Keeping It Real

Looks are genetically determined. Whether one chooses to change it or not - via enhancement or surgery - is anybody’s prerogative.

Beauty enhancement and cosmetic surgery are two different things ‘though. While the former is about intensifying and improving one’s features, the latter is more drastic with the purpose of altering ones looks.

Cosmetic surgery is more than just enhancement of one’s appearance - it’s about changing your life. It maybe a facelift, a breast enlargement / reduction,liposuction, an operation to correct your ears, eyes or nose – it’s one of the toughest decisions you would ever make in your life.

Most celebrities – local and foreign – subscribe to this, saying that the procedure/s done on them had indeed made a big turnaround in their lives as far as their career and personal life are concerned.  While others are proud to admit it, most prefer not to talk about it and still others would deny even the most obvious operation done.

A lie often uttered will create a life of its own. A few can manage to look beyond the obvious and discover that a surgeon was behind it all – that the means certainly shaped the ends – literally.

Young, little, big star YS is one controversial name when topics like this are raised. To be fair to YS, she wasn’t bad-looking at all even before those surgery rumors came about. She had been called names – “retoke” princess, denial queen,  and many more – yet she maintains and stands by her declaration that she has never undergone any cosmetic procedure ever.

YS was in a mall show where throngs of fans were waiting for her. It was in this event  where YS contradicted and gave herself away. A fan approached her to request to autograph YS’ photo taken during a search she joined eons ago.

YS froze upon seeing… or staring at the photo of herself. After a while, she told the fan, “Ate naman, hindi na ako yan. Di ko na sign yan.”  Hope you get the laugh, FP readers.
