Taco Bell Denise Debate Ends Here

Unattractive?

Dear readers, we have a problem here at BS. If you listened to the Handsome Hour from this week, you know of what I speak. It seems the very lovely and talented Boilerdowd feels that the girls in the currently on-so-often-it-makes-me-want-to-break-things Taco Bell commercial "look like dudes." He is particularly hard on "Denise," who has a terrific smile and is attractive to any other male who looks at her.

Yes, this bothers me. Mainly because Boilerdowd's age has advanced to the point where, apparently, his eyesight is so bad that he can no longer identify an attractive female.

But I am not one to overly quibble with a man's taste in women. Sometimes you're just not feeling it. What I do have a problem with is that he refers to "Denise" as "looking like a dude." I know he's spent a lot of time in all-male dormitories, but still....

Anyway, the guys at the site "Thunder Treats" (yeah, I don't know) did some research and learned that Denise is actually Nicole Hayden and they managed to score an interview with her. They also posted the photo above and a couple others.

So, BS readers.... who's right here? Does Denise look like a dude? Or is she at least somewhat attractive?

If I was a guy... or one that prefers the same sex- I would do her. Maybe it's the Taco Bell outfit that takes away from her looks. Can't say I have ever seen a guy that looks good in a Taco Bell uniform. Now, there was the Blimpie Boy in college...

I'd hit it.

Please remember that BoilerDowd really likes the cartoon eSurance gal, Erin.

I would take Ms. Hayden over a cartoon any day.

Would you roll around on the floor with her and kill her bird? J Money?

That's got to be you, right? LOL! Good story.

If that's what a dude looks like then I'm suddenly very confused...

Tim said...

According to
IMDB, her real name is

Nikki Danielle Moore

Kevin- the first thing I thought was of our own j money.

What's the verdict, J?

Robert said...

I think her and the other cashier girl that work in that commercial are very hot. No they look nothing like men.

J Money said...

Kevin/Collin -- I can neither confirm nor deny.

Tim -- Yes, according to that interview I linked to, she changed her name a number of times.... if you want to be in SAG, you can't have the same name as anyone else, so she changed it to her boyfriend's last name at the time. Freaking smart. Then she changed it again. Weird. Sounds smart.

I thought they were kinda cute ...thing that makes me mad is that those girls would never work in a taco bell

I've longed for a Taco Bell that has these type of quality looking women. Its sad that they represent factiously underpaid minimum wage works.

I also rant on the reality of a dude, Jon Gruden look-a-like, really trying to run a scam with a worker over what maybe 35 cents...

I hate bad commericials.

boilerdowd said...

The girl in the commercial doesn't look like the hottie in the photo.

Might be the same girl/guy, then she's a twoface (a la Seinfeld). Or maybe, she's one of those women that really needs the right make-up, clothing and whatever else to look good.

I can honestly say, I love the looks of Ms. Hayden in that photo. It's a damned shame this isn't how I was introduced to her.

Erin ESurance, on the other hand always looks great and never has a bad day nor has been caught in a visor of any kind- TBell, or otherwise.

I know if my hair and nails don't get "did", I'm nothing special. But watch out when I'm gussied up. Perhaps the same is true with Nick/Nikki/Nicole?

boilerdowd said...

One more thing- that photo has been heavily-airbrushed. The commercial, sadly for her, has not been.

If you need to learn about how much a difference airbrushing can make, do a youtube search on photoshop airbrushing.

It's pretty incredible. They can make a smokin' hot piece of tail like Tim look ugly. Amazing I tell you.

J Money said...

You've lost this battle, sir. She looks good in the commercial as well as the photo I posted and it's not "heavily-airbrushed." She's cute, which is all I said from the start.

It's very telling to me how much you want a cute girl to be a dude. Very telling.

boilerdowd said...

Next time I see you, I'll be wearing a TBell visor and a pony tail...it'll drive you nuts!!

Funboy.

Ross McLochness said...

She's no Laura Dore.

Bless you, Twitter.

blr1426 said...

Even in the commercial she looks great. Maybe not "movie star" hot, but certainly "way too hot to ever be found behing the counter of a taco bell" hot.

Unknown said...

so, did you buy her a new parakeet? Or was there no redemption?
