Why is renee zellweger so ugly

I woke up this morning to a series of pictures and commentaries on what seems to be the brand new face of Renee Zellweger. From certain angles you could mistake her for Robin Wright. Why would someone who was pretty by almost any benchmark, obliterate her entire identity? After all, an actress yes, how non-feminist of me not to say female actor or actor is known for their face, along with their acting chops. Is the pressure to be eternally young really so high that you are willing to become a whole new person if that will prolong your career?

Of course, vanity plays a part. In the film, Death Becomes Her, two rival actresses drink a potion to remain eternally youthful. The roles were played by Goldie Hawn who now looks a little stretched herself and Meryl Streep, who leads the brigade for ageing gracefully. If you can recognise or find the original Mickey Rourke under the new bloated one, good on you. You should look different. It's what I hear whenever I make an appearance on a cable news network.

Any spot — even a short, second hit to deliver a one-sentence answer on Obamacare — mandates 30 minutes in a make-up chair so that I can look different. My hair gets curled, my blemishes covered up, and my lips glossed over.

Cheekbones I don't have turn up, created by a make-up artist. A weird dimple on my left cheek disappears, caked over with foundation. As any of my family members or friends who have watched can tell you: when I turn up on television, I look different. And so we do. And a lot of people will get very rich making you look different. Luxury cosmetic chain store Sephora has had incredibly fast growth. Even if it hurts. Even if it's dangerous. Even if it's expensive. Spending on plastic surgery has rebounded in recent years; in , it came back to pre-recession levels — that's a quicker recovery than, say, the job market.

In , 11 million Americans used plastic surgery to make their bodies look different. The nearer you are to the public eye, the worse it gets. There are the celebrity blogs suggesting various actresses who need to lose a few pounds, the magazines circling the cellulite in beach photos, the late-night comics making jokes about new hairstyles.

If you don't, we're going to notice. I've seen it, in a small way, every time I've done TV. When Zellweger stepped out on the red carpet at ELLE magazine's Women in Hollywood event in , both social media and mainstream news outlets lit up with commentary about the then year-old's VERY different look.

When asked about the commentary shortly after the internet commentary went into overdrive, Zellweger told People : "I'm glad folks think I look different.

I am healthy. For a long time I wasn't doing such a good job with that. I took on a schedule that is not realistically sustainable and didn't allow for taking care of myself," she said. I was aware of the chaos and finally chose different things. Perhaps I look different. Who doesn't as they get older?! The fact that her face was scrutinized on major news channels did bother her.

She thinks the whole thing was really an indication of a bigger problem. She heard it and she wants us to do better! Error: No connected account.
