AIBU to think this woman has utterly destroyed her face?

[Balsam]

She does look a bit odd. Funny how trying to stave off aging can sometimes make you look worse than if you'd just let it happen.

[valiumredhead]

She's not as bad as I was expecting tbh!

[ripstheirthroatoutliveupstairs]

Her face is a lot thinner than before.
I wouldn't mind looking like her and I am only 47.

[valiumredhead]

I think what is odd is the creases either side of her mouth - people who have face lifts only seem to develop 3 or 4 creases over time where as normally you just have your 'smile' line.

[chandellina]

what's the big deal - i don't think she looks that freakish. Can you imagine every time your photo is taken someone is looking for the shot that makes you look a bit bizarre?

[GetOrfMo1Land]

Same as valium - not as bad as I thought.

I don't think anyone ever should have anyting done to their lips.

But other than that - yes she has had fillers an botox, but she doesn't look as hideous as some.

Bless her - have always had a soft spot for Melanie Griffith. Love Working Girl.

[WitchesBrewIsMyFriend]

ITs not her face that made me gasp, its her FEET!

[LaurieFairyCake]

It could be worse. It's a bit odd round the mouth and jaw but at least she's left the crows feet alone.

I think she didn't have a face that would age well at the beginning - she was stunning in her youth but by the time she got to her 30's she was starting to look older. It's all down to genes, someone like Joanna Lumley or Helen Mirren have been very lucky with the ageing process, poor Melanie hasn't.

[Shakey1500]

Wasn't as bad as I expected either tbh.

[ForkInTheForeheid]

How disappointing, clicked on your link having just read the thread title and presumed you were going to have a go at the DM for it's disgusting attitude to women as public objects to be rated by their attractiveness. But no, you wanted to reinforce their message that she looks weird.

Right... wanders away back to feminism forum in a daze.

[pinkdelight]

The drinking and collagen were obviously not a great move, but who of us would really come out well from a young and old comparison shot? Just a shame she's part of a looks-obsessed industry. She's not that bad really, not worthy of a finger-pointing freakshow hate piece like this.

[Slacking9to5]

She made herself look weird, fork. She looked perfectly fine before she injected her face with fillers, her fore head with botox and plumped up her lips.

It's very much a feminist issue, that women in the public eye feel compelled to do this to themselves. If she's left well alone, the press wouldn't be poking fun at how awful she looks. If a man did that to themselves ( Simon Cowell) then they'd be held up to ridicule in teh papers too.

[GetOrfMo1Land]

I think when she was younger she looked a lot like her mother, who was a beautiful Hitchcock blonde. I like her.

[valiumredhead]

Oh Gosh - her feet!

Tbh I think unless you have REALLY good plastic surgery, then yes people do look 'weird.'

Sharon Osbourne had a fantastic surgeon but having seen her recently she looks like she's had one too many fillers. It's a very fine line.

[DaydreamDolly]

She's only 54! She looks 10 years older. I'm guessing that's not the look she was going for.

[RedBlanket]

She looks alright If she put a bit of weight on, she would need all the fillers in her face to plump it out.

[ScarahStratton]

She was lovely until she started messing about with her face.

[PerryCombover]

I think she looks okay and better than I would have predicted

[Slacking9to5]

Oh come on! She's only 54! She looks godawful!

[ScarahStratton]

She looks like she's melting.

[cheekeymonster]

That reminds me must go and get halloween costumes sorted

[CleverClod]

She looks ten years older?

Come on!!!! She looks at least 20 years older. I'm exactly the same age as her and my face is nowhere near as lined as hers is. Those crows feet

[AurraSing]

I think the "work" is quite recent and the lighting in the photo isn't good. In a few more weeks and with a professional lighting crew round her at all times, she'll look fine.
