Ok....I have to say this...Rachel looks like she hasn't slept in a week...

[truebrit71]

....great big bags under her eyes....WTF?

[SeattleGirl]

1. I believe she's in California right now.

That cross-country flying has got to play hell on a person.

[TheWraith]

2. It really can. Depends a little on the person, but it can mess you up badly. nt

[jkshaw]

4. I think, also, that the lighting in these unfamiliar studios

has something to do with this. I've noticed it before, that puffiness under her eyes, and it's always in an unfamiliar studio.

[truebrit71]

5. Oh dang....yup that would do it...

..

8. a different make-up artist can be a nightmare

3. This is why I can't believe she's moving her radio show to mornings.

Wouldn't she get less sleep that way?

[panader0]

6. Wasn't she at a dinner with Obama last night?

[FLAprogressive]

7. I noticed that as well...

[LeftyMom]

9. Does she seem less witty? Is she not drawing good conclusions?

She's not on TV to be pretty, she's on there to talk politics. She can do that with a matched set of Samsonite eye bags, for all I care.

[TroglodyteScholar]

11. Thank you!

I was just about to ask whether we love her for her brain or her wrinkle-free countenance.

[LeftyMom]

12. I'd hate to see many of the posters here answer that one honestly.

If you look at the threads mentioning female news people and compare them to the threads mentioning males, the answer is rather obvious.

[truebrit71]

17. Nope, she looks unwell...but thanks for the snark...

...:eyes:

[Mojorabbit]

18. Nothing wrong with being concerned

as to her health. She really did look worn out tonite. I am glad I am not the only one who noticed it.

[xchrom]

10. i think she looks fine. nt

[mucifer]

13. Rachel is a newbie to the msm and she has interviewed Obama on the first few days

of her show. Then she was chosen as one of only a few moderate/liberal media people to get to meet with Obama yesterday. She just negotiated a new contract with AAR. Lots of great stuff going on for Rachel!

[all.of.me]

14. new hair cut. she looks totally different tonight.

i don't like it. but, really, it doesn't matter..........

[bdamomma]

15. yes, I noticed that too.

did she ever mention her dinner with Obama the other nite?

[seabeyond]

16. hubby is sick, he thought maybe she was too. empathy.... and a guy

why i love him. lol

[cliffordu]

19. I did notice that her eyebrow(s) have been professionally thinned.

I need that procedure myself, but male chauvinistic vanity keeps me out of the hair removal/brazilian wax joint.

I'm afraid once they get their hands on me I'll never get out......

[Hekate]

20. Hubby and I are both a little worried about her. And YES, we love her for her brains and wit...

But we also notice things about her that look like excessive fatigue. We thought we were being sympathetically concerned, not sexist. Sheesh you guys.

Thanks for bringing it up, truebrit.
