To make the situation even sadder, Rob and Michele Reiner are Annie Guest’s godparents. “They died on her birthday.

Actress Admits Feeling ‘Not Pretty’ Amid Multiple Plastic Surgeries

Jamie Lee Curtis starred in seven Halloween movies, earning the nickname “Scream Queen.” But her impressive film credits go beyond the horror movie franchise. Her sexy and funny striptease in True Lies is iconic. But the actress admitted on the IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson podcast that she was “never pretty.”

“Now, I’ve never been pretty. And I’m saying it out loud … I wasn’t pretty like that. I wasn’t pretty the way girls are pretty … And that’s very important for me because that was never the thing I relied on,” she said.

The actress candidly admitted that she “succumbed” to plastic surgery. “I’ve sucked the fat, I’ve cut the fat. I’ve tried to do the things that people do that everybody’s doing, and it doesn’t work.”

Jamie Lee Curtis said plastic surgery doesn’t work because you’re still the same person after the surgery. She added, “I think it actually makes you feel fraudulent, and I think that it creates self-hatred. And for me, accepting that I look the way I look is part of self-love.”

Now that she’s seen the light, she blasted Hollywood’s “fakery.” “It’s what we used to call airbrushing is now just filtering. It’s all fakery,” the actress said.

Jamie Lee Curtis tried plastic surgery and didn’t like it. She now embraces her looks, earning major praise from fans for aging naturally.
