Nose-y Celebrities

If celebrities are willing to undergo liposuction for already-perfect bodies, breast implants to get the perfect double E’s, and face lifts at the slightest hint of a droop, it’s no wonder that nose jobs in the celeb world are as common as a wardrobe change. When regular people undergo the procedure for “health reasons,” chances are it’s true about 50% of the time. But when this line gets tossed out of a celebrity’s mouth after sporting a new, sleek snout, it’s harder for us to really believe. Maybe it’s because the level of perfection doesn’t seem fair. Or maybe it’s because one deviated septum-related surgery seems plausible, but the four following rounds of adjustments just don’t quite add up (unless the first three doctors lied about their medical credentials and the fourth one was required to fix all their mistakes). While it’s hard to tell what the exact driving force was behind some celebrity nose job, there are some stars for which it definitely seems like a beautiful decision:

• Ashlee Simpson – she went from big and bumpy to small and sleek
• Jennifer Aniston – she’s had several for a deviated septum, but a pleasant by-product was a beautiful new face
• Heidi Montag – her nose may be the only thing she really needed changed
• Britney Spears – it was a really slight change but made a really big difference
• Halle Berry – first stop, rhinoplasty…second stop, Oscar!
• Winona Ryder – this girl-next-door beauty had her nose narrowed and still managed to look all-natural
• Janet Jackson – her new nose proves that cute isn’t bad, but sexy is better…let’s just hope she doesn’t follow in Michael’s footsteps and take it any further

We love to criticize everything celebs do, but then are disappointed when they prove to be unworthy of worship. So next time we think the celebrity nose jobs fad is out of control, consider this – maybe stars are just trying to satiate our appreciation of ever-more beautiful faces by staying one surgery ahead.
