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...
