Chris O'Dowd never returns borrowed designer suits
It’s no secret that Hollywood stars are under pressure to look young – it’s what the entertainment industry demands. Therefore, many of them are willing to do whatever it takes to stay fresh-looking and radiant and Botox is one of Hollywood’s favorite anti-age treatments. While most celebs won’t admit to using it, there are those who openly speak about Botox. Here they are.
Jennifer Aniston
“People think that I do a lot of injections, but I don’t,” Jennifer Aniston told InStyle two years ago. “I’m not saying that I haven’t tried it … but I see how it’s a slippery slope.”
Nicole Kidman
The Oscar-winner revealed last year what many had long assumed – she was using Botox. Nicole admitted to trying Botox, but told TV Movie that she didn’t like how her forehead felt afterward and that she doesn’t use it anymore. “I didn’t like how my face looked afterward. Now I don’t use it anymore – I can move my forehead again,” she said.
Courteney Cox
Courtney Cox is open with her use of Botox: “Aging gracefully is one thing, but trying to slow it down is another. Sometimes I use Botox. One time I did too much, though. I feel weird if I can’t move my face, and that one time I overdid it, I felt trapped in my own skin. I don’t have a problem with any of that stuff; if it makes you feel better about yourself and it’s done properly, then fine.” she says.
Kelly Ripa
In an interview with Elle magazine, Kelly Ripa admitted that she uses Botox in her armpits to control sweating. She also said she figured that since the doctor already had the needle out, she’d take a stab or two in the face once in a while. “It’s the Botox. Every seven months or so my eyelid skin rests on my eyelashes. So I feel like it makes my makeup artist’s life easier, and it makes my eyes look a little more open on TV, which is where I happen to work right now,” Kelly said.
Sharon Osbourne
Sharon Osbourne was one of the first celebs to openly admit to injections. “I get Botox injections for frown lines on my forehead,” she revealed to People in 2003. “I’ve been having it for a couple of years. My kids wouldn’t let me have it when I was going through chemo.” On her talk show, The Sharon Osbourne Show, she said: “I think that Botox is one of the best things that’s ever been created for cosmetic surgery.”
Jenny McCarthy
“I go every two months,” Jenny McCarthy revealed in an interview with People Magazine. “My tricks are, I get Botox in my forehead -I just have my doctor do a little shot there…I believe in just a little bit. It allows you to keep that mobility in your face. It’s a great little secret.”
Jamie Lee Curtis
“I’ve had a little plastic surgery. I’ve had a little lipo. I’ve had a little Botox. And you know what? None of it works. None of it,” Curtis revealed to More magazine in 2002. “Ten years ago, before anybody did that, I had fat taken from underneath my eyes because I was on a movie and I was puffy. And I remember the cameraman saying, ‘I can’t shoot her now.’ I remember being mortified. And yet, you know what? Nobody tells you if you take fat from your body in one place, it comes back in another place,” she added.
Kim Kardashian
At first Kim denied having Botox, but in a 2010 episode of Keeping up with the Kardashians, the reality star had Botox injections by her eye. She thought she had an allergic reaction, and swore off the stuff. In July of 2012, Kim told Now Daily that she did swear off Botox — by her eyes, not in her forehead.
Simon Cowell
Cowell has said that using Botox is “no more unusual than using toothpaste.” In his biography Sweet Revenge: The Intimate Life of Simon Cowell, the X Factor judge is quoted as being a fan of Botox, saying, “It simply works. You do it twice a year. Who cares? And it balances my smoking and drinking.”
Vanessa Williams
Back in 2010, the actress said: “The latest thing I’m into is Botox, which I’ve been doing every six months. I do it lightly because I want to have an expressive face that has movement…My goal is to look like me. I have four kids. I’m proud of my age. I just don’t want to look tired or angry. The doctor that I go to for my Botox does it gently, so I can act, which is important as an actress, to be able to be expressive.
Kathy Griffin
Botox is nothing compared to other cosmetic procedures Kathy Griffin has had. Starting at age 26 with a nose job, the 52 year old star has openly discussed the good and the bad of her procedures. Since her nose job, Griffin has also had liposuction, a brow lift, chemical peels, cosmetic dental implants, and of course Botox. Griffin describes her procedures as sometimes frightening and the ones she has remained awake for as “disconcerting.”
At least Jen hasn’t gone overboard, she still has some wrinkles on her face, so if she is getting Botox, she’s not abusing it.
Awe I love Vanessa Williams she was simply amazing in the “Desperate Housewives” TV show, I guess this is the kind of woman I would like to be in my life as well. Strong and a little bit “bitch*”, but at the same time very kind and supportive towards the people I love and care about. Those are the features that are very rare in the day of today, as people are so use to see only the bad things about each other, that they don’t really care about the words they are saying to each other or about the things they are doing , all they want and are interesting in, is simply to use someone for their own benefit, and usually they can do it for some time, but little by little people they were using realize that and simply push away people who were using them, as everything we do in this world certainly comes back to us.
I think it is pretty obvious that Courtney Cox is using Botox, as she was always doing some funny faces during the entire “Friends” TV show, so while making those faces of course she got some new rids that she doesn’t really need. And due to the fact that she is quite skinny, those rids are pretty obvious on her face, so using the help of a doctor in her case is very understanding, the only thing I do not really understand is why Jennifer Aniston is doing this thing, or even ever did, as her beauty is so natural and radiant that I think she never really needed this kind of procedures, I love everything she is doing, as she is simply amazing, she radiates kindness and positive energy, sometimes it is needed so much to have such person by your side, a person who will make your mood better without even doing something special.
I guess Nicole Kidman has really made a huge mistake when she used some chemical injections, as her face is not looking natural at all, actually she never even did look natural, because her skin is too white for her hair color. Hmm, I am not really sure what is going on there in her mind, probably she is just afraid of the fact that she is getting old, but I think it is a huge mistake from her, because this way she is simply killing all the good things about her, the things that once upon a time have made her famous and the actress that she has became today. I think women should learn the fact that they can look gorgeous even in the moment when they are getting old little by little; there is a certain charm in each moment of women’s life.
