Great pic, Meg! Congrats on the continuing press coverage!

(When you’re all fab and famous, we can say we “knew you when…”)

5 Margaret 10.07.06 at 11:44 pm

I heart BUST, mostly for the “Boobtique”.

Love how the hammie is looking right at Meg, daring her to find fault.

6 orangepeacock 10.07.06 at 11:46 pm

Dude, I saw the article a week or two ago and commented! Congratumalations!

7 S 10.07.06 at 11:52 pm

OMG! So cool!
what’s the prognosis, doctor?

8 Brak_Silverbone 10.07.06 at 11:54 pm

Meg, you are SO fabulous it’s not funny. Nice polka dots! Cute hammie, too. :)

9 Villeline 10.07.06 at 11:58 pm

“Meg Frost’s CuteOverload.com is the bomb”, it says!

Congratulations, Meg! :D

10 elizabeth 10.08.06 at 12:00 am

way to go, meg!!!
:)

11 tasha 10.08.06 at 12:01 am

That’s totally not what I had imagined you looked like. Not that I imagined about you a lot, it’s just not the face I pictured…

Neat!

12 Meg 10.08.06 at 12:11 am

What were you imaginingk?

13 Woods Walker 10.08.06 at 12:20 am

Meg,Nice to see your face on the site and congratulations on some more well deserved recognition.-Woods Walker

14 Amie 10.08.06 at 12:26 am

Hurray on more site status. :]

15 Jan Spencer 10.08.06 at 12:40 am

Wow, very cool! MORE publicity the better. Hey, I talk about ya on the radio here in Tampa Bay… on Sundays. :)

16 TPK 10.08.06 at 1:11 am

NICE photo! Great work, keep it up.

17 Freddy 10.08.06 at 1:12 am

Slight misunderstanding here. The tiny ham overlord (think Hitchiker’s Guide…) is inspecting Meg for cuteness. She passes with flying dots! He sez– “Ooh la la, La Mehg.”

Seriously, Meg has raised the previously obscure art form of photo captioning to a genuine art. “Nobody does it better…” (singing).

Kudos, Cute Overlady, kudos…

18 jaypo 10.08.06 at 1:21 am

Damn! I saw this issue today and almost picked it up thinking, Is this the one with the CO spotlight… I can always go back.

Here’s to you, Meg, once again–and not for the last time! Meg=CO.

19 sandy p. 10.08.06 at 2:09 am

Oy! Way to go! I thought the same…about not having imagined you to look like the way you do. Anyhoo, now I know what you look like I can stop picturing a pair of dismembered hands and eyes going through the submissions……..very cute photo of you and the hammie pie btw!

20 little miao 10.08.06 at 2:24 am

Yay, we get to see Meg at work!!

21 Another Angela 10.08.06 at 2:28 am

Right on! Bust is a great magazine. Congratulations as CO takes over the world!

22 Darcy 10.08.06 at 3:08 am

Wow! That’s one cute photo!

23 kimmy 10.08.06 at 3:28 am

so great to see you!!!

24 Wisefool 10.08.06 at 4:20 am

Right on!

So…was this a hammy you already knew? Or is it like a free fluff ball with each photoshoot? Man. Famous people get all the cool swag.

25 Meg 10.08.06 at 4:38 am

So it turns out that PetCo has a 15-day return policy for all pocket pets. I was planning on purchasing the ham and returning him (though he woulda been too famous for his cage) and lo-and-behold, the photographer’s assistant wanted to keep her!

It all ended happily. I was jealous, ’cause it was a sweet ham.

26 Another Angela 10.08.06 at 5:18 am

Don’t fall for the hammies Meg, go for rats–affectionate, smart, wonderful, except for the specialized veterinary care often required ;) You’ll never go back to cats and dogs.

27 Stephers 10.08.06 at 5:35 am

Meg, you look like a real pro Cuteologist in that photo. Congrats!

28 Martha in Washington 10.08.06 at 8:00 am

Congrats Meg. I should get a copy so I can show my family and friends. They all just roll their eyes anytime (and it happens ALOT) I start a conversation with “Today on Cute Overload there was this…” I think they think I’m addicted–which I am. But who wants to get over this addiction?!

29 Tiia 10.08.06 at 8:46 am

Oh, oh no, fun to see your face finally :) congrats!

30 Jem 10.08.06 at 11:06 am

Heh. Adorable!

31 Subhangi 10.08.06 at 1:00 pm

CONGRATS!!! That’s really cute!!!

32 NebraskaErin 10.08.06 at 3:07 pm

Aw, that’s awesome!

33 book_monstercats 10.08.06 at 3:48 pm

Brill! As a knitter, I hope to stitch’n'bitch soon. Great to see what you look like at last, Meg.

34 sabrina 10.08.06 at 4:04 pm

hey what happened to the other post that I was first to comment! Gah! It was here yesterday now it’s changed to *this*! Mind you it was a bit odd, a report from april or summat. oh well lol.

35 Janni 10.08.06 at 6:12 pm

Congratulations, Meg! And thank you!

36 Denise in Nebraska 10.08.06 at 6:19 pm

So, does anyone else see the irony in being in “BUST” magazine, when C.O. is known for its “CATS IN RACKS”? Coincidence?? No. I think not.

37 Jessie 10.08.06 at 6:33 pm

Haha, I imagined you with brown long hair :) Funny how everyone created a picture of you in their minds :) Keep up the good work Meg! x

38 Kate 10.08.06 at 7:44 pm

Meg! You’re all gorgeous and everything!

39 Mel 10.08.06 at 8:00 pm

Meg, you’re anerable!

40 Pigu 10.09.06 at 12:54 am

You’re physically attractive!

41 PuppyMomma 10.09.06 at 2:37 am

But that hammie isn’t cute! The ‘other’ meg is though. Mazel tov on your Bust breakthrough!

42 Theo 10.09.06 at 3:39 am

Heh, Meg… reading these comments, I can’t help but think “Only now, at the bitter end, do they understand.” PWND.

(…and Darth Ham is CLEARLY saying, “What is thy bidding, O my master?”)

Muuhuhuahahahaaaaa.

43 Adam 10.09.06 at 6:44 am

Oh! I get it! You’re inspecting the hammie with a magnifying glass, not trying to set him on fire. Now it makes sense!

44 JRae 10.09.06 at 8:21 am

Great pic!!!

I always imagined you as Asian-looking, Meg. Is that racist? Yes, yes it is. (hangs head in shame)

As Freddy said, you take captioning to the next level!! Keep up the good work! :)

45 Jenni Miller 10.09.06 at 10:50 am

WOO HOO!!!!!! it was too much fun!

46 Snuffles 10.09.06 at 12:31 pm

Meg you are a hottie! Plus your website makes me smile more than almost anything else. Are you single?

47 Snuffles 10.09.06 at 12:34 pm

Meg you are a hottie! Plus your website makes me smile more than almost anything else. Are you single?

48 Theo 10.09.06 at 2:42 pm

49 Rikki 10.09.06 at 2:46 pm

Love you, love Bust, and loved your article in Bust.

50 Kate 10.09.06 at 2:49 pm

Meg, you really remind me of Edie Falco (from The Sopranos)…

One day people will give you equally huge, shiny, prestigious awards :D

51 Theo 10.09.06 at 2:55 pm

…you mean, like, oh, a Webby, for instance?
;)

52 Lisa 10.09.06 at 10:35 pm

It’s time to cute, sorry, take over the world. We have CO bookmarked in all computers in my workplace here in Finland. There would be no life without.

53 WickedWendy 10.10.06 at 12:12 am

You’re anerable Meg!!! Good going once again!

54 j.g. 10.10.06 at 1:44 pm

55 Maile 10.16.06 at 4:18 am
