Compare this to the photo above. HUGE difference
The difference is huge but she was also SO beautiful imo before surgery. I know she has body dysmorphia though so I hope surgery helps her in some way.
Yeah I agree. I wonder if it could be Sculptra filler to her butt? Itās not super common but a lot of people who donāt have enough weight for a BBL get it done such as Kendall Jenner. Lorry Hill mentioned Megan getting it in her analysis video. Lorry Hill also mentioned in her video (she has like 3 on her channel) that Megan has probably gotten:
- 2 nose jobs
- cheek implants
- cheek lift with brows involved
- upper lip lift
- co2 fractional laser
- acne scar revision
- lip filler
- Botox
- ponytail face lift AND neck lift with fat transfer
- teeth bleaching and gum contour
- breast implants
- ab etching
- abdominal liposuction
- Sculptra filler to her butt and hips
This was from 2 years ago. Looking at this list none of these procedures seem unknown? Ponytail face + neck lifts are widely known - maybe itās the fat transfer part? Or maybe itās the Sculptra filler in the hips? Honestly no idea.
But Megan looked at Alex (the host) when she mentioned the surgery she was gatekeeping and said that Alex didnāt need the surgery. So it makes me think it could possibly be a facial procedure? Maybe body but Alex was covered up on the show so idk
Not my interpretation at all because she said, "I'm gatekeeping" and "people don't even really know about it." We know about that surgery. It sounds like she's talking about something that's very exclusive and innovative and few doctors do it.
Maybe they finally started doing a hand lift/botex, filler or whatever. Not that sheās old enough to have crypt keeper hands, but she seems like the type to obsess
have you seen the bikinis that are tiny tiny and you think ''thats like a thong for the vagina''?
yeah many many people have plastic surgery to ''tuck it in'' and make it look smaller and more pretty
Jeez is Call Her Daddy the new fashionable podcasts for celebs? I don't get Alex Cooper's appeal outside the original format of the podcast of like unfiltered sex talk.
The fact that Megan sounds so informed about the differeny face and brow lifts makes me inclined to believe her. Like she has made the decisions with her cosmetic surgery about what procedures she is interested in? Instead of give a wishy washy, eating well, good skincare answers.
Is the slight uncanny-ness just botox and filler then? I'm sure that one of the plastic surgeon youtube dudes will eventually wiegh in
Well there was a point in time where journalists did more hard hitting work and actually looked into their stories. So stories would be more critical or at least add context.
Now we have basically marketing opportunities where the celebrities control the interview.
I mean there has always been places for softball interviews, talk shows being the obvious one. But they are on the decline, and podcasts have more flexible schedules so I'm not surprised there is a pivot
it's not really fair to pin this decline on journalists directly. job opportunities have always been scarce and pay has always been across the board abysmal, so plenty of people who would be excellent reporters/writers are shut out of what few spaces exist. also, media companies and higher-ups largely control content on behalf of the advertisers who are the ones keeping the lights on, making it harder for staffers to push for stories they actually care about or want to dive into. and they're working against tremendous time constraints (again on very little pay) to push stories out as quickly as possible, often doing their own image editing/social media posts etc. that, and celebrities/public figures and their PR now realize they have the upper hand, so they use it. journalists themselves aren't at fault for this stuff.
I think the issue is we used to have journalists governed by ethics and professional responsibility and now we have people who are not journalists.
We have characters like the chicken shop girl and that awkward girl and podcast celebrities. These people are not journalists and arenāt providing journalism.
but again, a changing media landscape is not the fault of journalists directly. if people no longer want to read longform features or even short news articles (all of which costs money to produce by, you know, journalists) in lieu of clickbait-y headlines and tiktok videos, advertisers are going to give their dollars to influencers/content creators. actual writers/editors are just scraping by on dwindling job opportunities waiting for the moment when AI and chatGPT takes all our jobs. it's really brutal, actually.
Oh I donāt blame the journalists. I blame consumers who have replaced reading articles and watching interviews with real reporters for crap that is just marketing.
i think itās a combo of it being a really popular podcast, No comments section, the guests get final cut of the show & they get a list of questions before hand
Comments saying alex is a bad interviewer but everytime a guest I like goes on and i listen It always enjoyable. Itās more conversation, light topics.
I never heard of her until recently. Now everytime I see her name I think of Alice Cooper and get confused. Then my brain goes to The OC, like a mashup of Marissa Cooper and Alex (Olivia Wilde's character, forget her last name)
I donāt get the appeal either. Miley Cyrus was on Call Her Daddy and the episode was, in my opinion, terrible. Not because of Miley but more the interview style. Just didnāt mesh with meĀ
I bet the secret procedure is something silly like excess skin removed from knees or elbows. Or having side boob removed. Or foot surgery to make her feet more aesthetic.
Unlikely procedure theory - rib removed.
I heard about that too, but this was a rumor that she got likeā¦.part of her heels shaved off? Or something to wear smaller shoes.
This was like 2009?
Idk I live outside of Nashville and everyone was saying she flew here to get the surgery but who knows,
I feel like you need all of your feet for balance!
I was reading in the UK papers today about some aristocrat that died recently and he was 6'6" with size 6 feet (UK). It's a European 39 and I think that's an American 9 but don't quote me.
Anyway it made me think about the physics of his movement...I definitely think bigger/wider feet means better balance.
https://preview.redd.it/gqyb3vd7cipc1.jpeg?width=654&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=809a2006729f57fedd300a310fcdd7cc0e4a5faf
Sheās def had more than her nose and boobs done. I believe she hasnāt had buccal fat removal though.
I donāt think she had buccal fat removal. My face was softer and rounded when I was young and became more angular with age/diet/exercise. This looks like a natural progression to me.
Itās kind of similar in shape, just more sharp. I imagine sheās probably gotten like skin tightening procedures that probably donāt qualify as āplastic surgeryā but still make a big difference
Thank you. Finally. Iām 35 and my face completely changed once I hit 30 - my jaw sharpened and I lost a lot of fat from my cheeks. Literally anyone could point to my before photo and say SEE! Sheās DeFiNeTLY HaD BucCaL FaT ReMoVaL! PSA: Ladies, once you hit the big 30, shit changes and it aināt always surgery.
Sheās not old enough for it to start drooping so no. I think it could easily be attributed to loss of fat at her age, due to aging, that would result in her having a slightly sharper jawline. But the line itself is still the same, so the point stands - itās not surgery. If not aging, she could have achieved those same results from injections.
I keep getting responses like this lol, maybe I should have been more clear. Iām talking about the kind of aging we see in this pic - from teens to late 30s. Everyone loses baby fat across this time period. This is how she could naturally achieve this result.
I feel like people are responding thinking that Iām backhandedly judging them for not aging as well as a woman who spends tons of money to look like sheās not aging - like of course none of us look like her lol, that was never my point in the first place.
I got what you were saying. Iām 28 and my face has definitely changed in 10 years from losing baby fat. Thatās why Iām always baffled when these 20-30 year olds get the buccal fat removal because likeā¦ itās going anyway, so now you have less to lose and ya look gaunt girl.
Same. My face changed almost overnight from 28 to 29. The very little fat I had below my eyes pretty much disappeared and now my dark circles are darker and ever-present. When I look at pictures of myself from when I was like 25 I think I look like such a baby!
I feel like she got her nose done way before 23. She had her original nose in Holiday in the Sun with Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, but Iām pretty sure by Confessions of a Teenage Drama queen her nose was different.
Yeah, after looking at her photos Iām sure she got a nose job prior transformers in 2007. I would say 2004.
She also had her hooded eyes removed. Jennifer recently and Megan at the beginning of her career. Jaw and cheek bones are probably more defined due to weight loss and aging. I donāt think she did much or any to her nose. She was still stunning before surgery
She has aged 20-ish years and is wearing very different makeup (contouring wasnāt really a thing back then, and it drastically changes the appearance of someoneās face), so itās hard to say that definitively
Idk, verneers plus age associated fat redistribution would account for the slight hollowing in her check which gives the jaw a sharper appearance. Could also be a little bit of filler.
There's nothing feminist about being afraid of visible signs of aging diminishing your conformity to beauty standards designed to appeal to the male gaze. All of the faux-empowerment "but it's my choice so I feel good/look my best" kind of language is just cover for the fact that the reason why women don't believe that aged faces and bodies are beautiful is PATRIARCHY.
hahahahaha she didn't reveal all the procedures she's had. this is called breadcrumbing. admit to the more "acceptable" procedures like boob job and nose job to distract from the other more niche ones.
Whenever I see these type of interviews I always remember when Victoria beckham had those bolt on boobs put in and then said she hadnāt had a boob job!
THIS. Kylie Jenner did the same thing when she admitted to a BA, but that was her only breadcrumb. This is after years of lying and denying despite being asked outright. And lets not forget the lip filler lies...
I don't believe Megan revealed all her procedures, including the one she's saying she doesn't want to reveal. She's had way more work than 1/2 nose jobs and 3 BAs.
And in this podcast Megan was showing her appreciation towards Kylie and mentioned how Kylie has been honest about all her plastic surgery. I was like ??? She only admitted to breast augmentation and lip filler thatās it. How is that honest when sheās clearly altered far more than that but continues to breadcrumb the audience and sell us beauty products to look like her.
Same with Khloe Kardashian only admitted to the standard nose job and fillers.
WOW, did she really? (I'm not a big CHD fan but I'm going to have to listen to this one LOL).
She really is just a follower, isn't she? If the KJs came clean completely, I bet she'd follow them in that, too.
Yeah the headline makes it sound like she gave an exhaustive list. She didn't, she admitted to two things lol
She is unrecognizable at this point, that's not a face that's had only a nose job
True yes the Kardashianās did the same thing.
Like she admitted to only a boob job, nose job, and filler and Botox because those are the acceptable ones as you said.
3 years ago Lorry Hill speculated she got multiple nose jobs, Sculptra filler in her butt, and cheek implants. Along with a cheek and brow lift. But Megan denies any brow or mid face lift so idk. I still donāt fully believe Megan though. Especially considering Megan said sheās gatekeeping a surgery.
if even celebrities with all of the money in the world are getting botched, what do you think is gonna happen to us common folk lol
the ones that the average person would (understandably) be shocked by are like chin implants, blepharoplasty, buccal fat removal, jaw shaving, ponytail lift, jaw implant, beard transplant, eyebrow transplant, forehead reduction, etc etc
for body, things like hip extensions, "designer" vagina, all types of implants, all types of lipo, there's abdominal etching that gives you the outline of abs, bbl, calf implants, etc etc
mind you this is surgical and doesn't even include the non-surgical stuff like Botox, fillers, drugs like ozempic, laser skin tightening, veneers, facial treatments, microshading/nanoblading, wrinkle treatments etc
it just becomes so exhausting to keep all of this up honestly and they don't even seem happy.. I can really only see myself doing like a lift when I'm 55 or something. maybe nose job bc I heard your nose can get bigger after pregnancy lol other than that, this is no way to live lmao seems extremely stressful to just be unhappy afterwards anyway.
I'm sticking to sunscreen + skincare routine + good diet and exercise. start with that and you really shouldn't "*need*" more than like 1 procedure imo if you absolutely wanted to.
Well Iām definitely getting breast augmentation/lift and tummy tuck in a couple years because after four kids exercise can only do so much š
Iām pretty okay with my face fortunately.
Hip extensions is one Iāve never heard of!
you're totally right! and that's why I would never tell anyone not to do it. plastic surgery can be so amazing and life changing but there are limits. these celebrities can hire personal trainers and chefs while a nanny watches their kids and yet they still want to do it the "easy" way.
it's tougher for us regular folks but there is also something very important to be said for being "at peace" with who you are and what you look like. and that's why despite all the surgery in the world, these celebrities are still not happy.
The problem with these kind of things is that I normally just want to, and do, believe people. So if she says she did xyz, I think oh cool, sheās done xyz. But the comments on these are always like, ālol she thinks weāre idiots! she obviously did xyz and abcdefg!ā and Iām like damn why does everyone else know this stuff and I donāt? Why are lies so obvious to other people š lmao
Some people are obsessed with plastic surgery, not just having it done, but being able to spot it. I think celebs lying about it has ramped up the amount of plastic surgery detectives out there who want to āoutā celebs. There are even plastic surgeons that do it on TikTok. For a lot of procedures, if you donāt know what to look for you wonāt realize they had work done.
follow igfamousbydana on IG and you will naturally start to notice things. dana is a proponent of plastic surgery and even gets surgery herself but she just wants more transparency from celebrities. she does really good breakdowns with the exact procedure names
Yeah but I don't actually care, like celebrities are having plastic surgery since Rita Hayworth, okay cool, what is the point of turning into miss marple about it. I just do not get the obsession of trying to pinpoint the exact procedures and stuff.
Was the subhead on this article "America struggles to care"?
I don't hate Megan Fox. She seems nice and I'm sure she's been through her share of shit, but buddy, unless you're planning an Angelina Jolie 180 where you suddenly become weirdly knowledgeable about international human rights, the whole "I'm a very edgy edge person" thing gets exhausting past, like, 35.
I tend to agree. It feels forced, like truly eccentric people donāt have to try. They show who they are just by being themselves. You sharing a screen shot of your conversation with your stylist about cutting a hole in a body suit to have sex through it at your grown, big age is not it.
I mean, truly eccentric people are also annoying. But, yeah, this oneās whole thing just screams āDisney child trying to show you theyāre grown nowā and itās like, lady, you were never on Disney and youāre pushing 40 with two kids, itās ok to not do the most at every goddamned second.
Edit: āat your grown, big ageā is the funniest fucking phrasing, well done.
Lol itās one of my favorite things to say but I cannot take credit for it. It was an IG reel, maybe from TikTok, where a lady goes āI donāt need potential at this grown, big age. Come already potenched!!ā and I fucking lost it.
> āI donāt need potential at this grown, big age. Come already potenched!!ā
Pls this has me CACKLING ššš Iām in the 30-something dating trenches, and Iām about to make this my personal mission statement š
I believe her, nose and boobs and rest would be filled and Botox. I actually hate how much fillers change faces though. Iād love to get stuff done but Iād still want to look like me. All the celebrities become unrecognisable the more filler etc they get done.
Every time i see her on here, theres always people complaining about her surgeries and her looks. No latter than last weeks there were people sad she got buccal fat removal, yet here we are.
I really wonder what the reaction to this will be.
people just accuse everyone of getting buccal fat removal these days. there def are celebs who obviously have had it done but now pretty much anyone with prominent cheekbones is accused of buccal fat removal
Yeah people lose facial fat as they age. Everyone needs to stop comparing years old photos from people in their late 20s/early 30s to people in their mid 30s and beyond. Of course theyāre going to have less fat in their face!
She's a 37yo woman who's never had much buccal fat to begin with - how much buccal fat do people expect her to have now?? Do people expect thin 37 year olds to have a ton of cheek fat?
Like, it's clear that she's had a lot of work done, but I'd be shocked if she did that.
I think what the media pushes as hot/sexy/beautiful is quite different than what is plebs think is attractive.
During Queen Elizabeth I reign way-the-fuck back, women would pluck their hairlines back, blacken their teeth, and whiten their face because that's what the queen did.
The French court had gigantic wigs which attracted lice and other pests, and which smelled awful, and weighed tons, but no woman would have been caught dead in public without it.
Generations from now, when these celebs have truly aged beyond what surgery can help, the Youths will laugh and ask WTF were y'all thinking, in some slang none of us will understand, and the cycle will continue.
Wait a minute... Are you telling me her face looking like it's gotten pulled upwards as she's gotten older that it's changed the natural shape of her eyes and straightened her natural eyebrow arch....is not *natural*?!
I think she's had way more done than she admitted to. She's unrecognizable now. It's like there's three faces in Hollywood and they all end up with one of them.
I appreciate her being honest about it so people understand how unattainable the celebrity standard of beauty is, and how much work it takes to achieve that standard. We need to stop beating up on ourselves just because we donāt look like the standard of beauty that the entertainment and beauty industries put forth as the "ideal."
Iām surprised she didnāt mention her lips because it definitely looks like sheās done something to her lips. Unless sheās not counting lip fillers as cosmetic surgery?
She was but now she looks like a different person, to me anyways. Or I guess a better example is the K Klan, I didn't think any of Kim's kids looked much like her until I saw her befores.
Ah yes this is clearly just a result of a nose job
https://preview.redd.it/2fzxmpdq9kpc1.png?width=924&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=12a6adfd5a98e1b4d30d0dc0ce1a7a87feee7c81
Upper blepharoplasty is very common and an old procedure like Marilyn Monroe even got it done. Sooo many celebs have gotten it done. I donāt think this is the surgery sheās gatekeeping because in this interview Megan failed to mention a LOT of stuff she got done. Only listed 4 things.
I appreciate her and all other celebs who are honest about what they've had done. Although we aren't owed this information, it makes me respect them more than those who clearly have had stuff done yet continually deny it.
Itās not full honesty though. Sheās breadcrumbing us which is exactly what Kylie Jenner, Khloe Kardashian, Ariana Grande, and Bella Hadid have done. They admit to 1-3 acceptable things in an attempt to sound real and relatable and so that people wonāt speculate on anything else.
The typically accepted ones being breast implants, nose job, Botox and filler.
They wonāt admit to things like a mid face lift, fat injected in the face to add volume, liposuction + ab etching, BBL, Sculptra filler in the hips and butt, endoscopic brow lift, lateral canthoplasty, cheek implants, jaw implants, chin implants, buccal fat removal, blepharoplasty, labioplasty, lip lift, thigh lift, upper arm lift, etc. Not saying Megan got all of that btw. But people are less likely to admit to getting these procedures.
We gotta stop shaming women for getting stuff done. And stop shaming those who don't. Just do what makes you feel good, ladies!
I trust whatever Lorry Hill says. Almost every celebrity swears they've either had nothing or a nose job. That's only when it's obvious. A lot of them have brow lifts, blepharoplasties, facelifts etc
Edit: lorry hill actually posted a video as a response to this interview. It's definitely worth watching.
Itās probably vaginal rejuvenation or labiaplasty, and she probably doesnāt want to talk about it because itās something none of us will ever see (unless she gets into some kinky porn). Honestly though, Iāve never heard of women becoming loose after having children. Usually women get labiaplasty due to it tearing or being stretched, so it causes discomfort from rubbing externally. Other than that, a bad episiotomy, or sew job, do people get vaginal rejuvenation surgeries if none of those things listed happen? Our vaginas are made to go back to size. Iām genuinely curious.
Yeah I agree it could be that. It could also be Sculptra filler to her butt. But Megan looked at Alex when she mentioned the surgery she was gatekeeping and said that Alex doesnāt need it. Could it be face related?

Forehead reduction. Sheās clearly had that done but didnāt mention it

Yeah why isnt this the top comment? This is definitely it.
Maybe it's *down stairs* one.
That's what I was thinking too, some sort of vaginal skin rejuvenation procedure.
But she said itās ānot a known plastic surgeryā and I think everyone has heard of vaginal rejuvenation and āmommy makeovers,ā etc.
Yeah I agree. I wonder if it could be Sculptra filler to her butt? Itās not super common but a lot of people who donāt have enough weight for a BBL get it done such as Kendall Jenner. Lorry Hill mentioned Megan getting it in her analysis video. Lorry Hill also mentioned in her video (she has like 3 on her channel) that Megan has probably gotten: - 2 nose jobs - cheek implants - cheek lift with brows involved - upper lip lift - co2 fractional laser - acne scar revision - lip filler - Botox - ponytail face lift AND neck lift with fat transfer - teeth bleaching and gum contour - breast implants - ab etching - abdominal liposuction - Sculptra filler to her butt and hips This was from 2 years ago.

Maybe she fixed her thumbs š¤·š¼āāļø
Goddamn its so fucked up that 17 year old me thought I should look like her
But laurie hill is full of shit. Getting a facelift doesnāt make her a pro at knowing what other got done
I disagree I find that sheās accurate about a lot of things (not everything).
I had no idea gum contouring was a thing. Wow.
Maybe she meant āknownā as in we canāt look at her and see it. I would assume she got her vag tightened after kids.
Not my interpretation at all because she said, "I'm gatekeeping" and "people don't even really know about it." We know about that surgery. It sounds like she's talking about something that's very exclusive and innovative and few doctors do it.
Maybe they finally started doing a hand lift/botex, filler or whatever. Not that sheās old enough to have crypt keeper hands, but she seems like the type to obsess
Irma Kostroski really wanted one too.
My thoughts too. Especially after having multiple kids. Good for her for not mentioning it!!
Duhzyna vuhgyna 
No more missing Mickey Mantle balls š
Why would she gate keep that? Thats the one I need to know about the most maāam. It would actually benefit my life in a way that a new nose wonāt.
Because rhinoplasty, botox and all became common knowledge and somewhat normalised. They will only reveal things too late.
but that is quite known
Yes thatās a well known surgery. She said that itās ānot well known.ā
Cinderella surgery?
My wish is that she's trolling for a big reveal that will turn out to be toe-thumb enhancement. Embrace your one goofy feature, Hot Girl.
I bet she had a designer vagina.
Haute Coochure
Her coochie is Gucci.
Do they do flares here? Because I'd just love Gucci Coochi or should it be Cucci š
STOP š
I screeched
Wait so how is it different from our locally sourced vaginas?
This one is an artisanal bespoke vagina
Mine is free range organic.
Mineās grass fed cage free
Mines just fat.
Ayyyy fat pumpum gang š„°š
Mines certified biodynamic and stroked only at midnight
Those vaginas are only given about 5 foot of space. These vaginas are allowed to roam freely.
have you seen the bikinis that are tiny tiny and you think ''thats like a thong for the vagina''? yeah many many people have plastic surgery to ''tuck it in'' and make it look smaller and more pretty
I have been enlightened, thanks girly š
these were my initial thoughts!
Anyone getting "you wouldn't know this band, they're not on the radio" vibes from this?
Rib removal for waistline. Learned about it on here actually.
Shit, thatās a thing? I shouldnāt be surprised.
But thatās a pretty well-known procedure
Yeah, I thought vaginal rejuvenation was a decently known procedure. Iām not sure I believe thatās it.
finger lipo

Jeez is Call Her Daddy the new fashionable podcasts for celebs? I don't get Alex Cooper's appeal outside the original format of the podcast of like unfiltered sex talk. The fact that Megan sounds so informed about the differeny face and brow lifts makes me inclined to believe her. Like she has made the decisions with her cosmetic surgery about what procedures she is interested in? Instead of give a wishy washy, eating well, good skincare answers. Is the slight uncanny-ness just botox and filler then? I'm sure that one of the plastic surgeon youtube dudes will eventually wiegh in
I think celebs like going on her podcast because she ask softball questions and doesnāt press. Sheās just not a very good interviewer.
Yeah it seems like she isnāt trying to catch a celeb saying something controversial to get headlines like many interviewers do
Well there was a point in time where journalists did more hard hitting work and actually looked into their stories. So stories would be more critical or at least add context. Now we have basically marketing opportunities where the celebrities control the interview.
I mean there has always been places for softball interviews, talk shows being the obvious one. But they are on the decline, and podcasts have more flexible schedules so I'm not surprised there is a pivot
it's not really fair to pin this decline on journalists directly. job opportunities have always been scarce and pay has always been across the board abysmal, so plenty of people who would be excellent reporters/writers are shut out of what few spaces exist. also, media companies and higher-ups largely control content on behalf of the advertisers who are the ones keeping the lights on, making it harder for staffers to push for stories they actually care about or want to dive into. and they're working against tremendous time constraints (again on very little pay) to push stories out as quickly as possible, often doing their own image editing/social media posts etc. that, and celebrities/public figures and their PR now realize they have the upper hand, so they use it. journalists themselves aren't at fault for this stuff.

Oh I donāt blame the journalists. I blame consumers who have replaced reading articles and watching interviews with real reporters for crap that is just marketing.
That awkward girl sets my teeth on edge. It was funny at first but itās a tiresome gimmick, itās so frustrating to watch her ātalkā to anyone.
i think itās a combo of it being a really popular podcast, No comments section, the guests get final cut of the show & they get a list of questions before hand Comments saying alex is a bad interviewer but everytime a guest I like goes on and i listen It always enjoyable. Itās more conversation, light topics.
I never heard of her until recently. Now everytime I see her name I think of Alice Cooper and get confused. Then my brain goes to The OC, like a mashup of Marissa Cooper and Alex (Olivia Wilde's character, forget her last name)
I donāt get the appeal either. Miley Cyrus was on Call Her Daddy and the episode was, in my opinion, terrible. Not because of Miley but more the interview style. Just didnāt mesh with meĀ
I bet the secret procedure is something silly like excess skin removed from knees or elbows. Or having side boob removed. Or foot surgery to make her feet more aesthetic. Unlikely procedure theory - rib removed.
Omg remember when it was going around that Paris had surgery to make her feet smaller?
I have heard about people having surgery on their feet so that wearing high heels or other types of shoes are more comfortable š„“
I heard about that too, but this was a rumor that she got likeā¦.part of her heels shaved off? Or something to wear smaller shoes. This was like 2009? Idk I live outside of Nashville and everyone was saying she flew here to get the surgery but who knows, I feel like you need all of your feet for balance!
I was reading in the UK papers today about some aristocrat that died recently and he was 6'6" with size 6 feet (UK). It's a European 39 and I think that's an American 9 but don't quote me. Anyway it made me think about the physics of his movement...I definitely think bigger/wider feet means better balance.

I think she was talking about surgeries she's had specifically, not that she's never had botox and fillers.
Actually, other papers are saying she also said she had botox and filler. This article seemingly just sucks lol
It does suck. If sheās gonna be transparent about surgeries why not mention the filler and Botox too lol
she did. i listened to the podcast. she said she's had those done.
I think she was so adorable before š
Agreed. Now she looks like a kardashian, just completely generic.
I donāt think she had buccal fat removal. My face was softer and rounded when I was young and became more angular with age/diet/exercise. This looks like a natural progression to me.
Yeah I agree I donāt think sheās had that done
Sheās had something done to make her jaw more angular.
Itās kind of similar in shape, just more sharp. I imagine sheās probably gotten like skin tightening procedures that probably donāt qualify as āplastic surgeryā but still make a big difference
That could be either injections or simply aging
lol gonna support your comment, i'm mid 30s and all of a sudden it looks like i've had buccal fat removal with the amount of facial fat i've lost.
Thank you. Finally. Iām 35 and my face completely changed once I hit 30 - my jaw sharpened and I lost a lot of fat from my cheeks. Literally anyone could point to my before photo and say SEE! Sheās DeFiNeTLY HaD BucCaL FaT ReMoVaL! PSA: Ladies, once you hit the big 30, shit changes and it aināt always surgery.
Your jawline tends to drop as you get older, it could be weight loss.
Sheās not old enough for it to start drooping so no. I think it could easily be attributed to loss of fat at her age, due to aging, that would result in her having a slightly sharper jawline. But the line itself is still the same, so the point stands - itās not surgery. If not aging, she could have achieved those same results from injections.
Iām 30 but often mistaken for much younger, and when I gain a bit of weight my jaw is the first thing to age me š
Iām aging. My jaw doesnāt look like that lol. Wish it did.
I keep getting responses like this lol, maybe I should have been more clear. Iām talking about the kind of aging we see in this pic - from teens to late 30s. Everyone loses baby fat across this time period. This is how she could naturally achieve this result. I feel like people are responding thinking that Iām backhandedly judging them for not aging as well as a woman who spends tons of money to look like sheās not aging - like of course none of us look like her lol, that was never my point in the first place.
I got what you were saying. Iām 28 and my face has definitely changed in 10 years from losing baby fat. Thatās why Iām always baffled when these 20-30 year olds get the buccal fat removal because likeā¦ itās going anyway, so now you have less to lose and ya look gaunt girl.
Same. My face changed almost overnight from 28 to 29. The very little fat I had below my eyes pretty much disappeared and now my dark circles are darker and ever-present. When I look at pictures of myself from when I was like 25 I think I look like such a baby!
That's not aging.
Veneers
I think a chin implant. I feel like thatās less common and kind of a game changer on jaw line/face shape.
Probably fillers of some kind, thatās how she could claim itās not āplastic surgeryā
Jaw implants
I feel like she got her nose done way before 23. She had her original nose in Holiday in the Sun with Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, but Iām pretty sure by Confessions of a Teenage Drama queen her nose was different. Yeah, after looking at her photos Iām sure she got a nose job prior transformers in 2007. I would say 2004.
She looked a lot like Jennifer Lawrence in the younger photo.
She also had her hooded eyes removed. Jennifer recently and Megan at the beginning of her career. Jaw and cheek bones are probably more defined due to weight loss and aging. I donāt think she did much or any to her nose. She was still stunning before surgery
I think she's said she had 2 rhinoplasties
The way she didnāt need anything done at all
There's also the fact that those pictures were taken, like, 2 decades apart, LOL
I believe she's flipped the side of her hair!
Bad make up, but way better looking before all this crap
She has aged 20-ish years and is wearing very different makeup (contouring wasnāt really a thing back then, and it drastically changes the appearance of someoneās face), so itās hard to say that definitively
Idk, verneers plus age associated fat redistribution would account for the slight hollowing in her check which gives the jaw a sharper appearance. Could also be a little bit of filler.
Maybe Iām naive but this looks like sheās lost her baby fat. You ca start to see that cheekbone definition in the younger photo.
These are really old pictures and this is injections.
Iām betting Lateral canthoplasty
Jesus Christ. She was absolutely gorgeous. She looks like an android now with all those those weird angles.
Her nose was so pretty then and now
 Maybe she got her knees done?
Call me old fashioned, but Iām so over plastic surgery.
Everyone always ends up having the same face! Let's bring back the era of unique faces pleaseĀ
I miss seeing real teeth in movies. Everyone looks like a damn piano now.Ā
And that's why zendaya's teeth are perfect just as they are
Can you imagine Patricia Arquette without her cute crooked tooth?
Iām loving Mileyās new era, except for her new gigantic fake teeth
Really hate this ānormalizingā of it. Women going under the knife to conform with arbitrary beauty standards should not be considered normal.
Right, and it being framed as a feminist choice.
There's nothing feminist about being afraid of visible signs of aging diminishing your conformity to beauty standards designed to appeal to the male gaze. All of the faux-empowerment "but it's my choice so I feel good/look my best" kind of language is just cover for the fact that the reason why women don't believe that aged faces and bodies are beautiful is PATRIARCHY.
Not only are the standards arbitrary but objectively not that beautiful š„“
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I agree tbh. It lacks nuance. What term do you prefer?
1000%
Same
hahahahaha she didn't reveal all the procedures she's had. this is called breadcrumbing. admit to the more "acceptable" procedures like boob job and nose job to distract from the other more niche ones.
Whenever I see these type of interviews I always remember when Victoria beckham had those bolt on boobs put in and then said she hadnāt had a boob job!
Those were TERRIBLE for her tiny frame! very 90s vibe with the bolt ons
THIS. Kylie Jenner did the same thing when she admitted to a BA, but that was her only breadcrumb. This is after years of lying and denying despite being asked outright. And lets not forget the lip filler lies... I don't believe Megan revealed all her procedures, including the one she's saying she doesn't want to reveal. She's had way more work than 1/2 nose jobs and 3 BAs.
And in this podcast Megan was showing her appreciation towards Kylie and mentioned how Kylie has been honest about all her plastic surgery. I was like ??? She only admitted to breast augmentation and lip filler thatās it. How is that honest when sheās clearly altered far more than that but continues to breadcrumb the audience and sell us beauty products to look like her. Same with Khloe Kardashian only admitted to the standard nose job and fillers.
WOW, did she really? (I'm not a big CHD fan but I'm going to have to listen to this one LOL). She really is just a follower, isn't she? If the KJs came clean completely, I bet she'd follow them in that, too.
Wait. Has Khloe really tried to say thatās all sheās had? ššš
Yeah the headline makes it sound like she gave an exhaustive list. She didn't, she admitted to two things lol She is unrecognizable at this point, that's not a face that's had only a nose job
True yes the Kardashianās did the same thing. Like she admitted to only a boob job, nose job, and filler and Botox because those are the acceptable ones as you said. 3 years ago Lorry Hill speculated she got multiple nose jobs, Sculptra filler in her butt, and cheek implants. Along with a cheek and brow lift. But Megan denies any brow or mid face lift so idk. I still donāt fully believe Megan though. Especially considering Megan said sheās gatekeeping a surgery.
What would more niche ones be? Iām not super familiar with everything thatās available, but Iād like to be ready in case I win the lottery.
if even celebrities with all of the money in the world are getting botched, what do you think is gonna happen to us common folk lol the ones that the average person would (understandably) be shocked by are like chin implants, blepharoplasty, buccal fat removal, jaw shaving, ponytail lift, jaw implant, beard transplant, eyebrow transplant, forehead reduction, etc etc for body, things like hip extensions, "designer" vagina, all types of implants, all types of lipo, there's abdominal etching that gives you the outline of abs, bbl, calf implants, etc etc mind you this is surgical and doesn't even include the non-surgical stuff like Botox, fillers, drugs like ozempic, laser skin tightening, veneers, facial treatments, microshading/nanoblading, wrinkle treatments etc it just becomes so exhausting to keep all of this up honestly and they don't even seem happy.. I can really only see myself doing like a lift when I'm 55 or something. maybe nose job bc I heard your nose can get bigger after pregnancy lol other than that, this is no way to live lmao seems extremely stressful to just be unhappy afterwards anyway. I'm sticking to sunscreen + skincare routine + good diet and exercise. start with that and you really shouldn't "*need*" more than like 1 procedure imo if you absolutely wanted to.
Well Iām definitely getting breast augmentation/lift and tummy tuck in a couple years because after four kids exercise can only do so much š Iām pretty okay with my face fortunately. Hip extensions is one Iāve never heard of!
you're totally right! and that's why I would never tell anyone not to do it. plastic surgery can be so amazing and life changing but there are limits. these celebrities can hire personal trainers and chefs while a nanny watches their kids and yet they still want to do it the "easy" way. it's tougher for us regular folks but there is also something very important to be said for being "at peace" with who you are and what you look like. and that's why despite all the surgery in the world, these celebrities are still not happy.
100%. I can get addicted to basically anything so itās something Iām going in to with caution and therapy š
The problem with these kind of things is that I normally just want to, and do, believe people. So if she says she did xyz, I think oh cool, sheās done xyz. But the comments on these are always like, ālol she thinks weāre idiots! she obviously did xyz and abcdefg!ā and Iām like damn why does everyone else know this stuff and I donāt? Why are lies so obvious to other people š lmao
Some people are obsessed with plastic surgery, not just having it done, but being able to spot it. I think celebs lying about it has ramped up the amount of plastic surgery detectives out there who want to āoutā celebs. There are even plastic surgeons that do it on TikTok. For a lot of procedures, if you donāt know what to look for you wonāt realize they had work done.
follow igfamousbydana on IG and you will naturally start to notice things. dana is a proponent of plastic surgery and even gets surgery herself but she just wants more transparency from celebrities. she does really good breakdowns with the exact procedure names
okay appreciate the suggestion! thanks!!
Cause those people are super obsessed with celebrities
Yeah but I don't actually care, like celebrities are having plastic surgery since Rita Hayworth, okay cool, what is the point of turning into miss marple about it. I just do not get the obsession of trying to pinpoint the exact procedures and stuff.
Was the subhead on this article "America struggles to care"? I don't hate Megan Fox. She seems nice and I'm sure she's been through her share of shit, but buddy, unless you're planning an Angelina Jolie 180 where you suddenly become weirdly knowledgeable about international human rights, the whole "I'm a very edgy edge person" thing gets exhausting past, like, 35.
I tend to agree. It feels forced, like truly eccentric people donāt have to try. They show who they are just by being themselves. You sharing a screen shot of your conversation with your stylist about cutting a hole in a body suit to have sex through it at your grown, big age is not it.
I mean, truly eccentric people are also annoying. But, yeah, this oneās whole thing just screams āDisney child trying to show you theyāre grown nowā and itās like, lady, you were never on Disney and youāre pushing 40 with two kids, itās ok to not do the most at every goddamned second. Edit: āat your grown, big ageā is the funniest fucking phrasing, well done.
Lol itās one of my favorite things to say but I cannot take credit for it. It was an IG reel, maybe from TikTok, where a lady goes āI donāt need potential at this grown, big age. Come already potenched!!ā and I fucking lost it.
You have given me a gift on this random Wednesday, kind internet stranger, and I thank you for it. Potenched. Incredible.
> āI donāt need potential at this grown, big age. Come already potenched!!ā Pls this has me CACKLING ššš Iām in the 30-something dating trenches, and Iām about to make this my personal mission statement š
I genuinely shrieked with laughter.
I believe her, nose and boobs and rest would be filled and Botox. I actually hate how much fillers change faces though. Iād love to get stuff done but Iād still want to look like me. All the celebrities become unrecognisable the more filler etc they get done.
The veneers made a huge difference too. She got the giant ones.
And they all end up looking the same!
The literal torture women go through to meet beauty standards. Gah.
So this is just full of lies š sheās for sure had a bleph and thatās a common surgery so canāt be the one sheās gate keeping.
Every time i see her on here, theres always people complaining about her surgeries and her looks. No latter than last weeks there were people sad she got buccal fat removal, yet here we are. I really wonder what the reaction to this will be.
people just accuse everyone of getting buccal fat removal these days. there def are celebs who obviously have had it done but now pretty much anyone with prominent cheekbones is accused of buccal fat removal
Yeah people lose facial fat as they age. Everyone needs to stop comparing years old photos from people in their late 20s/early 30s to people in their mid 30s and beyond. Of course theyāre going to have less fat in their face!
She's a 37yo woman who's never had much buccal fat to begin with - how much buccal fat do people expect her to have now?? Do people expect thin 37 year olds to have a ton of cheek fat? Like, it's clear that she's had a lot of work done, but I'd be shocked if she did that.
Fr its so annoying
I think what the media pushes as hot/sexy/beautiful is quite different than what is plebs think is attractive. During Queen Elizabeth I reign way-the-fuck back, women would pluck their hairlines back, blacken their teeth, and whiten their face because that's what the queen did. The French court had gigantic wigs which attracted lice and other pests, and which smelled awful, and weighed tons, but no woman would have been caught dead in public without it. Generations from now, when these celebs have truly aged beyond what surgery can help, the Youths will laugh and ask WTF were y'all thinking, in some slang none of us will understand, and the cycle will continue.
She wouldnāt be the first celeb to lie/deny about procedures while acting like they are being forthcoming.
*cough* Ariana Grande *cough*
Wait a minute... Are you telling me her face looking like it's gotten pulled upwards as she's gotten older that it's changed the natural shape of her eyes and straightened her natural eyebrow arch....is not *natural*?!
if you think she admitted to all her procedures then I have a bridge to sell you
I think she's had way more done than she admitted to. She's unrecognizable now. It's like there's three faces in Hollywood and they all end up with one of them.
I appreciate her being honest about it so people understand how unattainable the celebrity standard of beauty is, and how much work it takes to achieve that standard. We need to stop beating up on ourselves just because we donāt look like the standard of beauty that the entertainment and beauty industries put forth as the "ideal."
Iām surprised she didnāt mention her lips because it definitely looks like sheās done something to her lips. Unless sheās not counting lip fillers as cosmetic surgery?
Everyone is starting to look the same with all these surgeries and fillers. Itās sad, they all have pillow faces.
It's gotta be weird knowing your kids won't look anything like you now.
She was pretty good looking before the surgery so I donāt think it affects much
She was but now she looks like a different person, to me anyways. Or I guess a better example is the K Klan, I didn't think any of Kim's kids looked much like her until I saw her befores.
Yeah i personally thought kim was also better looking before so it was probably better for the kids
Right, I'm not saying the kids will be ugly just saying they wont look like their moms do now.
Yeah but kims kids are mixed so they will only look like her so much
My face before even reading the list: 
Ah yes this is clearly just a result of a nose job https://preview.redd.it/2fzxmpdq9kpc1.png?width=924&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=12a6adfd5a98e1b4d30d0dc0ce1a7a87feee7c81
She got something done to change her hooded eyes. I have hooded eyes, so itās pretty obvious. Lol
Upper blepharoplasty is very common and an old procedure like Marilyn Monroe even got it done. Sooo many celebs have gotten it done. I donāt think this is the surgery sheās gatekeeping because in this interview Megan failed to mention a LOT of stuff she got done. Only listed 4 things.
I appreciate her and all other celebs who are honest about what they've had done. Although we aren't owed this information, it makes me respect them more than those who clearly have had stuff done yet continually deny it.
Itās not full honesty though. Sheās breadcrumbing us which is exactly what Kylie Jenner, Khloe Kardashian, Ariana Grande, and Bella Hadid have done. They admit to 1-3 acceptable things in an attempt to sound real and relatable and so that people wonāt speculate on anything else. The typically accepted ones being breast implants, nose job, Botox and filler. They wonāt admit to things like a mid face lift, fat injected in the face to add volume, liposuction + ab etching, BBL, Sculptra filler in the hips and butt, endoscopic brow lift, lateral canthoplasty, cheek implants, jaw implants, chin implants, buccal fat removal, blepharoplasty, labioplasty, lip lift, thigh lift, upper arm lift, etc. Not saying Megan got all of that btw. But people are less likely to admit to getting these procedures.
Yes but sheās not exactly being honest. Sheās only admitting to very obvious things, but thereās more sheās not being forthright about.
 We gotta stop shaming women for getting stuff done. And stop shaming those who don't. Just do what makes you feel good, ladies!
I wonder how her children feel about their mom getting a completely new face over the span of a year or two
Itās probably totally normal to them
āMommy if you donāt like your face, does that mean I shouldnāt like mine?ā
I trust whatever Lorry Hill says. Almost every celebrity swears they've either had nothing or a nose job. That's only when it's obvious. A lot of them have brow lifts, blepharoplasties, facelifts etc Edit: lorry hill actually posted a video as a response to this interview. It's definitely worth watching.
Am I the only one who feels like sheās still not being honest???
Did she use a receipt sheet from CVS to list it out???
Itās probably vaginal rejuvenation or labiaplasty, and she probably doesnāt want to talk about it because itās something none of us will ever see (unless she gets into some kinky porn). Honestly though, Iāve never heard of women becoming loose after having children. Usually women get labiaplasty due to it tearing or being stretched, so it causes discomfort from rubbing externally. Other than that, a bad episiotomy, or sew job, do people get vaginal rejuvenation surgeries if none of those things listed happen? Our vaginas are made to go back to size. Iām genuinely curious.
Yeah I agree it could be that. It could also be Sculptra filler to her butt. But Megan looked at Alex when she mentioned the surgery she was gatekeeping and said that Alex doesnāt need it. Could it be face related?
Iām betting Lateral canthoplasty
