Captivated By Carolyn

November 12, 1996 | ISSUE 30•14

Carolyn Bessette, John F. Kennedy Jr.'s new bride, has captivated all of America with her beauty and style. What do you think of the woman who's being called "the new Jackie Kennedy"?

  • Carolyn is so beautiful. She must, like, go to Glamour Shots every day.

  • President Lincoln's son, John F. Lincoln Jr., married a girl named Mary Bessette. They ended up getting killed on a steamboat. Beware, I say!

  • Sure, she's got the poise, the grace and the looks, but how good is she at catching chunks of her husband's brains in the back of a speeding convertible?

    Roger Thewlkes

  • I love her! In fact, I just finished reading her new autobiography, I Am A Spoiled, Privileged, Vacuous Human Barbie Doll.

    Christine Girolamo

  • What an elegant, glamorous woman. That JFK Jr. sure did pick an amazing lady to lose his virginity to.

    Sean Singleton

  • Finally, America has a clearly defined alpha male and alpha female to defer to. I'm so relieved!
