OK, slightly mixed emotions here: despite the fact that Jordan (IMHO) should already have the nickname "Dumb-BELLE", there ain't too much to complain about (figuratively speaking) regarding her assets, and these things are an insult to her figure - they've got SQUARE bumps, after all! I know the German Railways had a class of diesel they nicknamed "Lollas", owing to the rounded front, evidently reminding them of the curves of Gina Lollabrigida, but at least they were ROUNDED! I'll stick to Dumbos....
