Yesterday Gawker sparked a plastic surgery debate, asking, if there's so much news about bad surgeries, why do people still insist on getting work done? They illustrated it with the funniest video, starring Heidi Montag who makes fun of herself, her life and her surgeries while saying something about credit cards - but god it's hard to listen to someone when all you can do is stare in amazement at her overhawked features! (this, on a day when Mattel introduced a revamped Barbie with such big eyes in comparison to her head that if she were real, she'd have to have eyes the size of tennis balls to be in the same proportion to her head as the doll now is). Nice message. Alien Barbie. But watch the video, it's like watching a train wreck. You can't really drag your eyes away.
Ron Howard directed it. He must have been paid a MOTZA, is all I can say.
I listened to Audrina on the Kyle & Jackie O show this morning (another empty headed reality star who gets paid to say things like, "like") and even she thinks Heidi looks weird. Like "an old person who's had surgery to stay young". Which is exactly the effect you don't want, right? Not when you actually ARE young - 23 is not an age to be having 10 surgeries. What's she going to do at 40? Get a new head?
How do you feel about plastic surgery?
