    Kelly Osborne's British accent, background and purple hair really make me think of Betsy's original look. Of course Betsy was a super model with an amazing body and whatnot, while Kelly has a softer face and more soft, feminine body, but she definitely reminds me of how this look could work. It looks like Betsy's character designer from the '80s was before his or her time!

    Maybe, but lets face it. The British Psy wasn't anything at all. Asian is where its at.

    So just because she's british and has purple hair means she would be a perfect Psylocke??
     
    If were looking for a pre asian Psylocke Kate Beckinsale is the way to go

    Eh, I don't think so. Her hair is good, but not much else.

    YES

    Someone had the same idea. Can't say it's a bad one, but I'd always prefer a no-name.

    Kelly Osborne? No offence, but gross IMO.

    Since I first saw her in Downton Abbey I've thought that Michelle Dockery would make a great British Psylocke. She's striking and beautiful and has the perfect balance of "hard" and "soft" in her features. Plus, she has an awesome voice.

    LOL I'm not obsessed or anything...

    LOL I didn't say Kelly would be the perfect Psylocke - I said she had purple hair and I saw how good it could look. The fact that she's British and blonde are just side characteristics.
