The Divine Secrets of a Southern Diva

A lesson in aging gracefully.

Dear Tiara readers-

Help me stop the madness! The fucked up plastic surgery, collagen injecting, living-on-botox and a dream madness. You people look fucking ridiculous.

This entry has been inspired by Lara Flynn Boyle. Now, Lara has had her shares of body issues over the years. Girl was the size of mosquito leg at one time. But she started out beautiful. She had this dark auburn hair against pale freckly skin. I remember her in movies like How I Got Into College and Mobsters and Threesome. She was not your typical beauty. She was interesting and striking. It’s what set her away from the pack.

See?

So, tonight, I was watching Law and Order. There is a reporter in the show and when she first started talking, I thought it sounded like her. She had the dark hair and pale skin. It was a long shot, so I couldn’t really see her face. Then they zoomed in and I thought, “Oh, no. This chicks face is way different.” Show continues and they cut to a close up. I’m like, “NO. WAY.” I got the episode info from my trusty (ha!- that’s a whole nother blog) AT&T U-verse service and looked it up on IMDB. MOTHERFUCK. It was her.

Girl’s face was so bloated that she looked like she’d been submerged in water for the last 4 years. Her mouth is all off like she has a giant herpes scar on her upper lip or like she got punched.

It was seriously some freaky scary shit. And it’s not like she went off and got all fat. She did gain some weight, but her body looks healthy. She’s no where near overweight. That part of her actually looked great. They even got a bikini shot in the show. It was the face. I just can’t believe it.

I googled her and got a few images. None of them do justice to what she looked like. God help anyone who watched that on big screen high def. And not only that, she sounded different. It was the same sultry hoarse voice, but she sounded like she had false teeth and mouth full of plastic. Her fricken face wouldn’t even move when she talked. It was so fucking creepy, man.



Seriously. Who the hell yesses these women to death who do this shit to themsleves? Like Meg Ryan. She’s so, so cute naturally. So what if she was aging a bit? Have you seen her lately? She has a baboon’s ass for lips. Ridiculous.

- Thanking God that fat don’t crack,

    I know, it’s sick. Like I said, I saw her on a preview or something earlier and I ONLY knew it was her because they said her name. It’s just really sad.

    And yes, Meg Ryan looks ridiculous. As does Brit Murphy with her collagen lips. I mean, there’s “Phylis Diller, Joan Rivers, Wayne Newton” syndrome – that’s shit’s scary enough but let’s face it, they were just buttfuck ugly anyway. Kathy Griffen did all that crap (which almost worked to her advantage, really) but when the beautiful people feel obligated to do whatever the hell they’ve been destroying themselves with for no reason? That’s just really, really sad.

    They should’ve all learned from Jennifer Grey.

    I’ve nothing against a little lift if you have an excess of fat hanging off your face, but for Christ sake, just accept the fact that you’re not 20 anymore and stop crying over a wrinkle.
