From my friend, Mary McDonough:
Recent pictures of Christina Aguilera, posted at Yeeeah.com, called "Christina's Boobs Are Revolting," are turning peoples' heads and making us shake ours. This poor girl! Is she another to add to the long list of celebrities that have turned to implants for job security and attention?
There have been rumors of her implants all over the Web (here, here, and here, just to start) but the confirmation can be found in the pictures. Her breasts look painful and completely distorted. We wonder how a woman gets to a place where she thinks this is natural, beautiful and something to strut in a low-cut sweater.
Even bigger (no pun intended) cause to worry is that she just had a baby. Is she breast-feeding? We all know the jury is still out on breastfeeding with implants, silicone crossing into breastmilk, and certain silicones crossing the placental barrier. So many of our mom's are sick, but our children are also sick. This makes us worry for the new life she has brought into the world. I know I didn't think my decisions before motherhood would affect my baby, but they did. I only hope hers doesn't affect her new one.
One would think someone or even her stylists would cover up stuff like this.
Everyone remembers the Britney scandal: Our favorite, possibly mentally ill, world famous-at-17 pop princess wasn't big enough for her boots and got temporary breast implants, with her mother's consent.
And even Dolly Parton has been in the news recently for her implants, postponing her tour because of back pain caused by her over-sized chest. It's not just the younger generation that is caught up in this tragic body image dilemma. Dolly's small frame and huge implant size show that there was a surgeon out there that wasn't thinking of the most appropriate or even healthy look for her body.
Not only is it sad to see celebrities (who are people, by the way) making the decisions they do because of vanity or unrealistic expectations, but it's sad to know that they are surrounded by people who are paid to say yes. Plastic surgery and Hollywood go hand-in-hand, as we already know, but Hollywood is all about illusions. Sooner or later, we have a glimpse of harsh reality.
