Ashley Judd: The importance of a backup bracketActress Ashley Judd takes her “March Madness” brackets very, very seriously. The University of Kentucky alum and star of the new ABC show “Missing” tells USA Today that she’s so nervous about losing, she fills out two cards - the first based on the experts’ opinions and the second according to her gut. "I have two brackets,” she says. “One that I think will happen and one that I hope happens.”
That's the thing about March Madness, she continues: "You put it in ink, and you've got to live with it and not be ashamed when it falls apart in the second round." Meaning Judd was a little "wishy-washy" about nailing down her picks in the interview. "In the privacy of my own home, I'd had some really amazing brackets that were astonishingly intact for the Elite Eight," she explains. "And now, I'm just afraid I'm going to make a fool of myself." But Judd's brackets are surely all prepared by now, as March Madness officially kicks off today. And while Judd sets the record straight on which NCAA team is bound to take it all - the Kentucky Wildcats, of course - she also took the time to clear up some rumors that she may have recently had some plastic surgery done. Her publicist has addressed photos that depicted Judd with a slightly puffy face, saying the plastic surgery rumors were “unequivocally not true.” She explained that Judd “has been battling an ongoing, serious sinus infection and flu,” and the actress backed her up via Twitter. “Thanks to all asking how I've been feeling," Judd wrote. "[S]till very sick (flu + viral infection in sinuses = wicked) but staying positive & having fun.” Her new show “Missing” debuts tonight.

You actually make it seem so easy together with your presentation but I to find this matter to be actually one thing which I believe I might never understand. It seems too complex and very broad for me. I am having a look ahead to your subsequent post, I will try to get the hang of it!

God Bless you ASHLEY JUDD AND EVERYONE ELAE.
ASHLEY JUDD IS HOT...MILF. THE POINT OF THIS ARTICLE IS TO ADVERTISE HER NEW SERIES "MISSING". DONT YOU GET IT PEOPLE?
She doesn't seem the type to have work done – what ever the 'type' is. But it's interesting to see how she takes care of her face. Whenever she is at an Indycar race (her husband is the Champ), she is always seen in a very wide-brim, floppy hat.
It may just be something to hide behind, but I'd guess it's to keep the sun from damaging her face. We don't often get to see what stars do in their everyday life, off-camera.
WHY DO WE CARE HOW ASHLEY DOES ANYTHING, LEARN HOW TO CELEBRATE YOURSELF, HOW DO YOU DECIDE, THAT'S WHAT COUNTS!!!
I don't do a bracket anymore. It was too intense trying to stay on top of where I was at and catching all the games. It drove my wife crazy. Now I just watch what I can and enjoy the tournament.
Get better Ashley! We need you out there... Brian S.
Thank you Cindy Crawford! Idiot
I'd still hit that harder than a pair of threes.
Her hips are getting a little big. She may want to hit the Exercycle some.
You call yourself cow? Cow, pig... either way: perfect.
