To think that a lot of genuinely beautiful people ruin themselves with plastic surgery etc?

YABU Just looking at Barbara Hershey and Priscilla Presley is sad.

Take my word for it. Helen Mirren has had a fab face lift.

Cheryl Cole looks so weird on the Voice but I can't work out what she's done.

I can’t see that Catherine Zeta Jones looks that much different tbh. Her top lip does look a bit full so maybe she has overdone that.

Victoria Beckham’s mouth is a curious thing these days. It looks like a duck’s bill.

Does she genuinely think it looks good??

I think it's so obvious when people have had work done, my friend's daughter has cheek fillers.

She looks like the Saw mask.

It's so sad that people just aren't comfortable in their own skin.

Bloody reality TV has ramped it up.

Would love everyone to go back to their natural faces and stop focusing on bloody looks. It's so shallow.

Yes, do no harm.

And not exclusively women. I don’t know whether it’s the surgery that makes them look bad or all the other shit they shovel into their faces. All involved should be ashamed of themselves. I couldn’t sleep at night knowing I’d had a hand in mutilating someone into a monstrosity

I think Renee zellweger was a HUGE shock. I thought she looked more like her normal self in Bridget Jones Baby but I remember when the pictures first came out of her on a red carpet event and it was honestly like she had a face transplant.

This thread was the first thing that came to my mind when I just switched on GMB and saw Louise Redknapp’s face.

I’ve always thought she was beautiful and it was refreshing that she hadn’t touched her face. Looks like being single later in life and working with a love islander has made her give in to the pressure.

Great plastic surgery like a light face lift or well done nose job can leave someone looking fantastic. It’s the Botox, fillers and other crap which makes women look awful and weird. Louise is on tv this morning and she has the most plump, tight and shiny cheeks I’ve ever seen on a 45 year old woman, it just looks odd.

You look at poor Courtney Cox with dismay and wonder does she really think she looks better than she would have if she’d aged naturally? She probably looks in the mirror and thinks:

Lines gone: check
Jowls gone: check
Full lips: check
Eyes (whatever the fuck she’s done): check.

Courtney has often spoken out about her regrets of having surgery and says she wishes he hadn’t:

“I would say it’s a common thing you go through as you age, especially in Hollywood," she told People. "You have to accept getting older, and that’s something that I had a hard time doing. [I tried] to keep up with time in a way that was anything other than maintenance. I didn’t realise it until one day I kind of stepped back and went, 'Oh shit. I don’t look like myself.'"

Sadly it's pressure to look a certain way and not to age as it's the younger women who get the parts. Was watching a film the other day (dunno what) and Tom Cruise was the lead and his love interest was about 25? Older women - unless they are lucky - don't get longevity like the men do.

I actually thing CZJ now looks older than her 48 years.

I think Lauren Goodger must be unwell and it's shocking what the surgeons have done.

I can't criticise the women at all. It's alway 'look what they've done to themselves' it's more what society has done to them.

Catherine Zeta Jones probably looks good in photos because her face isn't moving. I was shocked by the lack of movement in the clip of her and how puffy her face is.

I think from photos I’ve seen catherine keta Jones looks great

How funny OP I was thinking exactly this only last night. I stumbled across Ocean’s 8 (fairly crappy film but the clothes are fab!) and was so sad to see that the lovely Sandra Bullock had succumbed to fillers and now looked like she was wearing a weird puffy mask.

I have NO idea why they need to tinker when they are so beautiful in the first place - look at Cheryl Cole/Tweedy/whatever. SO pretty but now looking puffy and lets not even start on those weird, Bratz-doll style lips that the girls go in for now. Just bizarre.

Helen Mirren looks amazing and she must have had a few tweaks. Also I am guessing that Gillian Anderson must have had some work but they are really the only ones who look better now than they did.

I lip read.

It’s really hard to understand people who’ve had fillers and botox. Their lips don’t make the same shapes.

I can spot botox and fillers instantly no matter how subtle.

Megan Fox used to look amazing

Yanbu! There's a mum at school who has had A. Lot. Done. Her poor face is a puffy bulbous mess. She's just had a baby but works as an estate agent so I guess there's pressure to be overly made up but honestly she's terrifying now. You can just see how pretty she would have been before. It's a bloody shame. For the record, I'm ugly as sin and fat to boot but I'm not jealous of her looks.

I was watching His Dark Materials last night and I was surprised to see Anne Marie Duff cast in an older woman role (in my head she’s still the age she was in Shameless). She’s 49, looks it, and I think is beautiful, with a face full of character and even - shock horror - a few wrinkles. When she smiles it lights up the screen.

The worst are the younger women who go for the fillers to achieve the "sex doll" look. The girls from Little Mix were all gorgeous and natural when they first became famous, they' now look really odd with weird lips. Lauren whatsit from Towie is the same.

I can kind of understand it in older women who want to hang on to what they once had, but in women in their 20s or 30s it's crazy.

What people fail to remember though is that the filtered insta snap after all the work isn't reality. Take Kylie Jenner who looks completely different in the TV show vs instagram or Michelle Keegan whose lips were distracting in Our Girl. Fillers look very different when someone is animated as opposed to a still photo.

I think the older celebrities trying to maintain their youth is less disturbing and understandable but plenty take it too far.

I find the younger girls all wanted to change their faces so they all have the same face more concerning. Take lip fillers, so many of them look ridiculous.

I think that fillers and surgery can distort the proportions of the face somehow so that, as a whole, it looks “off”. An example would be Simon Cowell. I’m not sure what he’s had done but the overall effect is just very unnatural.
