Titus initially set her up with matches who were no-shows and cancelled at the last minute — who she now suspects weren't real. The two men she did have dates with in the six months since signing up, meanwhile, turned out to be business partners with Titus.The report comes from The Daily News, which got a response from Matt Titus, acknowledging that the 2 men were in fact persons he does business with, but that they "completely fit her criteria — they’re both tall, Ivy League educated and Jewish." One of the men then got in touch with the News and said he really did try to date her, but she kept emailing him pictures of herself with her dogs and "It just becomes annoying.... She lives for her dogs."
The woman, Julie Hyman, responds that the matchmaker should have put her with someone who's into dogs — tall, Jewish, Ivy League, and into dogs. The dogs are named Rocky and Vegas, by the way.

I want people to start describing me by a job I had decades earlier when I was a child.
I've never heard of these people and I don't care who wins. If he has a long client list, I'd say he's for real and she's just unpleasant to date. If it's a short list, or all women, then it looks like a scam.
Why isn't she suing the woman who referred her to Titus?
What are the odds that this genius voted for Swaggy thinkin he was tall, dark and Jewish? He did promise the First Daughters a dog after the election. I bet she is still Hoping for Change.
Who'da thunk it!
Titus is into Supergirl Underoo models.
Tits!
Was this article an attempt by The Daily News to lure core NYT readers?
8 grand for 8 dates?!?
Hasn't she ever heard of OK Cupid? She deserves to lose on stupidity alone.
Does her Mom cut her hair?
I'm thinking she was stylin' those bangs way back when she was rockin' the underoos.
How many here first thought this was about our Titus? I mean really, a six-foot tall underoos model?
she was stylin' those bangs way back when she was rockin' the underoos.
Proof ??
I take it Hyman is not a virgin at anything. But Titus should have come across with the product he was pimping. So she gets a refund.
She said she turned to Laurent because “I trust Oprah,” but Laurent told her she didn’t handle women her age, and referred her to “date coach” Titus.
So many levels of sad.
"Oprah-endorsed celebrity matchmaker" cracks me up. And she wouldn't take her money! I only work with celebrities, you peon. I'm Oprah-endorsed! I'm going to fob you off on some dude named Titus.
Here is his failed reality show.
Now I'm on a quest to find a photo of her in Supergirl underoos.
Okay, I am really, really sorry that I did a search for supergirl underoos. I might have to answer some questions from the NSA Child Porn Police division. Great. Awesome. I had this idea that she would be an adult, officer. I'm an idiot, officer.
Anyway, here are the Underoos Girls of 1978. It's kinda cute, actually. But not in a sexy way, officer.
It doesn't matter whether she's annoying or not. She paid and the guy didn't deliver.
If she'd paid for a wheel of cheese a month for eight months and she only got a half a pack of Velveeta the guy found in the bottom of his fridge, you'd say she's entitled to a refund, right? And her distasteful penchant for making baby talk to yappy, little, white dogs wouldn't enter in to it.
Painting her as a weirdo is is a bullshit distraction, a dick move and totally irrelevant.
Hook the girl up or give her the money back. Its that simple.
All of these people, including their families and indeed everyone they have ever met, should be horse-whipped, just on general principle.
At least she won't become a cat lady.
"Anyway, here are the Underoos Girls of 1978. It's kinda cute, actually. But not in a sexy way, officer."
I was squicked out. They'd never do a tv ad like that today, I don't think.
This shouldn't be litigated, so I favor the defendant.
Squicked?
Is that something less than empowered??
They'd never do a tv ad like that today, I don't think.
It's weird to think of 1978 as a more innocent time. But it was, at least in regard to kids.
My brother had Aquaman underoos. He used to run around the house in the damn things. He was the right age for the underoos madness.
A "six-foot blonde — and former Supergirl Underoos model" who can't get date?
What's REALLY wrong with her?
The dogs represent,...
BuzzFeed has 16 Vintage Underwear Ads That Will Give You Nightmares
I think the idea of the Underoos was to give children the sense that they were powerful. "I might seem like an ordinary fourth grader, but that's just my secret identity. I'm a super-hero!" I think they were aiming for quiet confidence. But of course what they got was a lot of underwear super-hero streaking in public.
I side with the woman.
$8000 for eight dates is a lot of money. And she's not bad looking, either -- she would get a lot more than eight guys asking her out if she had a profile on OKCupid. So I really don't have much sympathy for a professional matchmaker in New York City who can't find one date a month for a tall blonde.
Well, if St. Croix disappears, we all know what happened...
"Hyman “is a former child actor/Ford teen model turned single professional woman in her early 40s[43], who like many other single professional women[Divorce Lawyer!], is ready to settle down and possibly have children"
All she wants is a "tall, Ivy League educated and Jewish" man who's is "pet friendly".
I am amazed she is not beating suitors off with a stick.
$8000 for a date? That's ridiculous. She doesn't look that bad...probably has some issues, but I'd date her for $4000.
I only saw a still from the Underoos ad, I didn't watch the video. Is the squick factor higher than the old Love's Baby Soft ads? ("Because innocence is sexier than you think.")
I voted for her, and expect she will get her money back. That is the advantage of being an attorney. I am not Jewish, nor did I attend an Ivy League university. But if I were close to her age, and still dating, I would date her. Attorneys are weird, but I get along fine with them. And the dogs are weird, but seemingly a child substitute, which means that if she ever had children, they would probably ultimately disappear from her life. Of course, that means that she would likely be overbearing and overprotective of her real children, but you would probably expect that of a (probably) Jewish lawyerette.
I agree with The Crack Emcee on this one. Six foot tall blond former models shouldn't need to spend any money to get dates.
@Ralph/Crack,
Oh sure, she can get dates. She could probably get hundreds of dates.
But, those kind of dates aren't what she wants. She thinks the only man for her is tall, Jewish, & rich ("highly educated men with entrepreneurial spirit", fancy words that mean nothing to her but "rich").
She doesn't want to waste her time dating schulbs who aren't up to her exacting standards. I mean, it is so crass to actually have to ask a guy "How much money do you have?". To do so would out her as the now not-so-young gold-digger she is to her prospective partners. So, she uses a matchmaker who's supposed to check all that stuff out for you before the first date. So, that way one doesn't have to ask embarrassing questions.
Do I think she was cheated? Yes, I do. But, I feel sorry for her in the same way I feel sorry for a guy who wanted his dates to be D-cups, and got a B. That's to say, not very sorry at all.
A statuesque divorce lawyer is torching her celebrity matchmaker.
Statuesque? The Daily News isn't noted for it stylebook.

How "into dogs" does one have to be to suit this lunatic? The fact that we know the dog's names tells us volumes.
I'm "into dogs," so is Althouse to gather by the subjects discussed here... but not enough to own one.
A few years back I had this on again, off again affair with a very successful commercial designer who was also into dogs, but not enough to own one. She even had the names picked out. There were to be two, a black male pug and a silver pug bitch, and they were to be Napoleon and Josephine.
So where are they, I asked? It's not the right time in my life, she said.
Yeah, right....
I stopped going out with a much better-looking blonde woman than this when her German shepherd kept getting into the bed.
I voted Hyman, because she paid $8,000 and didn't get what was offered..
But I {really} don't care. I can't stand any of these people.
h sure, she can get dates. She could probably get hundreds of dates.
But, those kind of dates aren't what she wants. She thinks the only man for her is tall, Jewish, & rich ("highly educated men with entrepreneurial spirit", fancy words that mean nothing to her but "rich").
That might be a moral failure on her part, but the dude's a matchmaker. The contract wasn't to get her married, it was to get her a certain number of dates that met her specifications. The matchmaker should either live up to the terms of the contract, or give her her money back.
I kind of wonder if the matchmaker has really thought through the implications of the "she likes dogs too much" defense strategy. I imagine that most people who are willing to pay $8000 to a matchmaker are a little bit harder up for a date than an ex model who is currently an attorney. Does he really want to promote the idea that he can only help you if you are a better catch than this woman?
>Does he really want to promote the idea that he can only help you if you are a better catch than this woman?
Or "When pressed, I will spill embarrassing details about you?"
She should sue because she was sold a bill of goods.
Not just by Titus, but by the entire women's movement, who told her she could have it all, and there would never be any tradeoffs.
At well past forty, she is more than a little shop-worn.
This is Julie Hyman singing with her dogs...you actually think an attorney (or ANYONE) who posts these videos is she's "all there??" lol

Actually, I know of the guy she met, Jonathan, from a mutual friend. He is a good-looking Jewish Harvard grad who comes from ALOT of money. He went out with her like 3 times and she sent him MANY insane pics,texts,videos with her dogs with captions like "mommy loves her doggies so much. She misses them and is the best doggy mommy..." uhhhh and she's still single because?? and was essentially stalking him. She is REALLY off her rocker from what I have heard.
