From Kylie Jenner’s lips to Tyra Banks’ nose and Dolly Parton’s everything – the celebrities who deny or admit plastic surgery
- For all the celebrities who openly admit to cosmetic procedures, there are others who deny they’ve had work done
- This can affect their fans, causing them to develop negative body image or low self-esteem
Nose jobs. Lip fillers. Brazilian butt lifts. It’s no secret that much of Hollywood beauty isn’t 100 per cent natural.
Many celebrities have opened up about their cosmetic procedures. Take Kaley Cuoco, who was lauded for openly discussing her plastic surgery. Or Dolly Parton, who famously said: “If something is bagging, sagging or dragging, I’ll tuck it, suck it or pluck it.”
But there’s also a plethora of stars who dodge or outright deny that they’ve had work done – despite seemingly drastic and overnight transformations.
Kylie Jenner repeatedly rebuffed rumours she had lip fillers before eventually copping to having the work done. (She later said she regretted lying and should have “just been honest and upfront.”) And Tyra Banks eventually admitted to secretly getting a nose job early in her career after years of denying plastic surgery rumours, writing in her 2018 memoir “I admit it!”
Imagine you’re a very successful, talented person and you’re held under a microscope for body image things you’ve never even thought about
Yet some stars never come forward. And with the rising popularity of more subtle, injectable procedures, like Botox and lip fillers, it’s difficult to know if a celebrity has altered their appearance.
