I'm not one to comment on women's looks, normally. But I do think there is something desperately sad about changing your lovely face into something unrecognisable, and irreversible. It's a loss, of a kind. Not sure if it says anything about society or just about Renee. Daily mail link below

I really can't tell anything from those photos. It must be a quiet day for the Daily Fail

VenusDeWillendorf · 03/11/2013 21:27

Has she done something to her eyes?
Her mouth and cheeks and forehead look the same.

Her eyes look all opened and not the same shape? Maybe the camera got her at the wrong moment- need to see more pics.

It is a shame if she's had surgery though..... her face was very distinctive, and it made her fortune! Wonder how she'll look as Bridget Jones, not as herself....

Maybe he's happy with her new look as she can see!!

VenusDeWillendorf · 03/11/2013 21:28

She is happy.... Freudian spelling there maybe?

Heartbrokenmum73 · 03/11/2013 21:29

a) why the Fail link? Why? Whyyyyyy? I clicked before I realised.

b) I honestly thought it was Sarah Jessica Parker!

TheWickedWitchOfTheWest · 03/11/2013 21:31

It is sad, she's only 44 yet looks older now as she's got that sort of cat like look they all get when they've had loads of botox. It's like all the character has gone from her face, she looks like a completely different person.

TrumptonVandal · 03/11/2013 21:35

I think she's had an eye lift. Catherine ZJ and Louis Walsh have had them too.

Thants · 03/11/2013 21:40

Wow she looks so different. You can barely tell it's her! I can't understand why anyone would do this.

Banono · 03/11/2013 21:53

Oooooh, that's bad.

LoveSewingBee · 03/11/2013 21:54

Really sad. And this is what puts pressure on teenage girls .... If a 44 year old cannot stand up for herself and withstand pressure to look perfect, how can we expect teenage girls to do so?

stopgap · 03/11/2013 21:57

Definitely an eye lift. She looks like every other woman in her forties and fifties I see in NYC.

Littleredsquirrel · 03/11/2013 21:57

Blimey i wouldn't have had a clue who it was. She looks so different.

tracypenisbeaker · 03/11/2013 21:57

If someone showed me a picture and said 'Who's this?' I would never have guessed. That's not me slating her, btw.

Lazysuzanne · 03/11/2013 22:55

I'm sure she'll be back to her old self when the botox wears off a bit!

Littleredsquirrel · 04/11/2013 07:50

That's not just botox though.

Mimishimi · 04/11/2013 07:59

I can understand why she did it. I have small eyes too and age doesn't make things better although I wouldn't have it done personally. She's got the pressure of a film career to worry about though.I don't think she has to live up to a Bridget Jones ideal

Littleredsquirrel · 04/11/2013 08:06

I have little eyes too and hers were disappearing a bit. its just she doesn't look anything like herself now.

Don't get me wrong I think botox is the best thing since sliced bread, but changing her face that much surely can't help her career, look what happened to the girl from dirty dancing when she changed her nose. Her career nosedived (boom boom) because nobody recognised her.

CoolaSchmoola · 04/11/2013 08:12

They're just bad pictures. In all of them bar one she's either talking or mid movement - everyone looks weird in bad pictures.

I'd say it was a slow news day coupled with bad pictures that they needed to justify.

valiumredhead · 04/11/2013 08:32

I'd never have recognised her. She's had an eye lift, hasn't she?

NotYoMomma · 04/11/2013 08:34

her eyebrows look lower!

its like Jennifer grey after dirty dancing. now she is totally generic

MrsLouisTheroux · 04/11/2013 08:37

Am I looking at different pictures?! She looks the same to me in all of them. Just different expressions. Am I missing something?!

Mckayz · 04/11/2013 08:41

I didn't think it was Renee in the first picture. Looks nothing like her.

buss · 04/11/2013 08:46

She has no eye liners on in the first pic - that would change the shape of her eyes

plus she always put on weight to play Bridget Jones and that can change the shape of your face also

buss · 04/11/2013 08:47

looked again - eye make up is different in 2nd pic and her eyebrows are very different also

tobiasfunke · 04/11/2013 08:50

I had a look on Perez Hilton site (DH blocked the DM on all our computers) and I wouldn't have recognized her. In those pictures she is just posing for the cameras. Now she looks like someone else entirely. That is a little sad really.

AscoyneDAscoyne · 04/11/2013 09:42

I would never have known it was her just from the photos, tis a shame
