Bristol Palin Admits To Face Surgery, Claims It Was ‘Medical’

Posted by Christian Allaire on May 11th, 2011

With many noticing her new ‘look,’ Bristol Palin is finally admitting that she had work done, E Online reports.

The 20-year-old is admitting that she got some work done to her jaw. But Palin claims it was done for medical reasons, not to improve her appearance.

“I had corrective jaw surgery,” she tells ‘US Weekly,’ saying she went under the knife back in December 2010 shortly after her ’Dancing With The Stars’ exit.

“Yes, it improved the way I look, but this surgery was necessary for medical reasons…so my jaw and teeth could properly realign. I don’t obsess over my face,” she insists.

Palin says she’s happy with her new face. So are we.

“I am absolutely thrilled with the results,” she says. “I look older, more mature, and don’t have as much of a chubby little baby face!”

If you look at the before and after pictures it’s so obvious she had surgery, so I’m glad she actually owned up to it. I don’t agree, however, that it was done for medical reasons. I mean, last time I checked, when doctors did jaw work they also didn’t remove chin fat and give you a prominent jaw line. But hey, I’m no doctor. She looks good though.

Heidi Montag FORCED to Turn Down DWTS!

Posted by Megan MacKay on January 17th, 2011

If you’ve ever thought to yourself  “Poor Heidi Montag is just rolling downhill. Thank God she never did Dancing With the Stars!” you may want to think again.

It turns out Heidi was offered a guest spot on the hit reality show, but she was forced to turn it down due to her contractual obligations with MTV’s The Hills and NBC’S I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here.

Dontcha hate it when your starring roles on two separate reality shows make it impossible to star on another reality show?

Now that both of Heidi’s contracts are up, it would be a perfect time for her to slip on her dancing shoes…if she hadn’t have gotten those TEN surgeries two years ago, that is!

“[The offer] was before her surgeries and so I’m not sure if she wants to risk it now,” a source explained. “She already took an elbow from a dancer on the set of her song, Overdosin’, and she’s scared of getting hurt.”

The moral of the story: if you want to dance on a hit reality program, DON’T get G-cup breasts because they WILL get in the way and make you crazy paranoid!

Oh Heidi. You never cease to amuse us.

U2′s Bono Recovering from Emergency Spinal Surgery

Posted by Jacob Morris on May 21st, 2010

U2′s Bono is currently recovering from an emergency spinal surgery following an injury he suffered while preparing for U2’s upcoming 360-Degree tour, which was schedule to launch on June 3rd.

E! Online is reporting that the 50-year-old musician was originally supposed to meet up with his fellow band members in Salt Lake City for rehearsals on Tuesday, but because of the injury that likely won’t be possible.

“He was admitted to a specialist neuro surgery unit in a Munich hospital,” a statement posted on U2.com says, “…Bono will spend the next few days there, before returning home to recuperate.”

Although not directly said in the statement, it is unlikely that the 360-Degree tour will go on as planned.

“It’s unfortunate that we’re inconveniencing fans,” said Paul McGuinnes, U2’s band manager, “and we will make plans to reinstate these dates as soon as possible.”

More info on Bono’s condition and what will become of the tour will be released in a statement on U2’s website when it is available.

Usher’s Wife Out Of Hospital

Posted by Ilan Mester on February 19th, 2009

Usher’s wife Tameka Raymond was released form Sírio-Libanês Hospital in São Paulo, Brazil on Monday according to E! Online, after an 11-day stay recuperating from a liposuction surgery. Usher had to cancel his Grammy appearance to see his wife in Brazil.

During her Surgery, Raymond suffered both cardiac and respiratory arrest when she was anesthetized for the liposuction procedure. This prompted doctors to place her in an induced coma for approximately 24 hours in order to avoid “unnecessary complications.”

Although Raymond is no longer in the Sírio-Libanês Hospital, it still isn’t clear if she is staying in Brazil or whether she is on route to the United States.

Usher, 30, and Raymond, 37, have yet to release any details regarding Raymond’s condition. The couple recently welcomed their second son in December.

Posted by Irene Ogrodnik on May 4th, 2008
