What was she thinking???

I'm sure that most of you have heard the story and seen the photos online, in magazines, and on TV. What am I referring to? Well, 23-year-old Heidi Montag of "The Hills" decided that her grotesque, elderly body was sagging and needed some work. So she decided to get 10 plastic surgery procedures at once.

First of all, this girl is 23 and has already had her boobs and nose done. I wouldn't get my boobs or nose done, but I can understand it- she's a celebrity, there's pressure to look good, done. STOP THERE. Nope- last month, she decided to go out and get the following:

- Brow lift- Botox- Nose Job #2- Fat injections in the face- Chin reduction- Liposuction of the neck- Liposuction on the waist- Liposuction on the hips- Liposuction on the thighs- Ears pinned back- Breast augmentation #2- Butt augmentation

Let me take issue with some of these right now. Brow lift. Brow lift??? Not a single person at age 23 needs a brow lift, unless they are the daughter of Frankenstein. And liposuction? She was already a VERY petite girl with what most people would consider a "perfect" body. I don't even think she had any extra fat to have sucked out! It's ridiculous that she got lipo in 4 places. What else...well, she got her boobs done AGAIN, taking her up to a DDD cup. Like I just said, she is a petite girl! Triple D implants on a super-skinny girl are not...shall we say...classy. And she looks like she'll topple over at any second because of the beach balls on her chest! What's more, she says that she wants to go bigger in the future. I have nothing to say to that.

Here's a quick before/after shot of her face. The first photo is from when she was 19 and had absolutely no plastic surgery and the second photo is her current look:
(you can read the entire nauseating People Magazine interview and see more photos here)

She was a cute girl before! Very cute. She looked a little bit young, but she was 19. That's expected. Now, she looks like she's 45 and trying to look 19. If I saw her in real life, I would probably think she was the same age as my mom, because who on earth gets that much done to their face so early in life? She has been quoted as saying that she now feels very "plastic" and she definitely hit the nail on the head, because that's exactly how she looks, too.

She claims that she wants to look like Barbie, that she has to constantly better herself with surgery because she wants to be successful in the music business, and that she wants to look sexy and have people fixate on her body. BUT, all the while, she preaches that beauty is on the inside and that young girls should find it within themselves. Can someone say "hypocrisy?"

All I have to say is, "perfect" is not perfect. Nobody wants to date a piece of plastic. I am absolutely not saying that plastic surgery as a whole is wrong and people who have it are ugly, but I am saying that getting more and more and more to fix each minute detail is probably just going to make you look worse and worse every time. Look at Mikey Rourke and Janice Dickinson! Nowadays, flaws are underrated and I think we need to start embracing them again. Otherwise, the world will just be filled with Ken and Barbies whose faces don't move when they smile and whose boobs start leaking if you squeeze 'em too hard.

Here's to being imperfect!

That girl has some major issues. She needs to get right in her head.

Here Here to being imperfect-it's the differences that make us beautiful.

Imperfections are awesome. It's too bad that she paid way too much money for her imperfections. She looks fake. And plastic, and yes, old. Too bad she can't get a reversal.

The only word that comes to mind is 'nutter' and then 'seek professional help'.

She needed therapy before any of this - she was really cute. With her self esteem being so tied to her looks - when she does get old - she's going to be popping sleeping pills to "end it all".

You are really cute - I'm glad you are content with your own skin.

Okay, so tell us how you really feel about her! =) lol

I am CONSTANTLY in shock by her...like something is really so off inside her little brain.

Yet another reason being famous isn't all it's cracked up to be!

Wow - she must not be very happy with herself to do all that. That's really sad. I've got all kinds of imperfections, but that's who I am. Although, i do have to remind myself of that. hmm.....

Perhaps she just needs brain surgery instead...

Tracie said...

My prediction: She is going to look like Carrot Top by the time she's 30.

And we know she has mental issues. Look who she's married to.

Found you through Yankee Girl. I agree 100% and I have a teen daughter, it is scary as hell.

Poor, poor, sad little girl. I really am concerned about her state of mind. Obviously she can't see herself even remotely the same way the rest of the world does.

Oh and Triple D boobs... mate! I've got E's and I wouldn't wish them on ANYONE!
