COURTNEY PELDON vs. BROWN PELDON
The Sisters Peldon (one of whom, as you'll see below, may not be a natural Brown after all) are pitted against each other in a quest to determine which more hopeless dresser wins the coveted No. 16 seed in the Cher bracket, and the ensuing right to mount a charge against No. 1 Lindsay Lohan and her relentless pursuit of more leggings. This is a clash between ladies after whom, as a unit, we named an entire chapter devoted to sibling fuggery in our book The Fug Awards because of their tendency to wear things like this to a charity event.
As far as we know the charity was not actually The International Society Of Out-Of-Work Wrestling Divas and Former American Gladiators.
Courtney, she of the purple sequined bra top up there, is the oft-overtanned and therefore crazy-faced sister we found first. She popped up at all manner of premieres and parties seemingly without any relevance, occasionally without pants, sometimes with awesomely chosen company, and generally in something frightening to behold. There were whispers of an engagement to Crispin Glover, then the disappearance of any kind of proof. And what is THIS?
Or this?
Little Bo Peep may have lost her sheep, but she appears to have found a few other things to play with instead. Initially, we were frightened by these antics, but quickly realized we'd be bereft without them. Oh, sweet Peldon: Original Flavor, to spend a day in your closet would be like skipping through Willy Wonka's candy paradise -- one unbelievable, credulity-defying sight after another, followed by the faintest concern someone had snuck us some acid.
Then Brown -- the Peldon formerly known as "Ashley" -- arrived on the scene. There was this, and her deep affection for this skirt, plus a shirt we never quite understood, a wicked dalliance with leggings, and of course those rumors that she was working on a rap album. Indeed, Brown is something of an entrepreneur, at one point starting her own perfume company online because people told her she smelled good on the set (what set, we couldn't tell you), and making almost every scent out of ingredients you would use to make dessert. She's also started lightening up (again, apparently), presumably preferring to be identified by her given moniker rather than one we gave her based on her hair color. We can't imagine why. It's like if Alicia Keys blew up her piano and took up the clarinet, or if the Jolly Green Giant turned yellow and got really cranky. Don't mess with your trademark, folks. Don't mess with what we know.
These are just scratching the surface. The only reason the Peldons aren't seeded higher is that they've dropped out of the Hollywood rotation lately, and aren't as adorably wacky when they do appear. But we respect the levels of lunacy they've achieved in years past, so we chose to have them face off here in a nod to a bygone era that's in serious need of a sequel.
Give 'em a Google if you like, brush up on their fashion history -- remember, it's not about the specific outfits pictured above, but rather their body of work, strength of schedule, and likelihood to choke under pressure (which could be an asset or a hindrance, we suppose) -- and then answer the pressing question of the day: Which Peldon should win this sibling fug battle and advance to some hot Round One action against a girl who's had both their hair colors and then some?
I picked Courtney because I get the feeling she intentionally chooses what she wears and knows its as crazy as it appears to us, whereas Brown just seems clueless about what to wear and tries to find the least offensive of Courtney's cast-offs.
...ladies, are we allowed to post comments again?!? Joy!
Courtney's bizarre tan in the Bo Peep dress actually captures my attention more so than the dress. I love her in all of her crazyness.
Aww, c'mon! This is such a gimmie. We all know that Courtney is the wellspring of this fug, while Brown only wades in at the shore. Courtney all the way.
Courtney is the clear choice here. Those lo-rise jeans in the very first photo are about all that needs to be said.
Not even close! While Brown exhibits more of a "freshman in college on her way to her first sorority party" cluelessness, Courtney is actually TRYING to look bad. She must be, right?
I think she even stands a chance against Lohan.
They're both delightfully insane (fashion-wise), but Courtney is clearly the insaner. Besides, I remember Ashley from her actual job as Mara on Guiding Light. Courtney gets my vote.
Courtney will always be my top choice, although I must give kudos to Brown for such unstoppable effort.
What puts Courtney in the top spot for me is the fact that her face is so often an entirely different color than the rest of her exposed skin. Well, that and the extra helping of crazy in her eyes.
there are many times i am rendered speechless by the fugtrocities committed by one courtney peldon. now that i have seen them all in succession, it just does not compute.
IL Brown, but she just can't bring the crazy like her sister. She always gives off this slightly self-aware vibe like, "Am I really wearing this?"
Is this even a contest? Poor Brown she'll always be second fiddle to Courtney.
And seriously, I still wonder just who the heck these two are.
Ah, Courtney, we salute you too, baby. We salute you, too.
Brown's merely a bland orange creamsicle next to Courtney's double cherry mint bubblegum ice cream sundae with ball bearings, sprinkles, glass shards and oh yes, nuts.
Courtney, all the way. Her sister gives her a run for the money, to be sure, but while I vaguely remember Brown (how I wish she would stay Brown) showing up in marginally less alarming and dare I say sometimes cute outerwear, C.Pel has NEVER let us down.
they both have the potential, but they aren't consistent enough. they can show up being decked out fug or scrape by with fab or be full on fab. the title should go to someone with more consistency......
Thanks for doing this!! I am a big fan of college basketball and will be following the NCAAs and the NIT; but not with as much laughter and "ewwws" as this Bracketology. Lots of fun.
A Peldon divided against itself cannot stand. The winner will fall at the hands (legs) of Lindsay's leggings.
They both look ridiculous....
You gals are doing a fabulous job over at Fug HQ.
Thank you!
Wow... I voted for Courtney, but I'm surprised at the majority. I guess I felt that Courtney, being the oldest, was the first to foray into the crazy, while younger Brown hasn't made any strides above and beyond her sister. Sure, Brown has branched out, but she's under the "younger sibling" curse. You must be 3x as (insert adjective oft applied to older sibling here) in order to be better at it than they are.
Thanks, Fug Girls! This is so much fun!
I'm so happy you're linking to the greatest hits of each contestant! It makes it so much easier to make the true Fug choice, which in this case is Courtney.
It's as if they don't have mirrors. Although I must say, they always look very pleased with themselves, so perhaps they're delusional, in a happy way.
There was no competition once I saw those thigh high hot pink boots Courtney was sporting.
I'm loving the Fug Madness!
Courtney's slightly longer trajectory of fugdom truly gives her the edge on this one. I do love how proud they both sport their fugly outfits. You can't help developing a soft spot for their smiley faces in the midst of invariable fug.
What threw me over the edge was the purple pirate wench outfit with SPANDEX SHORTS!!! hahahahahahahaha!
Courtney or "Brown?" Chocolate or Vanilla? Brahms or Beethoven? All enduring philosophical questions for the ages. Alas, are either of these women strong enough to take on Li-Leggings-Lo?
Oh Courtney Peldon, why are you so tacky?
Nostalgia forces me to vote Courtney over Brown. Brown's really been coming on strong lately, but it's just not enough to overcome the long, wide trail of crazy her sister blazed lo these many years.
Neither Peldon will be able to beat Lindsay. But I must say it's quite a fugtastic trip down memory lane clicking on all of the links! I worship the acerbic wit of the Fug Girls!!!
I thought Brown's outfits were worse, but, I voted for Blond Peldon because her Fug was pulled off better and I would like to see her face off against La Lohan.
seriously. i cant tell them apart. may the best fug win!
Props to Brown, but Courtney reigns supreme. As with the famed Williams sisters duking it out on the tennis court, the younger may have flair, talent and perhaps even superior strength, but the elder possesses a certain "je ne sais quoi" that the younger simply cannot imitate.
Brown Peldon wins coolness points for having been in the movie Drop Dead Fred with Rik Mayall, but Courtney has more thoroughly fugged her way into my heart.
It's not just about the clothes. Take a look at Courtney's eyes. You will see not just desperation and an intense desire to be noticed, but also a deep, deep crazy. I mean, like "Baby Jane" crazy. She is a fugly ticking time bomb, my friends.
It has got to be the original, Courtney will win in a landslide!
o GRACIOUS i'm excited about this. i'm all ready to pencil Court into her rightful slot on the brackets!
Courtney is way more fugged out than Brown...I mean I might actually see people at the mall dressed like her sometimes, but Courtney...nope, no one, not even someone who shares DNA can compare.
I just burst out laughing and spat all over my laptop when I saw the little bo peep number. How apt.
Original Peldon gets my vote just for the Emmy outfit alone. (okay fine maybe the thigh high hot pink hooker boots influenced my vote too)
I really shouldn't attempt to judge these on an empty stomach.
Or maybe it's better than being full.
Did I read it wrong, or did Courtney actually appear convinced that the rest of the world appreciated her pink sequined skirt/boots with wifebeater combo? She looked more pleased with herself than usual in that photo.
Courtney gets my vote for her staying power. She came first. And although the differences between the two can be subtle (to say the least) Courtney usually pulls off the wackier, far more fugly outfits, more consistently than little Brown.
Also, as far as choking under pressure, the what must have been considerable pressure of being married to otherworldly Crispin Glover really put Courtney on the edge of the ninth level of fug for a while there (mostly I'm thinking of that weird piratey outfit, and wasn't there another brush with Little Bo Peep in there too?)
Heather and Jessica ROCK!
Verrry difficult decision. In the end ,I voted for Brown because of her fugly name change.
Lynn
I'm beside myself with joy to see comments return to GFY. H&J, we won't let you down--everybody please play nice so we can keep them for awhile!
I don't think it's any surprise that Courtney has left her sister in the starting gate with this one. Even if you can look past her dramatic backstory with the stabbing, Crispin engagement, and birthday cake wherein participants had to eat her bikini-clad image, she's run circles around Brown for bringing the crazy when it came to fug. So often, she was clearly the more hopeless tweedledum to Brown's tweedledee. Fight on, Peldon!
Courtney doesn't give a chance, she is just 2 much for my eyeballs...
It was the pink 2-dollar whore boots that put Court over the edge.
Courtney is the OG Peldon... SHE TAKES IT!
brown peldon is bad, but courtney...hands down ridiculousness!! brown can still be steered in the right direction, like away from silly trends and her sister's hand me downs. courtney is hopelessly lost somewhere between lil' kim's handmade cast-offs box and wet seal's clearance rack. bring it on, lohan. you might own the crazy, but courtney's got the stones to wear her crazy.
it was the dress that courtney wore 'seemingly without relevance' that really decided the issue for me.
Why are Courtney's abs so scary? And where, exactly, does one purchase a purple sequined bra? Sorry, Brown, but your sister is just a wee bit more batsh*t crazy than you are.
Courtney blows Brown out of her very ugly shoes. Yes!
Like there was any question who would win that one!
Blonde Peldon all the way! It looks like she purchased every single item in her closet from the discount rack at Wet Seal, providing us desk jockeys countless hours of entertainment via the Fug Girls. Bravo!
I can't help but think of Brown Peldon as her sister's accessory. Sort of her fug purse. So Courtney wins for me.
ah, the Peldons - what a terrific start to what I'm sure will be a many-work-hours-wasting competition! yay!
Was that a dollar store lay fashioned into straps on one shirt worn by Miss Courtney? It was a tough draw, however the appearance of that shirt sealed the deal for me. What in the hell was that?
Courtney's just not that bad of a dresser. She just has an unfortunate sister.
Sadly, Brown Peldon has fallen victim to the curse of so many younger siblings. She tries, oh how she tries, but she just can't quite measure up to her older sis can she?
Courtney Peldon is clearly the fuglier Peldon - there's no comparison.
I gave due consideration to Brown, but as a longtime GFY reader, my vote had to go to Original Flavor Peldon. How could it not?
That Crispin Glover accessory was genius. Courtney wins.
No contest. While possibly enabling Courtney, Brown is comparatively the fashion sober sibling. Besides, she stands no chance against Linsday while Courtney has a very fair shake. I'd wear a Lilo outfit any day over a pick from Courtney!
This is not a difficult decision. I mean, that patchwork dress that appears to be splitting down the middle, disintegrating, falling off, and dragging on the ground all at once should by itself propel Courtney to at least the Final Four.
who are these girls? what do they do when they are not at the opening of something or another?
I voted for Courtney. Shamefully, I actually like some things that Brown has worn.
Apparently I'm in the vast minority, but I really think Brown's fug is more of a failure in the sense that I think she might actually be *trying* to be fashion forward, where as Courtney is merely off her meds.
Comments! Lo, how I have missed you.
That is all.
Courtney dunks on Brown. Owns her in the paint, and has a mid-range game that is clearly upper echelon mid-major. There's no fighting vacancy behind the eyes. Courtney all the way and twice on Sunday. By the way the idea of this, and the spirit behind it has made a lifelong fan out of me.
First?!
I'm from Germany and the Peldons are (un?)fortunately not at all known over here.
However - over the last years I learned to love those adorable fash...ists - as Joey Tribbiani would say - just as much as you must do, thanks to your website.
See you in the next round, Courtney!
No contest here - Courtney is Fugtastic!
I have to go older fug--she set the wacky standard for her
fugger sybling!
Of course, no matter which way the voting goes, either Peldon is just grateful that we even know their names, let alone that they may or may not go on to the next round of March FUG.
Brown Peldon's outfits are plain gross, while Courtney is gross with flair. Flair wins!
Definitely Courtney, she brings tacky to a whole new level.
It's not even close. Brown is more of an "unfortunate" dresser, while Courtney is truly an artiste of fug.
courtney by a longshot... some of the stuff brown wears isn't all that awful. (please note i said "some"... and also "all that") ... call me crazy but i actually kind of dig the little black dress. not for a red carpet or charity event, but say i wanted to go out and get a bunch of free shots from drunk college boys who are willing to pay for them because my boobs look amazing in my dress? i might wear that one :)
I feel I can somewhat understand Brown's choices, even though they don't work at all, but I can see how she might think they work. But I just can't get into Courtney's head whatsoever. Even when she's being demure, it's just trashy. Plus, her rib cage might poke an eye out.
It's a hard call because I feel like Courtney somehow feels like she's "in costume" all the time, whereas Brown is just ... egregiously badly dressed, but never quite makes it to "It's Halloween year-round, y'all!" I can't decide if a perpetual costume party is better or worse than straight-up varsity-level fug.
Thank you for making me smile and on occasion, laugh out loud. You bring joy to me and my best friend, an episcopalian priest stranded in the Appalachian Territoy. No seriously, she's the one who found you like 4 years back and we've been going to your page ever since.
At least Brown has a little more modesty. Other peldon is advertising for her personal trainer but we really don't want to see it.
I think we are all too scared to make comments because of all the hideous things you've threatened us with if we don't behave. So, in a very subdued and polite tone of voice, I will merely observe that both Peldons wear very fugly things indeed, but I think Courtney's are more fugly than Brown's.
Courtney would have my vote on the fug strength of that bellybutton piercing alone.
It was the stabbing that pushed me over the edge in favor of Courtney - plus who wants to vote for the UPS of Play-in contestants?
I think Blonde Peldon wins for the sheer WTF-ness of her engagement to Crispin Glover. Not only does she have bizarre taste in clothes, but also in every other aspect of her life!
Honestly Courtney's choices seem more skanky and bizarre whereas Brown's just seem unfortunate.
Has Courtney...downsized? And Brown's hair is kinda cute. God. They look almost normal! I hope it's not a lasting condition.
Definitely Courtney Peldon. DEFINITELY. She is reliably the one to make the most fashion blunders. Brown is kinda quirky and cute. ;-)
This is like choosing a favorite gin-based cocktail. They're all so wonderful in their own special intoxicating ways.
WTF????!!!! Who would EVER leave their house...or lair...looking like that? They look like they have a Rave store in their basement. And that belly ring looks like a bunch of soda can tags ripped off, Bedazzled and glued to an earring from Claire's. Plus--grow up, blonde one!
I think I spent more time trying to figure out (and remember) which was which than I did choosing the worst offender. :P
Ah yes, the stabbing of the blonde one. That's when we learned that it is "hardly ever" Ok to stab someone because of their bizarre fashion choices. :-)
Courtney Peldon has the stomach of a pre-op transexual! (I go to a lot of drag queen bingo nights, so I'm an expert on the subject, yes.) I give it to her primarily for being so proud of that she-male stomach that she(?) has to show it off almost every day!
Courtney is not just Peldon. She is THE Peldon.
I miss the Peldons...this was fun. I had to vote for Courtney on the basis of the full body of work (particularly the shiny purple tunic + white leggings...) But Brown really does deserve points for the rap career.
Sigh... now I am all nostalgic for the Peldon days of yore. Come back to us, Courtney.
Definitely Courtney for the win!
Courtney or Brown...Courtney, hands down!
Courtney is obviously the evil genius here. If it wasn't for her bad taste in clothes (and men) Brown may have a chance at a decent outfit...
I miss the Peldons...this was fun. I had to vote for Courtney on the basis of the full body of work (particularly the shiny purple tunic + white leggings...) But Brown really does deserve points for the rap career.
Seriously -- the stabbing is worth at least 50 bonus points in the scoring.
I'm optimistic a win will encourage Courtney to start showing up at more openings. If she's lacking in invites, she can feel free to stop by my house while I open the mail, as long as she's wearing something suitably Peldonian.
I am going with Courtney, and to explain my judgment, I use a Charles Manson metaphor. With, of course, Courtney as Charles, and Brown as the poor, misguided Squeaky Fromme: same vapid pupils, same poor, overdone fashion choices. There is a certain hopelessness in her posture. Now take a moment to reflect on Courtney's eyes, and smile in any of the pictures. Courtney, aka Charles, is obviously the zealot of the two, and I hold her responsible for many of the fashion choices made by poor Squ--er, Brown. I mean Ashley. However, as the good courts found, both parties must share the guilt.
Ladies,
Can I just say how glad I am that the comments are opened back up? Love you fugever.
Courtney's clear case of "crazy eyes" puts her over the top for the win. Thx to the Fug Ladies for opening the comments.
I am weirdly charmed by the Peldons. They seem to be purposeless and yet have few of the Hills-style scary-ass trappings involving cocaine and fake "celebrity" beef. That I've heard of, anyway. They just seem like two adorable, bizarrely-clothed Kristen Bells, except sans acting.
Sorry for the delay in posting the comments, everyone! It's fixed now! We were a bit rusty there.
CONTINUE!
Aw, I so wanted to throw Brown some "love", just so Courtney wouldn't have all the fun. But that Boobs-Ahoy Milkmaid dress just can't be ignored. My vote goes to the Glover-lover. Sorry, Brown!
Poor, poor Brown. You can tell she's trying, but she'll never live up to the Crazy that her sister brings. Courtney, you win the not-quite-famous sibling nutjob gold star for the day.
I find this sort of embarrassing, but... I kinda like Brown's style sometimes. While I find Courtney's look just trashy, Brown seems to select decent, department store style cuts. Her main weakness is constantly selecting cut-your-eyes-out colors. And I agree Heather, her hair is actually cute.
Courtney is the master, Ashley is alas a mere apprentice. Go Courtney Go! Whomever you are! :)
I'm going with Courtney on this one. There's just a level of commitment there - along with a what-me,-crazy? smile - that takes her nimbly over the line from just fug to full-on wack. As the competition heats up, her special version insanity is either going to bring her game to a whole new level, or else take her round the bend to genuine screaming psychotic.
Either way, it should be fun to watch.
I feel bad for Brown. It's like Courtney buys a ton of fug and then lets Brown have the stuff that's fugly but not fugly enough for Courtney's very exacting standards. Brown gets the twin younger sister pains of inadequacy and hand-me-downs. I considered giving her a sympathy vote, but, well, just look at Courtney.
Tracy, I was trying to find something definitive & profound to say, but I don't believe that it can be better said...I bow to your metaphor!
Courtney definitely has the edge on this one, and I agree with earlier posts: of all the wild card "come from behind" entries, she has a serious chance of taking out LiLo. Miss Linds lives in leggings, we know, we know, but Courtney is adventurous with her fugs (extra double bonus points for creativity).
Oh Heather, I so agree based on the purple tunic. It's as though Courtney was on her way to a King Arthur's Faire event in 1988.
Loving the comments open again. Sooooo happeeeeeee!
I vote Courtney - there's something in those big eyes, a glimmer, an eyebrow raise, that just screams CRAZY.
Are those lipo-lumps on Courtney's "abs"?
Courtney should totally win, the Brown one is just so meh in comparison. (But I'd choose Lindsay over her, 16 has no chance against 1, that's the way it has to be.)
I voted for blond Peldon. She know what's she's doing. If she didn't dress this way, we wouldn't be talking about her at all. Poor brown Peldon doesn't seem to know that this is not normal. Thanks for opening up the comments again although I certainly understand why you closed them.
I have to agree with all of the above (below?) but Blondie Peldon wins over Brownie Peldon by a narrow margin- plus her penchant for obviously using that hair crimper thingie that had the 'wave' plates that was cutting edge hair technology when i was in high school in the 80's!
Ahhh, fug girls! my life would be a terrible yawning chasm of gloom without you to pep up my day!
SO glad the Peldons were included in Fug Madness. I was deeply concerned when I didn't see them listed initially. The elder Peldon seems to have a Cabbage Patch Kid face pasted on an American Gladiators body- which would explain the vast variation in skin tones on one person. Brown can't compete.
Courtney seems so comfortable with her constant state of flux she, of course, was the victor over sissy in the end. I can't help but imagine her floating on a pink cloud with her own little world of unicorns, fairies and rainbows surrounding her, singing her praises in unison. Yeah, Courtney, you so rock in the fuggliest way!
I actually think that with the help of a stylist, Brown might be approach some semblance of sanity: she tries so hard for classy and sophisticated, but often pulls of a Junior Miss version of Klassy and Sofisticated.
Courtney, on the other hand, consistently just rocks the most inappropriate ensemble at the ball, and she is totally delighted with herself for doing so. I think that chez casa Peldon, Brown is dreamily taking her meds while Courtney plans elaborate outfits and plots her revenge against Mischa Barton.
Courtney is the obvious win here, not because Brown doesn't put in a solid effort, but because Courtney puts in MORE effort. Her body of work is simply more extensive and the work within is more regularly appalling and mystifying. I did want to give a sympathy vote to Brown, but Courtney helped set a STANDARD and that just can't be overlooked.
Courtney hands-down. Brown's clothes are generally cute, if a tad twee. Courtney's outfits are so mismatched that a clownishness sets in on first glance. What really decided it for me was the store-bought Halloween pirate wench rig. I suspect the party shops sell thousands every year, but I believe Halloween costumes should be DIY.
Courtney...those pink boots are still seared into my retinas.
And thanks, ladies, for bringing back the comments!
One must wonder...whom are the elder Peldons? Where did the younger Peldons inherit that certain sense of "fashion sense" *shudder*.
Courtney is the Paris; Ashley is merely the Nikki.
Sorry Brown, but Blonde Peldon has it all: a tendency to leave the house missing a piece of clothing, streaky fake tan, over-processed hair, association with Crispin Glover. She is could potentially be the come-from-behind Cinderella story in this contest. I'm cheering for you Courtney!
I was sure I was going to vote for Brown. But let's face it- there's a reason one is "Courtney" and the other is "Brown." Courtney is memorably all fugged up.
thanks for fug comments! In this series (I love the Cher bracket!), Courtney is just overwhelmingly fugged...Can Courtney pull an upset in the final? I think she could give Lohan's leggings a run for it!!
(in homage to H&J: see what I did there?)
you girls fugging rule!!
what? only a mere 6% for brown? i hate to say it but courtney looks cute sometimes even if she does look like she's escaped from a fairy tale yet again.
If I had courtney Peldon's rockin' abs, I would be a teensy bit tempted to walk around in a bikini top, too.
I had to go with Courtney on this one. I wish there were room in the brackets for two such worthy contenders, but if I am forced to choose, Courtney seems to be the most worthy. She is obviously thinking she looks awesome all the time and really I feel that Brown just lets Courtney dress her. I get a "Gee, Court, you really think I should wear the brown skirt/top with the gold thingies on it? Well, ok, you know best" vibe from her. Poor clueless Brown, you want to make it in the world of Fug dressing, you need to stand on your own. Better luck next year.
This was tough, both seem to always be deliriously happy with themselves -all the time - no matter what they wear. However the book is most the time always better than the movie - so go with the original!
Bras whether with fringe or not should never be exposed unless you are in your bedroom or the beach - trying to pass it off as a bathing.
I gave Brown a sympathy vote, but in my heart I know it's Courtney.
Poor Brown. She never stood a chance.
Oh it has to be Courtney. I seem to recall a tiger printed t-shirt that hasn't been shown here for consideration, but the image is still burned into my memory.
The bike shorts makes this match up an easy win for CP. I agree that Brown has put in the effort but where is the fug passion? Brown just came up short!
It's all about Peldon Original, Brown just looks cheap and tacky. She can't even commit properly to being bleach blonde. Courtney's a mentalist. Or a genius?
It's definitely courtney for the win. Mainly for the reason that I think she knowingly wears those crazy "outfits" whereas brown seems a little behind the times. Brown has potential to be with it and cute. Courtney though, she's lost forever to the world of fug.
I went with the flow and voted for Blond...I'm scared of here bizarrely high and bejeweled navel though give her gold stars for boinking Marty Mcfly most likley in his bizarro antique gyno chair, however judement her is not based on star but on wardrobe choices..I agree that Brown is just mislead and gives the impression of owning many velvet scrunchies. I picture her wandering through her big sisters closet her hands trailing the many bits of shiny shiny fabric then furtively stuffing a pair of real authentic replica snake skin print boot cut low rise short shorts in her knock off chanel bag.
Courtney. The first photo of her wearing a bikini top, jeans and carrying a fur coat does it for me. Let's all think about this: A fur coat and a bikini top. Yes, clearly that combiniation makes sense.
Both girls have awful taste. The difference is in the attitude.
Courtney's attitude shrieks: SWEET JESUS I LOOK AWESOME!!!
while Brown is a bit more: THIS IS WHAT I FELT LIKE WEARING.
Courtney wins for trying harder. Like Avis.
Courtney, of course. She's the mascot of this site, is she not? Since Bai Ling seems to have dropped off the face of the fashion earth, we rely on Courtney to pop up in absolutely WEIRD getups to reassure us that yes, Hollywood is still crazy.
Brown will have to get a LOT crazier to match her sister, unfortunately.
I don't even know why Courtney's IN this pod. Anyone can clearly see that her only real competition is Bai Ling.
What can I say that hasn't already been said? Cute green dress Vs. goose-stepping in thigh-high, pink, plastic, hooker boots. Blondie, fug you very much!
Hooray, we get to comment - thanks, Fug Girls.
Both Peldons get equal credit for pushing the fug to delirious new heights, but Courtney's brief "engagement" to resident wackjob Crispin Glover pushes her over the edge.
Remember when Courtney got stabbed? That's commitment to fug right there. Peldon 1.0 is definitely the stronger choice here. Not only does she absolutely annihilate Brown in fugness, but I think she might even be able to take LiLo in the next round.
I love that Courtney often looks so very pleased with her choice of outfit. She's so crazy you can't help but love her. And she is the clear choice in this contest. Can't wait to see what happens when she squares off with Lohan.
Are you people all insane? With all the hunger, war, and misery out there, how can you invest so much energy in something so meaning.... Wait, is that girl wearing thigh-high sequin pink boots?
No, seriously, there are much more important issues to... Where do you even find matching stripper bras and crotch-baring pants?
I mean, with an election coming up, we all should... OK, I just can't stand it! Someone has to introduce these two to the Baroness of Bobs.
I am secretly hoping that Courtney shows up someplace wearing leggings with her own picture printed on them. Then she would beat LiLo for sure.
I think Courtney had to win. She has the plastic surgery, she has the creepy tan, she has the pantlessness and the best part (that I'm kind of envious of) she had CRISPIN HELLION GLOVER! She totally wins!
There is NO competition, by far Courtney is the fuglier Peldon. If you look closely at Courtney you can see the crazy gleeming from her eyes while Brown just seems to be misguidedly and trustingly following in her crazy as hell sister's footsteps.
Fug Girls this competition is a stroke of genius on your part and I can't wiat for the ultimate fug match.
I think I might see Brown's outfits on some girls around town (Philadelphia) (more the sorority types, less the working girl types). Courtney is pure Hollywood trash. She wins.
blond peldon without a doubt...and i will really have to re-visit lohan's history..because although leggings are FRIGHTENING....they are not a lei sewn to a tank top. So much to consider......
Courtney indeed. The winning touch for me being her combination of that purple sparkly bra with what appears to be iggy pops torso. Oh, and the Crispin.
Courtney in a walkaway.
Has anyone looked at Courtney's stomach in the first picture? It doesn't even look...normal...yech. At least Brown had the decency to cover with tacky yet functional fringe.
I will always be Court-side. Until - in my wildest dreams - she goes mano-a-mano with Bai Ling. Beware the quaking of the earth.
Brown Peldon is but the apprentice, Blonde is the master. I know I'm not the only one who noticed that she's carrying a fur in the first picture, presumably in case she gets cold in the bikini top. "Little Girls in Pretty Boxes" is on Youtube for anyone who wants to see Courtney's original face.
They are both crazy, but Original Flavor must rise above. Brown is a lesser brand of crazy.
yeah its defo the added nuts that gets Courtney my vote. i think she 'needs' it.. plus she's blonde and that makes a difference.
When I ran into this site, quite by accident, I had no idea of the magnitude of the addictive nature it has. That said, I have to go Blonde on this vote. Brown just does not quite get it, whereas, the salacious nature of Blonde's outfits are almost without equal. Thank you FUG LADIES for such a fun experience every time I log on.
Firstly, Courtney, by a mile. Now that that's out of the way...does anyone else think that C. Pel's abdomen looks like something from "Alien"? Also, the belly button jewel (?) looks painful, like it's distorting her skin. And a comment to the site: I love GFY; Heather and Jessica are true geniuses. Even in the depths of my worst moods, I will go to GFY and snicker my way into a better frame of mind. Thank you!!
I chose Courtney because she brought the fug first of the two of them and seems determined to keep that title. Don't give up on your dreams Blonde Peldon!
I agree with DCDEVA, there are more important...Wait, that is Iggy Pop's torso!
Obviously it's Courtney in a landslide. What I want to know is why they always hold their skirts open like that. Are they showing off the detail that might otherwise get lost in all the pleats? Are they trying to fashion traps for small animals, Oregon-Trail style? Who taught them to delicately open the flaps of their garments like that? Their Traditional Dances of South America instructor?
Team Courtney! Peldon Classic, not NuPeldon! For the clothing, for Crispin Glover, for dating the elder Davis brother. She personifies the spirit of fug.
This whole Fug-mirrors-college-ball thing is awesome. Great idea.
As awfully as Brown sometimes dresses, it pales in comparison to Courtney, who seems to always be reliably wacky.
Courtney always looks delighted-but-on-the-cusp-of-terrified, like a toddler caught doodling a masterpiece on a freshly painted wall. Brown, on the other hand, always looks trying-to-be-a-good-sport-but-vaguely-embarrassed, like someone being forced to pose with a mime in a vacation photo. Both are bad, but Courtney rapes our eyeballs without lube.
Courtney wins.
Brown is delightfully insane, but Courtney brings the fug to a whole new level.
PLUS, the Crispin Glover factor scores her an extra zillion points from me.
Winning is her density.
(See what I did there, Back to the Future fans?)
Keep up the great work! We ADORE your writing and love the site. On topic: Courtney gets my vote because, well, she just takes that fugball and RUNS with it! Kisses, Ladies!
I had to go with Courtney. She dated Crispin Glover. The guy creeps me out. You have to be whacked in the head to date him. And some of her outfits just prove my point.
That child is whacked in the head.
Good luck, Courtney. May the worst dresser win.
Her body looks oddly formed in that first photo - I've seen some 'erotic' photos of 'little women' (okay, midgets in lingerie) who've looked similar.
The different body:face color, milkmaid, gladiator Bo-Peep, medieval purple bodice nighty thing with bike shorts and the cardigan gramma thought was pretty for you when you were 12? Yeah, clear winner. I think Brown is actually cute sometimes and not so "hey, look at my boobs in this !"
While both girls do put the fugest foot forward, I feel that Brown should win this match off. Courtney leads us around by our fug heart strings, making us guess what wacky antics she will next employ to capture our attention. Brown just happens to step in fug on her way out. Intentions are there, she just blindly falls into fugliness.
But, either way, La Lohan will strangle either one of them with her new legging line. Not a fate I would wish on anyone. Not even Bai Ling.
YAY, comments! Life is perfect.
Courtney seems to be an intentional eyesore, whilst Brown just seems to mess up. Her fug isn't as genuine and cheerfully horrifying as her sisters. Courtney ftw!
I think I'm going to have to go with Courtney on this one, though to be honest I really feel that the two of them should be seeds 1 and 2 in the bracket.
It's all been said before -- poor, poor Brown. I voted for Courtney for reasons that will be obvious to most(are those TUBE SOCKS she's wearing with her pirate-wench dress?), but even I was surprised at the butt-kicking poor sweet Brown is taking.
Well, maybe not that surprised. I truly think Courtney is going to give La Lohan a run for her money -- Lindsay's various appearances are all running together in a blur of leggings in my mind, but Courtney somehow always manages to top herself. She's a lunatic genius, I'm telling you.
courtney! all the way! because honestly, it looks like brown is trying, in some misguided way, to follow the trends and look hip, but doesn't have the money to buy any designer clothes and instead raids marshall's. also. i second that courtney's dalliance with mr. glover is a big plus to her power; it's quite possible that his insanity somehow rubbed off on her and added an additional, quasi-invisible super power of bad taste and mind control madness.
Oh yes, Kate, I agree. Peldon (Courtney) is going to kick Lohan's ass, leggings or not. Lohan can't bring the breadth of fug to the table like Peldon can. I think it will be quite the smackdown. Besides, how many knife attacks has La Lohan survived?
I almost went with Brown for the pity vote, but then when in the weird proud skirt post there was a link to Courtne in a shirt with some sort of cat face on it I realized that only she would ever be brave enough to look so fugly. Brown is just following in the footsteps of all that is fugderful in the world.
I voted for Courtney, even though I know I'm being sucked into her cunning plan to be noticed. Because without the deranged costumes (they ARE costumes), what would she be known for...?
Two words -- Crispin Glover. Courtney managed to make her engagement a celebration of fug. Girl deserves the win.
I picked Courtney, because of her track record, was amazed at the sheer majority of the thing, but... I must say, the dress she's wearing in this entry is kind of cute. As in, I'd totally wear it.
And she just looks so HAPPY.
And her cleavage is amazing, yes.
Admittedly, she could have re-thought the shoes...
Somehow Courtney found a sweater I owned in 1983 (when I was six - too bad she couldn't find the legwarmers that matched the sweater). Not only that, but she decided to wear it over one of my grandma's old slips, and my bike shorts from 7th grade. Oh wait, even 7th grade me wouldn't have worn WHITE BIKE SHORTS.
I'm thinking that the bike shorts beat Lindsay's Solid Gold Dancer-inspired spandex leggings every day of the week and twice on Sunday.
P.S. Thanks for giving in on the commenting ability, ladies. I hope we don't disappoint you.
I picked Brown. Wacky fashion, they've both got it. But in the intro column, does she have little ant cartoons drawn all over her body with a black magic marker? WTF is that? That swayed my voting.
Courtney is fug on the outside, and judging by her famewhoriness, she might be fug on the inside. Brown is just a tag-along (or, more appropriately, a fug-along).
Aw, Kristin, you guys are being great -- it really wasn't the masses who ruined it last time, but a small yet deadly few. We have faith in y'all. And we're so glad you're enjoying it.
Courtney Peldon is probably also very grateful.
As many others have pointed out before me, Courtney clearly has an edge over poor Brown, who does seem to be slightly unaware of her lack of fashion sense. How often,f or example, is Courtney displaying a particularly heinous part of her ensemble in some kooky pose (see particularly the whorish pink boots). And is that short, short, no-pants thing a shirt that she thought she could get away with wearing as a dress? Oh, dear. One cannot help but laugh.
Both are horrible but Courtney associated herself with Crispin Glover, the proverbial nail in the coffin so to speak.
Anyone who can pretend like they missed the memo about a brassiere's incapability to double as a shirt will always rank as the winner in my book. At least Brown ATTEMPTS to appear as though she at least took a glance at the inherent knowledge born to every human being - er, memo - by allowing a thin piece of black hosiery to hover over her mid-drift. Not great, but loads better than Courtney "I didn't know this bra wasn't a shirt" Peldon.
Umm, I couldn't decide, but went with Original Peldon. I was asking myself "Can I vote for both"?
And to think, the fugness gets even crazier!
Would that my sister and I could be as unnecessary and yet funloving as the Peldon sisters. I can see us now, me, almost 40, in a silver lame corset with a short hoop skirt, my 37 year old sister in a Dynasty-esque jumpsuit and tiara, neither of us with any talent but both of us with contacts who can get us onto the red carpet for new real reason...then maybe one of us would have the chance at beating La Lohan...
Courtney wins solely because of how bizarre her naked torso looks in that purple bra top. Scary! Also, someone named "Brown" is obviously too boring to win any crazy contests!
This was hard, but I think Original Peldon has a better chance against the Fug That Is LiLo.
Courtney - for wearing a bra top AND carrying a parka. Also for the mime-ishly white face makeup
Courtney is going to kick Lohan's scrawny leggings-clad arse.
I've always thought of Brown as the lesser Peldon in terms of fuggness. It's like Courtney is the main attraction and Brown is the opening act that doesn't quite have her "act" together. She's full of fug, but she's not on Courtney's level. She is fuggness personified.
OG Peldon honestly earned my vote. We should all schedule a mini vaca to Peldonland, AKA The Land of No Mirrors. Then again, Peldonland must be absent of gay friends, best friends, and people with sight, so maybe it wouldn't be that fun.
I wish I cared enough to Imdb her and her brown counterpart to figure out why exactly they are being photographed by the paparazzi in the first place.
I already posted something, but I just have to ALSO say that it's lovely being able to snark out loud again. At least temporarily, no more yelling at my monitor in the hopes that H&J will somehow ethernet-ally hear and understand that YES! WE AGREE WITH YOU!
Ah, fond memories of Peldon past. No matter where I am or what I'm doing, the phrase "unfortunate stabbing of Courtney Peldon" will make me giggle.
That's why I chose Brown, aside from being amused by the name. Courtney looks like she's trying intentionally to look silly. Brown seems clueless and she still succeeds admirably.
Crispin Glover. Pink Boots.
Courtney, hands down.
I'm so glad I read the comments! I had no idea Ashley (aka Brown) had ever had actual acting jobs.
That said, Courtney still holds the crown. The fugulent bear it away.
Also, Fug Ladies, I feel you on the comments issue. I used to moderate a website, and it's practically a full-time job if you want to keep the place one that most readers can enjoy. Thanks for taking on the job to bring your readers a little extra springtime joy.
Original Flavour wins every time. She simply takes it to a whole other level. And let's face it, anyone who owns not one, but two Bo-Peep-esque outfits deserves to go all the way.
The blonde one, because no matter how poorly styled the brown one is, the toe head out fugs (Although I would have loved that side tied Ed Hardy number when I was 8 and obsessed with bedazzling).
Although Brown almost won me over because of the atrocity that was her attempt at a rap album, Courtney romanced Crispin Glover, which means she is clearly in a class above. It suggests that her style is not only pleasing to her despite a lack of popular support, but that she might actually feel sorry for the rest of us for not getting her.
Plus, there was that thing with the birthday cake. I don't want her to cut me for not voting her way.
Courtney is a helpless ass clown. brown is simply guilty by association coupled with the bad influence of her big fugster.

Courtney wins this one. Brown just looks to me like she does not know how to dress and her choices are not nearly as bizarre as her sister. I think Courtney just might be worse than Bai Ling when it comes to clothing choices.
Definitely Courtney. Her fug is relentless...plus Brown was just SO CUTE in Drop Dead Fred. All Courtney's done is almost marry "Crisco".
oh shit I meant to vote courtney.... I need to get me some sleep :(
Love love love the fug-girls thanks for the site
Courtney has forever and always will be a trainwreck in my heart. Notwithstanding, she holds little chance against Lilo. Btw you gals are great and this homo hearts you!
They frighten me. Deeply. However Courtney frightens me much, much more.
Also? Did y'all see the crazy bondage scarf JC wore on ABDC last week?
Courtney. Not only because, well, look at her, but also because of my cherished memory of the day when I had the inestimable pleasure of standing in line behind Ms. C Peldon and Mr C Glover at Home Depot where they were buying matching pairs of black rubber Wellington boots.
Go ahead - be jealous.
clearly courtney. it's almost no contest
I picked Courtney because those jeans she was sporting should be shredded, lit on fire, and then someone should burn sage all around the area.
I'm still pised that neither of them would be my MySpace friends. Fuck you, Peldons, like you're too good for me on the internet??
This was always going to be a one sided competition. I almost feel sorry for Brown. She put up a good fight but Courtney just kicks her ass!
Blond Peldon is just so happy to be fug. Joyously, right-into-the-camera smiling fug. She deserves this one. Brown is a pale, tentative imitation.
For the love of Pete, please make the scary midriff stop. Courtney's abs make her look like one of the G.L.O.W. girls gone horribly, horribly wrong. She will always be a fug winner in my book. If anyone can give Lohan a run for her money, it's her.
Gotta go with the original Fug Peldon, Courtney. From her wardrobe to her choice of spouse, it's hard to top your first Peldon.
Wait, that didn't come out right....
Until I read the comments I thought these two somehow scraped an existence through being photographed at places - you know, pose outside then dash in and fill your pink sequinned boots with enough canapes to feed you for the next four days, sleep fitfully in premieres of low-budget films to avoid having to pay rent on an apartment, that kind of thing: but now I discover thay have actually had paid work in the entertainment industry, just not in anything that's made it to the UK. They seem tarnished now.
Courtney BTW. I think Brown's fugness is accidental. She thinks "Hmmm, I'm not sure this works..." so she checks out what her sister is wearing and, let's face it, compared to a bra and bizarrely ruffled midriff a fringed stripper top is SOPHISTICATED.
Courtney is the original. The original will always remain supreme.
This is the best idea I've seen in a long time. I love brackets. I love fashion. Especially bad fashion. Brackets + fug = PURE GENIUS.
Oh, my god! How can you tell them apart unless they are side by side. In the examples when there is just one of them, I have no idea which one it is since I am so distracted by their clothing!
I'm going with Courtney, but only because she seems to actually THINK she looks good and Ashley seems like she goes for the weird look just to keep up with her sister. Of course this is just me projecting...
Courtney is the clear winner here. Present the two of them with an equally fugtastic top and Brown is going to pair it with something gross but normal like ill fitting jeans, or shiny leggings. It's Courtney with the eye searing courage to pair it with thigh high pink plastic boots, or just no pants at all.
I suppose when no one knows who on earth you are and you clearly have to sneak into all these events, the only way to be photographed is by wearing something that you clearly found outside in the dumpster behind the Dancing With the Stars studio. Courtney is obviously the one controlling their strategy sessions... I bet she makes Brown do the actual dumpster diving... Good Fug....
Courtney gets my vote! Her fashion sense has me pretty convinced she's crazier than a crap-house rat, which is awesome.
I'm also in love with this whole Fug Madness tournament. PURE GENIUS.
Fringed bikini top....fringed bikini top...it hurts us. Fringer bikini top...my eyes. Fringe. Bikini. Sigh.
Well, Courtney was an obviuos choice. She is so much like Hulk Hogan incarnate, especially on the first photo in this glittering purple-bra thing. Wrestle or die!!
Courtney because she is the original, and Brown will only ever be a poorly remanufactured Taiwan copy
Team Courtney ftw.
I mean, the boots. THE BOOTS!
There is no competition.
I was trying to imagine these two in thirty-five years, starring in a Lifetime-spinoff-channel remake of "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?", except I couldn't decide which one should be Bette Davis and which should be Joan Crawford. However, I'm going to start writing that script IMMEDIATELY.
How can you NOT vote for someone who was supposedly engaged to a guy who starred in a movie with rats - especially if she also wears - OUT OF HER HOUSE - a purple sequined bra (which doesn't even have full sides) and a chandelier in her navel. Courtney gets my vote even without the Bo Peep look.
Come ON people, where is your humanity? I cannot believe that the goodly, kind hearted Lovers of Fug would pass up an opportunity to build up Brown's self esteem. The poor thing lives in the shadow of her equally-as-talentless and equally-as-fashionistically-challenged sister and needs to be declared better than her sister at something.
Poor little Brown. No Fug love, smaller boobs than the other one and no alleged engagement to a Hollywood Freak Show of her own.
Look... it has to be Brown. She has NO excuse - wheras Courtney is clearly as mad as a hatter.
Original flavour beats nasty old zinger any day of the week.
Courtney by a mile, at least in this bracket. She'll have a hard time getting past some of the other fugsters. Bai Ling, Phoebe, Posh, heck, even Federskeeve. Ew!
BROWN; nothing else on this site makes me laugh more
BROWN; nothing else on this site makes me laugh more
It's possible I only discovered this website three days ago, but the clear winner has to be Courtney. The purple tunic and white bike shorts is more than enough to blow Brown way out of the water.
BROWN; nothing else on this site makes me laugh more
Wow, when you put all those images together and compare, you really get a good knowledge of Courtney's midriff. I have to say, Courtney won it for me because of that.
Also, Brown has just a little bit of wide-eyed innocence left, at least, she appears so in her shots. A little bit of cuteness and *so* much less midriff.
Courtney! Brown's outfits are definitely fug, but Courtney's are super-fug!
As a red-blooded American Man and a reader of this blog, I'm both attracted by and slightly afraid of Courtney's mannishly chiseled torso. Yikes! You could cut fruit with those abs! I also bow to the will of the vast majority. Sorry, Brown, I even think you're a better actress than sis. I saw her turn on DS9 when I was in Nostalgic Geek Mode and she was awful. Still, I agree with the Fug Girls, too. We need Courtney to bring the Crazy from time to time. I'm just waiting for the Glorious Unfugging, if it ever happens; ice-skating in Hell must be a trip!
Courtney. I actually think Brown looks kind of (gasp) cute in a couple of those. My fug radar must be malfunctioning.
I went with Courtney because Brown gets the IDEA a lot of times. She gets so CLOSE.
Courtney just misses altogether.
Oh yeah, Courtney's got this hands down. Jus look at outfit number one: she managed to incorporate tragic jeans, a Britney-Spears-circa-2001-inspired belly ring that could double as a weapon if someone tried to steal her lip liner, a PURPLE BRA AS OUTER WEAR, a crazy dead animal in one hand, 4th grader barrettes, and stripper heels. All. In. One. Outfit. Brown gave it her best shot, but Courtney's too fabulously fugtastic to let her win it.
Anyone who would accessorize by hanging Crispin Glover on her arm is clearly the craziest and fuggiest Peldon.
Also, yay, comments!
I truly believe Courtney will make it to the finals. However, she will be no match for Bai Ling's unstoppable fugmination.
I personally think ya'll should start a section for Crispin Glover-Peldon's onetime fugly accessory. The man wears the same fugly suit to every premiere he manages (somehow-maybe he pulls out his George McFly routine for the bouncers) to crash. Then again, if you aren't fugging the mentally ill (Britney Spears), then maybe not.
Anyway, I voted for Courtney. Brown Peldon...just...doesn't have as much fugly personality in her clothes.
seriously. can't tell these two apart.
What I wouldn't give for a tour of Courtney Peldon's closet. What a sideshow spectacle that must be! She gets my vote. Brown Peldon just doesn't have the same drive and passion for fugly.
It isn't that Brown's hair is not blonde, it's just that Courtney's is BLONDER.
It isn't that Brown's non-celebrity isn't notable, it's just that Courtney's is MORE notable.
And it isn't that Brown's outfit choices aren't god-awful, lacking in coherent style, and confounding to the human mind, it's just that Courtney's ARE those things, and so much MORE.
Yep, I went for Courtney because - especially in the pic with the pink boots - she looks like she's trying to f**k with people... "can you believe I wore this? can you believe you're not going to call me on it?"
Brown looks like she's actually trying to be cute most of the time. Courtney looks like she views her wardrobe as performance art.
I truly Believe C-Peld has the potential to make it through to the final four. Not only for her fuggery but for her entire existence. I truly DO hope some 90's retro made-for-TV starring roles are in the future.
Comments on Go Fug Yourself are too tempting to resist. Love you girls, love the site.
My money is on Original Flavour Peldon. She is so very colourful, and apparently delighted by her very own fug. It's really quite charming!
Courtney wins by a freakishly large margin. But part of me really didn't want to vote for her. why you ask? Oh because I donned that same bier-frau-lederhosen-german atrocity for halloween (and our x-mas card if you must know) last year. I'd like to think I looked far less slutty and infinitely cuter but whos to say. I can still recognize it was a costume, therefore Courtney reigns supreme!
To vote for BROWN Peldon seems like it would be stealing the ball. After all, Courtney was first and her front court antics enabled Brown to come into play. Courtney, with the pink boots, salutes to our military, pink boots and constant happy grin, I am sure you will go all the way to the finals. I know I'm rooting for you...and hoping that wanna be, Lohan gets ousted in the first round.
I had to consider whether my strong hatred for Courtney was just the fact that she is a dead ringer for Mira Sorvino (causing a little "I'm The Mary" argument in my head between she and Brown) or if she is truly the most horrifyingly bedazzled Peldon in her own right.
Alas, I decided any woman with abs like Conan the Barbarian who has the brass ones to wear a purple sequinned bra in public, let alone to a charity event (Go-Go Girls In Cages, perhaps? Dunk The Peldon?) has to be given a chance to take down Lilo. Or Stitch for that matter.
It's a pretty simple game of gold gladiator sandals, tanorexia, bo-peep fetish. Played similar to rock, paper, scissors. (Un)Fortunately for Courtney, she has managed fugly trifecta in just one photo.
Sweet Jesus, a Fug Madness contest with downloadable bracket *and* comments ... there goes my billable hour productivity for the month.
And what a relief to see Courtney Peldon in the Play-In Game. She has a level of crazy about her to rival that of Sharon Stone. Here's hoping that face-off comes to fruition.
I am loving this! Thanks ladies.
Blond girl all the way. She really dresses like she doesn't care, and not in a good Cher kind of way.
I had to pick Courtney because--I'm ashamed to admit--I like Brown's skirt, too. I'm sorry, but a little part of me is still in a Stevie Nicks/Belladonna phase.
These two had me at "please go away", like forever.
The pink hot pants with matching thigh high boots and that leg extension. Bless her little heart.
Courtney deserves the title for that picture alone.
Courtney wins for me because she can spend at LEAST $3 a year on underwear as outerwear but can't manage to get a cheap fake tan that goes on evenly.
Courtney is the Gonzaga of a few years back. There might be an upset in the first round!
Little Ho Peep....errr...I mean Courtney. Between the excessive self tanner on her face or the freakishly elongated torso, I'm not sure what is worse!?
Is it just me, or does Courtney look a lot like Gwyneth Paltrow here?
Come on: The look on Brown's face in the first picture above shows even SHE knows Original Flavor is the clear champion of all that is Fug. As Austin Powers-y as Brown's fringed top is, it's no match for Blonde's awkwardly pale face/inner elbow/right hipbone skin tone set off by the Xanadu (yes that's right--I SAID IT) Bra. All she needs are rollerskates and some chain-mail/faux-fur pants, which by happy coincidence seem to be clutched in her right hand.
CourPel is an inspration to all. It must be so hard to live in her shadow... and that's why she's Brown-- no sunlight.
Courtney got my vote to enter the Cher bracket. Between the Bo Beep ensemble, super-tacky "Pretty Woman" pink boots, white bike shorts and shiny purple tunic (the horror!), how could I resist voting for her?
I picked Courtney, because I don't actually know what she does with herself. I know that Brown was a child star in one of my favorite 90s dramas: Pretender. She played the child version of the crazy badass Miss Parker (who had an amazing affinity for short skirts and clunky shoes in the first season) in flashbacks.
Totally awesome.
Brown is the New Coke to Courtney's Coca-Cola Classic. There is no competition.
So, the reason I suddenly found Brown disturbingly close to "pretty in a normal way" in the first photo is that she's trying to make over herself into Jessica Biel's twin, right?
(I admit, she's endeared herself to me based on photos, like the one above, where she seems to be rather uncomfortable with the antics of Crazy Peldon.)
Carly L just ruined/made my day. That's what child-Miss Parker grew up into? I'm half-horrified because she was so adorable. I'm half-delighted because it only adds to the mounting evidence that child stars, small or large, never come out sane.
The sad thing is Ryan Merriman (aka young Jared on the Pretender) now looks like he made a good career move by starring in "A Ring of Endless Light" on the Disney channel, in which he talked to dolphins.
Talking to dolphins on the Disney vs. wearing a top with boobs exposed and leather fringe.
Talking to dolphins it is.
Got to Vote Courtney...she looks like Cindrella on crack!
Peldon 1.0, obviously. Is there any real competition between them? There's a reason Brown doesn't have her own section on Go Fug Yourself. Without Courtney and without the rap "career" she'd be nothing, just vaguely misguided and mysteriously drawn to Wet Seal. Even her awesome nickname is just because her hair wasn't the same color as her sister's.
I would love to see Original Flavour Peldon win the whole thing, simply for posing the question, "I she wearing a top that makes it look like she's wearing a bra outside her clothes? Or... is she actually wearing a bra outside her clothes?" But I love me some Lohan, and she has the money and stylists to not be near as fuglicious as Peldon Original and yet still is. Also for the whole "someone must have planted this coke in my jacket pocket! How suspicious!" thing.
All of this Peldon-ness got me to looking at their website. Check out the following quote from Courtney's Blog:
"Yes, it’s true I took some time after I turned 21 years old, while I was on the FOX series “Boston Public” to go out to various Hollywood events and stay out late, dressed in such outlandish clothing that it sometimes appeared that I put on my clothes in the dark….blindfolded....while playing eenie, meenie, minie, mo…."
I agree with what some others have said. Brown has, on occasion, shown up in an outfit that would have looked all right with a tweak here or there. Interesting ideas, poor execution, but she sometimes manages to look sort of cute. Courtney, however, is just...nuts. And I have to respect the crazy. VIVA LA FUG!
Next year, do you think we can get t-shirts with our favorite fugpetitor on them? To make this truly right, there should be some sort of convention in Vegas with a room where the cocktails never stop flowing so that we can scream and cheer for our favorite fuggles in the manner of true fans everywhere.
I had to choose Courtney on the basis of the dirndl. She has totally fugged up my national costume, in which we do take great pride. This puts her on a par with Paris Hilton's appearance at Oktoberfest 2006, after which she was banned from the event in part for her take on Bavarian dress.
I had to go with Courtney, because every bad picture of Brown inevitably had a worse Courtney in frame. That's
Fug right there.
I chose Courtney, mainly because her engagement to McFly overshadows ANYthing her sister could possible do/wear.
I am so happy the comments are back! They are so much fun to read. We all know that Jessica and Heather are incredibly witty and fun – but they also have some very witty fans – some of these comments are great!
(Oh and one more thing, Megaera – if you happen to convince Heather and Jessica to take you up on your great Vegas idea for next year – then definitely count me in!)
Oh, Courtney. You bring me so much joy.
Courtney all the way.
You know, she seems to now own a non-funhouse mirror, but her body of work is so fugly that I think she has a chance to beat ol' Linds in the next round.
Crazy eyed whore-clown could totally take stoned leggings girl. Totally.
Despite the bra with TASSLES that Brown Peldon somehow managed to buy (where would you even find one?), I think Courtney Peldon is just worse. Scarier, blonder, and now with more purple sequins!
Oh GOD the boobs in that white dress.
Seriously?
Courtney is the Original, and Brown is like Courtney Lite.
p.s. Holy Comments! So many of them, and not a single tasteless one (that I've seen, at least). See, we can behave!
Gotta go with Courtney. Not only are her outfits more full-on crazy, she brought her GAME FACE. Disengage your retinas from the terrible navel ring, low-rider pants and purple sequin bikini top, and I know you'll agree with me. That's the face of a contender. She really has the potential to take LiLo down. After all, Lindsay's been kind of one-note lately: leggings ... leggings ... leggings....
Definitely Courtney for taking Hollywood trashiness to the next level. Brown Peldon looks positively decent next to her.
The thing I really love about the Peldon sisters is how sweet they both look. Which could be that they are really, really dumb, but they both always have this calf-eyed, sweet, non-ironic expression. Awwww.
Courtney 100%. Ashley's fug, no doubt, but her fuggery is fairly innocuous. It's like the kind of stuff girls in far-flung Midwestern suburbs who THINK they're really fashionable would wear to, say, the mall, or a barbecue. Courtney though? Courtney takes real RISKS, and they are TRAGIQUE. Courtney wins this one hands DOWN.
I voted for Courtney...she has man feet.
Courtney Peldon in that bo peep outfit made her look like a stumpy she-male. Do they even own a mirror?
Brown just doesn't have what it takes to out-fug Leggings Lohan. Original Flavor Peldon can pull through. In fact, I've got C Peld going up against Bai Ling in the final round.
I just wanted to say that I think you two are brilliantly and fantastically fuggerful.
Back on topic--Courtney. Ugh, Courtney. I think she and Sienna Miller would be awesome in an episode of Celebrity Deathmatch. Just imagine how sweet it would be if their clothes turned on them.
Its just like you say - Courtney Peldon is the original. I always feel asthough Ashley is just trying to keep up
But doing a very good job of it
The review of past fuggliness was a magical trip down memory lane. But alas, there was no question which Peldon would reign supreme.
I had no idea until this entry that Brown's name wasn't actually "Brown". I wanted to vote for her, but Courtney takes it to another level. And the alleged Crispin Glover broken engagement just seals the deal.
I took me forever just to tell them apart!
I went with 'Original Flavor' because I like her nickname better, and I think that purple sequin bra will take her very far in the competition.
courtney, hands down! she could drive those what not to wear people insane in a nano second.
anyone who was every even ALLEGED to be engaged to Crispin Glover has to win. the end.
I voted for Courtney of course... and took this opportunity to visit the fragrance site and I will not be hungry for ANYTHING sweet for a looooong time.
I think i have a bit of a soft spot in my cold, fuggish heart for dear Brown. She's the lesser of the two crazies. But that also means that i had to vote for Courtney, as she's just...crazy.
ok, i originally voted for courtney, who I thought was the obvious choice ... but does brown have a rose tattoo peeking out of the fringe on that lovely bra top?
courtney wins hands down. brown just has poor taste, but courtney inserts truly crazy creativity into her work.
Am I the only one absolutely who's absolutely heartened by how literate GFY's readership is?! Go sassy verbose ladies!
Oh, and Courtney wins the contest of fug with utmost grace; she is the one sporting a melty plastic surgery face, after all.
^^^^
Maybe I sort of nullified my original comment by saying "absolutely" twice, with one in a totally incoherent place.
So I'm drunk.
Um. Drunk sassy verbose ladies? FTW?
Courtney had me with the St. Peldon Girl look; heaven knows, that outfit put the "wurst" in bratwurst. What can Brown do for us? Not as much, alas.
I too voted for Courtney because that black skirt and top that Brown is wearing reminds me of something I wore in my 20's in that neo-hippy phase we all went though in the early 90's. I'm so gald you opened the comments for this and I know we are only supposed to be commenting on the bracket thing but I have to say this... I read your site every day. You are witty and snide but you are never mean. You look at the clothes and not the bodies (or the size of the bodies) in the clothes. Unlike other celeb sites you don't tear people down you just make wonderful and gentle fun of their bad fashion choices. I love you guys!
Courtney wins for me because of the Crispin Glover romance. I mourn the end of that relationship. He is her fug density!
I know how to jump a good trend when I see it....Courtney "St. Pauli Girl " Peldon is IT.
I am still sad she isn't marrying Crispin Glover. I was so looking forward to her wedding dress.
Poor Peldons. Both have an easily forgettable kind of beauty and neither seems to be leaving a lasting good impression in the celebrity world. At least 2nd Edition Peldon seems to be comfortable in her ensembles - so she is safe. But the former future-Mrs Glover creates her outfits only to draw attention and is noticeably ill-at-ease with her choices.
I voted for Courtney, if for no other reason than that one outfit, in that picture announcing the Brown sisters' entry into the contest, made me sing "Yo-lay-he-ho! Swiss Miss!" at the computer screen. That, and wonder just what Peter the Goatherd would think as he saw Heidi's new outfit.
Of the two, Courtney is more focused. That kind of single-minded effort should be rewarded. She deserves a spot in the finals.
The Peldons have two style problems. One, everything they wear looks cheap. Like, trailer-park cheap. Two, spandex bike shorts. Seriously... spandex bike shorts?!?! Worse than leggings ANYDAY.
I remember Brown Peldon from when she was on The Pretender. But her fugness barely matches up to that of her sister (once a guest star on The Pretender, I recall), who I feel is the most consistent offender on this entire site (aside from Lindsay Lohan's bare legs).
The wrestling divas comparison is spot-on! I'm voting for Courtney because she got stabbed once.
Oh my. Is it just me, or is the home of fugly the only place I've EVER heard of these two full-0n fug offenders?
Brown slips by for me on this one because she is at least trying. Trying what, only her physcologist/ bikini waxer could tell us, but trying none the less. SHe has shown us a variety of looks, all fugged. Courtney is presenting the variations of the same fug, over(done) and over (dyed) again.
Poor Brown doesn't stand a chance against LiLo, so Original Peldon got my vote. However, after reading Jessica D's post, I checked out the website. Could it be that the first-born Peldon's "style" choices were just a phase??!! Yes, her eyes scream crazy, but what if her outfits no longer will? Sigh. I fear it will be no contest between Blonde Peldon and the Leggings Loving La Lohan . . . . But at least we have the hope of an eventual Lohan v. Bai Ling showdown.
Fug girls, you RULE!
C. Peldon looks like a cheap cheerleader. At least Brown's hair looks like she's trying to keep it real. Love the fug.
Oh Courtney all the way. How could it be otherwise?
I have to go with Brown, 'cause Courtney was the trailblazer, then her sister SAW how bad it was and continued down the path anyway... that's commitment to fug, people.
SO RIGHT - c. pleg TOTALLY has iggy pop's torso!! how did she do that? not to mention...those tragic pink boots. wow. they were the key to my vote, and to my little black heart.
It was no contest...Courtney all the way - she was the original Fug Peldon and the best. Brown seems to be trying too hard while for her big sis it's effortless fugging and nuttiness.
And, girls, I'm loving being able to comment
I just want to see what else C.Pel comes up with...
I love Fug Madness! It's so exciting.
love the blog as well btw.
Is anyone else sorry we never got to see C.Pel rock the fugliest wedding dress on earth?
I love the fug girls, thank you for doing this!
If I ever completely lose my mind and start drinking paint thinner, I too will have the courage to wear what Courtney does.
Original Flavor hands down! Not that her sister can't give a fight but she's just starting, a little wee fugger; maybe next year Brown, find yourself a Crispin and your game, don't give up...
C. Peldon is the true craziness-source. Brown just gets sucked along in the slip-stream of all that crazy.
Oh, and FINALLY comments?
92 + 7 =/= 100.
Where's the 1 percent?
Maybe Peldon the First stuffed it into her pink sequined boots. Har.
I threw Brown a couple votes because she was amusing in Ghost World. And just to harsh whatever indie cred that would grant me, I also remember Courtney from Home Improvement.
So so lame am I.
Anyone who has the nerve to copy Lil' Kim's underboob cleavage stunt is seriously deranged. Courtney wins, hands down.
Crispin is N.U.T.S.: http://www.interviewinghollywood.com/videos/video-369.php
Oh, come on... Brown was the cutest young Marah Shayne on Guiding Light AND the young Phoebe Cates character in Drop Dead Fred. Courtney seems to be doing it for attention. I fear Brown might actually think these looks work, so she gets my vote.
Brown is just too sane. Courtney wins.
I voted for Brown, because she is, to me at least, the mistress of insane subtlety. She always manages to fug up almost normal outfits with something completely random. The bedazzled coke bottle purse springs to mind to demonstrate my point.
Brown Peldon is just a sidekick, she's the margarine of the Peldon world...
The level of clear-eyed confidence that Courtney has in her own peculiar style is enough to take her to the top. I want to see her take out la Lohan!
It seriously looks from those pictures as if Courtney is trying to turn into Bai Ling.
You've got to really wonder about their mother though don't you? And what's with the whole holding out their skirts business? Is it just to show they haven't spilled their lunch?
I vote for Ashley, the chick with the red climbing harness attached to her dress.
i reckon Brown can sometimes actually look not so fug.
btw "the book" rocks my socks!
There is no question that Courtney Peldon is the fugliest of these two, but she probably doesn't even have a chance against LiLo. What a pitty, since she sure does have some wacky outfits!
Brown needed some love, and I go for the underdog, so I voted her way-- though Courtney would make an excellent Polly Purebred in her Bo Peep Gone Bad ensembles. Ashley was actually quite the talented child actress, proving to be the Peldon with a purpose beyond mere fuggery.
Can't they compete as a team? It's cruel to make us choose.
I believe Courtney's desperation means she wins out over her little sis. Besides, with a big sister like Courtney influencing her, Brown had no chance. So really, we can blame Courtney for the lack of fashion sense of both of them. Also, Brown, though she dresses hideously, usually looks well kept from the neck up. Her hair and makeup generally look much better than her sister's.
Brown looks like she genuinely likes her outfit. The Other Pelden Girl (see what I did there?) looks desperate. And orange.
I voted for Courtney. Because she might just be a danger for your health: heart failure, strokes... She could do anything to you with her personal unique style... So she definitely deserves to win.
I went against the grain and voted for Brown because I remember her as a child actress and it's blatantly obvious she screwed with her face (yes, I know Courtney did too, but Brown really, really did). I don't know; things like that just make me hostile.
I voted for little brown just becoz umm..i pity her? poor little girl..
Oh my gosh! I voted for Courtney before I checked out some of the pictures on IMDB.com. Check out pictures starting at 55 for some truly cornea-jaring pictures. Ouch!
Brown made a solid effort, but none of her outfits have ever made me say "OH MY GOD!" out loud the way Courtney's have.
Courtney for the win.
Brown. Her name is pure FUG.
I gotta go with Original Flavor if only because i've yet to fully suppress the memory of the Ling-Peldon Exposed Ladyparts Extrafuganza of ages past.
There's no way Brown could hold her own with Bai Ling. Maybe if #9 was in charge... but she'd be toast against #12.
Courtney takes the cake. Maybe it helps that she shares the first name of a lifetime fugger -- Courtney Love. She is one of the few gals who would dare wear leggings, clear hooker heels, a see-through ruffle shirt AND sport an uneven poop tan. Brown can only cry in Courtney's fugly shadow. Hail Courtney!
Courtney - She's just bonkers - a lovable bonkers, but dang. It always freaks me out how she looks so sincere and smilie in her pictures though, like maybe she DOESN'T know that she's fug. I think that's the best part.
Oh God, did someone mention a Peldon wedding? I'd watch that on pay-per-view. Imagine what the bridesmaids would be wearing, much less the bride.
Courtney. Although I think they are both nut jobs that do their part to make me feel better about myself.
I know, it's Courtney... but does it really matter? Neither of these girls will ever beat Lohan!!
Courtney beats Brown hands down, however, I'm afraid even Courtney's insanity doesn't have a snowball's chance against the Grand High Master of all that is leggings....even WITH the sparkly bra, stonewashed jeans, and scary abdominal muscles...
For me, it's not even a contest between LiLo and C.Pel - Courtney will throw down the fug every time. Leggings or no leggins, Lindsay will NEVER be able to compete with this. In fact, I think that the only person who can annihilate Courtney at the fug is Charo herself. I love me some Charo.
Courtney wins hands down. It must take a lot of effort to look that ridiculous all the time.
Definitely Courtney...she usually looks like fug warmed over...badly.
While I have to admit that Brown put up a good fight, the post from June 2003 said it all - Brown is unaccountably happy to sport a truly heinous skirt but Courtney wins simply by wearing a too tight t-shirt with what looks like an ugly plastic lei hot glued to the neck and shoulders.
Team Courtney!
Courtney takes it. Putting things inside your bellybutton is never the right choice.... and when you pick out a plastic barrette at the drugstore to match your sequin bikini top (that you are not wearing to the beach)something is not right. Where Brown seems like a confused college girl--Courtney seems like she is trying to relive her nursery school days...but slutty (which is a tad creepy).

I went with Courtney because she has this colorblind-cheerleader-attention-hound thing going on. While Ashley's vibe is more "my sister picked out this outfit that would fit in with hers, but not upstage it. Someday I'll say, no. There's a fine line between 'whimsical' and 'crazed cat-lady.'"
Brown Peldon just isn't as consistently fug as Blonde Peldon. Though I truly wish they came as a larger set, with a Red Peldon, Pink Peldon, Black Peldon, etc.
I think Pink Peldon's perfume would smell like Straberry Shortcake, the doll, and Red Peldon could be played by Phoebe Price. Think of the glorious cat fights they could get into! Red's cheek implants would render her delicate and at a disadvantage, though.
I love comments! I've always wanted to comment but this is crazy, I'm comment #124,009. What are y'all, dooce.com all the sudden?
So Courtney was my choice because, to be honest, I've made Brown's exact same mistakes at one time or another. They are everyday fug that I've made and the college students in Austin make daily. But Courtney is batshit(can I say that on the web?) nutzo! I love her fug. It's Baywatch meets Pricilla on Disney Ice.
OK, who wants to see a "Boys on the Side" meets "Lust for Freedom" type of road trip flick starring Courtney Peldon and Sharon Stone? Premise: they trek across the USA to rescue Bai Ling, who has disappeared from public view due to being held prisoner by the desperate, dismal, mistresses of "tasteful wardrobe," Trinny and Susannah. Now I'm picturing the scene where a defiant, captive Bai Ling shakes her fist at T&S and hisses, "I don't have to listen to you! I am not fat and old and British. I AM FABULOUS." Then they hold her down and do something retarded to draw attention away from her "figure flaws." It involves a scarf the color of a road sign.
Bai Ling and Phoebe Price are honorary Peldons.
A.
Firstly, who made those two celebrities? They are rather pathetic but I think the Heidi costume pushes (no pun intended) her over the top. Sad, really
I love you all. You are the laughter in my day. Thank you for the fun and jocularity.
friend in North Carolina
First of all...Thank you Heather & Jessica for all of the joy you bring every single day! and for the pure genius of "Fug Madness"! We want more.. more!! How about a movie like "The Fug-il wears Leggings"; Meryl Streep would totally co-star with y'all.
Moving on...Courtney is the bigger offender but to split up the two is wrong and to turn them against each other is to negate the whole Power of Peldon.
comments?? whee!
Brown? Who chooses a name like that for themselves? At any rate, I'm going with the crowd on this one. Courtney is astounding in her ability to FUG.
Ah, the Peldons. I'm english so I only know them through their appearances on this site - I dont know what they do for a living, but they look like the US's version of the Cheeky Girls, so I'm all for them. I voted for blondie - she clearly wants it, looking at how much she's desperately sucking her stomach in.
Another in support of Courtney. Remember, she's teamed up with Bai Ling before. Brown would, nay, could never attempt that.
those abdominals on courtney peldon look like they could be detached and used as a WMD, masticating everything is site. good god.
IF they could continue as a team there would be no beating this crew. However, I think we underestimate Courtney's ability to compete - LiLo is too tame, really, except for her Karl Lagerfeld interactions - so it's Bai Ling that stands in her way......let the games begin!
Courtney, for sure. And may I stray off topic and wildly applaud the post about the Marie Claire cover? My cat AND my dog left the room scared by all my laughter. Brava!
I didn't want to put Courtney in the lion's den to face La Lohan, but I had to do it. You don't send your B squad in to face the Patriots.
I've noticed some commenters from the U.K. who write that they only know the Peldons from this site.
I have news for you.
We Americans only know them from this site, too.
The Peldons... they are classy, no? My vote is for Courtney. If you can contort your rib cage in a manner that leads people to believe some poor helpless animal is trying to escape, you must win. And lock your competition in said rib cage.
I think she can take Lo. All the Way.
They're both hideous. However, as a heterosexual male, I can at least appreciate the relief that Courtney's cleavage and/or other physical eye-candy provide for me. When I look at her, my eyes have a place to run, and I'd like to think that she's given me these avenues of escape out a humane sense of compassion. With her sister, I'm generally just stuck staring at a piece of clothing that makes me want to gouge my eyes out with a rusty spoon, which is just cruel. What did I ever do to you, Brown?
Who the heck are these people? I mean, their fashion faux pas might be a little easier to understand if I knew that they were adding to the world in some constructive way.
Clearly I am going to get NOTHING done during Fug Madness. My sides hurt.
Well AD, March Madness has distracted Dudes from working for years and now Sexy Smart Women and Fabulous Mo's like myself can even the score with goofing off during March (oh yeah & you straight guy Fug readers too) . Long Live Fug Madness!
I voted for Courtney yesterday, as I feel that she is the original & therefore deserves it more than Brown. However, upon further inspection I am starting to second-guess my hasty decision to vote for Courtney, based solely on the article linked to Brown about her working on a rap album. It's effin' brilliant!! Brown's hardcore.
Only because this is the only comment section, I have to ask:
Are Kate Bosworth's eyes in the cover above two different colors?
yep: la boz has heterochromia, which, if she weren't such a pretty girl, would make her look like one of those border collies. wiki says some other celebs have it too but nobody's eyes look as cool as hers, imho.
I LOVE THAT THE COMMENTS ARE BACK! At least partially.
Fug girls are fabulous! Too bad we can't say the same for the Peldons. I voted for Courtney yesterday. She's got this thing hands down. When is the next poll????
Blondie clearly wants it, she would relish in the fact that she won... in fact, I'm fairly certain that if you guys actually had an awards ceremony and were handing out the awards, she would be the only one to proudly show up and accept her award (ala Halle Berry at the Razzies for Catwoman). And wouldn't it be great if she showed up looking fabulous? Naw, I think I like my Courtney looking straight up trashy and fame-starved.
As for the poster that said she didn't know who the Peldon's were if it weren't for this site because she's in England... here in North America we wouldn't know these girls if it weren't for Go Fug Yourself.
And for that, we salute you Heather and Jessica.
PS: seriously, people actually voted for Brown?
Someone totally needs to make a Fug Madness facebook application.
Rachel: I have been wondering the same thing since I saw Bosworth in Vogue a couple months ago and her eyes were two different colors there as well. Contact? Odd.
I guess I see it a different way. I voted for Brown because she seems like she's more clueless about the fug. Courtney is an evil genius. For me, fug must also include an element of "what? what did I do wrong?"
PJ, I totally agree with what you said! ^^^
I actually DID check Brown's Wikipedia site...I'm astounded...she's directing a PLAY?
She graduated from COLLEGE? With a degree in child PSYCHOLOGY?
Isn't it obvious that Courtney suffered traumatic head injuries while filming Little Girls in Pretty Boxes? Vanessa Atler was her body double for the actual routines, but I am pretty sure Swoosie Kurtz beat Courtney severely for her bad acting.
