystal Veil 09 Aug 2010, 13:46
@ Soundmanpt, Val, 4 iiii,
Re your discussion about "Pussycat": as far as I remember, they were three sisters from Limburg, in the south of Holland, although a name ending with "stra" would indicate their family came from the north. And yes, their biggest hit was "Mississippi". I never met them in person, only saw them on TV. I am sure that none of the girls ever wore glasses on TV, not when performing, not during interviews.
Some great female singers from the 1960's and 1970's did wear glasses off stage and I remember seeing pictures of Sandie Shaw in glasses (a rectangular black frame and a John Lennon frame). I estimate her Rx was around minus five
Anya 09 Aug 2010, 09:55

Is that someone other than Betty that wore the plastic frames? If they are sisters I would not be surprised if all 3 needed correction, maybe contacts when preforming.

Not sure why, but I always thought they were very special ladies, and still do !

SOUNDMANPT thank you ! thats all i can find as well.I remember seeing a vidio clip in the mid 70s,and thinking to myself, what a beautiful voice and she's wearing glasses !!! could not believe it ! I think theire hit then was "Mississippi " hope thats the correct spelling! thanks again.

I think it's very hard to find pictures of "Pussycat" showing any of the three sisters wearing glasses at the time they were famous (1975-1981). In concerts or at TV shows, none of the girls used to wear glasses.
But at least one of the guys from the did: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpC2Tn2okg8

On Google they show a "Best of Pussycat" CD. The picture of the band looks like something from the 70's or 80's. There is several young ladies in the band. The one in the center of the picture in blond and looks very attractive but not wearing glasses. Is this the group you are thinking of?

One of my latest models, Marleen, has recently switched to glasses almost identical to Lena's glasses. She is tired of the retro style that dominated all Dutch opticians stores for two decades and I think she is right!

The lovely Lena Meyer-Landrut who last night secured Germany's first Eurovision Song Contest win since 1982 (nine years before she was born!) may not be A GWG but she is clearly a girl who likes her look in glasses as this interview clip and image show.
I don't think she has an RX but personally I think it is cool to see a young celebrity embracing glasses culture whether she actually needs them or not.

If you enlarge the images (click once, and then again)especially the one viewed from the side you get a good idea of the lenses.
They are similar to my wifes, and so I would guess at around +2 with some cylinder and quite possibly some prism. This shows up as vertical lines in the lens, to the right hand side for base out, and to the left side of the lens for base in, i.e. to correct inward or outward turning of the eyes.
At an extreme angle prism correction can give the impression of power rings even in plus correction lenses.
I would hazard a guess that Britney has a slight turn-in of her right eye needing about 3 degrees of base out prism.

Saw the lovely and talented Laura Veirs http://lauraveirs.com/ last night near DC. Her show was great and she was very entertaining and friendly. I spoke to her a little afterwards and got a couple of CDs signed. And yes, despite the bare-eyed look in her recent photoshoot, she was wearing her great-looking black specs throughout. She's definitely a person who is better looking in person than in photos. If you are in the southern, middle or western US, you will still have a chance to catch her in concert in the next few weeks.

I saw an interview in uk cosmo with pixie lott and she was asked how things had changed since she became famous. One of the things she said was about just leaving the house with no make up and her glasses on. They do look as though they are minus and would make sense if she had been on a long haul flight and not wanted to wear contacts.
Melyssa 05 Jan 2010, 11:48
Rita,
Try http://www.bleudame.com/. They have some "clear glasses" in large styles, along with sunglasses, with which you can then do what I do -- change to clear, prescription lenses.
In the 1980s I bought a lot of frames from Diplomat, which is no longer around but maybe some frames could be out there. Among my newer glasses are some Kenmark frames, such as Judy (a black/white/crystal drop-temple frame) and Milan (a blue horn-rim pair).
gwgs 05 Jan 2010, 07:33
Turns out I got the aforementioned sellers name slightly wrong, here's a link to his shop;
http://shop.ebay.com/dr.hugo/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1
If you don't find anything here, don't despair, there are loads of other vintage / oversized glasses for sale on ebay
gwgs 05 Jan 2010, 07:32
Rita, try http:/www.eBay.com - there are thousands of frames for sale on here and numerous sellers offering either brand new vintage 70s/80s frames or second frames from this era with prescription lenses. One seller in particular who often offers such retro gems is "drhugo" - try typing his name into the advanced search options where it says "search by seller" or try searching for "80s eyeglasses", "70s eyeglasses", "large eyeglasses" etc.
Good luck and let us know if you find some!
Rita 05 Jan 2010, 06:12
Melyssa,
Can you recommend any sites where I can buy these huge frames? I live overseas and can't find anything online so far. Personally, I would love to get a pair for myself.
Also, would you mind sharing with us the make and model of your frames? Thanks...
Speximann 04 Jan 2010, 14:26
The great thing about the renewed interest in the larger plastic frames is now GWGs have the option of either the smaller style frames or ?and the larger frames seen on the younger stars. This may actually create MORE GWGs. Wish'in & a Hope'in.

Melyssa 04 Jan 2010, 12:53
Lentifan,
You can always move to the east coast of the U.S., which is last in getting just about anything from eyewear to soda. I wear large frames not just to make a fashion statement or to be a nonconformist, but because I need them for a better frame fit and to be able to see better peripherally.
ehpc 04 Jan 2010, 12:15

lentifan 04 Jan 2010, 12:08
Pete (ehpc)
Just in case a lack of response to your provocative email is mistaken for agreement:
I sincerely hope these large frames DO NOT make a come-back.
1 Most wearers were not flattered by them and in some cases they looked plain silly.
2 IMHO many potential wearers were frightened off wearing glasses by the prevailing fashion for unflattering frames and resorted to contact lenses instead. Today, the options would include surgery as well.
It would probably lead to a significant reduction in GWG. I am therefore comforted by the belief that the glasses industry will not behave against their interests.

I think you guys should look at differently. Who cares that it's Britney Spears wearing the glasses. What matters is she may be starting a new trend of bring back 80's style glasses back. All she has to do is start a trend and then you'll see the larger frames back in style. I know many of you guys like the bigger frames!

Last night the biography channel did an hour special on Carrie Underwood. There was about a 20 second clip on her giving a speech at what looks like her college graduation. She was wearing some silver semi-rimless glasses that looked like they had a slight prescription in them. I'm trying to find photos of this. Could someone else help me look for them.

I have to confess that I do find Avril Lavigne quite fanciable. Not bothered by her music - I don't dislike it and I don't like it. I just turn the sound down on the tv if she comes on but I keep watching! I read somewhere that she has astigmatism in one eye and the other eye she has pretty much perfect vision. I don't know if she wears contacts when she's not wearing glasses but I would guess she does if she wore glasses full time at school.

our (I think) favourite GWG girl singer, Ingrid Michaelson has a new song release and its being heavily promoted on BBC radio next week apparently. She's touring in the UK and Europe during October and November.
Its true that her web site shows here sans glasses in some of the shots but there are plenty where the glasses still feature so I dont think there are any worries about the L word, even if she's becoming wealthy.
Her Myspace site shows 10.5M plays of her other single.

She's just a part-time contacts wearer, I'd wager.
Guest of a guest 06 Oct 2009, 14:54
Given the way we've seen Nelly Furtado squinting feverishly in some pics posted on the net, I guess it's safe to say these are her first glasses. WOW. She must have been walking around in a literal blur. Especially during her concerts!

I remember years ago seeing photos of Nelly Furtado wearing glasses in concert (a smaller frame than the pair she has now). I suspect that she just doesn't tolerate contacts well for long periods of time, so sometimes she has to go with the specs.
She seems comfortable with it, though, which is very cool.

Taylor Swift has a very mild prescription - likely around -1.50D from the pictures I saw on the links posted her a few months back. This is not "nearsighted as hell". And no, I didn't keep the links.

TS Fan 17 Sep 2009, 06:32
After watching Taylor Swift at the MTV VMA Awards, I am even more convinced she is nearsighted as hell. She had this half-squint during most of the night, and I thought I read somewhere that she really does need glasses but doesn't wear them often. I think the glasses in her video were real though.

Female British rapper Speech Debelle sometimes wears glasses. I hadn't really heard much about her until she won the Mercury Music Prize on Wednesday. I'm not a big fan of rap so I was hoping that someone else was going to win. But at least she was a GWG and seems far less annoying than Dizee Rascal who was the last rapper to win the Mercury Prize.
Only 1 pic of her in glasses on her website but if you search for her in Google Images you will find more.

In early 2010, Lisa Loeb will release her own eyewear line, modeled after the iconic frames she's known for. As she puts the finishing touches on the designs, Lisa wanted to get some input from her friends and fans - some friendly and low-key market research. Spend two minutes answering the attached questions -- and you can help Lisa decide on her final designs!

While watching the Eurovision Song Contest Semi-Final on Tuesday night I noticed a woman who was part of the Swedish singer's entourage sitting in the green room wearing a very large pair of black rimmed specs. I've also noticed that one of the singers in the Swedish group Those Dancing Days wears similar specs.
I am going to Sweden in a couple of weeks - it'll be interesting to see if this trend is reflected acros the general population.
13 May 2009, 05:14

Diva spotted the 'context'. Tim and his supporter did not.
ehpc 04 May 2009, 09:48
If 'your saying he is wearing full time now' is the subject (which grammatically it could be) that would express the idea that Marie was getting excited about the fact that Julian passed on this information, not the fact that Marie finds Justin Timberlake (whoever he is) exciting wearing glasses. If, as in the context of this forum one might reasonably expect, Marie is excited by the fact that the chap wears glasses, rather than being excited by the fact the Julian told her the chap wears glasses, then the grammar would definitely need to be 'you're'. Marie's initial 'apology' and Diva's post are correct.

Thank you, Filthy. My point exactly!

Singer Justin Timberlake has confirmed that he wears glasses because he needs them, not because they are a fashion statement.
He told television host Jimmy Kimmel that he is short sighted and needs to wear his glasses, reported Javno.
Any bets as to his Rx?
Mr Timberlake had been spotted wearing glasses last week and confirmed that it was not because he was trying to be fashionable.
He told Mr Kimmel he had "embraced" his poor vision and "made a commitment with these glasses", adding, "I`m good."
Demonstrating his restricted vision, the singer told the host that while he could see him, he could not see the audience.
Filthy McNasty 30 Apr 2009, 07:32
Ah, the arch cattiness of the grammar police.
One can correctly say "Your saying he is a full time wearer is cool." It is equivalent to saying, "The fact that you say he is a full time wearer is cool." The subject of the sentence is the phrase, "Your saying he is a full time wearer."
If you seek to police others, you'd better be right.
diva 30 Apr 2009, 04:27
You're incorrect, Tim.
'Your' is a possessive. 'You're' is an abbreviation for 'you are'.
These are two very different things, and 'your' is NOT appropriate in the context of the post.
I hope you don't work in any industry that requires a great amount of written reporting (or that you employ an excellent proofreader if you do).
;)
Tim 29 Apr 2009, 20:04
All 4 eyes - if you *really* knew English you would have known that in that context "your" is just as appropriate as "you're".
Sorry, but I had to put in my pennyworth on that one!

Julian: Oh, that's wonderful news about Justin Timberlake! I saw a little snippet of him on one of those entertainment news shows where he was wearing glasses, but figured it was probably a rare occassion, since I'd never seen him in specs before, but your saying he's wearing full time now, too cool.
Julian 28 Apr 2009, 17:41
I know somebody mentioned Justin Timberlake a couple of months ago...apparently he has accepted that he's too myopic to function without correction, and is happily wearing glasses full time. Lots of references and pictures if you search 'Justin Timberlake glasses'

All4Eyes and Jen,
There is another great concert video of Roy Orbison called "A Black and White Night". It was obviously filmed in only those colors.
If you get Sundance Channel, it often airs a couple of documentaries concerning the Traveling Wilburys. There is some great stuff about Roy. Unfortunately, he suffered his heart attack and passed away during that time.
Also, Elvis Costello has a weekly show on Sundance that you might enjoy.
All4Eyes 31 Mar 2009, 16:02
Jen: I should add that I first fell in love with Roy watching that very video you mentioned. Up till then I'd heard "Pretty Woman" on the radio, of course, but I didn't really know who he was and I'd never seen him. I was really taken in by his hyper halos, they had this hypnotic effect on me I'd only felt from power rings before (but power rings and minus lenses are still my favorite overall).
I ALWAYS make passes at guys who wear glasses (especially if they can sing!), Marie 8-)
All4Eyes 31 Mar 2009, 15:45
Jennifer: I LOVE Roy Orbison and have spent many an hour gazing upon his glasses. My best guess as to rx would have to be somewhere in the +8 area.

Also, in this particular concert he was performing with Bruce Springsteen and Elvis Costello. Does anyone know whether Elvis Costello's glasses are plus or minus? The frames were those big ones from the 80's.

Many thanks look forward to seeing them.
Will be interesting to see if they are + or -. Her sister had a number of pics posted that definitely showed a minus rx of about -2.00

Jennifer 23 Jul 2008, 08:36
Maybe "Scriptfinder" (who's been posting on the Actors thread) can do some research for us and tell us what Britney's rx is. Britney's little sister, Jamie Lynn, has been seen wearing her glasses a lot while she was pregnant. I wonder if contacts were uncomfortable for her to wear during her pregnancy.
SimonC 23 Jul 2008, 07:06
I have some pics of Britney in Specs. Quite strange as in one pair there is noticeable cut in and some bits behind the lenses minifide. Then another few pics showing definite plus lenses. I will try to post them somewhere.
Aubrac 23 Jul 2008, 02:05
BRITNEY SPEARS post 21 July
Judging from one of the pics shot looking her left hand side, I would say the lenses are about +1.50 to +2.00.
They also show some cutout in one of the pics, my wife has this scrip and her lenses look exactly the same viewed from the side.
Anyone have other good lens pics of Britney or info on her scrip?

VFL,
I've always been able to spot hard lenses pretty easily. Since soft lenses are larger, cover the entire iris, and seem to be self centering, they are much more difficult to notice. I'm certain that vitually all professional photographers would ask to have contacts removed for a close up photo for magazines, books, CD covers and such. They are way too concerned about "blemishes" and often "air brush" the photos for perfection.
Guest555 22 Jul 2008, 06:54
Has any of you guys ever watched Celine Dion's music video for the 93 song "The power of love"? You'll get a pretty long and clear view at her RGP lenses floating in her eyes... I wonder when she had LASIK...
VFL 22 Jul 2008, 06:05
Do photographers who are taking photos for album covers...and even cinemaphotographers ever ask actors to remove their contact lenses because they are too noticeable in the "shot?"
I can see my own rgp lenses in some close up photos. When I wore the soft lenses I never saw that. I guess I don't care. But people really can see your lenses, can't they?

Dieter 21 Jul 2008, 06:06
Looking at a copy of the Ingrid Michaelson CD in Target this weekend, I noticed the photo on the back shows a half face close-up. At first, I was disappointed that she wasn't wearing glasses until I noticed a very obvious RPG contact resting on the pretty brown iris of her eye. Whoa. Even when she's not seen in glasses, she's making a statement.

The degree of cut-in suggests at least -8.00 and maybe more. She is confident and totally at ease with her glasses and they are a part of her. As a result, many of us would consider her, optically speaking, close to the 'ideal woman' !

She really does look good in specs. Anyone hazard a guess at her rx? I thought she was presbyopic but she appeared to wear her glasses comfortably while interviewing guests at a distance. On the other hand she dispensed with them for part of the programme. I used to think she was arrogant but she came over as rather nice yesterday. And she is one incredible gwg!

I think she wears glasses for distance and reading and would reckon she is about +3.

Remember awhile back when I said I wondered if Aaron Lines wore glasses? If so, you can imagine my joy at discovering this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hx24WZ8Cf78 (the good part's toward the end). I know I've said I'm not wild about reading glasses, and I did really have him pegged as a myope, but nevertheless, I like this! Pity those are probably just props that he doesn't actually need, though they are real plus lenses (I think). I'm going to send an email to his fan mail address and tell him I think he looks great in those glasses and ask if he wears specs in real life.

I don't know how many of you are country music fans like me, but the other day I was listening to Kenny Chesney's Greatest Hits and when "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy" came on, a light bulb appeared over my bespectacled head and I thought if I tinkered with the lyrics a bit I could turn it into a song about, well, something even sexier than a tractor. Then after I wrote it I realized this song is about me-I am SO that girl staring at the nearsighted guy in thick spex and drooling over every little detail of his visual experience! And so, without further ado, here is "She Thinks My Spex Are Sexy" (it's highly recommended that you listen to the original as you read this, next best thing to actually hearing someone sing my version (there wouldn't happen to be anyone here who'd like to try it and put it on the Net somewhere, would there?) ):
Sliding down my nose in the hot summer sun
my thick, heavy spex, lordy here she comes
staring at my plastic frames and the lenses I need to see
I tilt my head a bit and the white rings gleam
push 'em up my nose and the girl just beams
Just look at her face, she ain't a-foolin' me
She thinks my spex are sexy
they really turn her on
She's always staring at me
while I've got glasses on
She likes the way they shine just like a coin fresh from the mint
she's even kinda crazy 'bout my bare-eyed squint
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
she thinks my spex are sexy
She likes for me to tell her all about my sight
how I can't read the signs or see well at night
everything's a fog, I need a guide dog if my spex aren't on
She says she's got a dream and I ask what it is
She wants a little house full of myopic kids
and one more teeny-weeny squint before I take her home
She thinks my spex are sexy
they really turn her on
She's always staring at me
while I've got glasses on
She likes the way they shine just like a coin fresh from the mint
she's even kinda crazy 'bout my bare-eyed squint
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
she thinks my spex are sexy
Well, she ain't into legs or a cute, tight butt
but if your eyes are bad, man her eyes light up
She thinks my spex are
She thinks my spex are sexy
they really turn her on
She's always staring at me
while I've got glasses on
She likes the way they shine just like a coin fresh from the mint
she's even kinda crazy 'bout my bare-eyed squint
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
she thinks my spex are sexy
she thinks my spex are sexy
she thinks my spex are sexy
Hmm, I wonder what Kenny'd think of that? He'd probably sue me, but oh well, I won't tell if y'all won't!
I ALWAYS make passes at guys who wear glasses, Marie

Tod, I had no reason to think that Becki's glasses weren't real so I didn't really study the thickness, just the overall look. But from what I could tell they were real prescription, though not terribly strong, -3?
Tod 04 Jun 2007, 21:27
Kisal, glad you got to see the Pipettes in person and up close. BTW how strong would you guess Riot Becki's glasses are? I know she is nearsighted. I have heard she is now wearing plano glasses over contact lenses. Did her glasses have a Rx in them?
kisal 04 Jun 2007, 08:05
I just had the wonderful opportunity to see The Pipettes in concert in Washington, DC. It was sublime! RiotBecki is so amazingly, absolutely, sexily gorgeous in her short shorts, tight polka-dot blouse and black-rimmed specs. It was a small club so I was able to get really close. The sound was great and the dancing was great and the best thing was that since she was on stage in front of us, I could stare and stare at her to my heart's content. It's never possible to stare so long at a stranger or even someone you know without embarassment, and in a movie they keep cutting away from the GWG. But in a concert I could keep my eyes glued to RiotBecki, who is just as beautiful in real life as in her pictures. (And the other girls are great to look at too, although not in glasses.)
If any of you live in England or California or Japan or Finland or any of the other places they will be touring this summer, you should certainly check them out: http://thepipettes.co.uk/

never even wears her specs while she is singing! At the beginning she has on some goofy-looking Elton John style sunglasses and near the end there are a few shots of her in glasses walking around and with her boyfriend. But sadly, for almost all of the video she is bare-eyed and ordinary.

Do I have your attention yet?
Well here's another to add to the list: Theresa Sokyrka (pronounced So-Keer-Ka). Someone put her video on another EyeScene page and I know that I have fallen in love with her! She was a runner-up on the Canadian Idol program a few years ago and has released two albums. She is in specs in every picture and nearly every video. I haven't found any good, large high resolution images yet but I'm sure they are out there. I think she has a new official page:
http://www.theresasokyrka.com/
and they don't yet have the pictures up.
Her myspace page is great:
http://www.myspace.com/theresasokyrka
Her songs are very good (country-rock that is not really my style, but I'm willing to overlook that). But definitely check out the video on that page. She wears fantastic glasses in most of it. Its kind of sad that in the fantasy section she doesn't wear glasses, but that's allright.
There are also many videos on YouTube including her Idol performances:

gwgs 01 Feb 2007, 01:43
The thing that always bugs me about this "spectacle wearer of the year award" is that the winner is ALWAYS someone who has only been seen in spex once or twice, if that at all.
I've only ever seen this Liz girl wearing spex on the TV show "I'm a celebrity, get me out of here" and as for the other girl, I've never seen her wearing glasses.
Several years in a row the winner of this award has come out of 0-0 woodwork wearing would appear to be planos.
I don't know where they find their winners from as I remember voting for this earlier in the year and gave my nominations for women that actually wore glasses, like Kate Silverton

I just remembered an article about Robert Smith of the Cure that I read ages ago - found a copy of it:
"Ross, when he first met me, was surprised at how unaware I am of the world around me. And on a very practical level, it's because I'm short-sighted. I don't wear glasses because I've found it's a very good defence mechanism. If I'm in public, I don't know if people are looking at me. But I can't actually see very well, I'm out of focus beyond my arm. And he thought I'd taken it too far, that I wasn't noticing the leaves on the trees. So I've started wearing glasses a lot more since I met him." There's a pause. He must think I look worried, because he adds hastily, "I always wore glasses to drive." It's a bit like Martin Amis, spending 25 years not smiling because he didn't want people to see his teeth; it sounds like a trivial, physical point, but you do wonder what it does to a person, to live the bulk of his adult life not seeing properly, just to evade the necessity of having to confront attention. It's another signal of his flexibility, as well, that he could adopt that modus operandi for so long, yet allow someone to call him on it, and then think, OK, maybe you're right, I'll change it.

This is a link to a "News" article on the Channel 4 Big Brother website. As this series only started on Wednesday evening there isn't many photos on the website yet. But keep checking http://www.channel4.com/bigbrother during the series as more photos will be added, although there is no guarantee that Jo will be wearing glasses in the photos as that depends how often and for how long she wears her glasses during her stay in the house. Hopefully she won't get voted out too soon!
I always thought Jo was the sexiest one in S Club 7 and had the best voice (Rachel Stevens came a close second with her looks but didn't have such a good voice.)

Guest : re downloading youtube files.
I expect that there are many ways of downloading such files but all I suspect involve a bit of work.
Here is a method I came across on another forum I visit:
"You can actually download and save the videos on youtube.com
Its a little work, but not too bad. You can also burn them to DVD after you save them.
First download and install RIVA FLV Encoder 2.0 at this link http://rivavx.de/index.php?downloads&L=3
When you find a video on youtube you want to save, copy the URL for the video to the right of the video on the web page. Open a browser and go to the following link
http://keepvid.com/ . At the top of the page there is a place to paste the URL and you have to pick youtube as the site then start the download. The full instructions are on the web page. You have to save the with a FLV ext.
Then you can play the file in the RIVA player or convert it to a mpg using the RIVA flv encoder".

While I am not a Country Music fan, I am Canadian and do see enough pictures of him. I haven't seen any with him wearing glasses. Sorry!
All4Eyes 30 Jun 2006, 12:14
Does anyone know if Canadian country singer Aaron Lines ever wears/needs glasses? Ive never seen him wearing any, but it seems to me in most of his pics (go to www.aaronlines.com to see) and TV appearances he has a serious power squint going. Hes absolutely gorgeous and Im madly in something with him (love seems a bit strong considering he doesnt even know me, but I think about him constantly and I feel all funny when I do-like I get butterflies in my stomach and then they decide to fly south!) anyway, but to see him in a nice pair of minus glasses (and preferably nothing else, but Im trying not to get overheated here!)-WOAH! The very idea gives me hot flashes! *Sigh* BTW, I wrote a poem about him, nothing to do with glasses, except of course I suspect he needs them, but I think its pretty good and hot anyway and Id love to share if yall care to see it (thought Id ask first, though, because I know sometimes off-topic posts are a nuisance, although I think some of our tangents are rather interesting, the people in this group are so wonderfully intelligent, witty and diverse in viewpoints). OK, now please excuse me while I go take a cold shower. ;)

Was watching a documentary on E! Channel this evening about female American Idol winners (Ok I'm bored with the World Cup and its hard to find anything else to watch at the moment !).
Anyway it included some footage of a young Kelly Clarkson - about 14 years old - wearing big framed glasses with a pretty strong minus RX. Nice.
Any pics anyone ?

Is it common to suddenly need glasses as strong as hers? - they look stronger than +1.50 and she is obviously supposed to wear them most if not all the time. Her right eye seems more magnified than the left.

girls aloud off the record is on again tonight at 10.30 on e4, hopefully nicola will be wearing her lovely glasses again especially now she's got real ones aswell, its great she actually has a proper prescription and wears glasses rather than wearing contacts or going for laser/lasik surgery. also maybe there'll be more cheryl tweedy wearing glasses. both look really great in specs and can't wait till tonights show

Guest 08 May 2006, 02:41
Re Nicola from Girls Aloud, those photos were from the Paul O'Grady Show in UK. She walked on wearing them & he complimented her, then when they had all sat down, he raised the subject again asking her about her glasses & how it was nice that she wasnt wearing contacts like most other celeb singers. She replied that she had only just had then & didnt want contacts in case she had to rely on them. I would say they are around +1.50 and she seems to wear them more now than not.
On a different sighting, check out one of the singers from all girl band The Pipettes. They are from Brighton (UK) and she is hot - never seen photo or video where she isnt wearing glasses - check out their video on their official website www.thepipettes.co.uk

Great find. I have been looking for pictures of her since she appeared in the sun last week. She was wearing a secatary outfit with some small wire framed glasses, which has to be said did not compliment her at all. And of course, the sun did not give her a great writeup. But these glasses really look great on her.

Lesley Garrett is indeed an insufferable woman. But I love those specs. And she is rather attractive if she keeps her mouth shut. I wonder why she's taken up as a gwg at 50. Maybe there was some latent hyperopia there which surfaced as she became presbyopic. Quite nice for the middle aged among us how our female contemporaries pile into specs in their 40s and 50. I was always a "minus" man myself! But I must confess that reading specs, and plus lenses generally, are growing on me with age!!

Oscar 31 Mar 2006, 17:33
Lentifan you put it very well, I think! I find her very irritating indeed on the TV.
I've heard her sing quite a lot in the past (at English National Opera, where she was a decent company soloist for quite a while before "stardom" overcame her), including some big roles, notably Strauss's "Salome". She went off the boil rather after that, and moved into recording discs of predictable operatic favourites and not doing much else.
lentifan 31 Mar 2006, 15:03
Completely off topic, but apropos Ms Garrett:
I do not comment on her singing ability and she may be saintly in her private life, but, based on her media persona she is a pain in the arse. Or am I the only one allergic to her relentless jokiness and self-regard?
ehpc 31 Mar 2006, 14:59

Maverick 30 Mar 2006, 05:04
Phil : Lesley Garrett appears to have gone full time.She wore them all the time on 'Countdown' the other week, where in the past she has only used them to read.
I just this minute flicked the TV over to 'Loose Women' (a prog I hasten to add I usually avoid like the plague!)where she is a regular and, yes, she was on and wearing her red framed glasses.
She is long sighted not myopic, by the way.
Phil 30 Mar 2006, 00:02
Saw photo of Lesley Garrett in Hello wearing an outrageously lovely pair of red square-framed specs. I didn't know she was a gwg! She's same age as me so it could be presbyopia. But if she's fulltime it's more likely to be hyperopia or even previously uncorrected myopia? Anyone know? Whatever the lenses she looked yummy. Odd how so many people take up specs for myopia around age of presbyopia. Maybe they get sorted by optician for first time when problems become more complex than just a bit of blur in the distance.

Name is B - a few years ago Lisa (Loeb) said in an interview that she was -5.75. Given that was in 2002, I would think if her prescription has increased now that she would be above -6, could be even -7!!
Curt 23 Mar 2006, 13:19
Wally: There were a few fakes going around a few years ago - I have copies of them on my computer at home. They were not even very good fakes at that. I have not seen any real pictures of her with specs, however.
name is B but call me T 23 Mar 2006, 11:56
Saw Lisa Lobe on that TV dating show, whatever. she took off her glasses to try on her dates glasses. His were a low minus -1 or -2. she said she could not see with his glasses on. She gave them back and was trying to see without any glasses on and she said she's "nearly blind without her glasses". Then she put her own glasses back on. I then noticed there is a lot of "cut in" in her lenses. Her glasses seem to be (minus) -6 at least.

small amounts of astigmatism and dissimilarities between eyes can be very problematic for some people, especially if they have any other issues going on like any phorias, or even a tendency to migrains or headaches or even just stress in general.
If someone gets glasses that don't help anything, then they will eventually get rid of them. But no harm in trying if you have something you are trying to fix. And then there are just people who maybe just like glasses, or want the added protection of having lenses in front of their eyes. If nothing else, they help with UV protection!

I heard from g/f a while ago that someone told her she needed to ditch the spex in order to "break" the States.
God knows who gave her this stupid comment as you just have to name Lisa Loeb who is a fantastic spex wearer to know this comment isn't true.
She obviously took it on board though :(
Lazysiow 30 Oct 2005, 12:56
it's a pity, I don't think she's half as pretty without them.
Anyone know a source for her full Sick and Tired video, thats the only time I've ever seen her where regular glasses and not disguised as shades. Se looks quite good too. I wanted to deck the guy beating on her.

Guess she really might have eye surgery!!

gwgs 24 Oct 2005, 03:06
Read an article with Anastacia yesterday, there were several references in it to her glasses.
One of them said she needed glasses badly as her eyesight was "extremely bad", one of other quoted mentioned "her thick lenses often protuded outside of her frames as she couldn't see without her stylish collection of glasses."
One thing disappointed me though; towards the end of the article the journalist mentions she had laser eye surgery and asks Anastacia about it. She responds "it's great, now i can see everything really clearly but i still like to wear glasses occasionly".
What a girl!

On the contrary, it's you people who have a problem, walking around in your cheap wire or plastic frames.
Thank God for West Hollywood and the Hamptons, where my customers know the value of a lavishly-tooled wooden frame and aren't prepared to disfigure their faces with Lenscrafter's semi-rimless or whatever the latest fashion is in Hoboken or Des Moines.

"Well, if you guys are such losers that you can't afford to spend $900 on something as important as glasses frames, that's not my problem"
If the majority of people on the board, who are interested in all aspects of optics, including frame styles, would appear not to think that these frames represent value for money, surely as the manufacturer, you do have a problem.

to burger box.
how could you compare individually hand carved wooden frames to McGlasses? Dont you think all the brands you buy in the glasses stores are a bit more McHanized? All the same, made over in millions of the same fabrication, then stamped with a label so suckers will lust after them. Sounds a bit more burger than frames which are considered as art by a few galleries. Just my thoughts though.
Good Day.

Hey y'all. Check out this lovely singer/songwriter from the Pacific Northwest (USA) -- Laura Veirs: http://www.lauraveirs.com/ She's a full-time GWG with a great voice and sound. She sounds like Suzanne Vega and looks like Lisa Loeb. The pics and videos on the site are a bit disappointing: small and grainy, but the video for "Galaxies" is pretty nice. I first heard about her because she is the daughter of one of my old college physics professors.

Do you wear glasses? Phil, London
I used to when I was younger, but now I've stopped. I fancied a pair of glasses when I was younger so I said: "I can't see the A!" And they gave me really strong glasses, but after six months I was getting chronic headaches.

There is a German pop-star called Jeanette Beidermann (often described as a German Brittney Spears!) who is auctioning 6 pairs of glasses for charity on eBay. The price has gone quite high on most of them, but each is accompanied by a hand written note from her about the frames, a note of her exact prescription and a picture of her wearing them. Well worth a look.

HaHaHa...
"C. Britney has poor eyesight. Our early ancestors relied on keen eyesight to avoid predators and locate food. Weak visual acuity doomed individuals to early death or reliance on the kindness of others. Britney Spears requires corrective lenses to improve her eyesight. Eyeglasses detract from her overall appearance and indicate that her descendants will most likely stumble about half-blind as they attempt to avoid hungry lions and vicious, man-eating elephants in the forest primeval!"
The bit that is the funniest is where it says "Eyeglasses detract from her appearance"
Err, no they don't!!! They significantly add to it.

Julian 09 May 2005, 02:28
Yes, I'd have thought John Lennon's Rx was a lot more than -2. In his introduction to 'John Lennon in his own write' Paul McCartney wrote about their early acquaintance and said something like:
Was he deep? He wore glasses so it was possible, and without them there was no holding him. "What bus?" he would say, to roars of delighted laughter.
justme 08 May 2005, 23:40
Lennon described himself as 'blind' without his glasses- he wore them from quite a small child( he and his ex wife Cynthia had similarly poor eyesight- it's how they got together in college, everyone testing how far they could see.He also wore hard contacts for some time before 'outing' himself in public. Though I don't know I would say his prescription was considerably higher than -2, there are lots of pics out there through the years, both his sons are also shortsighted.
LG 08 May 2005, 18:04
Contacts in the 60's were known as "hard lenses" and were about $400 per pair. They were very uncomfortable. My sister, who is about -7, got them in 64. PITA !! As they did not flex, any tiny grain of anything resulted in a scratched cornea. Most people, like Lennon, would probably prefer to go bare eyed at -2. As his focus was his music, most of his activities would be occurring within 2 feet of his face. (Trust me, on stage, you don't see anything beyond the front of the stage anyway!) Another factor is the progressive nature of most myopia. It could very well be that he did not develop that Rx until he was in his 20's.
Tim 08 May 2005, 16:08
Do any of you have any idea what John Lennon's prescription might have been? I'd guess -2 but I'm not sure if I can tell from his glasses. Old glasses tend to look thick even if they are not strong. But more interesting would be to know if he used contact lenses before going public with his glasses? I really have no idea how common contact lenses where back in the sixties. Maybe it was more normal to go around in a haze if you weren't very nearsighted (and Lennon probably wasn't).

SLB 22 Apr 2005, 14:42
Its the same effect with cameras - for a given focus the smaller the aperture the greater the depth of field about that focus point - squinting is effectivly just reducing the aperture.
daffy 21 Apr 2005, 17:51
gwgs - i discovered that too. That's how pin-hole glasses work. I remember a little about the physics of why it works, but don't have time (if you're wondering).
gwgs 21 Apr 2005, 08:51
Guest - here's a quote i took off a Lisa Loeb site years ago, as you are aware, most spec wearers prescription increases over time so she is more than likely to be - as you say - nearer -6 or even higher now :)
Q:
So, what's the prescription on those bad boys? Are we talking legally blind? Would you know a loved one past 5 feet?
Does squinting really help myopics or is it just an endearing way to tell us sighted people you have no idea what we're
showing you?
A:
Squinting does help to a certain extent. Also, making a tiny triangle- 1mm x 1mm with your fingers and looking
through it also helps (seriously). My prescription is -4.75 +0.50 x 8 in my right eye, and -5.75 + 0.50 x 24 in my left..
Guest 21 Apr 2005, 08:47
That same site also has pictures of Lisa Loeb. Any guesses as to her Rx? I think about -6. I've heard that her hunky boyfriend Dweezil Zappa also wears glasses. Has anyone ever seen him in glasses? If so, what is his Rx?

We haven't seen her in spex for a while, and sometimes during pregnancy womens eyesight gets worse.
Lets see her in -8's

jamie 13 Apr 2005, 09:48
britney spears is pregnant!!! we know she wears glasses and hopefully as her pregnancy progresses she won't be able to tolerate contact lenses any more as many women can't during pregnancy and will switch to glasses full time!! this is assuming that she wears contacts and isn't just an occasional glasses wearer. we can only hope!!

Sure, Shannon is cute, but as a guy that prefers guys in glasses, I find bearded Yann, cuter. His glasses are also stronger that any of the McDade family members.
I clicked to enlarge some of those Montreal pictures and was happy to see Jeremiah McDade's contacts. I then clicked around the rest of the site in search of pictures of him in glasses. Unfortunately, like his brother and sister, he too, wears a very weak prescription.

Found a very cute Canadian GWG fiddler named Shannon Johnson (not to be confused with the WNBA player of the same name, who is not, to the best of my knowledge, a GWG). Shannon the musician plays for a band called the McDades: http://themcdades.com/home/
You can find some nice pictures in the Photo Gallery, especially the Montreal photo shoot.

Curt,I spent ages looking for pictures of Toby in glasses but also found nothing.There may be some pictures coming up today on Getty Images also there may be some pictures and explanation of wearing glasses on her web site, when it is updated.
Ted.Quite attractive.
Curt 22 Feb 2005, 05:41
Ted: I think you are correct --- it was Toby Lightman. It says on her web page that she would be performing "Rocky Mountain High" in the pregame. It is strange that her web page contains no photos of her with glasses, however. I wonder if she lost/ruined a contact lens and had to wear glasses instead. They look like a fairly strong + prescription. Hopefully, we will see more of her...
Ted 21 Feb 2005, 14:04
Dave, do you remember what song she sang?
Dave 21 Feb 2005, 13:18
I never did catch her name. I was hoping someone here might know.
Ted 21 Feb 2005, 10:53
Could it possibly be Toby Lightman a 26 year old F/country singer who performed John Denvers hit Rocky Mountain High? Anyone have any other ideas.

If not the video, does anyone have Pics of Jessica wearing glasses?

Their eyesight is bad, sure, but that would still leave them the choice between glasses and contacts. And I guess that in many areas of "showbiz" particularly women are still supposed not to wear glasses. So if they do, this could be interpreted as a sign (the unexpected/unusual creates meaning, semiotically speaking). I assume (or fear) that in many cases it is just a marketing strategy, marketing meaning, among other things, to create differences to comparable "products" (probably, this is true of people such as Anastacia, whose musical style IMHO is pretty mainstream and thus similar to many others, it might not be true of Eddi Reader or Catie Curtis). I do not really believe that Solo have not thought about this (there is at least this one photo of Susanne without glasses). Well, probably they have come to the conclusion that they want to present themselves "just the way they really are" (the quotation marks are supposed to indicate that I doubt the concept), because authenticity is a major theme in their self-presentation (their bios, their lyrics, their music).
Tulip 12 Feb 2005, 02:12
Chloe,
Good job. The SOLO-girl is very, very attractive. Her frame fits very will and it's a good combination with the head shape and her beautiful hair.

Filthy McNasty 11 Feb 2005, 18:37
They are real Rx glasses, no doubt about it. No one wears glasses with that kind of strength unless they're OO or need them. Or both.
11 Feb 2005, 17:47
I have to agree with Julian on this one. A simple click to enlarge any picture and it's obvious that Erich has some plus power in his glasses and Susanne has some minus power in hers.
Julian 11 Feb 2005, 17:11
You don't think it's just that they both need glasses?
Chloe 11 Feb 2005, 06:42
Interesting couple-qua-musical-duo, oxymoronly called "Solo", both wearing glasses. http://www.solo.co.at/fotos.html
I guess the glasses are part of a strategy, creating the image of "the ordinary" for the project (not in a negative sense, but rather in the sense of the "couple next door"). And also to have a cohesive link between the two.

Kylie certainly looks hyperopic judging by her glasses.
Did all the Spice Girls wear glasses? And were they all short sighted? You can see from the Posh Spice photo that she is short sighted and I know that Sporty (Mel C) & Scary (Mel B) Spices are/were short sighted and I think Ginger(Geri) is also short sighted as I've seen her put glasses on to see something clearly in the distance. The only Spice Girl I haven't seen with real glasses is Baby (Emma).

Matt Tong fan 04 Feb 2005, 04:19
I reckon Matt's in the low double digits - minus 11 or 12. He must be the most short-sighted rock musician around: he couldn't see his drums without his specs. Very cute.
gwgs 03 Feb 2005, 09:24
Hi Karen,
I was going to say that photo has been around for years, but that would be stating the obvious!!
I've always thought those glasses were planos as they're slightly "oversized". Other photos of her with glasses clearly have a prescription but i didn't think these were prescription.

I have seen an old photo of Kylie wearing glasses. The photo was taken around 1993/4 and she is wearing glasses that were quite fashionable at the time - largeish metal frames. They seem very big compared to her current frames - small delicate ovals in wire.
It's difficult to work out the strength of the lenses as she is facing the person who took the photo and you can't see the sides of her face through the lenses to work out the magnification. Her eyes do look big but this may be my imagination. They are probably weaker than her current glasses but strong enough for her to wear them (probably) instead of contacts. I didn't know she had been wearing glasses for so many years.
If you want to see the picture go to http://www.sayhey.co.uk/ (you will have to register as it's a username + password site). When you have registered go to Kylie Picture Post and click on the topic subject "Glasses" (I actually started the thread to request photos of Kylie in her glasses). There are some nice pics of Kylie in her prescription glasses but also several of her in sunglasses. The old photo is near the bottom of page 2.

I've seen quite a few pics of Will Young taken from that photoshoot - there's no doubt that he's wearing a very mild minus Rx; you can even see a couple of power rings in places. Driving glasses, basically.

Julian 08 Jan 2005, 23:35
Julian 08 Jan 2005, 22:48
With that background it's difficult to tell about the Rx, but the second pic shows some distortion - low minus? cylinder? The frames are certainly curious; never seen that sort before but I suppose somebody was bound to dream up that design eventually.
Love and kisses, Jules.
VisitBoy 08 Jan 2005, 05:04
I've looked a bit more, and found these, but I'm sure there isn't a prescription there. Not my kinda frame either. :(

I'd say -6 or -7, which still means one hell of a blur when you wake up in the morning. I wouldn't mind waking up next to Clay and watch him fumble for his specs :)
Eclipse 21 Dec 2004, 14:49
I'm sure other people here are far better at guessing than me but I'll guess -8 based on there being far more than my -4 lens manages.
eric 21 Dec 2004, 07:05
Wow, great pic. I wonder how close Clay would have to hold those books if he tried to read them without his specs? Any guesses as to his Rx?

I don't think Elton induced his myopia from nothing. In various places I've read that he needed glasses to see the blackboard, but wore them all the time because he wanted to look like Buddy Holly. His eyes did get worse - up to about -5, I'd guess - but there's no way of telling what degree of this was induced by over-wear.
LikeGlass 20 Dec 2004, 17:24
Interesting that someone would write about Elton John inducing myopia. I was examining his glasses when down at the Hard Rock (some grainy pics I took here- http://www.geocities.com/likeglass55/ej.html ), and they appeared to be more prism, low index, and thick lens stock, then actually minus in the Rx. There is no doubt that there is correction but it looked like a refract in the -4 or -5 range.
Julian 20 Dec 2004, 17:09

Filthy McNasty 02 Dec 2004, 06:58
Possibly. It could also be the natural curvature of her phony little face. I don't doubt that there is a bit of Rx in there, though. It's just not much.
D-W-V 02 Dec 2004, 01:30

Still wondering about this "coming out" of Bono's....
Maverick 01 Dec 2004, 11:30
I'm not that bothered either way about Avril Lavigne, but all I'd say is that she must have some need for correction as she looked to be a full time wearer in her younger days - see the scan I posted a few weeks back.
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/2356/AvrilLavigne.jpg
Whilst the image is too ropey to determine what sort of lenses she had, it certainly could not be argued that they were props at that time in her life!
Curt 01 Dec 2004, 11:14
Yeah: I was also curious how the original poster figured out that they were - lenses...no power rings, no cut in, no minification of the background.
Avril states that she has astigmatism in her left eye, but I don't think it could be more than 0.5D of cylinder...
hmmmm
eric 01 Dec 2004, 10:38
Sorry, I meant Avril. What do you reckon her VA is - 20/20 or 20/10?
eric 01 Dec 2004, 10:35
On the basis of those pics, I can make a pretty shrew guess as to April's Rx
L: -0.00
R: -0.00
I could be wrong, of course. She could be wearing +0.00 lenses.
Filthy McNasty 01 Dec 2004, 10:27
There is no discernible script in those lenses. This is not to say that there is NO script, but I would bet that any correction is so low that they're essentially props.

Yep, although i only watched the first 10 minutes, i saw Sheila Ferguson wearing rimless ones.
I would expect Appleton to wear them as she is a well known gwg.
Eclipse 21 Nov 2004, 15:21
Does anyone know if Elton John has had the laser surgery he said he was going to about two years ago now? I don't remember ever seeing him without glasses on since then but the dark glasses he was wearing on Children In Need the other day didn't look prescription.
TV alerts for people in the UK:
There has been some brief clips of Sharon Osbourne on X Factor wearing black plastic frames. I couldn't tell the prescription but they didn't look very strong.
I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here started tonight and 4 out of 10 celebrities were spotted in the first episode. Joe Pasquale seems to be a full time wearer and I spotted Sheila Ferguson, Natalie Appleton and (I think)Nancy Sorrell briefly.
Julian 16 Nov 2004, 23:31

squinty 16 Nov 2004, 08:50
you have to enter "clay aiken glasses" into the search on that page. Definitly an improvement imho. Much prefer the brown plastic frames for sure.
Sort of makes him look like Seth Green's calmer gentler brother.
don't know if this will work but:
Eclipse 16 Nov 2004, 06:02
Clay Aiken wore a very "obvious" pair of glasses to the American Music Awards. There is a few pictures at:
I've only seen him wearing a much more "discreet" pair of rimless frames before now. One theory I read somewhere was that as he was made to get rid of his glasses when he was on American Idol maybe he is trying to get his look back closer to how it was before and that includes wearing glasses...
kisal 13 Nov 2004, 18:35
FaNaTiKX, those Alicia Keyes pics are fabulous! Isn't the internet a wonderful thing: some photographer can do a photo shoot with a celebrity in New York and we can all enjoy the results in living color.
On the other hand, avoid that Annette Stream link -- it tied up my browser trying to load some streaming video or something and I had to kill the browser to recover.

Karen X 25 Oct 2004, 13:36
Maybe Britney has a similar eyesight problem as Avril Lavigne. It is very difficult to tell what sort of prescription she has.
Alt 25 Oct 2004, 11:20
Britney is definitely plus
25 Oct 2004, 05:16
Please! Not again!!! Brittany does not wear plus lenses! They are minus all the way...

Those pictures from 9/25 of Avril Lavigne wearing glasses remind me of my first pair 40 years ago, except my modified cat's-eyes were brown instead of black, but the bottom part was also clear like her frames. Maybe in 20 years, she'll wear a Diplomat Veronica frame, my first drop-temples. :)
Ted 20 Oct 2004, 07:53
Lisa Loeb was also on the McEnroe show last night. He asked her about her glasses and she said she has poor vision and has been wearing specs since grade seven.She also said she gets asked a lot if they are for show or not.

Are Ashlee Simpsons glasses real? I've been wondering if she is short/near-sighted like her sister. I think she is better looking than Jessica.

Saw a rubbish film on the Horror channel on Sky earlier in the week called Serial Killer. As said rubbish except it stared Lisa Loeb who wore her glasses right through the film. Suddenly this poor movie now rates quite highly.

What is Avril's Rx?
Astigmatism in one eye? Is that like having a fever in your foot? LOL!

she's much more awful than Avril
Chris 28 Sep 2004, 23:16
http://www.alavigne.org/pictures/displayimage.php?pid=17036&fullsize=1
Astigmatism in the right eye?
As to "fake musician":
compared to Mrs. Spears, she's an Mozart.
Trevor 28 Sep 2004, 18:20
I have to agree with the "Fake Musician" comment. Ditto!
not very much talent there.
28 Sep 2004, 14:31
the fake glasses only compliment the fact that she is a fake musician.
Speximann 28 Sep 2004, 14:12
Thanks Chris for the great Avril pics. Even if her glasses are'nt real, she still looks great!

Ted 28 Sep 2004, 07:09
I saw a "life and times of AL". In one of the still shots of her childhood there was one picture I'm guessing age nine where she had on glasses. Picture quality not the best so not sure what the rx may have been. Program may have been on VH1.
Curt 28 Sep 2004, 06:23
I stand corrected. There does seem to be a tiny bit of reflection from the lenses in this picture. Still probably planos...
Curt 28 Sep 2004, 06:18
Maverick: that's exactly what I thought. I have not seen a picture yet of Avril where there is any reflection from the glasses she is wearing. Probably not even planos...<sigh>
Maverick 27 Sep 2004, 14:00
The latter I fear ! Would'nt go so far as to say they are planos - look like empty frames to me.
Curt 27 Sep 2004, 11:53
Yeah, Happy Birthday April! Now tell us, do those glasses have any lenses in them, or are they just for looks???

Karen X: Madonna's glasses may be reading glasses (or maybe bifocals). Several other pictures in the series show her reading from a book. Definitely not the same frames that she wore when introducing "The English Rose" or whatever her book was called.

I thought Madonna wore reading glasses. She wore them a few months ago when she was promoting her book and read some of it out to some children.
Curt 17 Sep 2004, 07:54
Pap: Go check for yourself...go to the Getty images site and use the search term "Madonna". There are several pictures of here there, all wearing the same clothes and the same glasses!
Pap 17 Sep 2004, 07:42
I think you got the wrong pic - that's not even Madonna!!!!!!!!1
And..... how could you possibly judge an rx from that pic?????
Hansel 16 Sep 2004, 14:21
Somewhat surprised mind you that the Vatican allowed her to sit in front of the Pope.

Hansel 16 Sep 2004, 14:13
And I await the jury's verdict on the Rx.
I heard she was shortsighted but my impression is a hint of astigmatism in the left eye????

Cazals - Aren't those the kind of glasses Spike Lee wore in his first movie: "She's Gotta Have It" I read the autobiography he wrote about making it, and there was this whole thing about how he had to get those glasses. It seemed like it was the biggest thing (or maybe just to me)
Wurm 27 Aug 2004, 19:50
Well, yeah, I'll probably get around to deleting this. Plenty of rudeness on both sides.
I did get a laugh out of the 'split you into the dork and the nerd' line. That's creative!
However, without dorks and nerds we'd be scratching pictograms in the sand, at best. There certainly wouldn't be any internet to post on (or to search for porn).
Finally, read up on Cazals. Hip-hop has been around awhile and glasses go with it just fine.

Apart from playing magnificently, my eye was caught by the very lovely second clarinet - a pretty gwg with a very nice myopic correction.

She is well spoken and gives a very good interview.

Then again Dee, have you ever looked on a website for pictures of Elijah Wood in glasses? Or Ryan Phillippe? Or Tobey Maguire or Leonardo diCaprio? Sure, you might have more luck with Freddie Prinze jr, but basically fansites are for people who don't like stars in specs, not for connoisseurs like ourselves. (Come to think of it I did have a link to a glasses site for nsync but that's an exception that maybe proves the rule.)
Love and kisses, Jules.

Dee
Weslife are an Irish boy band... only four members now as one of them (Bryan) left in March to spend more time with is family and launch a solo career. I've seen a couple of pix of the lads wearing glasses - I know Kian does actually need them from time to time, but not sure about the others, and Mark from the band had laser surgery a couple of years back...
Dee 16 Jul 2004, 06:45
Hey, I keep reading about Westlife on here? Who are they? Never heard of them, so I looked on the Yahoo search and got 5 young guys, no glasses. I looked through pages and pages (and PAGES!) of pics, still no glasses. Is someone messin' with us? There are a couple of them who are quite hot and would be real lookers in glasses.
Pru 15 Jul 2004, 05:37
I am not 100% sure of it's accuracy, but I read (about a year ago) that Kylie's eyesight is getting steadily worse, she used to wear glasses mainly as a fashion accessory with a slight plus lens, but now she is wearing contacts as she is quite dependant on her glasses, especially for reading. She had a squint as a baby and had an operation to straighten her eye and since then there has always been a slight weakness.
She was also videoed removing her sunglasses and putting on glasses to read the menu.
All of which just adds to her beauty!
Kylie Admirer 10 Jul 2004, 09:01

Hi,
I'm new here and if i've just been reading this thread. i've seen so many links to websites and not a lot of them work? i also read people hae pictures of the sexiest men on the planet (WESTLIFE!) wearing glasses. Since the links don't work, I was wondering if anybody did have some photos, please. Thank You
gwgs 05 Jul 2004, 08:50
The Corrs do wear glasses, at least both of the sisters do.

I am horrible at guessing prescriptions. But I say that she is quite myopic. You'll have a chance to see her on Wednesday at 10PM on MTV.

isn't jessica simpson one of these pathetic "christian" rock no talent put up jobs? or is she the white sheep of the oj simpson family? LOL!

So spec watcher... having seen Jessica in her glasses what would be your estimate of her prescription?
Tod 04 Jul 2004, 10:30
from enlarging the first pic and noticing a slight "cut in" in her right lens, I would have to say she wears a weak minus. -.075 to -1.25. thats my guess
kitten 04 Jul 2004, 09:30
Pics of Liz from girlband Atomic Kitten... bottom one's quite old, but other two are more recent. Not sure what her RX would be tho... any suggestions?

A Kylie admirer 25 Jun 2004, 18:10
Does Kylie Minogue wear contacts and just wears glasses sometimes or is she a part time glasses wearer on the verge of needing them full-time? I've seen a few candid photos of her wearing glasses with a plus prescription and only one of those photos was she actually reading.
Also does anyone know how long she's worn glasses? Any photos, old or new, would be great.
Thanks.

Singer Jessica Simpson has corrected her vision with laser treatment after years of being "legally blind."
The "Irresistible" singer, married to former 98 Degrees star Nick Lachey, recently chose Dr. Glenn Kawesch to carry out the delicate procedure and she's elated with the results.
She says, "It's like being healed by God! I was legally blind, I couldn't see without contacts or glasses. I couldn't see my hand in front of me. I couldn't see the big 'E' on the (eye test) screens."

In the talc wif Thomas it told of its new album "Under my ta Skin", which comes on 24 May inta the shops. Rockiger should be it as the farst, which is also 'cause of the fact that Avril brung itself inta the Songwritin an' production more. Although it stressed expressly that it had always control of its own music. Proudly it showed Thomas their new Tatta at the wrist, which represents the star, which was also the Logo of their last route. It was not cumpletely so proud on its eyeglasses, which normally always remove it wif television appearaintss. fer the radio the 19-Jaehrige had however left its sehhilfe open, it could not not know that weunz photograph her!

Avril`s statement:
Etwas Mühe hatte die zierliche Avril Lavigne, die schwere Studiotür zu öffnen, um mit Moderator Thomas Bug zu plaudern. Zum Glück war sie nicht allein gekommen, sondern hatte Management, Plattenfirma, Bodyguards und Freunde im Schlepptau, so dass sofort jemand zur Stelle war, um ihr die Tür zu öffnen. Ihre Managerin sorgte dann auch dafür, dass Avril niemand zu nahe kam, der nicht zu ihrer Posse gehörte.
Im Talk mit Thomas erzählte sie von ihrem neuen Album "Under my Skin", das am 24. Mai in die Läden kommt. Rockiger soll es sein als das erste, was auch daran liegt, dass Avril sich ins Songwriting und die Produktion mehr eingebracht hat. Obwohl sie ausdrücklich betonte, dass sie schon immer die Kontrolle über ihre eigene Musik hatte. Stolz zeigte sie Thomas ihr neues Tatto am Handgelenk, das den Stern darstellt, der auch das Logo ihrer letzten Tour war. Nicht ganz so stolz war sie auf ihre Brille, die sie bei Fernsehauftritten normalerweise immer abnimmt. Fürs Radio hatte die 19-Jährige ihre Sehhilfe aber aufgelassen, sie konnte ja nicht wissen, dass wir sie fotografieren!

Argh, I hate text only.....messes up my links, here's the correct link:
http://www.geocities.com/electra_the_migfetish_lady/cutin.html
Electra 27 Apr 2004, 09:40
I think it's just a disagreement of the term "cut-in". Normally I use it differently, referring to how minus lenses pull the edge of the face further in(see my site http://www.geocities.com/electra_the_migfetish_lady/cutin.html"), but as these aren't exactly technical terms, there's nothing to say who's right! Best to just explain futher, what I can see through the right lens is a portion of background, in ultra-sharp focus, where you'd expect to see hair. But I see not cu-in of the face edge at all, if anything, it's out rather than in. Quite odd really, and this sort of distortion has baffled me before. It's a comparatively strong lens, for sure, but I'd be inclined to say plus. Open to the views of others.
Ree 27 Apr 2004, 09:33
Yes, there is a small amount of cut in. Not much anyway, you can see it if you closeup on the face.
SZ6 27 Apr 2004, 08:51
Me neither.
Curt 27 Apr 2004, 08:44

Eddy 25 Apr 2004, 00:45
In fact of all places it came off one of the Western China provincial satellites which goes to show how much the world's chamged in the past 40 years or so (Memo: stop being a geriatric bore, Eddy). I checked the program but no spiel. If it comes back on again I'll try to get some details. Should be on some website under Nora in Asia or somesuch.

Eddy - Where (satellite, channel,...) did you see the Nora video? I'd love to see her in glasses
Eddy 24 Apr 2004, 16:07
Eddy was sitting in his study quietly but goggle-eyedly (Does this word exist??) watching a WHOLE HOUR of Nora Jones when Lady E irrupted (and erupted). "What the f@#* are you doing camped there in that bloody cave ("cave"? I'd always seen it as a small but significant home of higher learning, my own little Athenaeum) watching that harlot". And much more in the same vein. "You pathetic old man, if I'd known that she was wearing frigging glasses I wouldn't even have considered agreeing to you watching". Crash, as a small but emotionally important memento of a million made ricocheted off the wall. "And I've told you a million times you'll wank yourself to death one day". I apologise to the more delicately sensible of our little community (and God knows but I'm one of them) for having to put down in writing these unfortunate obscenities but I consider it in the interests of science that Lady E in full flight should be properly recorded for posterity.
But, dear friends, it was worth every decibel, every bruise, every broken tchotchke of it. She was simply stunning. An intimate concert in (I think) Tokyo. Singing all those songs she's known for. No glasses while on the piano, just that lovely little arse straining against her jeans.
But then, in between songs, she was interviewed in flagrante spectaculo. We've all seen occasional bespectacled pics on the web but nothing could prepare us for the full widescreen (Eddy's just gone digital) reality. Her little black plastics were almost cats eyes - oh swoon all of you who remember the 50s - and there was some SERIOUS Rx. Even though they were hi-index the stuff at the sides was teeny weeny.
Actually I suspect Lady E's Sapphic side was slightly aroused by her because after she calmed down (does she ever?) she insisted on watching the rest and has been unusually solicitous ever since.
Highly recommended when it comes to a satellite near you.

To use that link, you need to install the emule client software. Hint: I had to open up a couple of ports in the firewall. Check the FAQ at the emule site for which ports to use. You'll need a full-time internet connection, preferably fast, although I suspect it could work with dial-up if you are incredibly patient and have unlimited monthly hours.

Tod and Luci, give me a break. I did not put her in a firing line, nor had a go at her...I mearly stated the obvious (to the OO) and I have the right to be disappointed. I made no reference to her about cancer either. I'm happy that she is a survivor. I am upset at the shows host for bringing it up with her though. But she was OK with it anyway.
Filthy McNasty 18 Apr 2004, 18:44

Tod 18 Apr 2004, 18:17
Does anyone remember the ZZ Top vedio of 'She's got legs" from 20 years ago. Where the girl in the shoe store has glasses and takes them off because she feels tired. Some fat lady steals them and hides them on her but first looks through the lenses to check out the Rx. Later a guy finds her glasses and returns them to her and the two off together. They were real Rx glasses too. I would say about -2.50.
Tod 18 Apr 2004, 17:54
Yes give Anastacia a break!
Anyone have any photos of Fiona Apple in her glasses?
luci 18 Apr 2004, 17:49
Maybe Anastasia can just see better with contacts! Give her a break. She just had cancer.
Daffy 18 Apr 2004, 15:50
I was deeply disappointed last night. Here in the land of Oz (Australia) we had a TV awards show. Anastacia was a guest appearance. Wouldn't you know it, she was wearing plano tinted glasses. While they looked awesome on her, it was upsetting to see another GWG succumb to contacts (Hope she didn't get lasik done).

Look, I'm not trying to start some war of words here but I have a subscription to the magazine and I double checked before I posted the first time. If Simpson did indeed make the statement, the reporter didn't put it in quotes. And although I don't think Simpson is as air-headed as she comes across on-screen, the phrase "postitively nerdy" doesn't sound like her and has more a journalistic ring to it.
12 Apr 2004, 05:32
she was quoted here as saying it. how would some reporter know about her glasses prescription if she herself didn't mention it?
Kix 11 Apr 2004, 22:07
For the record, Jessica Simpson doesn't proclaim herself to have a "positively nerdy eyeglass prescription" in the April issue of Allure---the reporter, Alexandra Jacobs makes that observation. I'm not exactly a Jessica Simpson fan but I don't think it's fair when celebs get bashed for things they didn't even say.
Tod 11 Apr 2004, 21:20
I hate these self serving statements from air head celebs like Jessica Simpson.
Wearing and needing glasses does not make you a nerd. Being a nerd makes you a nerd. There are plenty of nerds walking around with 20/20 vision who have never sat behind a phoropter.

Filthy McNasty 08 Apr 2004, 20:23
Nelly has a lyric that almost always catches me by surprise. She sings, "It's not that my glass is empty, but...". What I invariably hear is, "It's not that my glasses...", then I have to correct my perception to fit with the rest of the line.
She whould go in glasses more often. She's moderately cute without them, utterly lickable with them.

I've heard that Kylie Minogue wears glasses for reading. Does anyone know where I can see photos of her wearing glasses? Also any further information would be great e.g.How long she's had glasses, what her prescription is. The only picture I've seen of her in glasses is on the front cover of one of her albums a few years ago. I think those glasses might have been props, but it's difficult to tell as it's a small picture.

Fan of Anastacia 26 Mar 2004, 06:27
There is nothing wrong about her wearing contact lenses for now. She is stil a GWG. Almost all eyeglass wearers have CL and wear them from time to time, myself included. Don't worry, this gal is an OO so she will show up in glasses sooner or later and what's great is she's so willing to talk about her lens wearing and eyesight as well as her other health problems. It is so refreshing to have a celeb be so open and honest. You Go Girl!
Guest 26 Mar 2004, 02:03
In UK magazine interview with Anastacia, the following section explains the situation :
Q. You're not wearing your trademark glasses anymore. Have you had an image change ?
A. Not really. I just wanted contacts. The only reason I never took the glasses off before is because I couldn't see !! I also wanted to hold onto my glasses because they were who I was before I had my record deal, so it's kind of wild for me now I have contacts. I'm not that great at them and there's still a lot of drama and pokes in the eye.
I agree with previous post - whilst not unattract, she does look bland without her glasses.
gwgs 26 Mar 2004, 00:30
I hardly think wearing contact lenses instead of glasses is going to bring her success and make record shops change their minds and stock her records.
Kokopelli 25 Mar 2004, 21:15
I read in a Dutch tv magazine that she's got contacts. She said it was the first time she saw herself without glasses.
I'm not a fan of er music at all, but think it's a shame if got rid of the glasses. She looks kinda bland without them I think.
minic 25 Mar 2004, 20:29
Myopicmax, I am big Anastacia fan and I get updates from her web site and sometimes I go to read message board and it was disappointing seeing her without glasses on her latest pictures and there was some negative feedback on that also, but no explanation. I got from friend also her naked picture from Playboy with no glasses. I got couple of her DVD's, one was from Las Vegas, Divas that is my favorite and The video collection and every song she would change at least twice, even three times different glasses, some close shots at her glasses alone, when she slowly put them on, I always thought her prescription was mild, but it really isn't, just in the begining there is close out on her lenses and they appear to be on the stronger side. During bonus materials her producer even said that no matter what kind of problems they got into during filming for Anastacia only thing what always mattered was her glasses. But he understood because that is her trademark. Really great DVD, too bad that here in U.S.A. none of the music stores would carry her stuff and only place to get it is from her web site. Maybe that is why she is changing her image in order to get more exposure in U.S. market. That would be really sad, I love her voice and songs, but Anastacia without glasses???
Tod 16 Mar 2004, 12:05
yes Myopicmax, in the 1969 film doctumentry "Woodstock" there is a gorgous GWG and she is wearing three piece rimless glasses.
Eddy 16 Mar 2004, 12:04
Not only do I think it's a fake but also I think I know whodunit. But it's OK.

Thanks for the info.
Karl 16 Mar 2004, 06:01
I read somewhere that Mariah has a lazy eye and after studying pics of her I think she has. That would explain the thicker lens.
gwgs 16 Mar 2004, 02:05
Wow, Mariah looks hot in that pic. WOWSA
Definitely passes the Boner Test hey Filthy????
Why do you think they're too frumpy? She wears sunglasses all the time that are a lot bigger than that.
How can you tell its fake? Her left lense looks stronger than her right lense and there is therefore one reason to suggest it's not a fake
myopicmax 15 Mar 2004, 22:15
saw the end of what I gather is the new single for Anastacia there were some shots with no glasses. Anyone know the story there. On other note has anyone seen the movie Woodstock ? in the Santana number there is a wonderful GWG she's right into the music she must of taken the good acid.
Filthy McNasty 15 Mar 2004, 19:11
I agree it's fake - they're way too frumpy on her. She'd have something smaller and more fashionable.
BTW, Mariah, if I'm wrong, you can prove it by wearing those glasses next time we have torrid steamy sex, okay?
No?
Ah, well, for what it cost, it was worth a try.
Curt 15 Mar 2004, 12:02
Andy: Looks to me like another very well done Mariah Carey fake. I have heard that she wears specs, but with a little detective work, I'll bet you can find that same picture on the Internet somewhere without the glasses. That's a pretty good fake, however...

I now appreciate why Kylie wears her glasses for more than just reading. I took a few minutes to get used to focussing on distances but after that everything was perfect. My distance vision is possibly slightly better with my glasses, but definately not worse. I liked the feeling of seeing everything through my +2 lenses, so I think I will carry on with full-time wearing.
Does anyone have any more pics of Kylie in her glasses?

GwGs 15 Feb 2004, 00:22
Lovely photos Curt, i especially like the penultimate one.
I've seen a couple more of her with glasses - one of which she is wearing small rectangular frames with possibly +3 lenses in, this shot is taken out and about somewhere and she is with Gwyneth Paltrow.
The media seem to make a big thing of it when a celeb is first seen with spex;
Quite a few papers ran front page stories when Nicole Kidman first wore glasses out - e.g. The Daily Mail had 1/2 a page photo of Nicole and a headline saying "Nicole looks spec-tacular" or words to that effect.
A few other papers did a story when Gillian Anderson was first seeing wearing spex saying "Spexy".
What is the big drama with celebs wearing glasses? They've been wearing them for years!
Karen 14 Feb 2004, 08:05
x-pert
Is your posting in reply to mine? If it is do you think she needs glasses/contacts all the time but usually wears contacts. She does seem to wear her glasses "out and about" in public as a full-time wearer would. Is +2 a common prescription for full-time wear?
Curt 13 Feb 2004, 12:33

Call it up this way and you can save it without having to download everything else on the page, save the pic you want, then delete it.

Thanks Kisal for that link to several of my favorite female singers wearing glasses.
Hint to newbies: The pictures on that website can't be lifted simply by right clicking on them. But there is still a way of getting them. Simply save the entire page to your desktop (under File menu, choose Save As...), and after it gets done saving them, just open the new folder on the desktop and take out all the pictures you want. Then you can delete the saved page and you've still got its pictures.

Maverick 17 Dec 2003, 00:54
There are a lot of the 'out shopping' type pics of Rachel Stevens on Rex Features where you can see she is wearing glasses, so it seems she needs full time correction.
Unfortunately the fact that you can now only get the thumbnails on this site makes it frustrating.

Result! It was a question of joining from scratch rather than trying to cut any corners.
Nice pix Lizzi / Maverick. In the HLUK2002 3 folder, photo 382 shows a bit of cut-in at the edges of the lenses, so I'd agree with Maverick about the prescription. Say minus 2.5 or maybe 3?
Oscar 06 Dec 2003, 10:32
Thanks Maverick - I'll have another go. I don't normally have any problem with these things.
Maverick 06 Dec 2003, 09:35
Not sure what is going wrong for you on those Cat Deeley pics on the Yahoo Groups site Oscar. I joined it, (its a public site so access is pretty instantaneous) and have had no problem. Worth persevering as they are a nice group of screen caps taken, apparently, during the two weeks before her Lasik when she could'nt wear her contacts.
Difficult to assess her prescription but from some evidence of cut in, and general appearance of the lenses I'd say something in the -2 to -3 range.
Oscar 06 Dec 2003, 09:14
Sorry - that link won't work on my computer. Still comes up with that wretched yahoo group-error message.
Lizzi, you obviously have more luck with this, but is that after correcting "gropus" and "grops" in the URL? And can anyone post a link which is more likely to work?

Yes - specially as it referred to an earlier posted link in this section! What's more that's one that doesn't work...though it's a Yahoo problem we've probably all had with one site or another.

Confusing...that was a reply to the question which Lizzi posted in the Vision training thread.
Oscar 04 Dec 2003, 11:12
easier said than done Lizzi. First you sign up to that group (no problem), then it comes up with an error message saying Group-Check or something like that. Any idea if that photo is also somewhere more accessible?

There were two or three Britany pics a few months ago on a sparklygirls.com site. Pics showed Britany wearing what appeared to be about +2 specs. The pics were rather clear, and seemed to be taken somewhere during a shopping trip.
GwGs 27 Nov 2003, 03:58
I have seen a couple of photos from side on where you can admire the thickness of the lenses and you can also see through the lenses and they look very much like prescription.

kelly clarkson's prescription seems to be around -10 roughly, i think. wow! its very nice to see such a beautiful girl need glasses so badly
Guest 21 Nov 2003, 11:26
ANON I think Kylie has a mild plus prescription judging by the photos. She might wear them for distances and not just for reading. Maybe she'll go full time eventually. There aren't many photos of Kylie wearing glasses and I think those 2 are probably the best.

Filthy McNasty 20 Oct 2003, 21:26
The movie is "Dancer in the Dark". The glasses appear to be a real Rx, but much lower than would warrant the thicknes. They're props, made unnaturally thick. Still, she's cute, in a kind of starving-to-death way.
Daffy 20 Oct 2003, 20:51
Well I don't know if I can class her as a musician or actor or neither. I saw a promo on TV last night of a musical (a movies with lots of singing/songs) featuring "BJORK". It looked really weird. But, I saw some shots in the promo where she was wearing black plastic rimmed glasses that looked quite thick. The screen shot was real quick so I don't know if they are real or fake. There was considerable edge thicknes as well, but they can do that with no Rx.
If anyone knows the name of the movie/musical and/or seen it, I'd be interested to know.

Mac 08 Oct 2003, 17:33
Tod,
I recall seeing a website reference here (or perhaps elsewhere) about three months ago. There were 2 or 3 reasonably decent photos showing J.Lo with specs. The Rx looked to be in the -2 to -3 range. The site reference may still be in the ES Thread Archives.
Tod 08 Oct 2003, 16:23
I once heard J-Lo in an interview when asked she had "angel eyes" refering to her movie of that name, she said, "no I don't. I am suppose to wear glasses". Does anyone have any idea of her Rx?

Julian 14 Sep 2003, 06:54
From the web on Eminem+glasses:
1. Glasses: He wears glasses for things up close (long-sighted) and he looks so cute wearing them!
2. Still, there's no escaping that Eminem has matured, right down to the wire-rimmed glasses he's taken to wearing.

From London's "Metro" newspaper on Thursday just gone....
"Don't be fooled into thinking Eminem's specs are just a fad - he needs them. A source said: 'He is shortsighted but tells people his glasses are just a fashion statement.'"
I'm sure there are people here who could verify.

Liz from UK pop act Atomic Kitten quite often wears glasses with what seems to be a minus prescription in them.
She was on tv this evening (in UK) on a current affairs programme called "Real Story with Fiona Bruce". Liz wasn't singing, she was a reportor on an article about old peoples care home being closed down. She wore her glasses for the whole report. Her glasses were narrow rimless rectangles. They looked great on her. She's quite pretty too.

Did anyone see the 'sea of pluses' at the Music Hall of Fame show on Bravo? Notable was Phil Collins, with lots of light reflection below the glasses, as pluses tend to do in bright light. Van Morrison sported some cool-dude specs....all that was missing were Gere and K.Russell!
As usual, the women had to hide their need for correction!
Julian 09 Jul 2003, 04:43
Yes. For Mac users, the thing to do is click and hold on a thumbnail and when the menu appears, select 'Open page in a new window' The thumbnail will appear with its URL. Replace 'thumbnails' with 'previews' and Robert's your father's brother!
Love and kisses, Jules.
GwGs 09 Jul 2003, 01:40
What you have to do to make it work is;
search for whoever you want @ http://www.rexfeatures.com
Then right click on a thumbnail, go to "properties", highlight this and press CTRL + C to copy this, paste it into the address bar by pressing CTRL + V
When the thumbnail appears, replace the word "THUMBS" with the word "PREVIEWS"
Voila...

Phil - You CAN make pix on rex features bigger without paying... right click on the pic you want and go down to properties. Copy and paste the URL into the address bar and change the word THUMBS to PREVIEWS and press enter. The picture should then come up bigger.

Good call Leon - I'd forgotten all about her. I remember F.A.'s first single - she looked fantastic! I even saw her once in the street, outside a record store where she was doing a signing. The record company got her to wear contacts for F.A.'s second video, but she continued to wear them after that. On the cover of one of her solo albums there is a great picture of her in some hornrims - quite think too. Ahhh.

Female lead singer Eddi Reader (Fairground Attraction) used to wear cool minus specs in the 80's!

Loonyettes 08 Jun 2003, 13:46
Remember all of you in the UK - there's a Morrissey documentary on Channel 4 tonight at 11.15PM. He was one of the best glasses wearer of the 1980s - great national health specs followed by great horn rims. He had a good, high minus prescription, as did Lloyd Cole, who also wore NHS glasses. Back in those days, he was an example to all of us who had to wear NHS specs.
Another neglected glasses wearing pioneer at a time when glasses were very unpopular was David Sylvian. Check out the cover of Japan's album *Tin Drum* for proof. Those are great specs. Paddy Mcaloon of Prefab Sprout wore some great big framed thick minus glasses in the early days of Prefab Sprout, as I recall. Those were horrible times ...
Can anyone remember any good female glasses wearers from the world of pop in the 1980s? I remember an interview where Alison Moyet said the first thing she did in the morning was put on her glasses, but never saw any pictures of her in them.

Actually, the younger teen girls probably appreciate him, but when I talk about him to my friends, I get a sidelong glance! Anyway, check'm out and click on the pics for the larger size!

Re: the Spice Girls. No that it's particularly important, but I have a slightly different recollection ...
Scary Spice started wearing her brown rectangular glasses whilst the Spice Girls were still together. If I remember rightly, she debuted them on the Brit Awards. It was a great moment.
I remember Posh Spice's lenses being pretty thin ...
Anyone remember the auditions for that band Hearsay - so many of the young women wore glasses!

All the Spice Girls do (did?) wear glasses;
Posh wore rectangular silver rimmed frames or heavy black rimmed frames, they both looked like they had some serious lenses in them.
Sporty wore some heavy black rectangular frames but only started wearing them after the Spice Girls split up and wears them quite a lot now.
Scary wore again wore the same rectangular frames but wore them a lot
Ginger Spice i've seen wearing some silver rimmed large round frames and some silver rimmed oval ones as well as some rectangular half rimless frames in one of her music videos!

they are on the bombastic page but there are extra ones on the other website. and some of them are large high resolution photos where you are more likely to spot any rx. they are in the 'other photos' section, and then in the 2003 gallery. they are the first two galleries inside that one.

and these are the glasses she was wearing on the way into the opticians. they definately look real. -2 ish is my guess

john. i agree also with britney looking very out of focus in those pictures when she takes off her glasses. especially on this picture
john 12 Apr 2003, 18:52
i have just seen those britney pics and i agree with '-12's', she does look very out of focus. she is actually in an opticians at the time. it mentioned it at the bottom of one of the photos. thats why some of the picutures appear to have no rx. the ones where she is outside of the shop are obviously her real glasses and seem to have a reasonable minus lens in them. very nice to see. especially her eyes without the glasses. she looks very vulnerable. anyone else have an opinion on her rx and whether she seems to struggle without the glasses?

those britney photos are great. they look around -1 to -2 ish to me. nothing major. she does however look very out of focus in the photos in that galery without the glasses. she has that distant look that a nearsighted person tends to have without correction. thats my opinion anyway. any thoughts?

www.BombasticBritney.com everyone should check this out!!!!!!!! look at the britney spears gallery called something like 'melrose avenue la 5th of march'. great up close britney glasses shots. picture 37 seems to show some major indentation of her face through her right lens meaning she is possibly around -3 or -4 ish. not sure though. please let me know what you think of her prescription from these pics. you have to register to view the pictures but it takes all of 1 minute and its free. they are amazing!!!

Interview with Anastacia taken from:
http://www.efanguide.com/~anastacia/interviews-radioundercover.html
"PC> You've met Elton John?
A> Yeah, Elton John reviewed my album in a magazine called Interview,
and in the process was very taken by me as an artist, so he...they set up a meeting for him and I. It was so weird for me to be able to go "Oh my god I'm going to meet Elton!". I listened to his albums as a kid and I'm wearing glasses because he did! The minute I had to wear prescription I was like "COOL! I can wear glasses, this is the most awesome thing in the world! I'm going to get a bunch of colours!" So it was all due to the fact that he used to wear glasses and be so free spirited about it that I had to wear glasses at such a young age. I was like "Okay, that's probably cool!" and I've been wearing them ever since, but we had a great meeting, we talked about possibly working together in the future and I'm still such a great fan of his,he's such a great admirer of music and always has been, and he's been such a great inspiration to a lot of people."

Lisa's prescription answered by herself.
bpcleary
Q: So, what's the prescription on those bad boys? Are we talking legally blind? Would you know a loved one past 5 feet? Does squinting really help myopics or is it just an endearing way to tell us sighted people you have no idea what we're showing you?
A: Squinting does help to a certain extent. Also, making a tiny triangle- 1mm x 1mm with your fingers and looking through it also helps (seriously). My prescription is -4.75 +0.50 x 8 in my right eye, and -5.75 + 0.50 x 24 in my left..
Stefan 04 Feb 2003, 14:28
http://www.lisaloeb.com - Lisa Loeb has a new album out, and her specs feature quite prominently on the cover shot. Also, on the fan questions page of her homepage, somebody asked her what her prescription is - interesting!

so okay, only one more time and then I promise this discussion will stop, honestly...
"god punishing her for wearing glasses"-
no, you must have understood me wrong,
I just meant that the question, why exactly one of the few singers wearing spex had to get breast cancer. I just meant that doesn't matter at all. It was just irony that I wrote this thing with god... okay, I see that you understood me wrong and now I'd say:
okay, just forget about it, I'm sorry if I offended someone, I hope now you understand what I wanted to say (just that the comment wasn't fitting)
So finally: back to the regular topic...
okay... ;-)

minic 30 Jan 2003, 21:07
Seems to me,that you go little bit over board with your reaction to my comment and misrepresenting what it meant. There was absolutely no intension of making any connection between weak eyes, fetishism or anything else and Anastacia's cancer. I can't even think, how anyone can make such stupid assumption. I feel very sorry, that it happened to her and hope for her full recovery, but not just because she wears glasses. I know she has a lot of fans here on ES and I happened to be one of them, reading back on some previous comments seems like not many comments on her performance, but more on her picture cover on CD and her glasses. But that is part of her personality which she apparently enjoyes. Few months ago I've read interview with her and she said, that she never got much exposure here in U.S.A, because she never fit american stereotype with glasses she wears and that she owns large collection of them. I am sure she could choose lenses or some other way to perform without glasses, but she didn't and there is a lot of fans patriculary here on ES admiring her for that. And I just don't see how anyone can deny it and not feel sad, that this person just got diagnosed with this terrible disease.I just don't see any connection between God punishing her for wearing glasses or whatever you are trying to say. Sorry.

Curt: I did not call anyone an idiot, and I did not attack anyone. But this is discourse what we are doing here and it is good that we can tell each other our opinion when we think that a COMMENT was not good and that's what I did. And I guess that's okay, isn't it?
Cause our preference for ladies with specs does not blur our sense for reality, but this particular sentence was just unneccesary. Please do not delete this one, and please just think about it, okay?
Without calling anyone an idiot,

Curt 30 Jan 2003, 05:20
hope....: I think Wurm deleted your post because you were attacking another poster, not because it was the truth. I agree with Wurm - this is a forum for discussing glasses. If you do not agree with someone elses post, that's fine. But it does not give you the right to call them an idiot, or attack them personally.

hope you read it 29 Jan 2003, 16:35
okay, my opinion was being censored and my entry was deleted, probably because I was telling the truth and used a four-letter word but I would like to say it once again, and this time without those words: the sentence minic wrote,
Out of all the celebrities out there the one making us GWG lovers happy...???
concerning Anastacia's breast cancer is unnecessary, unseriously and it just does not fit. Blame god for the fact that he out of all those women he had to take a glasses-wearer for giving breast-cancer... I mean this is DUMB, guys I am sorry, it does not matter if she's the saint of Latex-lovers, a foot fetish queen or a myope lady, any comment like this is just not fitting !
Hope this message won't be deleted this time, because this is my opinion, even though I am a glasses lover too and wouldn't otherwise visit this page, but this goes too far and this is dumb, exaggerated, etc.

Reading some magazines over the Internet last week I noticed article in one of European papers which left me particulary sad. It said that Anastacia ( age 29 )was diagnosed with breast cancer and is scheduled for surgery and chemoterapy. Out of all the celebrities out there the one making us GWG lovers happy...??? Hope she will make it !!!

Does Joey Fatone of NSYNC wear glasses? I know JC Justin and Chris do and Lance doesn't but what about Joey
Minus Dude (Lusts Lance) 16 Jan 2003, 10:09
for Jamie:
I sure wish I did have good photos of Lance Bass in glasses. I recently stumbled onto the 'nsync glasses (pretty boys) site mentioned below & wasn't convinced Lance was wearing prescription glasses in any photos. Appears he's only one of the group with potentially 20/20 vision. But I'm still hoping...
If you enjoy imagining Lance in glasses, there are some slash stories that make mention of Lance wearing glasses. One in particular (which admittedly I don't quite get) involves Chris' reaction to Lance getting new glasses. Here's the website:
http://railwayshoes.net/steph/glasses.html
Other fiction referencing Lance in glasses can be found via searches with the terms: Lance glasses. You might throw in another 'nsyncer's name to weed out Lance Armstrong pages & be prepared to wade through stories which reference the glasses one drinks out of.
JC was sporting glasses at the awards show televised Monday evening. Watching a recap on E! news live Tuesday, his hat & hair made it a little hard to get a good look at him.

I cant believe that fans of Anastacia haven't mentioned her CD "You'll never be alone".
The fourth track is a video of the single & starts with a close-up of her slowly putting on her glasses. You can play it in reverse so she is taking them off too. Great fun & great value at Ģ1:99 from Woollies.

http://www.jessicaunlimited.com/news/headlines/066.html
Vidge 25 Dec 2002, 14:44
One of my favorite GWG is Anastacia NewKirk. She must always wear glasses to correct her myopia and astigmatism. Eyeglasses which she is very proud to wear by the way. When some talent agent jerk told her to get contacts, she told him: "why don't you get them". She also suffers from Crohn's disease which affects the intestinal tract and is why she has that surgical scar on her abdomin, of which she is also not ashamed of ether and doesn't visibly try to hide. She is one spirited lady and a damn good singer.

Avril Lavigne is pretty hot in glasses. Does anyone know what sort of prescription she's got? I am fairly sure that she needs them full time and wears contacts sometimes as there is a school year-book photo of her wearing glasses.

And as far as I know she never wore specs when performing.

John and Cynthia met while in art school because they were in a class where for some reason the students were testing eachother's eyes. they were paired together, and "clicked" when they both found out that both of them were equally very nearsighted! oo love story. would make a good fiction story if we added details...
Bert 13 Dec 2002, 10:39
Another favourite GWG from this period is John Lennon's first wife Cynthia. She wore and wears glasses and I recollect used to wear sunglasses, no doubt prescription sunglasses, quite a common way of hiding poor eyesight but one that (sadly in my view) seems not to be much used by GWGs these days.
I expect there are photos of Cynthia Lennon on the web.
Stefan 13 Dec 2002, 07:49
Oscar - I do remember browsing through Sandie Shaw's autobiography in a bookshop, and there was something about her being very nearsighted (I don't think it said 'extremely' - and even extreme's seem to've become relative these days). There was something about how she couldn't see a thing when she was performing without her glasses on at the beginning of her career and about what a wonderful thing contacts were when she got them, even though the first pairs were very cumbersome compared to today - something like that. It was one of those autobiographies with lots of photos in the middle of the book, but I don't think that there was any pic of her in specs... (I've a suspicion if there had been, I'd've bought the book.)
myopicmax 13 Dec 2002, 01:39

Oscar 12 Dec 2002, 17:39
Good question! You may well be right but I'd guess a little less than that - I think early plastic lenses were particularly thick (and I assume these are plastic), especially in enormous frames. If they're glass then they might well be at least -8. Someone must be good at this - I always find it hard to judge with huge frames. Is there anything out there about Sandie being extremely myopic? Must have a look...anyway, great picture!
Stefan 12 Dec 2002, 16:01
Wonderful Sandie Shaw pic, thank you very much! The prescription of her right eye seems slightly easier to guess maybe - a -7 or -8, I would think. Would you think less than that, Oscar?
Oscar 12 Dec 2002, 12:50
Fantastic pic of Sandie Shaw!! Looks like a minus prescription which appears huge because of the frames but actually isn't that strong? Do you guys agree?
A pic of Dusty as a member of her school hockey team, wearing glasses, would be awesome for lots of reasons...I must look for that book! (can you remember the author?)
Maverick 12 Dec 2002, 12:06
Hey, wonderful pic of Sandie Shaw Myhopeinhere.
I remember when I was a kid back in the 60's keeping a scrap book of GWG's and having a nice pic of Sandie in black plastic octagonal frames. I also recall a pic of Dusty I had then of her wearing black plastic frames. What with her eye makeup and hair style it was impossible to judge her prescription though I recall.Sadly Ive long lost that scrap book !
I have recently browsed through a biog of Dusty (which I think is widely available) it contains a pic of her with her secondary school hockey team I think where she is wearing her glasses. I think there is some reference in the text about her glasses as well but I'm not 100% sure.

you will find it virtual impossible to find it unless you can find the program, and then convert the photos of video they weren't great photos. I don't have the equipment or nouse to do. Also Sandie Shaw was mentioned with the same bad eyesight. there are a few of her around on the web very strong minus.

myopicmax 11 Dec 2002, 18:54
Oscar, As you have descibed, rimless 50's style. It was brought up constantly how short sighted she was. When she changed her name from Mary O'Brien to Dusty Springfield she lost her old self and I guess glasses where with the old self, There was no more pictures from that point. Lets face it it's still hard to keep a glamourous image at this time. But I think that perception is changing in the last few years thanks to Eye Scene and related sites.

Now that's very interesting. There's quite a lot of mention of Dusty being extremely short-sighted on the web but no pictures of her as a gwg. But sometimes there is mention of early photos showing her in National Health glasses.
Does anyone know if any are available on the web? And myopicmax, what did her glasses look like that you saw on the tv programme?
myopicmax 11 Dec 2002, 02:20
Just saw a program on Dusty Springfield, big emphasis how short sighted she was, there was one scene where she described how she couldn't see the makeup on her eyes in the mirror. There was pictures of her in glasses at high school, but after that she didn't wear them again.

I've recently been seeing, of all people, Eminem wearing specs in various magazine photos (either People or US magazines). They're metal-framed and worn to public apperances. Interesting that a 'bad-boy rapper' would be so willing to wear them in public (since it seems quite a contrast to the image), but then again, he does like trying to catch people off guard.

Last poster, please do tell us about French singers wearing glasses on stage. Could prove interesting!
04 Dec 2002, 19:41
Yes, having recently come from Europe, they smoke far more than Americans. This is largely because tobacco is so heavily taxed and therefore expensive in America. Plus, the end of any disscussion about cigs in America is always sue the tobacco companies- no one wants to take responsibility for their own choices. But on a different note, I saw the greatest French Opera and at least 5 of the preformers wore glasses in the story on stage. Couldn't tell if they were real or plano though.

...and as a P.S. I should also mention where the second-most-lovely gwgs are to be found - Italy. The smoking percentage there is (if anything) even higher than in France.
So we have the countries of Verlaine, Debussy, Monet and of Verdi, Dante and Michelangelo. Not exactly uncivilized backwaters then...and tolerant too...
After that I need to find a nice gwg with a lit cigarette.
Oscar 04 Dec 2002, 09:28
Ah. We have a nice Atlantic rift opening up here. Even though cigarettes were spotted in the US until a few years ago when tobacco-fascism became the order of the day - and they are, metaphorically, grown in Virginia (USA), most Europeans have a very much more tolerant view of smoking. In my view the most beautiful girls in the world are French. And in Paris at least about 95% of them smoke like chimneys. Is there any problem with that? For me (n.b.): not a bit of it. They look fab, especially the large number of them who also wear glasses (usually low minus - but specs are quite trendy there at the moment). The combination of the two is - I think - wonderful if done with style and grace.
So...could I suggest we keep off the subject of smoking. It's liable to open up a nasty transatlantic slanging match. I happen to think the European view of this is sane, tolerant and open-minded. But almost any American (barring the tiny handful who presumably now meet in secret to open a packet of Marlboro lights) is presumably going to take a completely different view. Let's not argue over this since there is one thing we're all agreed about (and that's to do with glasses rather than cigarettes)!!

FANATIC 27 Nov 2002, 14:54
what is with rexfeatures.com?? is can't look the fotos in bigger size!! who can help me?
Teah 23 Nov 2002, 07:29
while not relating to musicians exactly this does relate to music. for all you oo's out there i suggest you download a song called jackie o by john mellencamp. glasses are an important part of the girl in the song.(who is not jackie o by the way) my only question now is....what about the music video to go along?
Curt 22 Nov 2002, 12:01
Teah: What I do (each morning) is just go to Rex Features and type in the word "spectacles". You know those Brits - they speak the same language that we do in the US, but with some subtle variations. I've tried searching on there for "glasses" and only found champagne glasses! :-) Spectacles yields many, many pictures, however.
teah 22 Nov 2002, 11:10
curt: do you have the link to the michael jackson photo on rex features? i'm sure plenty of people would be interested in seeing him with glasses.
thanks.
The OGL 22 Nov 2002, 07:40
Re Beyonce Knowles: 20/20 mag (a trade journal) has a monthly page with celebs in spex featured, unfortunately most of them are plano sun. In the Sept. issue there's a half thumbnail of her with the caption "...models Valentino 5211S from Safilo on the pages of "Movieline" magazine"... It's a large goggle/shield type frame, only the left side of her face is show in the thumbnail, they're probably plano.
Curt 22 Nov 2002, 06:24
It looks like presbyopia has even reached the "King of Pop". Rex Features has a couple photos today of Michael Jackson slipping on a pair of reading glasses before speaking at what looks like a pulpit. He is freaky-enough looking already; maybe glasses will make him look at bit more mainstream (read: normal).

Who is Elton John?
Oscar 20 Nov 2002, 17:03
Oh yes, I remember. Anyone going to hear the French Radio orchestra in Carnegie Hall, New York, at the end of this week should keep an eye open for several of the players: a couple of truly delectable gwgs among the violinists, and the celesta player wears glasses sometimes and looks marvellous in them, as she also has particuarly beautiful silky brown hair.
Oscar 20 Nov 2002, 17:00
Alan - you take the words out of my mouth. US and GB style rules are different on the placing of punctuation within quotation marks. It would only happen in GB style if the question mark was part of the quotation.
Could somebody remind me what this thread is meant to be about...
Alan 20 Nov 2002, 15:02
I believe in Britain, the question mark is usually placed outside the quotation marks, whereas in the US, teachers generally teach that any punctuation goes *inside* the quotation marks. Outside makes a lot more sense to me, but unfortunately, I don't believe any of you have much ground to argue upon, as this site is international.
But we seem to have gotten on one of those threads where people are squawking at one another instead of posting on-topic. That's probably a good thing to avoid, as *no-one* likes reading it.
Right, so how about that Elton John character?
MVIII 20 Nov 2002, 12:12
OGL: Thank you so much for helping me with my plot. Now I know there is at least "one" wannabe still alive.
Portia: Still waiting for those stats. I promise I won't say a word to the New York City police.
Guest: The question mark does go outside the quotations. You are forgiven, however.
Jake: Does one need to resort to using words like "crap"? That word is so vile. It's a shame you feel so much anger.
Doc 19 Nov 2002, 15:41
Yup, I agree. Maybe Guest should go back and finish his basic education
myofan 19 Nov 2002, 14:16
Yup. I don't like illiterate posts or posters, but it's worse when a member of that group "corrects" otherwise correct grammar.
Jake 19 Nov 2002, 12:59
Guest, I hate to correct your correction.
But my "?" does not belong inside quotation marks. I think you need to go back to Grammar School.
The OGL 19 Nov 2002, 07:17
Portia: no apologies necessary, I would love to be one of your chattels, or objects 8<) How do I get an application form to get in line as one of your "wannabes"? ;<)
Guest 19 Nov 2002, 07:06
Oh, Jake. The "?" goes inside the quotation marks.
And, if you're a man stand up for yourself. When a woman talks about men as though they're mere chattel she deserves to be taken to task, either in a friendly way, or perhaps with a more serious tone. My take is that MVIII was being friendly.
Perhaps Portia would care to appologize to her fellow male travelers for speaking about us as though we're mere objects.
MVIII 18 Nov 2002, 06:54
Just a bit of playful prose.
teah 17 Nov 2002, 19:36
absolutely nothing. digressions do sometimes get rather fasinating and very involving. let's try to get back on topic though. still it's nice to keep these boards relaxed and friendly and so let's not impose subject guidelines so strict people can't have fun
Jake 17 Nov 2002, 10:10
What's all this crap have to do with the topic "Musicians"?
MVIII 17 Nov 2002, 07:58
Portia, thank you. Yes, the term I was looking for was Film Noir. It all sounds the same to me. Rule number one. When mimicing a French accent, close your nostrals. A close pin will due, or the use of the thumb and forefinger will suffice.
Unfortunately, this method makes nearly everything sound the same, so when trying to translate the sound into words, something is occasionally lost in the spelling. Which leads me to rule number two.
In French, the sound of "x" is silent. Thus, noi, noix, and noir all sound the same, particularly, as I said, with one's nostrals closed.
Now, if I might ask your help in further developing my plot. How many times have you been married? Also, how many wannabe's were there? And, finally, are any of them still alive?
Respectfully submitted.
MVIII
ps. I too am a fan of IMDB
Portia 16 Nov 2002, 12:15
MVIII, your writing shows promise. I think we have a section of this site whose devotees await eagerly each episode of the newest vision story.
"Film Noir" is the term you were seeking, I believe. My favorite movie site is www.imdb.com
My life is as exciting as I can handle right now, but not material for a screen play.
I found EYESCENE surfing the web a few years ago and have been delighted to exchange ideas with a group of people who have similar interests.
MVIII 16 Nov 2002, 06:45
Portia
If you haven't yet sold the movie rights to your life, I'd be interested. Sounds like a bit of "Film Noix" coming to life on our little site. (How do you spell that?)
Are you a black widow? Count to five, and tell the truth.
We'll call it, "Strangers In The Optomitrists Chair." Not to be confused with "Strangers On A Train."
In the opening scene takes place on a steamy night somewhere down around Miami. Our protagonist has just met Mr. X, and they're taking a walk near the shore. We hear waves breaking in the background. He says, "I really can't see very well." And, she responds with, "Oh, I like a man who can't see too well." Not unlike Kathleen Turner and William Hurt in "Body Heat."
Then, we find the pair back in her office. She's putting a nice pair of -10's on him. They're gold wire frames with CR-39 lenses that have the most gorgeous lenses with polished edges. She's breathing deep all the while.
The phone rings. It's her husband. He's a handsome mature man several years older than our protagonist. Funny, he looks a lot like Richard Crenna.
Gee, I wonder where all this could be leading?

Portia 14 Nov 2002, 20:17
Re: the alarm clock reason for having Lasik. My husband just has a very light German-made alarm clock that he picks up from the nightstand and brings close enough to see.
I realized only after having read several posts about the habits of the highly myopic that he makes a habit of putting his glasses in the same place, in a special case (that his mother made with his initials in needlepoint!)so that he can be assured of finding them again in the morning. He's a -9 -10 or so. If he only knew how much the glasses were part of the attraction!

for all you guys who think paul mccartney was cute when he was young i have some absolutely wonderful pictures of him wearing glasses. most of them are thick rimmed black ones. wow. unfortuatly i don't remember the website i got them from but they're on my hard drive. if anyone wants to see them, i'll be more than happy to email them to you!
teah
Alan 14 Nov 2002, 05:55
Drew Carey had lasik, so he wears glasses on his shows still (as they are his trademark), but I guess he doesn't wear them otherwise. Sounds like a whole dumb plan to me, but maybe he has his reasons for wanting lasik.
"Monovision" is correcting one eye for distance and one eye for seeing up-close. Neither eye can see clearly at all distances, but if the person can suppress or ignore a little blur from the 'off' eye, the are able to see clearly at any distance between their two eyes.
I think people have a tendency to just latch onto the idea of "not needing" glasses. It gives them a good feeling when they think about not having to put anything on in the morning in order to see clearly. They like the 'idea' of not being dependent. This seems to happen even to people who *like* wearing glasses...perhaps Elton John is an example. It's kind of funny, though; from what I've heard, the thing most people report as the best part about having had lasik: being able to see the alarm clock when they wake up in the morning. !!! Who cares? The point is, it's all about the 'idea', random feelings not really based on factors that matter in a concrete way.
Portia 13 Nov 2002, 22:58
I wonder if Elton John will have big charity auction of his glasses collection? That 200 page fully illustrated catalogue from Sotheby's or Christie's would be a collector's item in itself.
blueberry 13 Nov 2002, 20:14
this isn't exactly on the musicians topic...but as we're talking about monovision...what exactly is that? could i have some back ground info?
thanks a lot
The OGL 13 Nov 2002, 17:39
Curt: I didn't go monovision until I was 56 years of age, and had no binocular problems right from the git go. I'm a pilot, at the time drove over 25,000 miles per year on very narrow two lane roads in bad weather,served as an Air Force reservist, etc and again, no adaptation problems. But, you either adapt to mono or you don't, that's why it's not a good idea to do it through lasik. If he goes mono with contacts, it would probably only be an occasional situation and probably just in one eye, or he may go with readers. On rare ocasions, I've seen people intentionally undercorrect by 2 or so diopters, and then they can read and only wear specs occasionally for distance tasking like driving, etc. But I agree, with glasses as his trademark for such a long period of time, why screw with lasik?
Alan 13 Nov 2002, 14:58
With so many pairs of glasses and so much history with them, I sure hope he has a good reason not to prefer contacts over lasik. If he wants to go without glasses, why not wear contacts? Well, obviously, he has a reason; they're easier than lasik (price wouldn't be a concern to him one way or the other, I imagine). I just wonder if his reason is a good one (and I doubt it).
Curt 13 Nov 2002, 13:56
OGL - possible, though not highly likely. Elton has had binocular vision for years, and at 55 years of age I wonder how well he would adapt to monovision. And I wonder if he would even try contacts, after wearing specs for so many years???
blueberry 13 Nov 2002, 12:26
:(
blueberry 13 Nov 2002, 12:26

The OGL 13 Nov 2002, 11:56
Curt: not necessarily.....he could opt for monovision lasik (a bad choice, but then so is lasik) or monovision contact (s), or even bifocal contacts.
blueberry 13 Nov 2002, 11:33
may we rejoice in the *weaker points* of laser surgery!
Curt 13 Nov 2002, 11:21
Fear not! At his age (55), he will be back in readers, half specs or bifocals in no time!!!

Way to call me on that. I was waiting for somebody to call me on that, when I said that Beyonce failed the exam. In further irony, not only did Beyonce say that she failed the eye exam, she states that under the caption of Secret Flaws.
Type in this link http://megadestiny.tripod.com/beyonce.html. I think that Beyonce is one of the sexiest celebrities around. What a body!!! I can only imagine what she would look like with specs to go with it.
The OGL 11 Nov 2002, 06:19

glassez luva 08 Nov 2002, 15:28
I was pleased to read on a website for the R&B group Destiny's Child that Beyonce Knowles failed an eye exam and should wear glasses. Unfortunately I have never seen her in specs. If anyone knows of any pictures of her in specs, I would love to see them.
KYGL 05 Nov 2002, 13:04
That reminds me of a story I remember about Fleetwood Mac singer Stevie Nicks. Someone asked her how she wrote such dreamy music, was it drugs or mysticism. She said no, that she was very nearsighted and would take off her glasses and the mood was just right!
Pippi 05 Nov 2002, 12:33
I think Martine usually wears contacts though. She made some jokey comment a couple of years back about taking them out when she was performing so she couldnt see the audience and get nervous!
GwGs 02 Nov 2002, 11:42
It annoys me when people say they are blind without their spex and you have only seen them wear them a couple of times, she obviously isn't, and evidently from the pix i've seen doesn't have a high rx either!!
GwGs
Maverick 01 Nov 2002, 11:01
I saw it and , yes Ive always thought she looks great in glasses. Not sure why she says she is blind without them though as any picture Ive seen of her wearing them, and there are quite a few decent ones around - Rex features for instance - suggest a pretty minor prescription
Alan 01 Nov 2002, 10:56
Some pics I guess from the music awards. I don't understand why she'd apologize for wearing them - they look great on her, and I can't imagine many people saying otherwise.

Has anyone heard of or know anything about an Aussie singer from 80's or 90's named Kim Durant? I read an article in a mag once which said she had to have white tape put around the stage edges so that she didn't fall off because she was so myopic and couldn't wear contacts.
Doc 26 Oct 2002, 20:06
I heard an interesting song today. It was called "Four-eyed Girls" by Rhett Miller.He is the lead singer in the alt-country group "Old 97s".
I researched the CD that it was on and I found another song titled "Terrible Vision". I think it is interesting to find two songs with similar subjects on the same CD. I think they might both be about an acquaintence of the artist.
The OGL 24 Oct 2002, 17:16
LikeGlass: Nope, that's not the answer. They don't have the FDA regs overseas, lenses don't have to be shatterproof. They can make them as thin as optics will allow. Anyway you slice it, the higher the index the thinner the lens, and glass has a relatively high index.
girnur 24 Oct 2002, 14:49
I have to agree with OGL. My current lenses are made of glass and their edge are not as thick as it would have been if the lenses were made out of CR39.
Yes. I finally got the guts to post something here...:)
LikeGlass 24 Oct 2002, 12:15
But there in-lies the answer. With a glass lens, the "base" has to be much thicker so that the thinest part of the lens will not be easy to shatter.
The OGL 24 Oct 2002, 10:08
LikeGlass: I beg to differ. Crown glass is usually a 1.53 index, whereas CR-39 is a 1.47, so glass would actually be thinner than regular (non-hi index) plastic or nearly the same as polycarb which is usually around 1.54. This is especially true overseas where there's no government mandate regarding the thickness at the thinnest point which is the center of a minus lens.

LikeGlass 23 Oct 2002, 17:34
One answer to this is that John was from a time when glass lenses were used. By nature, they are thicker, and when compaired to our modern frame of referance, look to be a much higner Rx.
kaleidoscopeyes 23 Oct 2002, 16:19
that's funny...i expected him to be a lot more..i guess most people's definitions of "very" is way lower than the eyescene's

I wouldn't say John Lennon was "very" nearsighted. I would guess he was somewhere between -3 and -4.
kaleidoscopeyes 23 Oct 2002, 14:49
i am a big fan of john lennon and want to know more about his vision. he was famous for being very nearsighted and having really strong glasses...but i'm terrible at guessing prescriptions as was wandering whether anybody here had any idea as to what it was...

My source for this info is two websites;
Popworld.com where they had a pic of Britney wearing glasses and the caption said "Britney gets more spex" and Britneyfans.com also commented on her getting a new prescription.
Val 23 Oct 2002, 05:58
Does anyone know where to find pictures with Debbie Gibson wearing glasses ? She is a singer and I remember one of her videos made in 1987 (I think) where she was wearing in some scenes black plastic frames glasses with -3 or -4 lenses in them. Of course I could be wrong, because it's a long time since then.

Does anyone know if Britney Spears prescription has increased? I notice the title for one of the new photos of Britney on GwGs site is "BritneySpears-nuprescrip002.jpg". When was the photo taken(I'm presuming it was sometime this year)?
I haven't seen her in those frames before. She looks really good in them
The OGL 16 Oct 2002, 08:19
Specs4: you're beautiful. To boil down what you said to one word, it's experience. About the only thing I can add, and this is what requires the "stealthy sneak" at times, it to try and look through the side of the lens at a mid range or distant "target", that can help.
specs4ever- 15 Oct 2002, 20:46
Really, it is just a guess, based on past observations, and compairisons to lenses that we know the prescription. Just knowing from the lenses concentric rings that they are fairly strong is a good start. Then you take into account how much the edge of the person's face is shrunken in, and you come up with a guess. Sometimes I have been as much as 4D too high, sometimes the same too low. Of course, I don't tell anyone here that I am wrong once in a while.
wondering... 15 Oct 2002, 14:08
how can you guys tell the rx of someone's glasses just by seeing them? i mean, i can tell by the concentric rings whether they are strong or not, but all you seem to be much more precise. how do i go about determining the strength of someone's glasses more accuratly?
thanks-
Glowworm 03 Oct 2002, 05:31
GwGs: of course it's questionable whether artists like Britney Spears or Hear'Say deserve being called musicians considerung the quality of the stuff they're publishing.
However, considering the aim of this message board I think it's not too important to rate the quality of any music. What we need to give the board a structure is some categorization to decide whether someone is to be featured as a musician, an actor or whatever, regardless of how good he is in that discplines. If someone is looking for pics of Britney Spears, he will check the "musicians" section rather than any other one.
Never forget it's not about the music but about the fascination of seeing them with glasses. And imho bad music doesn't destroy the thrill of a nice glasses pic. (You don't have to listen to the music while watching the pic. ;-) ) Rating their music is up to other message boards, not to this one.
GwGs 02 Oct 2002, 08:10
That's what i thought Oscar.
When i saw her on TV the other day she was right next to the camera (unless it was zoomed in) she can't have been more than 18 inches away as she was seriously squinting, her eyes didn't look that comfortable focusing on anything.
The question has to be asked, why didn't she wear her spex?
On a seperate note, i don't know why Hear'say members can be posted in Musicians as i would hardly call what they used to produce (now they have split) as Music, would you?

Oscar 02 Oct 2002, 07:52
GwGs, I think Suzanne Shaw is quite myopic. During the original Popstars series in some of the earlier episodes she often wore hew glasses - about minus 4 or 5 I'd guess.
GboySL 02 Oct 2002, 05:21
Does Jenifer Lopaz wear glasses? I feel that she needs glasses since she always squint when she see the distance objects.
GwGs 02 Oct 2002, 01:18
I was gonna mention Suzanne Shaw out of Hear'say as she is a gwg, and won Spectacle Wearer of the Year in 2001. I saw on her tv the other day with her group members, and she was seriously squinting at the camera, i guess she ALSO had contact lenses in cos her eyes seemed a bit misty/dazed.
I didn't think she was that myopic, but having seen that footage i'm inclined to think otherwise. There is a press cutting in my site on the "In the Media" page (http://www.gwgs.co.uk/inthemedia.htm) where she says that she has broken loads of pairs of glasses in "steamy makeouts"!!!

Good news/bad news.
The British pop group have announced today that they have decided to split up and the band members will be "lying low" for a while.
This is a blessing for our ears as there will be less cheesy pop music around. Unfortunately there will be no more sightings of the 2 very attractive female group members wearing their glasses.
