The New Henry VIII: Is He "Beheading" Hot?

When I first learned about Henry VIII in school, he was a mean, ugly guy (resembling an evil version of Mr. French) who had two of his six wives beheaded. (Everyone remembers Anne Boleyn; no remembers wife #5 Kathryn Howard.)

Well it turns out that Henry VIII is still mean. But, ladies, he ain't ugly. Both Showtime's The Tudors and the motion picture The Other Boleyn Girl have set the record straight on Henry's looks.

In his youth, Henry was described as being so beautiful 'as would have befitted a maiden'. By the time he died at age 57, the 6'3" Henry weighed well over 400 pounds and was crippled with dropsy and gout.

Yeah right. No one looked like Eric Bana in the 1500's. You were lucky if you had all your teeth.

Stupid yanks!!!

He probably wasn't so ugly as described in history books, but certainly not beautiful. XP

what is your point?

[azikbear]

you will have to resemble either scarlett johansson or natalie portman (who have the roles in the motion picture "The Other Boleyn Girl") to be able to have that 33% chance and BTW they are both jewish
