What do you think of the singer/actress Martine McCutcheon? People tend to either really like her or have a strong dislike of her...

annoying runt she is.
I will undoubtedly get moaned at for this, but whenever it comes to Ms McCutcheon, I get the strong urge to rant.
Martine McCutcheon. NO. NO. NO. Why? Christ, where do I begin? When she first emerged, pretty actress Martine came across as a funloving, sweet-natured young woman with a lot of potential. How things go wrong. After finding fame at the grand old age of 18, Martine then began referring to many of her My Fair Lady co-stars of the West End as "my cast". Er, hello, reality check, maybe? Somehow I think Jonathan Pryce and Dennis Waterman are more distinguished actors than this young lady... considering that they have been Royal Shakespeare Company performers have myriad years of solid work behind them.
You, on the other hand, Madam, had Eastenders. Wow. Alongside a couple of appalling AOR albums (what a sad waste of a damn good voice), a short stunt as Liza Minelli's bridesmaid, and a few very minor TV roles under your belt. Followed by nothing of importance, prior to your miraculous re-invention as a Hollywood extra in Love Actually.
Oh hang on - I'm being unfair... I forgot the prestigious award she received for turning up at My Fair Lady (with "her cast", one presumes) approximately once a week, when she got the lead role, years ago.
Poor Martine believed that she was fat, when she was a size 14 and looked lovely. Nothing persuaded her otherwise, not even the fact that she was constantly being voted for in World's Most Beautiful Women polls by males and females alike. So was she psychologically unwell? Obviously. Did she know it? More than likely. Did she seek help? Nope. All this was back in the late 1990s. Today, she's doing TV ads for a slimming magazine. Some things never change, it seems. It's pathetic.
Martine complains loudly about her childhood - I don't blame her, poor kid. I'm sure she did have a dreadful time back then, and I'm sorry to hear it. She uses her biography as a forum to discuss the strong, fem-positive attitude that she gained from her past experiences. Great, all well and good. BUT.... she then slinks off to the Lad Mags, and spouts off about how much she dislikes feminism - saying that she preferred the days when "men were men and women were women" (as if she had even been born back then). Makes her so called feistiness sound a little off, doesn't it?
She also never shuts up about how goodlooking she is. Yes, Martine, you're beautiful. Well, I think so anyway: you have a very lovely face. As do millions of women the world over. Deal with it and get over your self-admiration. Have some fun being yourself instead of yakking on about it. Why waste your talents worrying about your looks, particularly when you have nothing to worry about on that score? The so-called 'songs' you wasted your lovely singing voice on, though... now that's another matter.

I like her, why not, though I don't know her as a singer. I loved her in Love Actually. She looks good and as for her judging on Soapstar Superstar, so what, Sharon Osbourne is no authority on singing either and this is not a big singing competition and there is no need for Simon Cowell.

Lovely , very pretty - before she got the teeth done, she looked angelic and her mouth was beautiful. Don't know how much she paid to get the railings done but they still look awful. A bit like Jodie Marsh's

Well what has she really done since Eastenders? Her first single was good but no follow up and then just drifting around in Gucci clothes and doing not very much!

I think the description singer/actress is doing her favours!
SHes got a voice that sounds like a wolf sicking up its own hind legs, and as for acting, what was the last thing she was in that she didnt pull a sickie on?
Dot cottons cool tho..
