CSI: Crime Scene Investigation has been a hit television show for CBS since 2000. It has spawned numerous spinoffs, including a New York and a Miami version. And with the show’s popularity, its stars have also grown in popularity, including the actress Jorja Fox, who plays the character Sara Sidle on the show.
What is interesting about Jorja fox is how she has become a sex symbol, appearing on fansites and wallpapers surprisingly scantily-clad, despite the fact that she is the antithesis of what we might describe as a Las Vegas beauty. There is no way that anyone would mistake Jorja Fox for a chorus girl. Though she is slim, she is small-breasted and has a masculine face characterized by slender lips and a firm chin. She is also visibly older than the feminine ideal of beauty, and many shots on the show accentuate the wrinkles and bags around her eyes and her heavy smile-lines.
This leads us to wonder what exactly makes a woman a sex symbol. Is the ideal of beauty changing, starting us into a period of androgynous ideals such as seems to come up periodically (as in the 1920s and 1970s)? Or are we really sold on the character, such that once we are convinced that we know this woman from watching her go through so many crises and revelations on television?
If either of these are true, it could have profound consequences for the cosmetic surgery industry.
Jorja fox has a nice look about her. Masculine, think thats abit strong but she does look a bit boyish.
