Why Bad Celebrity Plastic Surgery Gets Attention (and the Good Surgery Doesn't)
We hear a lot about "bad celebrity plastic surgery" or "celebrity plastic surgery gone wrong". But how common is it really for celebrities to get plastic surgery that doesn't suit them? The fact of the matter is that it's probably significantly more common for celebrities to get good plastic surgery which improves their appearance in subtle ways. Their attractiveness gets our attention without drawing our eye towards the cosmetic enhancements. So why don't we hear too much about this good celebrity pastic surgery? Some would argue that the good news isn't news; it's boring.
Starpulse, a blog which reports on the activities of celebrities, had an article recently about this very issue. Well, the articles was actually about bad celebrity plastic surgery (it made a point out of Melanie Griffith) but it gave an explanation of why media outlets rarely pick up stories about plastic surgery that is done correctly on Hollywood's stars and starlets:
"Celebrities that go under the knife are far from uncommon, but most of them find amazing plastic surgeons and pay them vast amounts of money to do it well. What's the mark of good plastic surgery, you ask? There isn't one - that's the point. Good plastic surgery is like a good soy hot dog - if nobody told you otherwise, you'd believe it was the untouched work of Mother Nature herself. Unfortunately, these celebrity plastic surgery success stories are about as interesting as soy hot dogs are delicious, and so we rightly kick them to the curb in favor of the disastrous, the nightmarish, and the downright horrific."
It's the same story that is usually the case with celebrities. Most gossip lovers don't really want to know about a celebrity that gets happily married and lives a normal life in a stable relationship. They want to hear about affairs and heartbreak, about couples who are intense enough to get
matching tattoos and then split up just weeks later, about the difficulties of their romances. The rest is just considered boring. And that seems to be the story with celebrity plastic surgery as well. The good stuff, although much more common, just doesn't get fans' attention like the kind that goes awry.
