Think you Hot? Try BeautifulPeople.com

Forget the mirror; there is a new way of gauging your hotness in town. Apply BeautifulPeople.com and if you make the cut and remain there for some months then you have a reason to flaunt and floss to the less endowed.

BeautifulPeople.com is a dating site that markets itself as an elite community for beautiful people with a "strict ban on ugly people”. It prides itself as "the largest network of attractive people in the world". An "elite online club, where every member works the door" -- that is, users can join only after enough members vote them "beautiful" during the 48 hours after their profile is uploaded.”

"Is it elitist? Yes, it is, because our members want it to be," Greg Hodge, founder member, said when the company started out in 2005. "Is it lookist? Yes, it is, because our members want it to be. Is it PC? No, it's not, but it's honest."

And on this site, beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder; only one in five applicants is normally accepted, a company statement said.

Think you can live carelessly once in the site? You are wrong, whenever you update your pics, members evaluate whether you still hot or gone drab. There is no complacency with beauty!

Hear this; BeautifulPeople.com has axed about 5,000 members for packing on the pounds during the holiday season. The members complained about the fatties and the BeautifulPeople.com management sent the flagged members e-mails telling them they could register again for the site when the extra pudge was gone.

"We responded to complaints by moving the newly chubby members back to the rating stage. This is the same as having them re-apply," Greg Hodge, managing director of BeautifulPeople.com, said in a statement.

The company said it "expelled" 1,520 users from the U.S., 832 from the U.K., 533 from Canada, 510 from Poland, 425 from Germany, 402 from Italy, 323 from France, 220 from Denmark, 176 from Turkey and 88 people from Russia. In the e-mail, it gave users suggestions for boot camps and workout facilities to get themselves back in shape.

So you are hot? Register with this site and please share your experience with me. But, is it worth it? It is you to tell me.
