mosey

i suppose i shouldn't but i kindof feel sorry for these celebs for feeling that social pressure to keep themselves from aging. but at the same time it angers me for the ancient argument that they are the role models and how will the rest of us ever be able to grow old gracefully, naturally?

Stephanie

They look creepily.

Now I can't get that image out of my head where they all get get their cheeks cut open so they look like gills and then they put minced beef-like dollops of their own butt cheeks to make their pillowy face cheeks. -- Oh, and now maybe you can't get that image out of your head. Sorry! ;-)

Zoe

aaaaaargh they do look scary...

much as i love fashion and beauty, sometimes I wish we didn't live in quite such a looks-obsessed culture...

Ashe Mischief

Like the others, I don't find this look at all attractive. I look forward to getting older, my face getting slimmer (again), and my glorious cheeks & cheekbones dominating my face.

Louise

Woooargh! scary yes. Kind of sad too, I agree with you mosey, that it must be awful to be under such neurotic pressure that you consider having your face cut open and bits of your arse put in. Ho hum

slanelle

As the years roll on I think we should just get more and more avant garde, that way nobody gives a toss what your face looks like cuase your clothes are soooo amazing - word to Mads and Louis Vuitton, keep the wendy under cover vaginoplasty or not.

The quest for eternal youth is going to leave some nothing more than an extra out of a horror movie. I think a little subtle intervention is ok but there is a point to just age gracefully.

Lady Ape

Sandra Bullock is going the same way. Did you see her on Jonathan Ross last night? Daughter apparent to the Bride of Wildenstein.

Alicia

I didn't even know that was Catherine...my goodness.

Saphyra Runa

Ahhh, I was wondering who that was in the middle and end pics. I would have never, ever guessed CZJ. Is that?! Pam Anderson? If it is, it is only because I guessed by the boobage.

Maybe my memory is shoddy after all these years, but I don't think these women had puffy cheeks when they were young. Did they?

Sister Wolf

Aging gracefully is an oxymoron. With a few exceptions, the whole thing is a nightmare. I want the cheeks but not the duck bill.

Fashionitsa

I prefer to see ladies like Helen Mirren, Meryl Streep or Diane Keaton, who look good for their age.

jennine

yikes... well darryl hannah has looked that way for the last 10 years... and yeah.. as far as helen mirren, meryl streep and dianne keaton, they've all had some work done.

these are just extreme cases. i worked in the real estate industry in california for a long time and saw a bunch of people have work done. if done properly, it doesn't make you look younger.. it never does... but it does make you look like you're 'aging gracefully'.

personally i'm not against it, it's easy to say that you're looking forward to aging when you're 25, but when bags form under your eyes that won't go away, a wrinkle between the eyes that makes you look like you're frowning even when you're smiling these aren't the pretty wrinkles we think we're going to get.

honestly, i don't mind getting older, i just don't want to look like i'm tired and angry.

indigotangerine

i was quite alarmed at how much she is beginging to resemble john travolta

Julia Smith

@ Jennine: laugh more, then you'll only get laughter lines!

brandi
