Learn To Flirt Like A Pro

Flirting 101: What works; which celebs do it well; when does it go too far?

by Marnie Hanel

Tango: Which celebrities are good flirts?

Eve: Cameron Diaz, Brittany Murphy, Debra Messing.

Tango: What about guys?

Eve: Matthew McConaughey, Ashton Kutcher. I would love to know all the things that Demi did when she flirted with Ashton.

Tango: Why do you think flirters have a bad reputation?

Eve: Because we live in a culture that has a love/hate relationship with anything that’s sexual. We love it, we love it, we love it. We condemn it, condemn it, condemn it.

Tango: What makes a bad flirt?

Eve: A bad flirt is somebody who really puts out a heavy sexual message and then doesn’t deliver. You shouldn’t promise more than you can deliver. First, do no harm.

Tango: So, do you believe in playing hard to get?

Eve: I think it can help. It is true, all of those things your mother said to you: “Don’t wear your heart on your sleeve.” I am also a big believer in: “Chase him until he catches you.” My mother said that to me. Her idea was: Set your sights on some guy and chase him, but somehow make it seem to him like he’s doing the pursuing.

Tango: That is a very Southern idea!

Eve: Oh, Southerners can flirt circles around the girls in the Northeast. I think girls in the Northeast are actually handicapped. They are like the anti-flirt, like Ali McGraw’s character in Love Story. But that’s a kind of flirting.

This article could’ve been interesting. It quickly became inane. And a woman who marries rich older men, particularly 4 of them in sequence as they literally die off, is not a flirt. She is euphamistically referred to as a gold digger.
