Demi Moore denies plastic surgery: The scalpel wont make you happy
Oh, Demi. I’ll buy several of pieces of information about Demi – that she and husband Ashton Kutcher truly love each other, that she’s a great businesswoman, and that she’s a good mother. Here’s what I won’t buy: that Demi, as she is right now at this very minute, is totally and completely all natural, a 46-year-old woman who has never had anything nipped, tucked, sucked or enhanced. I’ve always thought she was a beautiful woman, but there’s no way I’m buying that the same face from Ghost is now cosmetically unaltered. But that’s what Demi is now claiming, according to a new interview in the French Marie Claire (story via the Mirror). Demi (allegedly) says the plastic surgery rumors are “completely false” and that she doesn’t “like the idea of having an operation to hold up the ageing process – it’s a way to combat your neurosis. The scalpel won’t make you happy.” Er… right. Says the woman whose face is pulled ridiculously tight.
This actually isn’t the first time Demi has talked about her “lack” of plastic surgery, although it’s the furthest I’ve ever seen her go in denying. Back in December of last year, she gave an interview where she denied having $3 million worth of surgery, saying “The truth is I have no problem with enhancing one’s looks or fixing something that’s changed. It’s always an option, but I can’t see me ever getting something like that done.” In the new denial, Demi also says that she’ll think about getting something done when she starts crying at the sight of herself in the mirror:
With the stunning figure of a woman half her age, Demi Moore’s youthful allure has earned her a reputation as the queen of plastic surgery.
The 47-year-old actress has long been the poster girl for cosmetic enhancement, re-ported to have spent £220,000 on boob jobs, liposuction, facelifts and even a knee lift.
But in a new interview, she insists she has NEVER been under the surgeon’s knife. “It’s completely false,” she says. “I’ve never had it done. But I would never judge those who have. If it’s the best thing for them, then I don’t see a problem. I don’t like the idea of having an operation to hold up the ageing process – it’s a way to combat your neurosis. The scalpel won’t make you happy.”
“That said, the day when I start crying when I look at myself in the mirror might be the day when I’m less adamant about not having it done.”
“But for the moment I prefer to be a beautiful woman of my age than try desperately to look 30.”
Demi’s claim in Marie Claire magazine in France this week will astonish observers who have long believed she had resorted to surgery in a bid to rejuvenate her flagging career and impress her 31-year-old husband Ashton Kutcher.
A close friend of Demi – who has a nutritionist, trainer, yoga teacher and kick-boxing coach – has claimed the star relies on A-lister surgeon Brian Novack. The pal said: “Demi can’t stand it that there is part of her that is not perfect.”

It’s the lies I hate. The lies, and the idea that she thinks we’re dumb enough to buy it. When Demi made her triumphant return to Hollywood, back in 2003 with Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle, most people who remembered what Demi used to look like were somewhat startled. I’m not saying Demi is like that Cat Woman lady, but Demi is in serious denial if she thinks her work has gone unnoticed. When I was looking for older images of Demi, people had already generated several “Before and After” photo montages. I’d say she had a standard facelift several years ago, and she probably had something done to her eyes – like a lid lift or something, because the lack of any kind of crows feet is a little creep.
