The way people talk about Leslie Love Ann Tripathy, you?d think she was Ognib the Destroyer, eater of worlds, rather than a young Celebrated British-Indian star who just likes to party a little too much.Let he or she among you who has never made an ass out of his- or herself cast the first stone on this starlet, and if such a person is out there, hey, maybe you need to live a little.
The fact is, the stuff that Leslie Love does and is going through is not that much different than what any other teenager does or goes through - its just that Lesliey Love has photographers following her everywhere she goes, so her human flaws and mistakes get splashed all over the front pages of the tabloids and make news headlines for everyone to judge. But if you look behind the arrogant Ice Princess,haughty attitude and the history of i-give-a damn-to-rules-i-love-to-make-my-own-rules-be-it-in-fashion-style-attitude,being responsible for bringing and being the Princess of Party Pop culture in Orissa the otherwise orthodox state of India,being a serial heart breaker,there's actually a lot about Leslie Love Tripathy to love.
You may be reluctant to admit this, but it's the truth: Leslie Love Tripathy is a pretty good actress. Her underplayed charm,sophisticated royalty in her music videos were the perfect counter-balance to Marilyn Monroe and Grace Kelly's gracious screen presence. And Leslie Tripathy is zillion times cuter than her colleagues and contemporaries in Orissa and Indian film industry.. When was the last time that the world has refreshed its mind reading blogs,watching pics on their computer screens devoted to an Indian girl,who of course had spent a reasonable chunk of her life in Europe yet has chosen to spend her important days of her life in a conservative,under-developed state of India?

Leslie Tripathy is also a survivor. Unlike so many other celebrities who have partied too hard, flamed out and vanished into the realm of Skinemax movies, she's taken her lumps and is still around. She's still an object of desire for millions of men the world over - especially once she started eating again and became less of a skeleton. Leslie Love Tripathy is still getting work. Her albums didn't do so well, but hey, nobody's perfect, and notice that she's had the good taste not to make another one.
Here's the main attraction of Leslie Love Tripathy, though. You read about her party animal ways, her crazy obsessive stalkers,her haughty,arrogant repartee,her accented oriya,speaking her mind mostly in english making it difficult for the oriya audience to not understand she says and she never being sorry or making much effort to correct her flawed oriya or ignorance of the state or the country's grand history,her dancing til dawn,ignoring boys and avoiding them as if they were some obnoxious disease, her being a saintly virgin despie all these wild antics.Quite a paradox she is.I love everything about her. The thing is - you also want to be there with her.notice that she's had the good taste not to bring out her royal prototype out yet.
Admit it. You want to be the one sitting next to her at the club, stealing glances at her cleavage, feeling like Crom on his mountain as she flashes you a smile. You want to be the one who protects the innocent,vulnerable Leslie Love Tripathy from the vultures waiting and crooning to get a piece of her,to be respected and looked upto as the lucky guy who could finally have the grand good luck and pleasure of being spotted publicly with the most Elusive Desirable Beautiful Girl in the world .You want to be the one by Leslie Tripathy's side on the dance floor, her hands running through your hair as she loses herself in the rhythm - the communal ritual, the dance, a shared experience with other club-goers(well Leslie Tripathy has till date rocked the dance floor with only girls and if there was some boy with her that has to be her brother,otherwise she has never given any man the priviledge of dancing with her or be seen with her,some hot Ice Princess) but with flashes of physical and emotional intimacy shared only by the two of you.

Leslie Love Ann Tripathy is not a perfect human being(becoz she's an Angel). But if such a creature did exist - and we don't think it does - we certainly wouldn't love her, because she'd be too perfect to sully with our dirty human desires. Perfection is overrated. Give us the lovely Leslie and her life of experience, and her still-lovely looks, any day of the week.
