As far as not liking her for taking advantage of her relationship with George, since I'm new to following him quite this closely, I have to say, has he been with anyone who hasn't used him for publicity?

Only one I can think of initially would have to be Celine. After the breakup - maybe others used her association with him to try to capitalize on the work she did for them - i.e. the modeling.

But at the moment, can't think of anyone else he's dated seriously that didn't try to make something out of her association with him.

Sorry, the picture got stretched a bit. I don't think she looks so bad here.

Fashion fails ... Laura and Lisa

By AYEESHA WALSH

Published: 12th February 2013

THE Elle Style Awards failed to live up to their name when an array of celebrites turned out to the bash looking less than red carpet ready.
The event was left severely lacking in the style stakes on Monday night as many big names on the guest list failed to impress with their wardrobe selections.

Presenters Laura Whitmore and Lisa Snowdon couldn't salvage any credibility in their pantomime style dresses.

Laura flashed some leg in what could only be described as a pinata-inspired textured black and yellow design, while Lisa opted for a frumpy monochrome satin and lace creation which did little to show off her slender physique.

right
not so bad
but bad shoes for sure
maybe a not so large skirt
would have been better

by playfuldeb Wed 13 Feb 2013, 09:35

I like Lisa's dress. I think the camera angle is really off and makes the dress look worse than it is. Also, Lisa is putting weight on as she ages, but I think she is aging gracefully. She's still a looker!

by melbert Wed 13 Feb 2013, 12:45

I really like Lisa's dress. Not the other one so much.

by Maggy Wed 13 Feb 2013, 15:13

She looks lovely!

by silly girl Wed 13 Feb 2013, 15:21

Her dress isn't bad. I wouldn't have gone with beige shoes.

What's the deal with yellow dress.....very weird.

by OofOof Thu 14 Feb 2013, 02:46

On the actual site, Lisa's dress doesn't look so bad. She looks like a fun person to be around. That yellow dress should be burned! The designer who came up with that sucker needs to spend some time in purgatory.

I don't know Lucy...seems like everyone in the entertainment world today cleanses. Let's hope she's the odd one out! If she doesn't cleanse then I'll like her even more.

by lucy Thu 14 Feb 2013, 06:17

She seems to have a good personality, has worked hard to get where she has in life, and looks like she is aging well.

by OofOof Thu 14 Feb 2013, 06:22

Has to be hard to be a woman in the entertainment industry, after the age of 32. So unfair! Men in their 50's and 60's are still cast in leading roles while women after the age of 35 are lucky to get romantic leads. Drives me absolutely crazy!

Sty-le queen: Lisa Snowdon makes a rasher decision to snuggle up to a micro pig while wearing a designer dress at TLC launch

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

25 April 2013

For years, Lisa Snowdon could rely on George Clooney to be her arm candy at red carpet events.

But on Thursday night, she was seen cosying up to a cute micro pig when she arrived at London member's bar Sketch for the launch of a new TV channel.

Lisa, 41, was at the TLC event looking gorgeous in a sleeveless Matthew Williamson dress which showed off plenty of tanned skin.

Cute plus one: Lisa Snowdon snuggles the spotty pig at the TLC Launch party on Thursday night

The Capital FM presenter is to host a show on the new channel, which promises to provide as much exciting real life programming as its American counterpart.

Lisa will front Your Style In His Hands which will see her help four husbands and boyfriends shred their partners' clothes and completely restyle them.

The channel is most famed for giving the world Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, the spin off show from the controversial Tantrums and Tiaras.

Pleased as pork: Lisa grinned as she held the dozing piglet, which looked similar to Honey Boo Boo's pet

So cute: Lisa looked thrilled to be getting a chance to hold the cute little porcine

In the show, the young beauty queen wannabe has a pet micropig called Glitzy, and the organisers of Thursday's event surely wanted to evoke images of the friendship between the little girl and hog by bringing a similar creature to meet the party's special guests.
It could be said that Lisa made a 'rasher' decision to hold the unpredictable swine so near to her expensive frock.

The real thing: Honey Boo Boo and Glitzy the pig are the stars of one of TLC's programmes

But if she was worried about the big catching the delicate thread of her bright coloured frock, it didn't show.

Lisa looked like she was on cloud nine as she snuggled the adorable little swine, and gazed adoringly at him or her while they rested in her arms.

Cradled: Lisa beamed with joy as she held the adorable black and white swine

Without her friend: Lisa managed to put the little pig down for a few minutes so she could pose normally

As well as Lisa's new show, UK viewers will get to watch re-runs of The Golden Girls, the US version of Mistresses and a shopping programme hosted by Holly Valance.

TLC will be available on Sky (channel 125), Virgin Media (167), BT Vision (875) and YouView on the TalkTalk Player from 30th April.

by Lakin460 Fri 26 Apr 2013, 15:58

Does anyone think it's 'coincidental that she snuggles up with a pig and George had Max the pig for a beloved pet? I mean, is there some kind of sublimal message being sent here or am I just reading too much into it........

by Katiedot Fri 26 Apr 2013, 16:24

I think possibly you're reading too much into it - George had the pig when she was dating him so she's well acquainted with Max.

The article says the pig was chosen by the organisers because it's similar to the pig Honey Boo Boo has. And if you're wondering who Honey Boo Boo is, I can tell you that apparently she's the 'star' of probably the most famous show that TLC have at the moment.

by playfuldeb Fri 26 Apr 2013, 20:43

I find it sad that the media still has to plug George's name in there when articles about Lisa are posted. I mean, how long have they been separated now? Time to let Lisa start getting credit for her work and her alone as an individual.

by Lakin460 Fri 26 Apr 2013, 20:46

Man! She looks GOOD for 40something! Better than Stacy, IMO.

by playfuldeb Fri 26 Apr 2013, 20:54

by OofOof Fri 26 Apr 2013, 21:21

She looks GREAT! Wow! Gives me hope. She at least looks like she has a personality. And I agree with Deb. Geez, how long after she splits with George will she still be identified as George Clooney's former girlfriend? Must get really irritating!

It doesn't sound like she does talk about George until someone asks her about him. At least that's what she's said in interviews on this site. I don't think she's still trying to use him for her work. It sounds like it actually has kind of hurt her in the end.

Lisa Snowdon: "I’ll always be famous for being George Clooney’s ex...it'll be written on my grave"
2 May 2013 00:01
The model has now morphed into a style guru-cum-agony aunt in a new TV makeover show with a twist
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
She's a successful model, actress, TV presenter, breakfast show DJ and Strictly Come Dancing finalist.

She’s an ambassador for two charities has launched her own jewellery business, designed a swimwear range and stars in Marks & Spencer’s ad campaign.

Now Lisa Snowdon has morphed into a style guru-cum-agony aunt in a new TV makeover show with a twist.

But down-to earth Lisa is under no illusions about how the world will ultimately remember her. “I’m always going to be George Clooney’s ex,” she says with a shrug and a wry smile.

“I sometimes think it will be written on my tombstone – ‘George Clooney once dated Lisa Snowdon’.

“I will have to do something super-radical for people to forget about it. Goodness knows... I’m definitely too old for Prince Harry!”

Lisa had an on-off five-year relationship with Clooney after meeting him on a Martini ad in 2000.

At first the media attention was overwhelming and she resented people suggesting she was dating the star to help her career.

But now she laughs it off.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
“It really doesn’t bother me any more,” she says. “I’m so used to the ‘George thing’ that I take it all with a pinch of salt. Of course I understand the fascination. George is fit, women love him, yet he’s still a guys’ guy, so people are fascinated by him.

“People actually ask me what he was like in bed... usually after a few drinks have made them brave.

“They are like ‘Seriously, though, how was it? What was he like?’”

Now, I’d promised myself I wouldn’t do this but... “Seriously then, Lisa, how was it? What was he like?”

Her green eyes sparkle and the 41-year-old grins: “I never tell.”

Lisa was spotted by a modelling scout while pole-dancing at a London rave when she was 19. She became one of Britain’s top fashion models, graced the covers of Vogue and Marie Claire, and fronted ad campaigns for the likes of Gucci, Lynx deodorant and Kellogg’s Special K.

Lisa was also a judge and host of Britain’s Next Top Model and in 2008 took over from Denise Van Outen as Johnny Vaughan’s co-presenter on London’s Capital radio breakfast show. She still hosts the hit show with Dave Berry.

When we meet she is disarmingly open, warm and great company.

And two decades in the fashion industry have given her a unique eye for style and taught her how clothes can both reveal and transform a woman’s body image.

So she’s the perfect choice to host Your Style In His Hands, a makeover show on new entertainment channel TLC.

A string of brave women who feel frumpy and glum agree to let their husbands chuck out their old clothes, shoes, bags and accessories and buy them an entirely new £5,000 wardrobe to bring back their old sparkle.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
PA

Isn’t it all a bit misogynistic, letting blokes glam up partners who’ve “let themselves go”? And don’t they go for a lot of short skirts and high heels?

“It’s actually a very clever concept and goes much deeper than you think,” explains Lisa. “For whatever reason these women have got stuck in a style rut. Yes, they may be new mums, or working all the hours God sends and they just want to get into their old comfy clothes – the comfort blanket.

“But it still chips away at their self-esteem and the boyfriends and husbands have noticed and think ‘I want her to be happy again.’ They just want to find the women they fell in love with again.

“The women are understandably horrified at the prospect of what the men will chose – and they do actually make some hideous mistakes.

“Someone got a slashed Rihanna top with torn hot pants and someone bought a pair of size 8 white satin wedding shoes. I asked ‘Are they for when she divorces you and marries someone else?’ But I help teach them what will suit their partners and show off their figures without resorting to hot pants and boob tubes.”

After watching the show I’m won over
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Some lovely, genuine couples bravely bare their issues and fashion faux pas to help their relationships. And Lisa proves to be a perfect cross between Gok Wan and a marriage guidance counsellor.

"Don’t get me wrong,” she says, “I wouldn’t dress a certain way just to please a guy.

“Men have tried to tell me how to dress and bought me clothes in the past. Sometimes they got it right, sometimes horribly, horribly wrong. They never get underwear right – too skimpy up top, and it’s always red, or red and black...very obvious.”

I can’t imagine gorgeous George ever bought anything tarty – but I don’t ask.

He’ll probably be tuning into the show though as the pair are still friends. When she came third in Strictly in 2008 he rang her and said: “You should have been first.”

She has also said in a previous interview that he’s “not the marrying kind”.

And for the moment neither is Lisa.

In the past she has dated comedian David Walliams, model Paul Sculfor and footballer Jay Bothroyd, but is currently single, and insists her biological clock isn’t ticking very loudly.

She says: “When you pass 40 people assume you must be panicking and getting desperate about starting a family. But I’m really not.

“My sister Joanna has two children,” – she shows me pictures on her phone – “they are the cutest things in the world and I love being an auntie.

"I get the best of both worlds. I have full-on time with them and when they’ve worn me out I go “Bye!”.

“I have a great family, loads of great friends and I honestly don’t think there is anything missing from my life.

"I love it and I don’t want to change anything. Maybe in 10 years’ time I might feel different – but not now.”

Lisa Snowdon: I’d prefer to play on my phone than have sex with George Clooney

Wednesday 22 May 2013

Exclusive: George Clooney doesn’t sound like much fun in the sack after his ex Lisa Snowdon let slip she’d prefer to play Angry Birds on her phone than have sex with the silver fox.

The model unwittingly made her barb at her former Hollywood flame when her Capital Radio breakfast co-host Dave Berry grilled her on a new survey that revealed most people would prefer to go without sex for a week than without their mobile.

‘What would you prefer? Playing on an app or quality time with George Clooney?’ Berry cheekily asked.

With no hesitation the 41-year-old M&S face quipped: ‘It’s a no-brainer. It’s got to be Angry Birds all the way. [laughs]’.

‘I’m pretty addicted to my phone,’ the 1.8m (5ft 10in) tall beauty confessed but admitted she gets in a huff when her lovers prioritise their texts over cuddling her.

She told Berry: ‘I have however got rid of a boyfriend because he’s been obsessed with his phone and I’ve also sacked somebody else off because he’s been obsessed with video game and played them all through the night and never came to bed for special cuddles.’

by melbert Thu 23 May 2013, 12:46

And she wonders why she'll always be referred to as George's ex?

by lelacorb Thu 23 May 2013, 12:59

Lisa Snowdon plagued by George Clooney past

TRY AS she might nobody will let LISA SNOWDON forget about her time with Hollywood heart-throb GEORGE CLOONEY.

The pair dated on and off for five years from 2000 and she says they are still in touch. “It doesn’t bother me any more. At the end of the day he is George Clooney so people are going to want to know,” Lisa, 41, tells new! magazine.
The former lads’ mag favourite adds: “I haven’t seen him for a while but we text[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]. He’s a good guy – there are no bad vibes so we are mates.”

Lisa Snowdon cooks Christmas treats with dad

Date: 30 December 2013

Lisa Snowdon loves cooking up delicious treats with her father Nigel over the Christmas period.

Lisa Snowdon loves cooking with her father Christmas.

The 41-year-old model enjoys making some festive treats with her Dad, Nigel, as part of her traditional Christmas time with her family, as well as overeating and drinking too much.

Speaking to BANG Showbiz, she said: "I can't imagine not being here for the festive period. I traditionally always go to my dad's on Christmas Eve. My sister will come and my other sister will come the next day with the babies. We'll all have breakfast the next day together with my nan and my dad. We're are just altogether.

"He's a bit of a legend my dad, Nige. I cook as well with him. I kind of do the Brussels and the roasted vegetables with him. So yeah lots of cooking, lots of fighting over keeping the turkey nice and moist and if it's too cooked. I just get involved and get under his feet really which causes lots of problems. But Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without some kind of fight. Then we just eat too much, standard, fall asleep really uncomfortable in front of the telly. Just watch loads of wicked movies and drink too much."

The Capital FM presenter - who dated actor George Clooney for five years from 2000 - was also looking forward to spending the festive period with a new special someone.

She recently said: "I'm not single. I'm seeing Santa. It takes the pressure off a little bit you know. It's not like I was like, 'I'm never going out with anyone famous.' It's just how things work. He's not in the business but he's around the business."

by LornaDoone Tue 31 Dec 2013, 16:22

Nice for her that's she won't be alone.

Interesting though that she will be forever connected as a past Clooney girlfriend.

Reminds me of that scene in Notting Hill when Julie Roberts' character notes that every time an article is written about her that particular picture (of her opening the door at Hugh Grants home in her underwear) will have been filed and then dragged out and used.

Same with these gals. That notation "an ex-girlfriend of George Clooney" will be noted in the article no matter what achievements she may have made on her own since then.

Of course, that notation also is what may get them the article in the first place because putting Clooney's name in it makes it more likely that it will be noted and their article linked to online. More eyeballs on the page means a higher hit rate and potentially higher advert fees.

So I guess it's a win win if the gal is promoting something, right?

sure!

Lisa Snowdon sticks by her actor boyfriend and refuses to press charges after he attacked her in the street

By Leon Watson

Published: 08:52, 1 June 2014

Lisa Snowdon's actor boyfriend has admitted attacking her in the street, it was revealed today. Adereti Monney, 38, was accused of pushing the radio and TV star up against a wall in Camden, north London, The Sun on Sunday reported. Miss Snowdon, 42, reportedly did not press charges and has stuck by him. But the February attack was witnessed by a police officer who reported it.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Argument: Lisa Snowdon was reportedly assaulted in a London street in the early hours by her boyfriend Adereti Monney (pictured together last week)

Monney - also known as Tim Wade - later appeared at Highbury Magistrates' Court and admitted 'assault by beating'. He was given a conditional discharge and ordered to pay £100. A spokesman told the MailOnline: 'They had had an argument which led to a very minor scuffle in the street.

'At no point did Lisa press charges or indeed wish to press charges and the couple have moved on from the incident.'

Guilty: The actor later admitted 'assault by beating' after pushing the radio star, out on Friday, up against a wall in Camden, The Sun on Sunday has revealed

The Capital FM DJ is thought to have started dating Andereti - who has appeared in films Knife Edge and Rollin' With the Nines - in January and the incident is said to have happened a month later. The couple were last pictured together on Tuesday of last week when they attended a private view of Marc Chagall: Exhibition of Masterpieces at the capital's Opera Gallery.

Dating since January: 'They were on their way home when they got into an argument. He pushed her against a wall and was seen doing so by a policeman' a source said

Miss Snowdon and Monney were coordinated in matching white tops, with the former looking chic in a blazer and pale, flared jeans. The Weekend Kitchen host opened up about her life and dating will.i.am's communications manager last month, telling the Sunday Express: 'My weekend begins on a Friday afternoon with a massage. It’s great to get myself realigned after a busy week. Afterwards, I head home and get ready to go out with my girlfriends.

'We usually have champagne or cocktails first and then eat at Coya on Piccadilly. Sometimes we finish the evening off at Shoreditch House or dancing at Cirque le Soir in Soho.' Monney is also head of communications and lifestyle at will.i.am's fashion and technology brand i.am+.

Trust me if this is his make up he will not change and men like him can be very dangerous. It is not always easy to get away from them. They usually don't let you just leave. God bless her and hope she has enough inner strength and friends to get away. If this is how he is in public, how might he be in private when they spat.

WEDDING PLANS
[size=36]Lisa Snowdon reveals she might elope after getting engaged to George Smart[/size]

The entrepreneur popped the question over Christmas but the couple are yet to make any plans for the big day which will probably take place next year
Yorkshire born entrepreneur George, 37, popped the question to Lisa over the festive period last year.
Lisa told us at the time: “George proposed on the Saturday before Christmas and it was such a lovely surprise – I had absolutely no idea he was going to do it!
“He did it at home – it was just us, it was really low-key and completely unexpected.
“He chose the most beautiful diamond ring, which I love, and amazingly it fits me perfectly! It was such a great way to start the New Year.”
The I’m A Celeb star added: “I feel very content about everything and I’m in a good place.
“George is a really lovely man. He’s selfless, honest, kind, wise, calm and thoughtful. The list is endless. I’m very lucky!”
And on Valentine’s Day she paid tribute to her new fiancé with a collage of them looking loved up.
She gushed: "Happy Valentines to my love @i_smarticus Thank you for your patience, understanding, humour, the belly laughs, your insight, intelligence for believing in me and for loving me unconditionally and in turn enabling me to love myself and finally and best of all, for asking me to marry you. I love you."
