Too Hot for Citi Employee: [Update]I want to look like a Playboy playmate, and marry a rich guy..

[HipChick]

...when she didn't hit the sugardaddy jackpot, she thought she'd try her hand at lawsuits...

Hottie Banker's Boob Implant Video: 'I Want to Be Tits on a Stick'
Debrahlee Lorenzana—the banker who says Citibank fired her for being too hot—made a documentary (infomercial?) about getting a second boob job at age 26. "I want to look like a Playboy playmate," she says. Her goal: marrying rich.

The following video shows Debrahlee discussing two breast augmentations, liposuction, and a tummy tuck from her hottie Long Island doctor. ("He's the doctor that you see in the soap operas, and you die for.") She wants "huge double-D. Very perky. Big Breasts. I want to look like a Playboy playmate" to help her on her "determined manhunt." We see Debrahlee hugging her son, gyrating at a dance club, lying on a surgical table, and getting her nipples sliced off. (OK, we don't see the literal slicing. But there are dotted lines and a scalpel.)

A US bank worker who claimed she was fired for being "too sexy" had cosmetic surgery to make her look like a Playboy centrefold. Curvy Debrahlee Lorenzana had double DD breast implants to make herself sexier and more attractive to men. The 33-year-old also had other cosmetic surgery, including a tummy tuck and liposuction, telling a TV documentary: "I love plastic surgery." But now it has been revealed Lorenzana paid thousands of pounds to create a Pamela Anderson type figure. Lorenzana took part in a 2003 TV show called "Plastic Surgery New York Style" for the Discovery Health Channel. In the show she was filmed giggling at a plastic surgeon's office as she discussed having a fourth boob job. She says: "That's what I want to be - t*ts on a stick." She is seen asking surgeon Dr Kaven Alizadeh for "huge, double Ds".
Lorenzana added she wanted to look like a cross between Pamela Anderson and Carmen Electra.
She said she hoped her silicon enhanced figure would help her attract a handsome boyfriend, citing George Clooney as her ideal man. Lorenzana said: "He'll be happy because I'll be looking like a little Playboy Playmate."
But her lawyers have insisted her love of plastic surgery does nothing to change her case against Citiban

1. Her body, her decision.

Though I have to say, there seems to be a lot of "Tits on a Stick" in the porn industry that don't marry rich.

As a man, I wouldn't marry tits on a stick, regardless of my bank.

Good luck to her, I guess.

[HipChick]

2. As a female in a male dominated industry

There are huge double standards, but I don't think she had helped her case any..by doing the media rounds...and I wont be surprised if she ends up in Playboy or Hustler

[flvegan]

5. Agreed. As a male in a male dominated industry

I hate the double standards, and I tend to ignore them. Which is why 80% of the folks that work for me are female. They're just better. Don't tell the Men's Club that, though. Might lose my card to the Club.

[HipChick]

10. I hear you...I prefer to work with all males

working with other women always turns into a catfest...I just hired a male secretary too..

[tammywammy]

62. I prefer working around mostly males too

I'm an admin, and the only people I have problems with at my job are other female admins (who should pay more attention to their own job rather than worrying about what I'm doing all the darn time).

But also I think some of it is an age thing. The few I have problems with are older and more of the type that says "but we've always done it this way." I'm some new young (*cough*) girl that doesn't see the importance of forwarding my phone if I have to go to the bathroom. LOL, such is life.

[seabeyond]

64. i use to say that, but when i think back.... not so much. good employees, not good employees both

genders.

meh

[tammywammy]

65. Yeah, I hear you

I guess it just seems to be that it's other women that turn into this back biting and less from men. And it's not all women either (I have some lovely female co-workers).

Okay, so really it just boils down to, I wish I didn't work with *these* specific women. lol

[seabeyond]

66. lol

further, i mostly hang out with boys/men. i think i am more comfortable in that. lately in life, i have found myself hanging with women, and thinking, hm.... not that same feel of the past.

i use to be a manager, hiring and placing many employees, so that is what i was reflecting on.

and when i was young, just starting, i was in accounting. lots of women. i had some good mentor type females that helped me along the way an awful lot. i dont think i gave them credit.

[closeupready]

70. You get to go to the bathroom at work? I assume you punch out for that?

:sarcasm: ;)

[FLPanhandle]

80. I'm with you.

I prefer to hire women. I found they work harder and complain less. Probably shouldn't admit to that as a guy.

[AllentownJake]

22. I think that was her goal to begin with

If she was serious about her lawsuit she'd be fighting in court...not on the View.

[Dorian Gray]

67. Yep....

and yep.

If she wants to do this to herself, good luck to her.

I don't know anybody who wants "tits on a stick" to marry, though. I'm sure they exist, and she is attractive, I suppose. But, it's bizarre that this is her goal.

[bluestateguy]

3. Her case sounds hard to prove

She probably ruff;ed some feathers among the less attractive females at the company, but the evidence she cites for wrongful termination sounds very flimsy.

[AllentownJake]

25. I'm waiting to see her written warnings

for dress code violations published somewhere. I was a compliance auditor. The lengths companies of Citigroup's size go to, to avoid any EEOC claims is quite extraordinary in the termination process.

That paperwork is looked at more carefully than a million dollar loan document.

6. Her work outfits were well within the range of what's considered acceptable.

Slideshow here: http://www.villagevoice.com/2010-06-01/news/is-this-woman-too-hot-to-work-in-a-bank/1 Her work outfits start a few pics in.

Also, her side of the story is quite telling: (from the same link)

This is the way Debbie Lorenzana tells it: Her bosses told her they couldn't concentrate on their work because her appearance was too distracting. They ordered her to stop wearing turtlenecks. She was also forbidden to wear pencil skirts, three-inch heels, or fitted business suits. Lorenzana, a 33-year-old single mom, pointed out female colleagues whose clothing was far more revealing than hers: "They said their body shapes were different from mine, and I drew too much attention," she says.

As Lorenzana's lawsuit puts it, her bosses told her that "as a result of the shape of her figure, such clothes were purportedly 'too distracting' for her male colleagues and supervisors to bear."

...

Her attorney, Jack Tuckner, who calls himself a "sex-positive" women's-rights lawyer, is the first one to say his client is a babe. But so what? For him, it all boils down to self-control. "It's like saying," Tuckner argues, "that we can't think anymore 'cause our penises are standing up—and we cannot think about you except in a sexual manner—and we can't look at you without wanting to have sexual intercourse with you. And it's up to you, gorgeous woman, to lessen your appeal so that we can focus!"

[HipChick]

8. Those were a PR portfolio put together by the lawyer that she hired..

I know a lot of professional women that push the edge when it comes to acceptable work clothes..I am far from being a prude, and had my feathers ruffled at being asked to put on a jacket because I was wearing a sleeveless top..and I've worked all year to have Michelle arms

[laconicsax]

74. Generally speaking, when someone references a specific outfit they wore and has a picture...

I tend to take the position that the picture is probably of the outfit in question.

[SoCalDem]

12. Except.....

for the fact that she could have just as easily bought them a bit larger, to UN-accentuate her "sexiness".. She knew exactly what she was doing...
She chose her wardrobe carefully to just barely fit within the guidelines, but still flaunt her "assets", so she could then bat her eyelashes and do her "ahh dew-dee-clay-aah...whatever are you lookin'at darlin'..." routine.. There ARE women like this , who enjoy being ogled, and then feign ignorance at their own part in it..

[laconicsax]

14. The simple fact is that she did nothing wrong.

There's a double standard here. Women who don't show off their body might get harassed with demands to do so if not fired for a lack of 'professionalism.' She wears work-appropriate clothing and gets fired because it does show off her curves.

Even if she does enjoy being ogled, so what? That doesn't make her wrong any more than a woman who has a lot of partners is asking to be raped.

[AllentownJake]

24. We really know nothing about this case

Seriously, this is a legal case. As such, Citigroup is not going to go out and make its case in the court of public opinion.

1) If they dump her personell file, they violate the law.

2) She is no threat to Citigroup other than a small claim, they will let her talk shit fight her claim in court and the EEOC hearing.

3) The only side we get is hers from doing media appearences. I have not seen any evidence from her. An email from her boss, a written warning from HR, etc. The state she's in, those things are necessary for termination other than layoffs which are no fault.

[blondeatlast]

60. Bingo. My pants and skirts for leisure I buy a tad on the small side, but for work

I opt for some room (any woman knows nothing ever fits perfectly).

[Democat]

15. The outfits that her PR people showed us, you mean?

Come on, this is all about getting publicity.

[phasma ex machina]

68. "I Want to Be Tits on a Stick" sounds like the work of a pro ad agency. Who's pitching the tits?

:rofl:

Mother may I say "tits" like the story?

My earlier reply that openly asked "Who's pitching the witch?" (only with the B word) got deleted you see.

Addendum:

"Playboy playmate, and marry a rich guy"

What is this? A bad acid trip down memory lane to the 50s? Geezer nostalgia? Who are powers-that-be pitching this made over American dream to?

[AllentownJake]

21. I'm sure this is all documented in an email

or some form of paper warning...or was she doing a bad job and she made something up.

Here is the deal, she can make up whatever she wants to, and Citi's hands are tied legally about telling their side of the story.

Her behavior over this is not of some woman's activist. It is someone who wants to cash in and is moderately attractive, not super attractive, moderately attractive.

[tammywammy]

48. +1

We're only hearing her side of the story, and honestly it sounds pretty far fetched.

[AllentownJake]

50. She was in sales

That was when I said, oh bullshit.

The company doesn't care if you make your co-workers uncomfortable with what you wear if you are in sales , they care if you make the client uncomfortable.

She had shitty numbers and was let go.

In financial services sales, being an attractive 30 something woman who is well dressed is something that is an asset. Not a liability.

[tammywammy]

59. I agree

We discussed this Monday night in my HR Management class. While everyone agreed that she is an attractive woman, everyone also thought her story was full of bunk. Citi can't respond, but she can go on tv all day and night.

I also work at a large company and if they're to let someone go, it's completely documented. If she was given a written warning, where is her copy? Also, I don't trust those PR pics she released either. Those aren't her at work, they're after she was fired. For all we know, she was wearing a tube top and mini-skirt to work, and not something that's considered "business professional."

I will say, there is a slim chance she was fired for being too hot and was dressed in an appropriate manner. I await to see more on this case, it's very interesting.

[chatnoir]

7. Wow, she's shockingly inarticulate

Makes one wonder how she ever had a position at Citi beyond teller.

[HipChick]

9. Sometimes people get hired based on looks

and the company figure that they are trainable..

[JI7]

11. i thought the guys admitted they couldn't work with her around

and i blamed it on the guys just not being up to the job.

but looks like a frivolous lawsuit now. she sounds like a total idiot. in fact i think now that she probably got the job based on her appearance.

and then they saw what a dumbass she was so they had to fire her.

[AllentownJake]

30. She got hit for not opening enough accounts as one of the reasons

According to what was reported by the woman herself.

Doubtful she was stealing business from anyone, that behavior is encouraged.

[Common Sense Party]

13. Forgive my ignorance...

But do they REALLY remove the nipples? Or do they move them? If they remain, are they still functional? That is, if (heaven forfend) she procreates, can she breast feed? If they're gone...does ahe really think that's more attractive? Big, nipple-less Barbie boobs?

Sorry, I'm just clueless about the whole plastic surgery stuff.

[zazen]

28. areola semi-circle is cut open and implant is inserted through

AND they manage to insert it under the muscle. It's beyond me.

I know about this from post-mastectomy reconstruction (they have to do the normal side to match).

Heals up well--one never sees the scar--and typically doesn't impede sensation or breast feeding.

[HipChick]

35. they can also go in via the bellybutton or underarm..scarless

[WinkyDink]

44. Hasn't been done this way in ages.

[jberryhill]

16. I can empathize

I've been too sexy for my shirt for years.

[1Hippiechick]

17. Totally disgusting commentary of our times. What a dim-witted twit who apparently OD'd on

"Girls Gone Wild" and the other totally disgusting 'reality' programs. Too bad she is not more interested in her character--and raising her son w/values.

[AllentownJake]

18. If we had actual journalist

This story would have been blown off before it was printed in the first place.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

19. I saw her on Joy Behar's Show.

She said that after they told her not to wear sexy clothes, she went to work with NO MAKEUP on. So some man told her she "looked dead". Couldn't win either way, it sounds like.

I'd say she has a good EEOC retaliation claim b/c they fired her after she went to HR.

[AllentownJake]

20. I'd say it is hardly national news

Particularly with her reality TV past.

She appears to me to be a publicity junkie. I would allow the EEOC and courts to evaluate her claims, I think she does a disservice to women in the work force, not a service right now.

In any regards, I'd love to have a discussion with her on her given field. I'd be better be able to make an assesment if she was a professional...from the reality TV nonsense, I doubt it highly. She's moderately attractive and have actually worked with more attractive and capable women in the financial services industry, who did not experience that problem...not with Citigroup, but elsewhere.

For all we know she could be making a lot up.

God, I'm somewhat defending Citigroup...someone hit me.

[HipChick]

39. She is toast...she was dumb enough to sign an arbitration clause..she cannot take it to court with a

jury...

she has to go arbitration...and the arbitrators work for Citi...they are unlikely to be even a tad bit sympathetic...

her best hope is getting a deal from Hustler or Playboy

[AllentownJake]

42. She'd lose a jury trial as well

If it was a sales office, I'm guessing she wasn't the only attractive 20-30 something woman in it. Particularly since it was Manhattan.

I wonder if the media even went down to the sales office and took a peak before reporting this nonsense.

[blondeatlast]

61. I have to admit, I've done the makeup/no makeup route and gotten the exact same reaction.

Aggravating as hell. As long as I'm within the dress code, I should be able to choose my grooming with NO comment from others.

[eShirl]

23. wtf... she wanted, through surgery, to be "huge double-D" *AND* perky, both at the same time?

Is that even possible under normal Earth gravity?

[1Hippiechick]

33. As I said in reply 17: Dim-Witted. n/t

[jp11]

26. I'm calling her a nutjob.

[AllentownJake]

27. Craven opportunist

Playing the media and making a buck off of it isn't nuts. It is just not ethical.

[chrisa]

32. I agree.

Some people just know how to get attention whent hey want it, and they're good at that.

[TexasObserver]

29. She'll have a deal with Playboy within a year.

And that's what she wants.

[AllentownJake]

31. 2 months

In a year she will be working as a waitress after she blows the money.

Which judging by her TV appearences is a job she is qualified for.

Worked in the industry for 5 years, being an attractive competent woman was never a problem for anyone involved in sales of financial products.

When I've dated and been friends with women who are more attractive and worked in Sales positions in my time at these firms, I had to laugh at the complaint.

Grab ass or an indecent proposition I might buy. Too sexy for work selling financial products...please.

[Hannah Bell]

34. so her "hot" body (not-so much, imo) is fake? lol. she's obsessed with herself

& thinks everyone else is too.

[AllentownJake]

36. She got fired for missing sales quotas

and wanted to make money.

The shame is two fold. A little on her for being unethical. A lot on the US media for reporting this nonsense without doing a good investigation.

Hell the headline is great and can spark outrage, the fact is, it probably was untrue.

Too hot in normal business attire for sales in financial services. Has she turned on the pump monkeys on CNBC and expect me to reasonably believe her, even if I hadn't spent 5 years in the industry.

:rofl:

[HipChick]

38. Ding! Ding!..we have a winner!..

[Hannah Bell]

40. doesn't surprise me a bit. i've seen lots prettier women & the men working with them

somehow managed to get some work done without ravishing them.

[AllentownJake]

41. If she said her boss grabbed her ass

or tried to sleep with her, I'd be more prone to believe her in the industry.

She was fired for being too attractive in normal business attire selling financial products

:rofl:

[walldude]

75. Yep I said the same thing when the story first broke..

"I'm so attractive that men can't function around me" :rofl: Man that is the most vain statement I have ever heard in my life.

[HipChick]

37. the amount of surgery she has had at that age

she has body image problems to begin with..tummy tuck and lipsosuction as well

[WinkyDink]

43. I don't find her goal any worse than the rich man's one for marrying her or her type. Trump, anyone?

[TexasObserver]

45. Donald Trump would gag a buzzard off a gut wagon.

Are you sure you want to use him as a comparison?

I don't have any use for either side of the rich man/dumb woman combo.

[AllentownJake]

46. His daughter seems reasonably intelligent

Of course she could be reading a script.

[seabeyond]

47. the thing about it is, men get in trouble for sexually harrassing. what happens when women uses her

sexuality to make the work environment uncomfortable for all.

from day one, the pictures showed body language that were a clue in. and since, she has done nothing but show how she uses her sexuality to get what she wants. was she actively working for the rich husband at work?

that doesnt behoove any of us women in the work force. it isnt appropriate in the work environment. if the goose isnt allowed, the gander cant play.

[AllentownJake]

49. She's most likely lying

I'm pretty sure if you go to her old office, since it was a sales office, you will find 2-3 women more attractive than her, wearing the clothing she said she was told not to wear.

The media is lazy and inept.

She sucked at her job and got fired and decided to try to make money by making up a story that was appealing to the media.

She was in sales, since when has a sales department told an attractive woman not to wear normal business attire to work. Being physically attractive is a winning quality in sales whether you are a man or a woman.

She's protected by the fact Citigroup can't release her personnel file. If she was telling the truth you'd see a PDF of a written warning for dressing inappropriately with guidelines what to wear.

[seabeyond]

51. i agree with you.... i am not to concern it is an office of men that cant focus. nt

[AllentownJake]

52. Citigroup doesn't care if she dressed like a chicken

If she met her numbers.

As soon as I saw she was in sales and part of the reason was not meeting a quota my bullshit meter went to 100.

[DailyGrind51]

53. If she uses looks to marry for money, the guy will eventually find someone younger and prettier!

[seabeyond]

55. reality is, if it is all about using, can set up a pretty good nest egg, before he looks

for a younger. so why does she care when he moves on.

[AllentownJake]

56. Her type blows it all on trying to stay looking that way nt.

[Donnachaidh]

77. like this?

[DailyGrind51]

57. It's called a "pre-nup". Believe me, "he" will insist on one!

[treestar]

58. Yeah, she should plan for that!

and make sure she gets a good prenup.

Stupid, she should have just gone into modeling and made the $$ herself.

[Therellas]

54. come on guys... western medicine is the best in the world...

guys? come on....

[SidDithers]

63. So?...nt

Sid

[asdjrocky]

69. We now have a sitting US Senetor who posed nearly naked in a mag...

Yet, I hear few people mention this here. You have to wonder if there is somewhat a double standard among even self proclaimed liberals.

[tammywammy]

71. It was talked about quite a bit when the news of Brown's photo spread came out.

That's old news now.

[AllentownJake]

72. No

I think she's lying because I worked in the industry and being pretty and in sales never was an issue for any of the women I saw.

Boss grabbed her ass or tried to sleep with her, I'd buy that. This, doubtful.

[NeedleCast]

73. She sounds like a real winner

Love that the truth is coming out about this.

My sister had a bunch of hottie friends who all set marrying rich and finding that McDreamy man. Almost all of them are now divorced at least once. One of them had her credit completely ruined by her rich McDreamy who (via investment scams) stole a ton of money, and managed to blame some of it on her. Another spent several years being savagely beaten by her McDreamy rich husband.

I'm sure Debrahlee will find exactly what she's looking for...

[Donnachaidh]

76. Has she seen Clooney's GF? She doesn't look like the plastic Skank du jour this one is.

Yeah -- she'll have porn producers telling her how *gorgeous* she is :rofl:

[joe black]

79. Or perhaps an escort job.

[hatrack]

78. Is there some way she and Octomom and Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan . . .

Can all be on the same sound stage at the same time?

Their concentrated presence would likely bend radio and light waves.

[freethought]

81. This whole situation is a surprise? How?

A woman gets plastic surgery to attract a rich man? My comment to her would be "Get in line."

She wanted to look like a 'Playboy playmate'? Gee, how about trying something original. She's not unique at all. Why else would any woman want to look like a playmate? To promote and acting career? How many former PBoy models actually made it big in acting? Very, very few. I mean single digits in terms of numbers. Usually the story goes that a playmate does her spread. Then they spend time around the Hollywood party circuit then land some hotshot L.A. lawyer, or wind up dating an actor.
