Storms - Dennis Wilson

I think you nailed it down pretty well, Michele.



I don't want to start a whole topic on this, draw a lot of attention to it or make a big deal, but I have a question. Does anyone think that Chris had a little nip/tuck done sometime between Behind the Mask and The Dance? I mean, I thought she looked really good in the Behind the Mask tour footage I've seen. But, in The Dance video, she looks...different. Not necessarily better, just different.

Yeah, I think there was something done. Thank heavens though that when she did the ITM publicity she still looked good and natural and didn't resemble Joan Rivers or anything. And how does she stay so trim? She kept talking about cooking pasta for Dan. When I make a habit of cooking pasta, somehow I'm not able to fit in the size jeans that she's still wearing.

I think she does lead a fairly lifestyle these days. No drugs, no alcohol, good healthy food and walking the dogs three times a day.

I think that's one of the reasons why she doesn't want to go back to working with FM - she thinks she might sucked into that unhealthy lifestyle. I think that these days they're all healthier than they used to be.

I thought Christine looked markedly better during the Tango-BTM period than she did around Mirage-Christine McVie. I think it was simply due to more flattering makeup and hairstyle. But, makeup and hairstyle alone cannot explain the change in her appearance for The Dance. You can see in the Tango vid that she is pretty thin, yet not as thin as she was in 1997-98 (or now). When women get to be the age she is now, they often look younger if they gain a few pounds. In those interviews for ITM, I swear her thighs looked about as big around as my forearm. She still looked good for her age, even if she was a little on the bony side. I did notice that she had her hair all in her eyes again. I've always had the urge to reach through the TV and brush it out of her face. Whatever work she had done prior to The Dance was very WELL done and subtle. She didn't look like she'd had anything else done since.

The last picture of her that was published her hair is a little shorter and I think looks better than during ITM.

I agree that if she had some work done it was very good.

The thing that got me about that last picture of her was the lack of eyeliner! She is almost always seen wearing oodles of eyeliner. She doesn't really need it.

I love the Black and white photo of Christine during the Dance promo...

i like her hair in that too

Me too. That Dance era short haircut was her best hairstyle ever, in my opinion.

I totally agree and I don't think it was just the makeup & hairstyle. From around 1982-84, I think she was still trying to recover from her time with Dennis Wilson. She was still doing drugs too at that time. In one of her ITM interviews, she said that she quit doing drugs in 1984. She just didn't look healthy during the early to mid 1980's. I remember I saw her in a TV interview just as Tango was coming out. I couldn't believe how fantastic she looked, so much better than earlier during the Mirage/solo period.

I would put it after Time and before The Dance

Yes, check out her pictures in the Time booklet, then look at her Dance era photos. Something obviously happened during that time.
