Joan Rivers Comments on Plastic Surgery

A recent article contains some of Joan Rivers' comments on plastic surgery. Here is an excerpt:

Her collaboration with Valerie Frankel, titled "Men Are Stupid … And They Like Big Boobs: A Woman's Guide to Beauty Through Plastic Surgery," is "really a serious book, but I wrote it funny, as if I'm talking to you — because I'm funny. … If you want to put a chin in, go to the chapter on chins. If you want to raise your breasts, it will tell you every thing you want to know."To research the guide, which offers helpful information on the gamut of cosmetic surgery options, she and her co-writer interviewed 25 plastic surgeons. "They are so boring, these men," she said... In spite of the title, which she claims is something Marilyn Monroe once said to her, Rivers recommends plastic surgery as "something you should do for yourself.""But society is based on looks," she said. "And anyone that says that's not so, is an idiot. If you think big boobs make you look nice, put them in."Men should have work done too, she said. "I hate a turkey neck on anyone."Always up front about her own plastic surgery, which she began in college with her nose being "thinned, not fixed," Rivers added a postscript to anyone who doesn't think they need it. "If you are happy with the way you look, that's wonderful. How lucky you are."

Boring??? The truth hurts sometimes...

Bingung nih mau milih yang mana? Followers atau GFC ya?

Hampir satu minggu ini saya benar2 dibuat bingung dengan

follower-nya blogger, gimana gak ya? pertama mulai dari gejala aneh dimana
blog o-om.com mulai kehilangan follower count yang awalnya berkisar 1086
followers dan sekarang hanya tersisa 714 followers. Awalnya saya mengira cuma blog
ini aja yang mengalami hilangnya jumlah followers, namun setelah dapat informasi
dari beberapa teman dan sempat juga langsung menanyakan ke blogger sahabat om
kang Rohman..ooh ternyata sama
juga, semua followers ternyata mengalami nasib yang sama :(

Gak sampai disitu saja, beberapa blog termasuk o-om.com dari kemaren
sampai saat ini sepertinya sudah tidak lagi menampilkan widget followers ini.
Sekarang yang terlihat malah title Follower ( ) doank tanpa dihiasi
wajah2 Cantik dan Ganten khasnya blogger hehehe. huh..jadi sia-sia deh tutorial
yang dulu pernah saya buat untuk membuat tampilan follower lebih menarik

disini.

Informasi yang lebih mengejutkan datang dari

Blogger Buzz, yang ternyata widget followers ini  akan segera pensiun
dan tergantikan dengan sodara barunya

Google Friend Connect (GFC). Mungkin beberapa rekan sudah melihat juga
perubahan widget ini di blog masing2.

Nah yang sekarang jadi masalah bukan suka apa tidaknya dengan perubahan
terbaru follower ke GFC, kalo saya sendiri sih ya ngikut aja, mau gimana
lagi namanya juga numpang jadi ya terserah yang punya rumah aja hehehe. Terus
terang yang bikin bingung saat ini karena saya menampilkan kedua widget ini sekaligus, khan malah lucu kalo ada dua GFC di blog yang sama meski followernya berbeda. Jadi bingung khan harus milih yang mana?

Kira-kira rekan punya masukan gak yang mana meski o-om.com pilih? yang
standar blogger sudah ada sekitar ribuan followers, meski sekarang masih tetap error untuk jumlahnya..sedang yang GFC baru sekitar 740-an saja. Terus terang yang GFC lebih mudah dimodifikasi scriptnya, sedang follower yang baru agak rumit untuk diobok2. Waduh! benar2 pusing dah..Mohon masukan rekan2 ya...

More Details on Usher's Wife Tameka Foster's Plastic Surgery Complications

More details are emerging regarding the complications suffered by Usher's wife Tameka Foster as she underwent liposuction surgery while in Brazil. Apparently her doctor, Brazilian plastic surgeon Dr. Silvio Sterman, planned to perform liposuction on her while she was only two months postpartum. After being placed under general anesthesia she suffered a cardiac arrest and was revived via CPR. She was then placed into a drug-induced coma in order to run tests and make sure she was stabilized. She has now been discharged from the hospital and is said to be "doing very well."

I do not perform any cosmetic surgery on women who are less than 6 months postpartum. There is no scientific studies which determine that 6 months is a mandatory time frame, but I believe the changes that occur in a woman's body (both physical and hormonal) can persist for months after a baby is born. Liposuction just 2 months after giving birth? In my opinion that is too soon.

Mickey Rourke Admits to Plastic Surgery by Hack Surgeon

According to Monsters and Critics, Oscar-nominated actor Mickey Rourke has admitted to having plastic surgery by a hack plastic surgeon. He reportedly stated,

"Most of it was to mend the mess of my face because of the boxing, but I went to the wrong guy to put my face back together... I had my nose broken twice. I had five operations on my nose and one on a smashed cheekbone... I had to have cartilage taken from my ear to rebuild my nose and a couple of operations to scrape out the cartilage because the scar tissue wasn't healing properly. That was one of the most painful operations, but the worst was hemorrhoids."

It's funny that he admits to having hemorrhoids but doesn't admit having a facelift, which he appears to have had. For my opinions on his previous surgery, click here.

I hope he wins the Oscar tonight. I saw his performance in The Wrestler and think it's amazing. He really deserves it. I'd much rather see him win it instead of that smug Sean Penn.

Layanan U2WS ini kayaknya hanya support untuk domain berbayar saja, jadi domain gratis *.co.cc
*. blogspot.com dan *.wordpress.com sepertinya belum bisa di kalkulasi harganya..
tapi jangan kawatir, masih ada kok fasilitas lainnya yang bisa rekan coba.

Cosmetic Surgeon Goes After Joan Rivers to Get Publicity

A general/vascular/cosmetic surgeon in California has just sent out a press release attacking Joan Rivers' guide to plastic surgery. In his press release he states,

"While Joan Rivers certainly has a right to hawk her beliefs about plastic surgery, her book and the half dozen reality shows that focus on plastic surgery undermine the credibility of the beauty enhancement business."

Who is this guy to talk? He's a general and vascular surgeon who practices cosmetic surgery! To me it looks like a blatant attempt to hop on Ms. Rivers' coattails and get a little media coverage. I find Joan's book well-written, humorous, and chock-full of useful information for anyone considering plastic surgery. Maybe he didn't like the chapter where she encourages everyone to seek a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

Click here for the press release. To purchase a copy of Joan's book, click below.
