Joan Rivers is currently in Britain where she judged the Miss Great Britain contest. In a very honest, and hilarious, interview with The Daily Mail, she gives a bit of insight into her many plastic surgeries. Rivers is 73 but looks like....well....a 73 year old trying to look 43.
"Look around," she says. "I am not a supermodel. I am not the one the men fall hopelessly in love with. I did not come from the lucky sperm club with all the money."She goes on about her surgeries which include (but are probably not limited to) an eye lift, two face lifts, at least one nose job and massive amounts of botox and says that her plastic surgeon now refuses to see her. She also talks about the guilt she still feels about her husband's suicide. He killed himself just two days after she left him. She was having liposuction when he died. But, to lighten up the mood a bit, here is my favorite quote from the interview:
Is that why she has had so much work done? How ugly was the teenage Joan Rivers — or rather, how ugly did she think she was?
"I was not the prettiest girl in the class," she admits. "I was a very ordinary girl. If you come from my family your mother tells you over and over again that you are the most beautiful and wonderful thing and suddenly you go to school and you realise you're a pig."
And so she set out to remake her face, although she claims Hollywood is full of new faces. "An albatross around my neck," she calls it — she is the only one who's honest about it. "I have done what everyone does in California," she says. "Goldie Hawn has a totally different face from when she started. I believe in plastic surgery," she says.
"My motto is 'better a new face coming out of an old car than an old face coming out of a new car'. Spend your money on you."It's a great interview. You can read it here.
