Karen Gillan says she's not too sexy for prime time

Too big for the pond

Tue, 15/06/2010 - 15:55 by Harry Bow

The Karen Gillan backlash has started as critics claim the ginger Doctor Who star is ruining our telly viewing by being too sexy... (See more Karen Gillan pictures to confirm one way or the other).

Talking to Radio Times, Karen claimed she has been getting gip over her legs (mind out the gutter), saying:

"I guess there was a bit of an uproar and I really didn't see that coming.

"I just don't get it with the skirts. It's what any girl on the street is wearing.

"I mean, Amy's not a schoolgirl, she's 21, pretty much the same age as me, and we all wear stuff like this."

"Feminism is not the issue any more, not for me, anyway."

It's not Karen's fault that her pins are too long for most skirts. This 21-year-old, however, has no excuse - cover yourself up like it's the 1850s all over again, please.

She is peng with a Capital P , the new Audrey Hepburn.

No, you are missing nothing Elbow. I completely agree with you and have no idea what all the fuss is about either.
huxylady Wed, 16/06/2010 - 10:43
Huxy, that comment was on the end of a bad day yesterday and i guess i just dont get why people are loving this girl. Am i missing something?
elbow Wed, 16/06/2010 - 09:02

She delivers every single line in a 'knowing' way that makes me want to lash out. That's why I've stopped watching even though I think Matt Smith is great.

The child who played her as a little girl was a million times better. But didn't have the legs, eh?

I'm so fucking bored with hearing about her, she's played Dr Who's assistant in less than one fucking series, now suddenly she's BAFTA material.

And she ain't that spectacularly looking

Is that supposed to be her best "anti-sexy" face in that first pic?

"Feminism is not the issue any more, not for me, anyway."

Kind of is the issue, though. You wouldn't even have to defend yourself to the Radio fucking Times (of all publications) if you were a bloke in the same position.

Stella - stop that now, I know what you're doing.

I love Gingers, they smell great
banquosghost Tue, 15/06/2010 - 16:48
Oops, that's indeed Alex Kingston - also sort of gingery, but definitely not Karen Gillan.
Harry Bow Tue, 15/06/2010 - 16:43
Pic 2 isn't her, it's the woman who got her tits out in that Croupier film with wotsit out of Capital City in the 80s.
I should get a job with HM, I know so little about celebs...
But isn't La Gillan lovely :-)
