Tara’s boob job was a matter of public view after her breast was on scrutiny at one of P-Diddy’s parties. The strap of her dress fell and exposed one breast for a good 15 seconds before she became aware of it.
What was exposed was more than she bargained for. She had had many complications after surgery and was suffering from a red and displaced nipple, as well as lumpiness and scarring on her stomach after liposuction.
The media attention and overall frenzy that followed was unprecedented, as every blog around the world seemed to have posted pictures of the woman in bikinis and revealing outfits. She has now had to have more surgery to correct what the last surgeon did and try to revert back to “normal,” as she has been quoted as saying.
It saddens me whenever I hear of someone else going under the knife. The pressure for actresses to look a certain way is getting so ridiculously out of control, it makes me sick. As for the rest of the population who isn’t under the flash of high-watt bulbs everyday, why the growing number of cosmetic surgeries?
I was quoted in Elevate: the cosmetic enhancement magazine, as saying: “What would the world be without flaws? We all have personality 'flaws' that make us human, so why do we try to attain perfection in our bodies? It disturbs me enormously that we are progressively becoming more desensitized to the dangers and consequences of cosmetic surgery.”
I stand by every word.
