Is Humanoid Face the New Status Symbol?

Jessica Cassyle Carr [ Thu Jan 28 2010 9:00 AM ]

Finally Heidi can win the affection of G.I. Joe.

Ew, gross! Look at Heidi Montag’s face! I’m beginning to think more and more that people hire doctors to slice them up just because it’s there at their disposal. Just as a rich person might drive a status symbol, they might also turn their face into one. Or is plastic surgery more about insecurity?

This is not to say I’m opposed to plastic surgery for, say, minor, post-40 touchups. But for an not unattractive 23 year-old? You know what she looks like? A post-40 year-old who’s had tons of plastic surgery.

despite the fact [ Thu Jan 28 2010 10:12 AM ]

that her delusional personality shines brightly every time she opens her mouth to speak, I honestly thought ol' Heidi was a genuinely pretty girl. poor kid.

Seriously [ Thu Jan 28 2010 10:49 AM ]

She was beautiful before any surgery. We're so obsessed with ourselves it's disgusting.

When I watch TV [ Thu Jan 28 2010 12:19 PM ]

I've started to look at every person (esp. women, unfortunately) over the age of 35 and think, I wonder what she really looks like. It's everywhere and obvious. The woman who plays Sun on "Lost" got it last year and it ruined all her scenes for me.[Spoilers, click to reveal]

Not Sun! [ Thu Jan 28 2010 2:16 PM ]

I always thought the actress who plays Sun was a beautiful woman because she looked naturally beautiful. I would occasionally turn to my boyfriend during the first season of Lost to comment how pretty she is.
Well, guess now I feel better about myself.

The business of being famous [ Thu Jan 28 2010 5:02 PM ]

has made a lot of things turn upside down. There are people now who are famous for just "leaking" their porn video. Which, by the way, is exactly where plastic surgery bothers me least: Bulbous, distended, red-scarred monstrosities just to make mo money: Now that is honest work.

plastic surgery [ Fri Jan 29 2010 6:16 AM ]

This woman might have some kind of mental problem but you shouldn't knock plastic surgery for normal people. My BFF got a nose job and it was so worth it. She said it was by far the most painful experience of her life though. And she's given birth!

When they had to operate on my nose they want to know if they should make it pretty too [ Fri Jan 29 2010 1:20 PM ]

Wouldn't that make it all just too easy?
