--Oscar nominee Mo'Nique is happy being hairy. After she showed off her unshaven legs at the Golden Globes, the actress says she has no plans to change her grooming habits. "I tried shaving one time, and it was so uncomfortable and painful," she says. "I said never again would I do that to myself. I'm 42, and I'm very hairy." [PopEater]

"People in Alaska are so different than Los Angeles," she says. "Here, when people have a frozen look on their face, I find out it's botox!" And...rim-shot! [TheFrisky.com]

Tell Us What You Think
15Where in the Bible does it state "Women must shave thy legs but men are exempt"?
I don't see any reason to shave either. Men don't have to. Why should we? I can't shave because I'm pregnant... so what's the big deal
Those are her d-amn legs. Shut the f-uck up.
ha ha ha ha ha @shamira..love the coment.
DON'T DEFEND, JUST SHAVE. Please...nothing worse than fat legs but fat legs with hair on them.
You go girl, Keep what GOD gave you. If your man likes it, don't really matter what others think.
You go girl, If GOD wanted you to be hairless you would have been born that way. Keep all the hair GOD blessed you with, I'm the same way, just cause other women do it doesn't mean you have to follow the crowd. Stay true to you!!
To each their own, however, if you're gonna go the "natural" route, cover yourself up! No one wants to see your nasty stuff! These are the same people that don't use deodorant....it's just nasty....
She could have this taken care of with some laser hair removal treatments, I'm sure she can afford it.
Can you say LAZY!!!!!!!
No offense to Mo'Nique, who I like, I don't need to know about her Hairy Legs & how much she likes it! Sorry shaving once didn't work out for her, though!
GROSS FAT HAIRY UGLY AND DISGUSTING! OH AND FLABBY SAGGY BOOBS
The only way Sarah Palin can make me laugh is if she jumps off a cliff and disappears for good. Then you better believe I will laugh for days.
Personally, I find hairiness to be disturbing on anyone, male or female. I'm not a fan of hair. BUT I can understand why she'd feel that way, shaving is uncomfortable. Especially to make sure you have a good shave, without stray hairs all over the place. Bleh. If it weren't for the fact that I'm extremely allergic to pain, I'd go for waxing.
i really like Mo'Nique and the role she played on Precious was amazing, she's a GREAT actress!!! this whole thing about her not shaving her legs...well, i mean, it's not anybody's biz but her own and if her hubby doesn't mind well then.... BUT imho, it's just NOT feminine to be all hairy!!! i've yet to come across a man who says that he loves hairy women! but to each their own. still, the comment of her trying to shave 1ce but that it was painful is just hard for me to believe. it CAN be a bit uncomfortable but PAINFUL? sumtimes you can nick yourself but....anyhow, still love ya Mo!!!
