Jesus, that thumbnail.

She should sue the fuxk out of her surgeon. Absolutely horrible work.

I get that this is surprising to many, but it's possible to have news stories covering women without instinctively turning it into a discussion about their appearances.

It wasn't a discussion about her looks, it was a complaint about malpractice.

Seriously, that is how bad the work is. Whoever the surgeon was needs their ability to practice medicine removed. You do understand that there are some really shady surgeons in the cosmetic surgery industry, right?

She legitimately should sue the fuck out of that doctor because they shouldn't be allowed to touch anyone else. You get a surgeon doing work that bad, they're probably cutting corners and being unsafe too. People have died and/or been mutilated by plastic surgeons that just don't have the skill or training to do good work. The fact that the doctor is somehow able to convince someone that famous to let them fuck up that bad is horrible. What kind of fake portfolio did she see to trust the doctor in the first place?

For whatever reason, actors chase youth and false standards of beauty. Doctors take advantage of that for profit. Look at what happened to Michael Jackson. Hell, even Mickey Rourke ended up with worse results than he should have, and he started out with reconstruction rather than cosmetic surgery. If the first surgeon had been competent, he wouldn't have had to have so many just to get to the point of normalcy.

It isn't about a woman's looks, it's about the major problem of abusive, near criminal malpractice in cosmetic surgery.

I looked, all I saw was someone with skin a little too smooth for their age but nothing out of the ordinary. She still looks like her but older. Other than the red carpet makeup I doubt most people would even register that work was done. You appear to be overly sensitive and should probably talk to a professional about whatever it is that's really bothering you.
