Stiff Words: ‘Botox? I think it’s fantastic …

2:00PM Kyle Buchanan | Stiff Words: “Botox? I think it’s fantastic and also horrible,” actress Courteney Cox says in the November issue of Marie Claire. “I mean, they’ve come up with this stuff that can make you not look angry. But you have to use it sparingly. I went to this doctor once, and he was like, ‘Oh, let me do it just here and here and here.’ And I was miserable…I mean, I’m an actor, I’ve got to be able to move my face.” Her feet, however, are another story.

Denials: Sharon Stone would like you to know …

8:20AM Kyle Buchanan | Denials: Sharon Stone would like you to know that she would never, ever let her son bogart her Botox! “This week it was reported in connection with Sharon Stone’s custody dispute that she wanted to have her young 8 year-old son undergo Botox treatment at this time for his feet,” said her attorney Martin Singer to Entertainment Tonight. “Sharon Stone never made this statement. It is a complete fabrication. Sharon loves her son Roan and only wants the best for him.” That, Singer added, is why the actress has scheduled a chemical peel for Roan before class pictures.

Can’t a Cool Mum Like Sharon Stone Share Some Botox With Her 8-Year-Old Son?

7:00AM Kyle Buchanan | When Sharon Stone lost custody of her eight-year-old son Roan last week, we were surprised; yes, the actress has had an erratic year that involved blaming “karma tectonics” for the death of 7,000 Chinese, but sole custody is rarely awarded to the father in these cases. Could it have been Stone’s new relationship with a greasy 24-year-old that turned the legal tide against her, or was it something more? According to TMZ, which obtained the court’s “Tentative Statement of Decision,” it was a whole range of factors, though all may pale in comparison to the smoking gun proffered by ex-husband Phil Bronstein: that Stone wanted to Botox her son.

Did They Or Didn’t They? (Botox, That Is)

4:05AM Molly Friedman | A story in Sunday’s LAT did the unthinkable by finally pointing out the big Botoxed elephant in the room: no matter how painfully obvious it is to viewers, many stars who get nipped and tucked insist on denying it. But as the Times argues, just how many episodes of this season’s Dancing With The Stars or Desperate Housewives can we sit through before drawing our own conclusions? Have you seen Priscilla Presley lately? And if celebrities are going so far as to undergo actual “head transplants,” when will they finally start fessing up? We took a look at a few of the stars in question, such as Teri Hatcher and Carrie Fisher, to innocently throw some visual evidence into the mix. More »

What’s That, Daily Mail? Nicole Looks Like A What?

3:41PM Clem Bastow | Now, as much as we love Our Nicole Kidman, we’re the first to agree she could probably lay off the facials and Botox injections. The whole stunned look is possibly not working as well for her today as it did when she was in The Interpreter and required to look permanently shocked/concerned. However, we’re not sure about The Daily Mail’s choice of analogy when it comes to discussing Nic’s visage: Right, so cosmetic surgery expert Dr Martin Braun says, “She looks like a bat with too much of an (outer) brow lift. The middle of the brow’s been dropped. She’s crying when she accepts her Oscar, but nothing is moving.” Fair enough. But, what’s that? You didn’t quite catch what they were trying to say about her face? Oh, cool – here you go again: Huh? You still don’t know what she looks like? Here, how about an enlarged version of the two images above, at 1000 x 895! Something for the desktop, perhaps? Really, we think once probably would’ve been enough. We half expect to log on to the Mail on Monday and find the background is nothing but tiled images of Nicole and her bat friend. More »
