Jamie Lee Curtis is warning people who want to rely on plastic surgery to deal with their own insecurities about their looks or aging—but also to deal with the image obsessed film and TV industry—to reconsider.

Curtis is on the record as having had plastic surgery.


She cautioned her experience with surgery "didn't work."

"It got me addicted to Vicodin...I'm 22 years sober now."






Curtis also expressed she thought plastic surgery was actually bad for humankind.

"The current trend of fillers and procedures, and this obsession with filtering, and the things that we do to adjust our appearance on Zoom are wiping out generations of beauty."
"Once you mess with your face, you can't get it back."






Curtis has been vocal about her position on plastic surgery in the past, but mostly as it relates to her addiction to opioids via Vicodin which she battled for a decade until getting sober in 1999.

After a routine procedure to remove the puffiness from her eyes, Curtis revealed she was prescribed Vicodin to deal with the pain of recovering from surgery.

"They gave me Vicodin as a painkiller for something that wasn't really painful," she said.





Curtis blamed social media for the increase in cosmetic surgeries.

"It's like giving a chainsaw to a toddler," she said.

"We just don't know the longitudinal effect, mentally, spiritually and physically, on a generation of young people who are in agony because of social media, because of the comparisons to others.
"All of us who are old enough know that it's all a lie — it's a real danger to young people."

Curtis's journey to self-acceptance, she says, began with her sobriety.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
