live from little leper land…sebastian and sela have succumbed to hf&m. sela’s only sign is some mottling around the ankles and a tiny blister on her thumb. no surprise, it is a cute blister. sebastian’s are also pretty small, but are growing.

magnificent charles has just left to take sebastian for a drive. had to explain to him NO PLAYGROUND, and that was tough for him. the blue car was a great consolation.

is it just me or does hf&m sounds like the name of a men’s magazine?

on to another topic altogether.

check out www.awfulplasticsurgery.com

i cannot take credit for finding this divine site. BOULDER pointed me this way, months ago. she is either so ahead of the curve, or part of a conspiracy, because this site is all over the celebrity news these days.

nicolette sheridan is denying she ever had the plastic surgery awfulplasticsurgery claims she has had done. as is sharon stone. and just about everyone else. i know i have touched on this before, that the parallels between plastic surgery and infertility treatments are obvious.

do people have a right to privacy? YES.  it isn’t our business what they’ve done to achieve the end result. but it gets tenative when it skews the way you view yourself, your plans, or your self image.

back in 2002, malaysia picked up that theme of self-image, and pulled toyota car advertisements featuring brad pitt on the grounds that his non-Asian face would "plant a sense of inferiority among Asians."

a malaysian government spokesperson also wondered why "we must use their faces in our advertisements? aren’t our own people handsome enough?" 

yes they are, but they don’t have the benefit of the wraps, bleaching, dying, highlighting, non cosmetic facelifts, botox, lymphatic drainage, rhinoplasty, lifts, suction, etc etc etc that seems to be available in every californian or new york hotel or gym.

do check out the website, though. at the very best, the before and after pictures are frightening. do celebs really think the after pix are more flattering?? do you??
