Poses Playbook

Gwyneth Paltrow has torn a page from Paris Hilton's Poses Playbook: offer only three-quarters of your face when photographed for magazine ads. For Gwyneth, her left side is her good side, just like Barbra Streisand. Streisand believes that her left side looks more feminine than her right and that her nose looks shorter from the left. She is such a stickler on this perception that she even had Rosie O'Donnell rearrange the set when she appeared on Rosie's talk show in 1997. (Somehow this post became about Barbra S., but B.S. is a lot more interesting than G.P. anyways.)
