James ‘Arg’ Argents new look was only revealed yesterday as he tried desperately to win back ex-girlfriend Lydia Bright with a set of incredibly white veneers and the standard TOWIE luminous tan, but fans are already letting him know what they think of his makeover via social networking site Twitter.
So far, the most common comparison is with Friends character Ross Geller – who whitened his teeth for a date and was left with a glowing smile – which might suggest that the 24-year-old reality TV regular has overdone it with the bleach. Some might say the TOWIE star was asking for trouble by posting a picture of his over-the-top look on Twitter and saying ‘heres a pic of New Arg lol. Do I get your approval guys? Bit Reemer?’
His followers were quick to respond and it wasn’t all positive; ‘Arg’s teeth are giving Ross Geller’s a run for his money!’ exclaimed one person, whilst another addressed him directly, saying ‘Arg, your teeth are too WHITE!!!! They remind me of Ross from Friends.’ Although white teeth/dark tan is part of the Essex uniform, Arg might not be too happy with the reaction to his new look, particularly after Lydia turned down a reconciliation when the pair ran into each other at a charity event recently. Fellow TOWIE cast member Lydia didn’t specifically blame the teeth for her rejection, but she did politely point out that his teeth looked ‘so different.’
