How much is too much? Take a look…
I've read about her over the years, I've seen the ongoing progression of her plastic surgeries in photos, and it amazes me that Jocelyn Wildenstein manages to go out in public. She is the epitome of plastic surgery gone wild. Does anyone know the name of her doctor?
A conversation with her about plastic surgery would be fascinating, because she allegedly has had $4 million dollars of it. You’d bring up a more rarely performed procedure like a body lift and she’d perkily volunteer, ’Had it! Loved it. Recommend it. It changed my life.’
I give her credit for following her dream and having the courage to go out in public, but can't imagine her looking in the mirror and saying, "yes, this is exactly what I wanted, this is beauty!" Jocelyn Wildenstein must have a great body image, because she obviously does not see what the rest of the world sees when she looks in that mirror and she just keeps getting more and more plastic surgery.
A quick run down for those of you who do not know her:
Jocelyn grew up in a middle class family in Switzerland. There she became a skilled hunter and pilot. She eventually met and married billionaire art collector Alec Wildenstein. Ms. Wildenstein famously embarked on a radical amount of cosmetic procedures after fearing her billionaire art dealer husband would leave her. The socialite has been nicknamed the Bride of Wildenstein and dubbed the world's scariest celebrity by a plastic surgery website.
Bizarrely she based her remodeled look on exotic wild cats, which he loved and even had his own private jungle, as she decided that he might find her more attractive if she became "more feline". The first time Wildenstein saw his newly-sculpted wife, he was said to have screamed in horror, unable to recognize her. It's claimed he said: "She seems to think that you fix a face the same way you fix a house."
After finding her husband in bed with a 19-year-old Russian model, she divorced him and was awarded millions of dollars.
Sad that with all that money should did not seek therapy over a disfigurement, but then again, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Oh I never saw this, but I've seen this woman's photos in the past. Hideous. Makes me wonder what her husband told her when she caught him with the 19 year old? "You say I'm ugly, well I'll show you!" Then she divorced him and used his money to be the ugliest person on the planet. Wow, such imagination from me and I haven't even had my coffee yet!
