What a pointlessly nasty article.

She truly is a troll.

So the bitter old bag has this to say

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/showbiz/...hby-story.html

My husband loves me for who I am: naturally gorgeous

What I want to know is who does she send home instead of herself for him to reach that conclusion. And where does she sleep in the mean time, hanging by her feet in the Daily mail offices.

Lizard is talking about these treacherous non makeup wearing anti feminist women's husbands. Her own is long gone and certainly doesn't give the impression of having loved her much at all.
Her writing is dreadful, the grammar is all over the place and it's very difficult to decipher who she's talking about at times.

Yet she is (supposedly) one of the highest paid 'journalists' (and I use the term loosely with regard to LJ) in the country?

The world's gone mad!

Allegedly the highest paid female columnist in the UK.

Incoherent, lacks clarity of expression and ugly in presentation as well as content, I cannot see why she is "the one" other than the DM's eternal obsession with unpleasant female columnists.

Just sticking my head round the door to enquire after the Rock Star!

Did you ever find out who he is - and does he know he's engaged to Liz Jones?

Her latest article is rather rambling, she is a bit incoherent.

Its like she lacks the imagination to write anything genuinely interesting and sits at her desk thinking of ways to write an article to pee people off and that has little journalistic worth.

Amazes me she gets paid so much.

She honestly comes across as bats**t crazy. Does anyone know her in real life?

My only comment on Liz Jones is .. I think she is a jealous bitter woman ,who always wanted children but put her "career" first and now hates any woman who has kids and a career . She finds a way to slate them in her column every week.

Such a pointless thing to try and be controversial about. I think she is a bit envious of all the recent attention Samantha Brick brought to the DM and is trying to reclaim her crown.

Although Brick comes across as breathtakingly deluded, she does it in a more subtle intelligent way and at least argues her point well, Liz is pure nasty and doesn't even make sense.

I have to say, this is the first Liz Jones article I've read and probably my last because... wow

So, women who don't wear make-up are arrogant and anti-feminist? I don't wear make-up because I'm lazy and always late in the morning, (and I haven't got a clue how to apply it) so what category am I in?

The problem is, her initial point that celebs who claim they're natural yet aren't (whether it's losing weight quickly or no makeup), therefore portraying an unrealistic and false image to young women = that is a problem.

But Holly seriously doesn't fall into this category and the article just turns horribly and unnecessarily personal towards Holly.

Why doesn't she talk about the pressures women face to look a certain way because this just seems to turn into a random, pointless, rambling whinge-fest.

No, if he is real then it's the greatest secret since Roswell, she is clearly sticking to the Jim Kerr template and not letting a little thing like a legal warning from his solicitors put her off her fantasing. It would be funny if she wasn't being paid so much to write it. No wonder the DM started allowing people to comment on The Diary, it's the only thing keeping it going.

Hahahahahahahaha! I'm not even a 1/3 of the way through todays, read her rant against Holly (what IS it with her and that lady) and got as far as the picture of her looking like Gollum and thats it!

<<wipes tears from eyes>>

Oh my sides hurt, I'm not sure if I should just skip to the comments

Good grief!

I don't believe he's real for one minute. She's made herself a laughing stock. If she had to make up a boyfriend why make him an ageing rock star? Trying to make herself look glamorous and more interesting perhaps? Besides, most ageing rock stars are with women half their age!

Hahahahahahahaha! I'm not even a 1/3 of the way through todays, read her rant against Holly (what IS it with her and that lady) and got as far as the picture of her looking like Gollum and thats it!

LOL!!!!!

Your post has started me off giggling, I'm sitting here looking like a loon!

Because Holly is everything she's not - beautiful, young, happy, talented at what she does, well liked and popular.

Well, I have to see that she is an intelligent woman. She obviously wanted to cause controversy and she has done so. This will raise her profile and give her wider publicity. Good for her

In a bad way, yes.

This is a woman who is desperate to be liked and accepted - that hasn't happened thus far..........and will happen even less after this.

She hates all other women, either through jealousy or of knowing that she is not half as good as the ones she criticises. She is a sad old witch.

Really?? I must have missed that! Hilarious!
She's a sad old cow who can only make herself feel better by putting others down. In fact, she is the DM personified! I don't think she does go home at night, Paul Dacre just powers her down overnight

She is a journalist. They write articles to get a reaction and in this case, it worked. She will now be better known that she was before and people will take more interest in her next article. She doesn't really care if you think she is a witch or not......she is laughing all the way to the bank.

Bankrupt more like. Wasn't she, as someone mentioned the other day, in deep financial difficulties not so long ago.

She's not what I'd call a journalist either, she's a third rate writer of trash and fantasy.

And she absolutely does care what people think of her.

Katie Hopkins is the mouthy Apprentice star who rubbed TV viewers up the wrong way. But does she deserve our sympathy as she denounces maternity rights in her typically abrasive style?

Hardly laughing because on her way to the bank, she can't resist stopping off in Prada, Michael Korrs, Louboutin and various other designer establishments to spend way and above what she can afford, not to mention the odd £26,000 on the occasional bat sanctuary or 'working' holiday, or the amazing disappearing (when it suits her) ridiculously-priced fridge, so by the time she gets to the bank she's wailing and feeling sorry for herself because the nasty man wants his money back. Diddums.

Haha, oh Liz. She does truly look dreadful without makeup.

But I do think it's pure vanity on Holly's part posting a very particular picture of herself on Twitter without makeup. What does this prove exactly? Nothing, she's just looking for an ego boost for the day. I guess there are worse things!

Have to agree that Holly was shamelessly fishing for compliments by posting the pic, and in the full bloom of youth she knows she looks stunning. Will she feel as confident in her 50s? Frankly apart from poor Mr Seabird, no one has seen me without my slap since I was 16!

BIB: You anti-feminist!

Totally agree re Holly but I looked like her I'd probably be showing off too! And no, I don't think that Holly will be doing it in her 50's!
