She never smiles, and wears white gloves. That gives her a bit of a Babs Jansen vibe. That’s not a bad thing.  Of course Babs couldn’t beat you at arm wrestling, unlike the eight ball queen here. She’s like some kind of Nordic Sophia Loren. She also poses for van murals. That’s double hot.

The last couple of minutes of the video drag a bit. I wish that Chris Melling spoke English, so I knew what he was saying. There’s an outside possibility that he was telling the interviewer where the referee lives.
